I used to wear a smaller size of this bra and it was my favorite. But now that I'm a much larger size, it fits all wrong. I was trying to see if I could sister size the bra from 38G/GG UK/US 38I and it did not work at all. I noticed that there is a lot of extra fabric between the wing and side boning on this bra compared to my old 40DDD bra. The old bra was roughly 2 inches long from wing to side boning (at the bottom). Now it is 3 inches. The cups are much higher and the wire is really long (15 ... inches), which means the bra wire cuts into my arm. I do remember having to break in my old bra when I first got sized as 40DDD as it also poked a little until I broke it in, but I really don't like the changes made to the larger size of this bra. I'm considering modifying it rather than throwing it out.

It might not be the bra's fault since this is technically not my true size, but the wire seems extra long even factoring in the size difference, so I'll mention that in case others also have issues with the underwire poking their arm.
