The grazy things I do to make a bra fit

Hi all, I´m experimenting again... I just love love LOVE my Gorsenia Tequila Sunrise bra, the colour is just gorgeous but unfortunately it didn´t fit right. So I altered the cups. The next problem was that the fabric of the cups, outside and inside, is very rough tulle. It was itchy against my skin and I can tell you it really is uncomfortable when your boobs itch! Even more uncomfortable to try to scratch them at work

So, eventually I really got tired of this and I added a fuchsia coloured soft jersey lining to my bra! I didn´t care to do it very professionally, I wanted to take the bra apart the minimum amount needed. This means I ripped the wire channels off, actually not completely, I left them attached to the center. Then I traced the cup pieces and made a pattern for them, cut the jersey lining and sewed cups, attached the lining to the cups and added the wire channels. I didn´t want to detach the elastics in the armpit area of cups because they already had suffered some stretching when I initially altered the cups. So I just sewed the lining on top of the elastics. It doesn´t look so nice, but it doesn´t itch and scratch anymore!!!

I seriously think it is a bad designing flaw to sew a bra lining out of tulle > I can´t figure out what they´ve been thinking?!! I don´t even have especially delicate skin. I don´t think I´ve ever had this problem before.
