So I'm in a dilemma-do I return the 30E @Cleo Neve Plunge 7196 in coral that visually looks like full coverage but fits my larger girl like a dream, or return the 30DD @Cleo Neve Plunge because it visually looks like a plunge but actually is too small?
30E will need the straps brought in (I'm 5'2", size small top). 30E cup feels right in the wire but gaps with movement at the top like a full coverage, 30DD cup feels a little tight in the wire(flared ribs), but the cup acts like a proper molded cup plunge with little gapping at the top with movement. I'll need a cutlet for leftie in 30E. The cups I will reinforce with thread to keep them from flipping out in both. 30DD cup height is 5 1/2", 30E cup height is 6". This is my 3rd bra that I think meets the terms fitting which is why I'm stumped.

  • Well if you want both a plunge and a full coverage bra, there's nothing wrong with keeping both! However, the rule of thumb is to fit your larger breast, so if you choose one, I'd choose the E.

  • Hmmmm, so I spent the day in the 30DD and the red marks match my roots underneath and on the outside (plunge so no marks on the insides). So the 30E would be too wide? Is there such a thing as too wide wires? And would 1/2" (or so) be considered too wide? 30DD quadboobs in the center for sure....
