Bra fitting help » Why Does This Fit Me?
Pour Moi » Bliss Padded Bra (5300) » 32F 32:7
Issue resolved
Thanks for everyone's help
Original problem
I never expected this bra to work so well for me, but it's been the only bra that fits me for a while and it fits like a glove! It does run small, its 32F but more of a 30F. I was wondering what about this bra works for me so I could look for others that are similar.

helpfulI'd take a look at the measurements of the bra and keep them in mind. Particularly the cup width, cup depth, and wire length but really everything. Then you'll know roughly what kind of wires you need, and how deep a cup, how to make sure they aren't going to poke you in the armpit, etc for next time. Just don't stray too far from those measurements next time. This bra just seems right for your size and shape to me. Congrats
I hope it's comfy. Updated on February 10, 2014 Flag this

Alternatively, you can select this bra in your size (from My Bras) and hit Compare and compare to whatever bra you're looking at. I also agree that searching by measurements isn't the best unless you have an extreme need in one measurement or another but I don't think you will have that problem.

helpfulUnfortunately I don't know much about Pour Moi? But it looks great! I would call it a half cup with medium wires that are short on the sides. Perhaps other padded Pour Moi? will work well? Your shape might also work well with the Cleo Marcie in 32E or 30F.

helpfulIf you'd like another recommendation for a similarly-shaped bra, I bet you'd like Tutti Rouge Liliana Bra (TU100) !

Everything she said :) Although there's a search function here on Bratabase that allows you to search for bras by measurements, I've found that it's not very good at detecting bras that have those measurements. It will probably tell you there's only a few options, but really, search around the site a little and you'll find that there are plenty more. A wise thing to do would be looking at bras you'd like to try (bras you think look nice) and then looking at the measurements for all the sizes listed there. Have a piece of paper or something with the measurements of THIS particular bra at hand so that you can easily compare. If the measurements are off by more than 0.5 cm, I've found that it throws off the sense of similarity quite a bit.
