I'm wearing my normal size in this bra, 28D. I'm shallow with wide roots. I've been looking for a balconette push up for a while because the one I have pokes out above any mid-low cut top. This one is super comfortable and gives my boobs a nice boost! My main complaint with it is that the seam where the cup and straps attach sticks out quite a bit, but you can't see it under a tight tee-shirt so I think it will be fine under most clothes. The straps are also a bit farther apart than I'd like, but they are very soft and don't cut into my armpit so I also don't see them being a problem. I have two other bras by Skarlett Blue in 28D and the fit seems consistent across the brand!

• Where did you find Skarlett Blue in 28 bands? I LOL LOVE Skarlett Blue and cannot seem to find them in 28 bands. Have you requested a fit check for this bra or have you tried the DD? It looks to me that this cup is cutting into your tissue.

• LeProfessor Nordstrom online only, but they have free returns so it works out. This one is from Nordstrom Rack. I haven't tried the DD actually, next time I place an order I'll grab one to test it out! Normally DD cups are too deep for me.

  Ty, I will definitely check out Nordstrom online. I have now completely looked over your all your bras now and definitely think the DD bras fit you better. Although I also read that you say you do not fill the bottom of th e cup, although I see no indentation/wrinkling in the pictures to indicate this. I feel I am quite similar to you in the breasticles area. Although I am sure you are much taller than me. It sort of sucks that with women along our size range generally have to deal with slight fit problems just because of how differently shaped we are compared to most 30+ ribcage. It seems in your case that you do not mind having some cut in/quading at the top. Perhaps you need a bra that is shallow at the bottom with a higher appex and very narrow wires? Although in the pictures it looks like the 28DDs follow your breast root very well. I am not quite as learned as some other women on here, have you thought about posting a fit check? A lot of the women here are very well equipped with knowledge to help

• LeProfessor thanks so much for your detailed response! I have posted a fit check for a few of my bras and I think mostly people agreed on 28D. I should try again next time I get a new bra! I'm 5'6" and yes our size is the worst. Honestly the past few months I've just work pasties every day.

• Harmonious, I have so thought about doing the same thing. But I feel I need some support! Rather it be in the form of a tight cami or one of my sports bras that feel like their squashing me flat...which is what I always wear now. All my pre-BtB sizes ride all the way up my back and I have to constantly pull my books back into the cups!

  LeProfessor I totally get it. I felt weird with the pasties for the first few weeks but then my breasts got more toned and it feels totally normal now. Their shape has even improved from supporting themselves!

  And yes I used to wear 32B and they were THE WORST and I never understood why!
