ABOUT ME: petite with wide horizontal oval, slightly conical breasts
* average projection
* wide-set (3 fingers width of space between breasts)
* wide roots (extend to the mid-axillary line)
* even horizontal fullness (just barely outer full)
* short root height, average vertical placement
* mix of firm & soft tissue (front molds to shape of bra, sides push wimpy wires away)
* conical shape (but will squish to round)
* full on top (2/4 shape, not even or very full) - BUT functionally even to FOB due to short roots and soft tissue
* petite (5'3") so have narrow frame
* front (anterior) rib flares
FIT
Band:
* length: stays in place with wear
* wings: looks good immediately after scoop & sweep but tissue escapes with movement
Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine.
Straps:
* feel widely placed but are not slipping
* adjust short enough
Cups:
* Wires enclose tissue nicely AT FIRST, but tissue migrates backwards with movement. (Wires can’t keep breast inside cup.)
* Top of cup: smooth line.
* Bottom of cup: wrinkles or gaps (not enough immediate projection at wire), wire pushed down b/c breast looking for space
* Cup apex: not deep enough (breasts being smushed into armpit)
* Side view: flat
* Front view: wide (east-west) – side support sling not effective
* Tail of Spence starts enclosed but escapes with movement. Once escaped, outer edge of cup cuts in.
* Don't be fooled by the stock photos. This fabric is very, very sheer. Everything shows. (This is a pro or a con, depending on your goals.)
ASSESSMENT & PLAN
* Cups not deep enough. Try +1 & +2 cup sizes (same band).
