Curvy Kate, you don't know how to bra.
I currently have the 30G and the 30FF in my possession, both NWT. The 30G was just a wee bit too big in the cup, so I listed it and ordered the 30FF.
The 30FF... was also a wee bit too big in the cup.
So, measuring time. I re-measured both bras, just to make sure I wasn't going crazy.
The 30G is 0.5 cm wider but 0.5 cm shallower than the 30FF. And the 30G has a band that is about 3 cm longer than the 30FF when unstretched. (I didn't take stretched measurements.)
In other words, they pretty much have the ... same exact volume, in a different shape, on different length bands.
CURVY KATE, THAT IS NOT HOW SIZES WORK.
I like the appearance and fabric of this bra, but I'm not going to spend hours of my life trying to work the math and trudging back and forth to the post office, abusing my Amazon Prime account, in the hopes of hitting on something approximating 14 cm wide by 26.5 cm deep. It ain't worth it.
(ETA: Sorry, I tried to submit photo proof of the wonky size/scale issues, but Bratabase ate my photos three times, and I gave up.)

I've been wondering if we need to be sending our feedback to the manufacturers rather than just venting here when we see this kind of crazy stuff. Like my bra where the wires go past my arm pit. who has boobs that go past the outside of their arm pits?
