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: back rides up
* wings: too short, boobs escape
* axillary skin spillage
Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine.
Cups:
* Give a wide, flat, smushed shape.
* Wires too narrow.
* Top of cup smooth (because so much breast tissue is outside the wires).
* Bottom of cup wrinkles.
* Breasts push soft wire down (under apex) and away from body (armpit).
Straps:
* too far apart, slip
* adjust short enough
Appearance under Clothing:
* Seams visible under thin T-shirt.
* Top edge of cups visible under V-neck (with movement only, not at rest).
* Very visible in armholes of sleeveless shirt.
Comfort & Fit Summary
* Band still too big, cups too small. (Tried 34E first, reviewed separately.)
* Try 32F next.
