Bra fitting help » Experiencing breast tissue escape and minor quadboob in 75GG after bending wires
Ewa Michalak » Chp Xoxo » 75GG 34:10
Im not really sure if its a shape mismatch or if the bra is just too small, Ive given up with measuring myself because I seem to be doing it wrong (Ex being I keep measuring myself as being -2in but the bras that were too big on me when I had a bigger measurement now fit a tad small). So far the issues that Im experiencing are:
1. Im not able to get all of my breast tissue into the cups, when I do I get the teeniest amount of quadding
2. Band rides up even on the last row of hooks
3. Breast tissue escapes on the sides by my armpits.The fit used to be a lot worse, before I bent the wires it looked like the bra was too large on me - it looked very full coverage and my right breast didnt completely fill it, once I adjusted theyd slip out again within a matter of minutes of just me sitting lol. Now that isnt as pronounced once I bent the wires in, however its noticeably more painful. I feel like if I tightened the band Id experience more pronounced quadding with it actually being anchored. I feel like this is probably the closest bra that Ive gotten to fitting outside of my Elomi Sachi.

It is gorgeous on you, but you definitely describe a bra that doesn't fit. Ouch. These darned padded models make it difficult to evaluate fit. I just can't see the fit issues through the padding. But, totally trust your observations because you *know* how it feels.

helpfulSo from the issues you described I'd try a few things. First, try the bra on upside down and backwards to see how the band fits. If you can still easily wear it on the tightest hooks, you probably need a 60 band (which would make you go up to the next cup size, an H?? to get the same cup volume you have now). With the quadding you might try going up another cup size, to a 60HH?? Padded cups are tricky. They can seem too big when they are really too small. If changing sizes doesn't work it might be a shape mismatch. I really like the BM from Ewa Michalak, it's a little more forgiving in fit, and very supportive!

helpfulYou can try the same style in this bra in 70hh. 75gg is too small in the cup, too big in the band for you. Perfect style on you. Pretty bra. Every inch is a letter in cup size. Your rib cage measures 31inches. Round up to 32 band. Your bust measures 13 inches. Your correct is 70/32 hh uk. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Love4Pollinators It must've just been an issue with the cups being a smidge too small because I updated my measurements and it got recommended to me again, just in 32J.
