Strap issues

So Ewa BMs are one of the few bras that fit me well and dont hurt. But it seems like the straps are so wide set?? I need 80Es, even though I'm typically a 34E/32F UK depending on the brand. When I wear a tank top style shirt or dress, the area where the strap attaches to the bra sticks out the side of my top. I know I might be able to sister size to a smaller band but not sure that would change the strap placement?? Or maybe a similar bra with narrower set straps? I'm hesitant to ask for a custom one with straps moved in and end up with sizing issues....

  • Ewa BM’s are also my best fitting style right now. I have the same BM in three sister sizes. I can tell you right now it won’t alleviate the strap issue. I’ve come to terms with it and at this point I just rock the straps out. I now pic a fun contrasting color to peek out or opt for a hue close to the tank I’m wearing. For me I find it easier to find a brand of tank that is just cut wider in the strap area to cover the existing bra straps rather than finding a bra to fit under a tank.

  • @happy2brashop The problem is I love wearing dresses, and I have about 15 high quality dresses cut as tank tops that I cant wear my best fitting bra with. It gets waaayyy too hot to throw on a shrug or jacket or cardigan in the summer, so I cant do that. :( Have you ever tried having them move the straps in? I cant remember how that affects fit....
