Bra fitting help » Taking the plunge
Lepel » Fiore Plunge Bra (93200) » 30E 30:6
Issue resolved
Keeping it as first properly fit bra.
Original problem
Second round of bra fittings, this one seems to fit better than any others I've tried. Last round was 30DD balconets and those were getting too small in the cup. I decided to go up a cup size in the plunges, but according to the numbers the wires "should" be wider than my root. However, after wearing for a day, my red marks seem to be the only root line I can find. I haven't adjusted this bra once today.
Does this look like a good fit? Should I go down a cup? Going up is half an inch too big and looks ridiculous.

It looks great, but looks are hardly an exact science. How does it feel?

Well usually if it looks food and feels good... you have a winner!
Cookies always roam no matter what. I suggest tacking them to the bottom of the cup with a couple light stitches. It has little, if anything to do with your shape. To my eye your shape doesn't look particularly full on either top or bottom. Your proportions look pretty close to what bra manufacturers assume in this size range, meaning you should be able to find a decent fit in most mainstream brands as long as the size is right

Alright! You can put it on the board-my first bra that fits! Thanks for your help.
Wore it 12 hours doing errands and stuff today, and I honestly forgot I had it on. Usually by hour 8 or 9 the 30DD's felt tight all over. Boobs didn't puddle or escape, wires didn't poke or bind, straps stayed in place and weren't rubbing my armpits raw. I did notice the removable cookies were shifted up and to the center, is that needing more depth at the bottom and sides? And would that make me FOT or FOB or even?
I've never had a bra that fits so this is all new to me, lol.
