Bra fitting help » Top cutting in of breast
Cleo » Bella Balconnet Bra (7001) » 28GG 28:10
Issue resolved
This bra is too closed on top for my shape
Original problem
I really just want confirmation from others that this bra is too closed on top for me, rather than it being too small. I didn't think I was that FOT, but I don't have this issue with the Marcie in the same size.

Would you say that you have tall breasts? I think some time women with a tall breast may notice something like what you are experiencing. It's not necessarily a full on top or full on bottom, its that your breast base is tall from crease to the top.
Other Cleo bras that you have like the Marcie and the Maddie do not have the sharp curve inward like this bra has. They allow some space for the height of your breasts where this one does not.

helpfulJust chirping in to make sure you're not wearing your bra too low. Can you pull up your bra just high enough that your breasts don't spill out the bottom? You'll get the best support in that position. This often fixes some problems. To be honest, this just looks too deep and too closed on top for you, but I just want to make sure it's not the position you're wearing the bra in. Pulling it up might stop the top edge from digging, and you might find that the bra is just too deep for you.

helpfulYou need to go up a cup size, at least in this particular bra, it might run a bit small in the cup.

helpfulHard to tell. may be too closed, but may run small. It happens that various models or even colour versions differ.

helpfulThe Bella is more closed on top than the classical Marcie cut. I see the Marcie fits you, so it could be just the wrong cut. Maybe something else from the Marcie family would do better?

helpfulI have to agree with a PP. I am thinking you may have a taller breast shape. This cup is not open enough for your breast shape so I think, honestly, that you would do much better in a more open cup. This bra even going up 2 sizes in the cup will probably not work.
Given that the straps are too wide set and the cut is off, I think you should look at different cut that allows for a taller breast shape aka more open cup.

Definitely not too low. Thanks for the suggestion though!
