Good longlines/bustiers/basques/torsolettes in smaller band sizes

I've been looking everywhere for something that has a lower back, is strapless, and doesn't leave that dreaded muffin from ending at the low waist. The dress I'm wanting support for is a mid-back halter with a snug column/straight shape. I have above-hip padding, so something that ends at the hip is ideal. I tried the 32F - Panache ยป Special Occasions Basque (5217) , but he cups ran like a 32H (12-inch depth). It also ended a bit high and created said muffin on me. Any ideas?

I am typically wearing a 30FF in padded Freyas, a 32E/F in unlined Cleos, a 30G in padded Cleos, and a 30FF in Claudette, for reference.

  • Bustiers and such fit VERY MUCH smaller and tighter in the torso, so you can probably fit most 32s and even in some cases might need a 34--which actually puts you in matrix sizes. I'd try a bridal boutique or Amazon.
