I'd like to make a plea to those of you who add bras to the Bratabase. Please, please, *please* add bra measurements to your entry! I'm trying to find a bra that will fit my wide, shallow boobs, and large band size, (somewhere in the nebulous 40:6 range) and it's soooo frustrating to look at the details of a bra and find that those critical cup measurements are missing. It makes it impossible to assess how that bra might fit my needs.
And I have a question. What is the importance of wire length? Why would I want a longer or shorter wire?

I am trying to add all of mine! Not anywhere near your size range, tho - 32J mostly. But I'm also adding pictures - I LOVE the pictures, I love SEEING how different shapes look in the actual bra. And reading real, descriptive reviews. My first few reviews were bad because I didnt realize what kind of information is actually helpful.
I dont know exactly how it relates to the measurements, but I know some ppl find longer wires poke them in the arm pits, and some people complain that shorter wires dont encase their whole breast so it spills out on top (I think esp on the outside)
dbmamaz, I absolutely agree on the photos! Listen, I know how hard it is to take those photos. It takes all I have to take and post bra *and* naked boob photos of myself. I know I'm not the only one with horrid body issues, but I try to allow them as little control as possible over what I do.
If my actions can help someone else gain even just a little more self-acceptance, then it's worth doing.
I know my size range is an outlier, but I also know, from my background in software engineering, that getting enough real data is vital for anything approaching valid statistical analysis.
