Cup fit information
Today I entered my all-new measurements and I'm looking forward to see how the extended measurements will help us users find better-fitting bras. Just wanted to put that out there
Jj, I was wondering if there are any plans for additional boxes to tick when it comes to setting the fit of a bra.
One of the issues I run into constantly is that the armholes of a bra, not the wires, are uncomfortably tall. This usually goes hand in hand with the straps being too wide-set (which you can already tick a box for) for me, or the cups being too tall.
An extreme example for this was the Parfait By Affinitas Charlotte (6901), which was unwearable for me because the armholes cut into my armpits uncomfortably and the cups covered a lot of my chest even where I don't have any breast tissue, but at the same time I was spilling out of the cups in the middle/front.
I don't know how common these issues (armholes and cup height) are, but I wish I could add this information when I set my bra fit.

I second this. The cup height is a big issue for me, but necessarily the arm holes.
I agree that the height of the cup needs to be added to the measurement or as a check mark for fit. For me the Freya Deco (4234) looks great by measurements but the cups are to tall.
