Didn't fit

This is a wide bra-6.6". But, it contains all of my breast tissue, doesn't cause my lymph nodes to scream, and holds all of my breast tissue in its cradle. Most often, my side tissue is uncomfortably bisected by a wire, but this 6.6" wire has encapsulated all my side tissue. Although the Gorsenia half cup I recently tried had excellent immediate projection, this design is wide and shallow. There is a Gorsenia bra for everyone https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />

Note for short-waisted Bratabase users: I'm not wide rooted. However, wing heights taller than 3.25" gouge breast tissue that resides in my armpit. If the cup width is narrow and the wings taller than 3.25", my underarm tissue and perhaps lymph nodes are bisected. I have not yet found a bra with short enough, narrow wires to prevent this bisection. So, wider wires are fitting me better.

The firm band also helps keep my side tissue forward. This band provides great support. The mesh is not as fine as Comexim's wing mesh, but it remains comfortable. The wings are one layer of black mesh.

Fabrics are not as fine/soft as Comexim and Ewa Michalak, and the fabrics feel like they have a higher plastic content. However, the seams are nearly invisible under thin knits. Advantage Gorsenia.

Finally, the base of the gore was too wide. After a few minutes, the wire was impressioned along my most center-full breast. This didn't happen when I wore the Gorsenia half cup. So, the half cup is a better style for me.

    Great review...thank you! I like this brand too because their soft cups are gorgeous but the fit is tricky...one downfall. Plus the support is not quite the same as other brands. Still tend toward them for their pretty fabrics on the soft cups though :)

    If you overlapped the wires at the gore, would this solve your problem. You've done it before. :)

    Wanabee It is possible :-) There are (gulp) several other Goirsenia models arriving soon. I'll pick a few to modify after they all arrive.

    The band is tight enough, I'll take an extender with the alteration. :-)

  • Ok; yes, I hadn't thought about the alteration reducing the size of the band.
