Fit

About me: petite with wide horizontal oval, slightly conical breasts
* average projection
* wide-set (3 fingers width of space between breasts)
* very wide roots (extend past the mid-axillary line)
* even horizontal fullness (just barely outer full)
* short root height, average vertical placement
* mix of firm & soft tissue (front molds to shape of bra, sides push wimpy wires away)
* conical shape (but will squish to round)
* full on top (2/4 shape, not even or very full) - BUT functionally even to FOB due to short roots and soft tissue
* petite (5'3") so have narrow frame
* front (anterior) rib flares

Band:
* length: band rides up
* wings: height good
* no axillary skin spillage

Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine.

Cup:
* Gives breasts a projected shape.
* Wires wide enough (SO RARE).
* Top of cup gaps.
* Bottom of cup filled.
* Cuts into tail of Spence.

Straps:
* too far apart, slip
* adjust short enough

Assessment and Plan:
* Band too big, cups too projected, cuts into tail of Spence.
* Already tried 32E (reviewed separately). Spoiler: too shallow, still cuts into tail of Spence.
* Shape mis-match. Try other styles.
