About my shape/fit:
My recommended starting point was 32DD/E or 34D/DD. I teeter on the edge of both band size and cup size, depending on time of the month, brand, etc. I would describe my shape as horizontally center full, slightly wide set, lots of soft tissue from weight loss. I think I’m even fullness but functionally full on bottom. I have immediate projection that I need to accommodate, but overall I seem to be fairly shallow-average in terms of projection.
Currently I’m trying to find more about my root width and height through trial and error. As of now I would say short-average height and average width.
For the most part, 32DD/34D fits me best, but some brands and styles I fit 32E better. So I always try to order both sizes when I can.
Panache Envy:
I purchased the envy in 32DD and 32E. The 32DD was closest to my size, but it seems to be a shape mismatch - too narrow and too projected for my breasts. See my review [32DD - Panache » Envy Balconnet Bra (7285)] for more on the envy one cup down. I took more notes on the 32DD since it was a closer fit.
On the 32E, the wires were a little too wide, and the cups were too big. The gore was tall and digging into the center of my sternum. Wrinkling on top, bottom, sides. I wish this in 32DD worked for me!
