My recommended/calculated size is UK 28E (28"/27"/26" underbust, 32.5"/34.5"/33" bust). I would describe my shape as being FOB, projected, tall roots, very close-set, splayed roots/east-west appearance.

I got this 30D Real Sunnie Lace Full Coverage Lightly Lined bra at the very, very beginning of my ABTF journey. It's one cup size down from my 30DD sister size; one, because I had the sticker shock of "oh, I definitely cannot be that size the calculator told me!" and two, Aerie only goes up to a D in the 30 bands (and 30 is only available for select styles).

The shape of this molded T-shirt bra is definitely too shallow for my projection. With this bra, I get quadding at the top, while the bottom is oddly empty. The wire also sits a good distance underneath my IMF. The gore is also too wide, but because it is a short gore in more of a plunge style, it doesn't particularly cut into my breast tissue (particularly because the wire slips down haha). It just would fit much better (and give me the cleave I know I am capable of!!) if the gore was narrower.

In addition, I feel like Aerie's bands run small when you first get them, but they stretch out rather quickly, so that's something to be wary of.

While this does not fit me (particularly the shape), I do really love the price point, visual appearance, and comfortableness of this bra; it would be a cute everyday bra, and the Meadow Bound color and the lace are very pretty.
