Curvy Kate » Tease Me Padded Bra (SG2001) » 34H 34:11
Issue resolved
Sure is too small! Too bad, that means I am out of range for Curvy Kate padded bras
Original problem
I am new to bratabase, and don't know how to browse properly :/
I have just bought the Tease me and Thrill me in 34H and 36GG (on inner-most hook) - I really like the fit, good lift, firm support, creates good shape etc buuuuut I 'spill' over on both of them

This one is atleast two cup sizes too small.. The bridge (the piece between your boobs) isn't even close to your ribcage and it really should lie flat to give you the most support. My estimation is that you really need something like a 34J in this, which sadly isn't made.
The Showgirl collection from Curvy Kate does however run large in the band and for some small in the cup. What I would suggest first is Rhea from Masquerade. http://bratabase.com/browse/masquerade/rhea-6121/ It has a similar cut, and while it does end at a H-cup this H is very generous. It is however tight in the back so you might want to go up to a 36-band. A 36H is my best quess at the moment for you, maybe a 36GG/34H. http://fullerfigurefullerbust.wordpress.com/2011/10/24/purple-reigns/ might give a better picture of how it looks in your size. This one also has a narrower bridge, which might also suit you better. If you do like it Masquerade also makes quite a lot of similar styles that also could work for you.
If you want more coverage I would suggest looking for the unpadded Cleo bras with a full band. They have a similar shape still, with a lot of lift and roundness, but goes higher up and is more suitable for everyday wear. They are quite generous too, a 34HH/36H is my best bet for you there. In the latest collection you have Alexa and Chloe, that both are even more generous in the cup so you will probably want to size down even more there. Here you can find George: http://bratabase.com/search/?q=george and from there you can browse the siblings.
I cannot really recommend Freya for you as they tend to have too weak wires for the larger cup sizes. The unpadded Curvy Kate really doesn't give the same shape as these either. It might be an idea to try some Panache bras too though.

Oh wow, thank you so much! Great advice! I have now ordered Rhea bra: It seems like a dream-bra for me! I am a reader of the fullerfigurefullerbust, as Georgina and I have very similar measurments and bodytype, so I think there is a good chance that the bra will fit me as well as it has fitted her!
I also got the Cleo Alexa: I have been looking for bras with wider band under the arms, so brilliant advice again! Thank you soooo much!
Another idea is the CH and HP bras from Ewa Michalak. They have a bit different shapes (CH is more forward and deep, HP is more shallow), but both could give you the bra you are loooking for.
