Bra fitting help » Sister size up based on this fit? I want to try a different style.

Sister sizing for more projection
Original problem
I don’t even know where to go from here but this is an 80HH. EM’s calculator suggested a 80GG for me. Not enough immediate projection for me as there’s space at the IMF and quadding. The straps are also a little wide. I love the wires in this one though and the shape this bra gives me. I am looking into getting their narrow shoulders line in the FB options. Should I sister size because 80HH is too small? 75K? Or try their suggested 80GG. Does their sizing between styles vary a lot?

helpfulWhat does it look like between your shoulder blades? is there void? How tight? Ive had similar problem and realised band was just too small.

helpfulDefinitely disregard EM's 80GG suggestion. I think you're thinking along the right track, especially since you're noting that this band is big on you. 75K would be 2 cup sizes up from an 80HH (sister size 75J), and I'm just pondering whether that would be too big or not. Here are some assumptions I'm making that I'm not 100% on: 1. you've got squishy breast tissue rather than dense 2. your right boob (I think--stage left in the first pic) is a fair amount bigger than your left boob (could be the way you're holding the camera tricking me). In that case, I wonder if 75JJ would be better. I've got really squishy boobs, and that's about what one cup too small looks like on me; also, I worry about your smaller boob if you were to try a 75K. For sure you could just put a cookie in and call it a day, but personally, I'd find that kind of annoying in an unlined bra.
But also I'm pretty sure EM FB starts at 75K. Definitely sucks to be on that edge range! Given the assumptions I noted above, if it were me, I'd try a 75JJ before a 75K, but I don't think trying a 75K would be way off base either if your heart's set on it, especially if I'm assuming wrong above.

Sister sizing always gets me. Thank you! Yes my left boob is a lot smaller than my right! Breast feeding problems : ). FB line does start at 75K so I’m bummed about that because the narrow shoulder line EM only offers plunge in anything below 75K. Plunge doesn’t work for my center fullness. back to the drawing board!

Maybe you could get some bra strap clips?

I’m not sure how to upload in fit check but here is the back and wire. https://imgur.com/a/w9CO6ZH
It is on the second hook and I have to pull it down a lot because it rides up.
