This is the first bra I've tried that fits! I tried it in a 44GG first and found the band to very, very tight, even though I've been wearing 44s for years and never had a problem with the band riding up (it's my cup size that has been too small, I appear to have gotten the band size right somehow.) I also was getting what I think was some wire distortion that was causing empty space at the bottom of the cup, but everything else seemed to fit well and I liked the height of the sides, so I ordered it in the 46G and it has ... completely fixed that problem. I have close-set breasts and the gore is pretty tall (though narrow) on this, so the very top of it rests in a not so great spot where my breasts meet, but since everything else is great I'm calling it a win. I'll try bending the wires out at the top a tiny bit, I think.
Update: After wearing this for several days, the band has stretched out a lot and I find myself wishing I'd stuck with the 44. I've altered the band to make it shorter and moved the wires into the extra channel room on the outside of the cup and put a few stitches at the top of the wires in the gore to keep them there, and the whole thing fits better now.
