Bra fitting help » Perfect fit, maybe? Natori Feathers Contour Plunge 30DD
Natori » Feathers Contour Plunge Bra (730023) » 30DD 30:5
Issue resolved
I got all the answers I needed. Thank you so much for your help. Highly recommended.
Original problem
As far as I can tell, I think this is a really good fitting bra. I am not too knowledgeable about how bras should fit, however. I have a shallow shape and small boobs. I think sometimes I am able to get away with cup sizes that are too small without it being too noticeable.
I did post a fit check on Reddit & the things they mentioned were: 1) plunge related quadboobing and 2)wrinkle in cup. I was able to smooth out the wrinkle a little by pulling up the mesh overlay, but it was still there.
I think another problem is that the cups come up too high than it was intentionally designed for. I feel like this is most likely due to my frame (petite, high set boobs, long torso). I'm torn whether it *looks* too big for my frame if that makes any sense.
Do you guys see any other problems? I can post more pics if it helps.

helpfulIt looks great to me. Minor wrinkles are not uncommon with these mesh overlays on contoured cups, it doesn't mean much. I see no quadboobing at all, not sure what they saw?
I think it's a totally wearable fit. I don't think your breast height affects fit per se. If you really don't like how high the mesh part hits you, you could look for a different design, but it seems a shame to give up a bra that fits so well!

Honestly, to me the real test of good fit is (a) does it feel good, and (b) does it look good/look the way you want when you're wearing clothes. If it also looks good without the clothes, that's certainly a bonus, but by no means essential, unless you are buying lingerie specifically to be seen e.g. for a modeling portfolio or boudoir shoot. I love beautiful lingerie as much (possibly more) than the next gal but there is an order of priorities!

helpfulIt looks great! I can see something at the bottom of your cups. Is the band too tight. I had to wear an extender with my 30DDD and comfortable UB is 27". If the band doesn't feel too tight (and/or the cups don't feel too small on the bottom), then I can't see anything else wrong with it.
The cups don't come up too high. It looks good on you.

Thanks for the feedback! I've tried on so many bras in my size (30DD) and sister sizes (32D and 28E) and I've come across way more misses than hits. I don't mind that much how high the mesh part comes on me. My scrub tops and shirts cover that part up anyway. I just see other girls on this board who wear this without having it come up so high. I just wasn't sure it would still be an acceptable fit for me!
