Bra fitting help » Bra fit changes as it's worn and doesn't seem right
Victoria's Secret » Uplift Semi Demi Bra (315-758) » 32D 32:4
Issue resolved
Returned bra since I didn't like it's fit
Original problem
When first swoop and scoop I have quadboob on the right breast in the center. After a minute or 2 everything seems to safe and vanish. I am also trying to determine how to best use my time and money in looking for a better bra.

This is too shallow in the center near the gore. I hypothesize this is very typical for VS bras.
Take a look at this link (NSFW): http://thepetitecollegiate.com/2016/04/21/photo-glossary-bra-fitting-and-breast-shape/
Before I make recommendations, let me know what you can determine about your breast shape after looking at the link above. And, help me understand what type of bra you hope to find (lined, unlined, padded). Thanks!

I know it's been a while, but I finally had time to take a serious look and read through of the article. I think I have semi-wide set, wide and short rooted breasts with a tendency towards full on bottom. My nipples and breasts are splayed and I am center full. My breasts are very very soft and pendulous, so her test for finding the side edge of breast tissue did nothing for me. But when I was nursing and full I could feel the milk pressure well onto my side, so I think my tissue is wide set. I always have gapping by my straps even when the bra is too small

helpfulI recommend finding a professional fitter. I have problems with my VS bras too in the same size but found an awesome bra boutique where I live and I actually measure a 28F. I ended up going with 30DD/E and that size just works better. It was very pricey but once you find your true size and know your shape and what style works best for you, you can find good deals on amazon.I guess I should have read your story before posting but I did A LOT of research online and I learned a lot about my breasts. Get a flexible measuring tape and take your measurements read whatever you can find about bra sizing and breast shapes and once you're confident in what you think you need and want in a bra look on amazon you can find good prices and some even have free shipping. The first bra I ordered was like 27 bucks with no shipping cost

I wish there was a place closer to get fitted, but as far as I can tell the closest place is 3 hours away which is just not doable. I have a flexible measuring tape, and I have really really soft breasts that have almost no shape of their own which has been my biggest problem.

I've got soft and wide set breast and I found the ciao bella worked well. Except I have broad shoulders so a balcony may not work for you cause the straps are out wide. But I think maybe a soft demi cup with vertical seems will help give you some shape and comfort. Idk if you have tried the VS body by Victoria demi bras yet since that seems to be your only option. they are my fave from there. Those tshirt bras are too stiff for soft tissue and come too high up for a demi bra

I have one of the body by Victoria bras (it's not the Demi) and I really like it. Its some version of a push-up bra and I just feel sexy and shapely in it. I get a little worried about falling out of Demi cups because I am very center full

Awesome, well there ya go. I really love mine too. I just wish VS made smaller bands. Their body collection is my fave. Not too many people like VS secret because of their fitting style and small selection of sizes but they are really comfy bras. Also much more affordable. I'm a stuck with what ya know person. Lol

helpfulIn your size you have a lot of high quality discount bras available, whether they are second hand on bra swap websites or on here, or new on Amazon or through a variety of sellers.
If this bra is comfortable to you over the day there's no reason why you can't wear it as much as you want. It looks like a good enough fit, although certainly there are problems, such as the narrow wires and shallow center.

Thank you for your input. I've been wearing sports bras and nursing bras for over a year and it's nice to hear that the brand/size isnt as important as comfort and a good fit. I'm trying to find something that looks good and feels good too. Since I stopped nursing and I have saggy soft breasts now its been hard to find something that helps me feel confident

Love4Pollinators thank you, that was very helpful. I have extremely soft breasts and don't know what to do with them. I had very firm small breasts before I head a baby and breastfed and so having information like the link you provided is very helpful to figuring things out
