Now I must speak sometimes something, just where it is warm.
I notice with all my Bras the hangers everybody are too wide and everybody stops 3-4cm behind my breast fabric. (Middle of my armtips)
These are thus with my Mellissa(60G), Pour Moi Bliss(30E), Gossard Reverie 3/4 cups (30E), Juna (28FF)
What for models have narrow bows which do not go so far to the back, must assume quite slowly from the fact that I have no wide base and my Bras everybody has to wide bows :(

  • The Polish brands are narrow. Ewa Michalak, Comexim, and Anna Pardal. Avocado has some styles that are wider than others, but they're still narrower than UK. Sizing is tricky, particularly with Ewa Michalak. I find the on site calculator accurate, but lots of women don't. Comexim doesn't use double letters, and they run small. You can find Ewa Michalak and Comexim up for resale pretty often.
    There's also Samanta which goes on sale at Zulily often, and Kris Line which you can find on Amazon. Ewa Bien is another one and it's on eBay, but I have no experience with any of those brands.

    As for UK brands Panache Jasmine seems to be a common recommendation for anyone looking for projection.
    I think Cleo Marcie (and similar cuts) is supposed to be decently projected and narrow at a certain size range, but I don't know what range it is.
    I've also read that some of the unlined Freyas are fairly narrow for a UK brand, but I have no experience so I can't direct you to any models.

  • I am narrow too, and I hate wires going to the middle of my armpits.

    Bras that work for me:
    Gossard Glossies Moulded Bra (6271) (although the sizing is different between colors)
    Claudette Dessous Mesh Underwire Bra (CD2000) (sizing is different between years)
    Other Claudette bras? I haven't figured out the sizing of the Claudette Paramour Underwire Bra (101015008), but the wires are definitely narrow enough
    Panache Andorra Full Cup Bra (5675)
