Why does the wire poke my arm?
Sorry, I don't have any pictures so you'll have to guess. But I'd like to know some common reasons for wire poking the underside of arms when wearing a bra. Too small cups? Too shallow? Too small overall? This has happened with three different Elomi bras and I'd like to at least have some guesses as to why before I order yet another bra that's not going to fit. I'm 40K, or thereabouts.

One of the reasons why I prefer Bravissimo bras is their wires on the side end about an inch below the seam and thus not exerting as much pressure on the side the way all of my previous Panache bras did. So yes, the cups may be too small or shallow etc. but it may also be a design issue.
If you choose to experiment with Bravissimo, be aware that some models will have different wire widths depending on color. Their Jenna bra is one such example and there are others. I have the Jenna in both regular and narrow wires and can feel the wire on the side more on the narrow wired bra but it doesn't bother me at all and is certainly nowhere near.as bad as Panache.
