Fit
About me: petite with wide horizontal oval, ... slightly conical breasts
* average projection
* wide-set (3 fingers width of space between breasts)
* very wide roots (extend past 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
Band:
* length: way too big
* wings: too short, boobs escape
* axillary skin spillage
Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine.
Cup:
* Gives breasts an horizontal oval shape.
* Wires wide enough (SO RARE).
* Top of cup smooth on larger breast. Slight wrinkles on smaller breast.
* Bottom of cup wrinkles (not enough projection at the wire).
Straps:
* WAY too far apart, slip
* adjust short enough
Assessment and Plan:
* Band too big.
* Didn't try other sizes, because I tried them in the Tango II (model 3251) which is supposed to be the same cut.
