Tried on my sister's bra for the hell of it. She's had kids and nursed so her boobs are much bigger than mine. I was surprised that I was able to fill the cup to an extent. The top of the cup is flush, but there is vertical tension from where there isn't any fullness. I need maybe a cup or two down.
Compared to my Wacoal Retro Chic 38E, the underworld are JUST what I need, most comfortable, extending diagonally out under my armpits. Absolutely zero irration on that front. I'll keep Elomi in mind for their under wires.
Since the bra is used, the band is a little loose.
What continues to bother me on the bras I've tried is a combination of the wings being too high, the apex too wide, and the straps too wide set. This makes the straps dig into my armpits and the sides come up to about 2" from my armpit crease. Very uncomfortable.
Unlike Wacoal Retro Chic 38E, the band/cups don't dig into my high belly. Very comfortable. I don't know if that's because the band is stretched or not, but I like it.
I think I will try a smaller cup in the same style.
