This is my best fit, by far. I think I might better sister size to 32G for the band, but I’m worried that would pull on the wires and make them wider. That’s not an error on my stretched band measurement- it legitimately can stretch to 120cm, it’s extremely stretchy.
This bra is bandless, seamless, unlined, and the cups are stretchy- it’s got some “downward” projection, but not enough to look droopy, just a very natural shape. It allows my breasts to have some of their natural side projection, but pulls them much more front and center, and hold them at “perky” attention all day. This is ... the only bra that I have gotten to sit correctly in my IMF without the wires literally jamming into my armpits- I’ve got short roots that are placed high on my chest, but with lots of pendulous projection.
This bra is a whole lot of “almosts” for me. The wire is a great length, but the wing continues higher than the wire, and the part above the wire extends not just up, but back, and rubs under my arm. The regular glossies aren’t stretchy enough, and this lace is- but I don’t love the texture of the lace. This has a passable amount of projection , but I could do with a tiny dab more at the center- but the wires could not be wider at all, so I can’t size up.
The cup is actually more like 14.5cm without the extra wire channel/wing, which turns/rolls down on me. The wing without that extra on top would be 9cm. That would be absolutely perfect. I’m considering alterations.
The gore would be better if it was 1cm wider (total) on the top, but with the distance taken from the inside of the wires, not in addition to them. It rides down and starts hurting in the front (center of wire) because it’s too tall under the arm, but I’ve been wearing it every day, because it’s the only underwire bra I’ve tried so far that fits even passably.
It’s also one of the few that matches my aesthetic- well, almost (almost is a trend here obviously, haha). The regular glossies are much more my taste, I’m “meh” about the lace, but it’s understated, and I don’t totally hate it. I wish more than anything that it was a plain cotton like fabric.
