I want to help out my friend....
...... And her boobs are very different from mine. So I'm coming here in hopes that you can offer some advice.
I had her try on some of my bras which are too small on the cup and too big in the band for me, but mostly just the wrong shape for me. She tried on some 32GG curvy kate unpadded bras which fit way better than any of her own bras. She had a tacking gore and not really quadboob (maybe slightly on her larger breast) and the bands fit well. The wires seemed okay, though slightly wide.
However, she gets massive orange in a glass effect (I think). She gets folding in the bottom of the cup and the wire can't sit against the fold under her breasts. I'm assuming she's very full on bottom? She told me that she has neve ever been able to find a bra that doesn't do that. It's not that the cup collapses, more that her breasts seem to fold inside the cup and the wire can't sit along the crease.
I never have this problem, so I'm unsure of exactly what causes it, and which bras I can recommend her.
The curvy Kate's didnt give her a pointy shape like they do to me, but they gave more of a natural shape. They seemed supportive, but not supportive enough. Her boobs don't fall out or anything, but they look "soft". I think she needs a more firm cup.
She also tried on the 32GG deco which also folded a lot at the bottom.

Could she have soft tissue and need a larger cup or a differently shaped one? I found I folded in Cleo Lucy even though everything else seemed good. So, can she try Fantasie? (I also got orange-in-glass in Chantelle so don't try that next). I can't remember Freya--didn't own one long enough to recall.
Panache Jasmine? Freya unpadded balcony plunges? I am very FOB and rarely find bras with enough projection at the bottom of the cup, but both of these styles seem to work for me. The wires may be a tad narrow if CK fit her, though...
