likesThe 30DD Betsey is so far the best-fitting bra I've tried for my shallow boobs. I measure for a 28 band, but this is a fairly small 30 (though quite stretchy), so it fits well. The cups are ideal for my shape - open on top, with 2 vertical seams.
The 28F Marcie is SO snug in the band that I need an extender, even though its unstretched length is similar to the 30DD Betsey. It also has a bit too much projection near the top, so it wrinkles on me. I'm not sure the Marcie is ideal for boobs as shallow as mine. When I tried 28E, the wires were too short/narrow.
