Didn't fit

this is part of my remeasuring experiment into new sizes, to see if ive been wearing too small of a band and to large of cups. im getting this model in a few different sizes to compare, though i think this is supposed to run small in the cup so i may have chosen wrong. but, half cups are the shape that has always seemed to fit me best, and my options on amazon prime were limited.

i feel like the band is too large and the cups are too small. for starters, when i put this on backwards or forwards, i can hook it immediately on the tightest setting and it still feels a little bit loose. and then soon as i go to try and put it on frontways, it seems like i have to reeeeally work to scoop myself into the cups, they feel to narrow for my breasts to line up naturally. when i do get into the cups, the band suddenly feels snug, so im suspicious that the band is making up for some boob space. i also appear to be barely contained, and the side of the cups feel uncomfortable, so think the cup as a whole is too small. ive got a 36F on the way just in case im still wrong and i need a 36 band, but im skeptical. **EDIT** comparing them, the wires are only about a quarter inch narrower than the 34F, and the depth is also the same, so im not sure why they feel so much narrower.

the straps on this model i am not a fan of. they have to go to their max adjustment to fit me, and the thin-ness and material of the strap isnt comfy. theyre also wide spaced because of the half cup cut, but i dont know how much that would bother me since i dont intend to wear these past the try on for the review.

appearance wise, i LOVE this bra. the color combo and rose print are so pretty and elegant, the grey is beautiful. i sincerely hope i nail down my size in this and then find it on sale, cause its super gorgeous.
