OK is my to-try list correct now?

I'm making a simple txt file on my computer of all the bras that I've tried and want to try. I've compiled this list with advice and suggestions from previous adventures and fit requests, and added a few models that other people were super happy about and I thought may be a possible fit for me too.

I'd like some feedback on the correctness of this list; are the models (& especially sizes!) plausible ones for me? My boobs need narrow and deep wires, and are full everywhere.


Tried: (fit issues between brackets)
Fantasie
-Cally full cup 32JJ (band measures like 34, cups too small)
-Kara full cup 32K (cups too small, wings just a touch high&pokey)

Elomi
-Caitlyn 34JJ (too large band, too wide, gore too high)

Ewa Michalak
-PL Black 70LL (too small cups, needs second strap)
-PL Stalowka 70M (seems to be correct cups, needs second strap)

Panache
-Harmony 32KK (too wide, too shallow, too high under the arms, very tight band when worn out)

Ulla Dessous
-Elise, Annabelle and Sophie in 75K,75L: band too large, cups much too small (EU size)


To try:
Panache
-Jasmine 34K
-Ariza 34K (violet runs tight band)
-Melody 34K
-Andorra 34K
-Carmel 34K
-Tango???

Fantasie
-Belle 75JJ (could be good, try out at local shop)

Milena largest cup (unknown sizing, though Polish so probably EU)

Royce Impact Free sportbh 32K? <--probably EU sizing so too small then. Are there any K cup sports bras in existence anyway?!?

What I've figured out regarding my size right now: 70M in Ewa PL, the 32KK Panache Harmony was pretty good but totally wrong shape, I probably normally need 34K in Panache?
So to summarize, would those sizes be good for me? And are those fullcups or balconettes or something else? LOL
Thanks so much!

  • t_maia alisa ohmyohmy Vee pretty please? :)

  • petalmoon Freya Active Underwire Sport is now aviable up to K-Cup in basic colors: white, nude and black.
    Impact Free is UK sizing. I have never tried it, but I heard it runs small in both cups & band. raspberryleaf wrote a review on it, maybe she can recommend which size to try.

    On the Panache bras I would say:
    Jasmine & Ariza on top of the list.
    Tango (it's either loved or hated, I'm glad I tried it, since its now one of my most supportive & reliable everyday bras, so I recommend to give it at least a try... and on the positive side, there are tons of older colors for cheap on ebay. I could grab 2 bras for about 4£ each :D If you find it cheap then, why not give it a try. I found the cups true to size - rather a bit generous even)
    Melody: worth trying, since it comes up to KK-cup
    Carmel: I don't know much about this.
    Andorra: stops at J-Cup, you would need to alter a 38J / 40J down to get the cup volume you need (also Andorra fits better 1 cup size up from your usual cup size)
