Matilda is in my opinion Elomis greatest hit. It's their besteller and they make in a bazillion colours. I got the plain black because it was the only one available from a local online shop and I needed it quickly.
I had a few Matildas in my old size 32JJ and they were a good fit although a bit wide and the only plunge that worked for me in that size range. I was surprised that the 32GG also works in my current size! It's actually a good width for my fairly wide root and has a good cup height. The gore is low enough to not pinch my close set boobs. The wires are fairly hard and it needs to be worn in. At first the gore would press into my sternum but it gets better with wear. The fabric is mesh, it's quite thin and feels a bit cheap. The cute embroiderie does elevate it from looking boring and cheap though. I would recommend this bras as it's very widely available, does fit a good range of sizes, is supportive, sturdy and longlasting. It's most likely to work for someone who likes a lower gore but still good support, wider wires, tall cups and overall a sturdy supportive every day bra. If you need more space on top and softer wires, go for the Charley plunge with stretch lace.

  Maybe if you try the bra with an extender it’ll help with the gore pain. Since it looks like the band is pretty tight.

• Ok I gonna try that. I found the band quite stretchy and it's on the tightness level I am used to. So I did not think it's too small.

• Also, you know what helps me. You can manually bend the wires to curve to your rib cage. It’s like “wearing the bra in” to make it more comfortable. I think HerRoom had a video tutorial on how to do it. Watch the first 30 seconds: https://www.herroom.com/how-to-bend-underwires-for-better-fit-video

  It has helped me with slightly too strong gores.
