Non-padded bras for narrow breasts
I would really like to find some non-padded bras that will work for me. I've tried on quite a few and I've had a lot of problems.
1. Like most padded bras, the cups are often too shallow at the bottom, so the wires sit too low or the cup folds over and my boobs sag.
2. The straps are set too far apart. I don't really have a problem with them falling off, but when the straps are attached above my armpit instead of above my breast, tightening them does little or nothing to perk me up.
3. If I do find a shape that accommodates my lower fullness and I don't quadraboob, the cup ends up being way too wide.
The Cleo Lucy in 32H was close to fitting, but I had about an inch of empty cup space under my arm and the band was a little too big. I got the Curvy Kate Angel in 28H for dirt cheap and the wire fits almost perfectly, but I need to use and extender and I quadraboob quite a bit. In larger cup sizes the cup gets wider, so that style isn't a viable option. My root measures 5.5 inches wide, so cup widths between 5.5 and 6 usually work. My best fit tends to be around a 30H, any suggestions for styles to try?

i think that Cleo Meg might work - i have a 30GG and the wire is only 14.5cm wide, about 5.7inches? It is my best fitting non-comexim bra! The cleo Alexa is also around the same size. Might be worth trying?
Thanks! I've seen that on sale recently too.
