Bra fitting help » Seems ok but band doens't feel tight enough.
Curvy Kate » Elegance Plunge Bra (CK1401) » 28FF 28:8
Issue resolved
Thanks much.
Good for my shape. Altering would make cup slightly too small. So not gonna modify.
Will be keeping it though, since it's an almost perfect fit.
Original problem
Like it says in the title. Unfortunately, my BTT is really 25 so it doesn't feel firm enough unless it's at the tightest. Other than that, just want a general check.

I think you would really benefit from using a rixie clip - it clips on the band of your bra and makes your band smaller- they're available off eBay if your in the US. They're pretty cheap, so it would be a good way of making all these 28 bands small enough for you.

It's pretty hard to tell if a bra fits well when the band is the wrong size. It looks okay right now, but I wonder if it would be too small in the cup if the band fit... often, a loose band will make a cup seem looser.

I didn't know that about the band fit affecting cup. Thank you.

The pics where taken on the loosest hooks (except for the band one). Putting it on the tighest hooks there is slight quadding 3-5mm or so.

It looks like a good style for your shape, though... maybe it's worth getting a 28G and altering the band?

Unfortunatly it's a 3 hook bra so Rixies are out the question for now. Other than that does the rest of the fit seem okay?
