So, I initially thought this bra fit really well, almost perfect.
Well, I wore it for several hours - and the issues kept cropping up.
Firstly, the band is tight - yet it creeps up in the middle to make a reverse U shape. It’s tight though so it digs in under my breasts. My best guess is that the wires are too flexible, so they don’t support the construction, which leads to the straps having to hold up my breasts, thus putting a large strain on the band in the back. I’ve tried this bra with a looser band, but it simply gives the same issues, just even ... worse upwards creep in the back.
Compared to my Freya bras, the wires are just useless - I’m currently trying out a Freya Offbeat (75J/34GG) and the wires are much stiffer and supportive.
I wonder if I could replace the wire in this Elomi Morgan with my worn out Freya Viva ones (the bra size in those is 32GG though)?
In conclusion, I will be returning this Elomi Morgan, as the bra’s wires can’t hold up my breasts without pulling very badly on the shoulder straps.

Did you do a band test. (Putting bra on back to front, upside down, under bust. Band should only be able to be moved/stretched bout an inch and no more then an inch and a half. I am over a K cup and even squeezing into a K I don't get this issue on the shoulders. Straps appear to be done up too tight. I wonder if you going up a cup would help. The wires curve further back at the back under my armpit on this one.
