This bra runs very small. The brand Boux Avenue does tend to run small, in my experience, but this bra, the 30E - Boux Avenue » Phoebe Balconette Bra (101639) is just ridiculous. I have always experienced bras with a lot of padding being too small for me in the cups even when I go several cup sizes up but this bra is way too small everywhere, except the straps. Well it is a halter so its not exactly straps but the halter neck part is too long and the neck doesn't tighten small enough. It is a very cute bra, just definitely much smaller than what it says it is.

  Yeeep, my experience with them too! They can run up to 2 cup sizes too small, and that's just in our size range! Can't imagine how far off it is in larger cup sizes haha. Plus, I've tried the Chloe and Lizzie balconettes and they're crazy shallow in the bottom half while being widly open on top. Can't imagine the breast shape it would fit!
  Then again... I have another balconette from them, the Myah, and it was a part of the "full support" line and it ran HUGE in the cups and super deep and round in shape.
  All balconettes were 30E but very different from one another, and even different from the 30E Chloe plunge.
  I guess Boux Avenue is just all over the place?
  Maybe try a Chloe plunge, as there's more info for them on Bratabase, and good luck!
