Where wires dig

I've mostly figured out what size bras I like to buy, but I consistently have a problem with the wires digging in at the bottom of the curve, underneath each breast, rather than poking at the side or the gore like I hear from most people. While it does encourage good posture I'd love to know a way around it, if there is one. Thoughts?

  • Often its because of a fit issue, like the cup is not deep enough or the wires are too narrow, so your breast cant get to the bottom of the cup and it gets pushed down too far. But also sometimes you can bend the wire so its more comfortable.

  • This seems to happen equally with bras that seem deep/projected as with shallower ones (though I'll admit I prefer the projected ones, for many reasons). I've also tried bending the wires with little success. Either I'm not bending them enough or that's not the problem.

    As for the width of the wires...they seem to end in a good place to me, but I'm not an expert.
