Bra fitting help » Small gap in the top part of the cups, discomfort under the armpits
Ewa Michalak » Chp Elegance (665) » 70GG 32:10
I had come to the conclusion that my size is 30H/HH. But, i decided to try with 32 band because: 1). I had already proved 30 band in Curvy Kate and this had been very short 2). I read that Ewa Michalak makes shorts bands.
Therefore, i had to decide between a size 32GG or 32H.
I chose to buy in 32GG on recommendation of a merchant of Amazon and of one of the members of Bratabase. Also, i prefer that cup feels
tight (instead of a big cup).
I would like to know its opinions. Is my size 32GG or i should go for one more band's size, 34GG or 34G? Or to reduce the cup, perhaps, 32G or, even, 34FF?
At least, in this brand, Ewa Michalak. I don't know how its measurements will be with regard to other brands.
I am surprised because i supposed, in accordance with my measurements, that the cup GG was going tight. The form of my breasts: does it influence?
The problems that i see are the following. Analyze the photos and help me!!! Am i exaggerated?
*In frontal sight, the straps don't go rights, go away towards the interior in the top part.
*If the bra is not placed correctly, the cups also escape towards the interior and, then, a small wrinkle appears in the top part. The wrinkle is small, there is no space for the minor of the fingers.
*My breast go away towards the sides. With a correct collation of the bra, that is to say, if i place all breast tissue of the exterior sides inside the cup, the small wrinkles disappear.
*I am not full-on-bottom. In the exterior low part of the breast, below of the armpits, i can't quite fill the cup. The push-up pads helpme in that and it gives him an appropriate form and the problem disappear.
I believe that the cup, perhaps, should be a little more wide (i mean that the straps should be born close to the armpit) and the wing should be higher to contain the breast that escapes (underwire length short on the side) and push it towards the neckline for a better projection and raising.

helpfulYour translater is not working very well. This is hard to understand.
It looks like this bra strap runs tight, as some Ewa Michalaks do. this can stretch the cup and make its shape wrong. Try using an extender and see if it fits better.
also it looks like the band is too high in the back, like you tightened the straps too much. Make sure the band goes straight around.
I am not familiar with this model's shape because it does not come in my size

I haven't received my Chp yet, but in theory Chp is a bit of a marriage between the Ch (half-cup) and Pl (plunge). The Chp is supposed to have more immediate projection than a Pl, but less than a Ch, I think?
I agree with other commentators that you may want to try a 75 in this bra; since your loose ribcage measurement is 32, you'll probably feel a bit suffocated by bras that only stretch to ~30.
To quote something I was recently told by a fitter, the small gap you show when you pull the cup back might be a good thing. "I like to see a bit of room so that bras will still fit on 'big boob' days."
BUT.
You mention that you don't feel like you're getting enough support. And the straps are already quite far out on you. :\

helpfulGoing off the measurements it looks like you need a longer band, but your cup is the right size. Because the bra measurements say the band is stretched to it's fullest when it fits your rib cadge the tightest. A band that is overly tight will pull the under wire out of shape.

helpfulI think it's normal to have to scoop and swoop the side-boob into the cups. Does it stay put after you do this?
I agree that it looks like the back of the bra is too high. If you can place the back lower, it might feel less tight. Also the physics of the bra will place your breasts higher when the back is lower.
Placing the back lower might help it feel less tight, but you might need to try an extender.
The shoulder straps concern me a little. You mention that they don't adjust long enough. You might need more length in order to achieve a lower placement of the back.
