Hi! I recently bought the Flirtelle Spiro Plunge and the Curvy Kate Princess Plunge in 34G. To be honest these are so similar that they're basically clones. I will write a review on both with further wear. I have found the bottom of the cup has a lot of wrinkling, but it fits pretty great elsewhere. Comfy wire width although I would prefer a hair narrower. I feel they both anticipate more bottom projection than I have, and that most of my projection is at the nipple. My previous best fit was Cleo Marcie but I found it too narrow and I found the gore super painful even with bending it outwards. Marcie was a wonderful perfect fit in the cup though! Does anyone have any suggestions?

Well, Ewa Michalak is pretty popular here! (and one of the few that fit me, so IDK what to recommend other than that)
If Cleo Marcie was too narrow for you then you won’t like Ewa Michalak (or Polish brands in general) as they are known for their narrow wires. But Ewa does tend to have more projection.
Cleo, a sub brand of Panache, uses those Painful Panache heavy wires. They are painful in general, so you are not alone with that. (Sorry)
The wrinkling at the base of the cup while the rest of the cup fits is usually due to there not being enough immediate projection in the bra structure. This is common and many of us don’t view this as an issue. As long as it’s comfortable and supportive, minor fit issues are just not that important. So if this is your only issue with the Flirtelle Spiro Plunge and Curvy Kate Princess Plunge bras, then I think you’re doing great!
So are you looking for suggestions on other brands/styles, or for bras similar to the two?
