Hello . After a lot fitting (both in store and on my own ) and plenty of online research , I think I have a decent idea of the type of breasts I have. I have been struggling with the fit for quite sometime. I have soft, close set, pendulous wide rooted breasts. I guess that makes me the exception to the rule since I'm wide rooted and NOT shallow. I guess if you have pendulous breasts you can't be called shallow ? I also have a narrow torso and the breasts sit somewhat high. Usually bras come up too high in my armpit and irritate my underarms, or they don't tack, or there is a huge gap at the bottom due to the wire being too 'U' shaped and poking in the clevage and underarm.Anyway, after several rounds of amazon orders, I found elomi under wires to be really comfortable. They do the most justice to my wide root and they are also kinda bendy which works great for me. The elomi tia was the one I tried.. I need to size down though because the cup is big. I tried on 32 gg which is the smallest size they have. I think I need a 30 gg or 30 g (u.k) which is a band size they don't carry. I am already in the tightest hook which is just perfect for now. Are their any other bra brands or bras similar to elomi in 30 g? I am at a loss here . Please help.

  • Have you tried a search by measurements? It's not really possible to recommend a bra or brand that is "similar to" another one without knowing exactly how wide, what shape, etc. but if you have figured out the cup width and depth you require, that will enable you to search for bras that meet your needs.

  • Well, there are some other brands that have softer, more flexible wires. Not panache!! but i wonder if there are any curvy kate or fantasie that woudl work?
