Bras for full on bottom, narrow boobs?
Hey ladies, long time no see. I've always had a persistent problem of being too narrow and full on bottom in the cups, resulting in orange-in-a-glass and gaping/wrinkly top panels. I'm sort of starting to lose hope that unpadded bras will never work for me.
I'd had luck with EM CHP's and PL's (I actually have a Gazetta and Marcepan on my way right now-squee!). The only unpadded bra that had moderate success are the Miss Mandalay Paiges; the depth is good, but unfortunately I'm a bit too shallow at the top and yet again, orange in a glass strikes again!
I've been thinking of the Cleo Lucys, but I'm a bit wary of the not-so-narrow wires.

I've had decent luck with Claudette Dessous but the band runs loose, so it would have to be modified just by looking at your normal sizes. When I went to Nordstrom, I must say, I looked excellent in the Fantasie Lois Side Support Bra (2972) in 32F which is a size down from what I wear in Claudette. Unfortunately that also doesn't come in a 28 band but it runs tight. Your described shape is also typical Freya unpadded shape, particularly the Freya Arabella (5721) .
I think my shape is similar to yours. The Panache Andorra full cup matches me pretty well. The lace is stretchy enough to actually really not gap *at all* - it is amazing.
I tried on a Fantasie Rebecca (which is listed as being the same cut as the Fantasie Lois mentioned above). It fit beautifully, but I did not like the idea of altering a band with that much trim and the 30 band was definitely too big for me.
I also have a Freya Antoinette which works really well, so I second the suggestion for unpadded Freyas.
