An attempt to explain so called "breast migration"
Disclaimer: This is a hypothesis. Not science and I don't claim any authority what so ever, and it's also just an attempt, not a full explanation.
Last year when I started bra fitting I did believe in the so called "breast migration". Gradually these past few months I've become more and more reluctant to that theory. But since obviously somethings happens in bras I would say the most common thing is this: http://braologie.tumblr.com/post/47445249287/for-smaller-breasted-women-wheres-all-the-breast
When breast tissue concentrates this happens; http://www.bratabase.com/profile/3rx/adventures/2270/ You start to quadboob. And you do that because a bra concentrate fat into one piece. Some even needs smaller cups with narrower wires when that happens, not a bigger bra all over because with shallow boobs what's in the cups can also be bones and muscles and extra fat a little here and there.
This is also why I think boobs suddenly might feel firmer. The more concentrated they are the closer they are to that glandular core inside them, right? And so they feel firmer, and when taken out of a bra looks bigger.
My boobs does not act soft in a 32G - Freya » Deco Honey (1254) but they do act soft in 36FF - Elomi » Victoria Bandless Bra (8150). Deco concentrates fat to the middle while Victoria spreads it all over and simply let my boobs slump out as far away as they can get from my body.
Do I then believe that a too small bra pushes boobs away? Actually I find that less logic than the opposite. I actually find that more natural than the concentration of fat that bras does. When else do we concentrate fat into one piece? When else do we think fat concentration is pretty and desirable?
So what I am to suggest is that bras shapes the boobs, according to the bra shape. If there is anything that can be shaped. And that it is fat concentration that makes our boobs appear bigger just as we appear fatter when we lean forward and our stomach fat curls into rolls. Because then our fat is in one piece instead of spread all over.
I believe hence that bras make boobs appear bigger in bras and the more we wear bras the more consistent the bra shape is when taking the bra off. And since most of those that experience breast migration has worn their bras thoroughly there is no wonder they need to size up the most.

I agree that a good bra changes the breasts. In my case my too small cups made the boobs hurt. Doubling the volume of the cups made it stop and gave my boobs room to reshape. There's nothing magical about that.
As for the medical aspects and if back fat is boob or fat pushed away by the migrated EDIT boob, it's kind of irrelevant to me. The term migration has its purpose. It describes something a lot of us experience and need a word for; how the breasts change in a better bra.
I was actually just drawing a pic of how my shallow boobs need to encapsulate my ribs to reach the back of my boobs to understand it better. It seems like a smaller cup would give more support, but is that possible without cutting into breast tissue? This might be OT though.
Interesting points but how do you explain minimizers?
