Bra fitting help » Slight Quad Boob
Parfait By Affinitas » Charlotte Padded Bra (6901) » 40G 40:9
Issue resolved
I will buy a cup size larger.
Original problem
It fits but my larger side has a bit of quad boob. Would you live with it? It could be why the gore isn't fully tacking at the top end. A larger cup may be too large for my smaller side. What to do....

You could try one cup size up and see if the gore tacks and quad goes away, but I think you might need a bra with more projection at the center. I have heard the new floral version of this bra has an improved fit with more projection.

I LOVE this bra mainly for the side support. So many bras I just puddle out the sides. But I am splayed so we have opposite problems. Agree one size larger may help. Let us know how it goes!

Ok, how is this a fitting request with no measurements? I didnt think you could do that?
anyways, usually you try to fit your larger boob, not your smaller one. Use an insert if you have to, on the smaller side. But if the quadding doesnt show through a shirt, I usually let it go. OTOH, I find that bras that ALMOST fit usually slide down while I'm wearing them because my mighty boobs beat them down, so I end up quadding more throughout the day . . . and once they start climbing out, its hard to get them back in.
It does look like its too shallow at the bottom and their might be extra room at the outside. You could try grabbing the cup by the top and trying to shake your boob down in to the bottom of the cup, and you can try my reverse-scoop . . go in from the outside of the cup and pull your boobs towards your armpits. If there is extra room there, it can relieve center quadding. but it looks like your bigger boob has an even narrower root than the smaller one, maybe?

helpfulThank you dbmamaz ! I just added the measurement view...makes sense to do that so it is on now.
I will try the reverse scoop and see. I am always torn on what to fit as my larger side can be a cup larger. Cookie idea is a good one too.
Appreciate the help! I may just be trying to fit myself in as I like the bra and hate exchanging!

Thank you wild_muses ! Buying another bra is not a bad idea at all! The cups really are a bit flatter in construction with this bra.
