Compressible Tissue Demo

Several bras looked like "good fits" that were painfully too small. I'm very short-waisted, center full, close set and immediately projected with compressible, soft tissue.
  1. Underarm bruising lingered for three days. But, this bra fits center full, close-set breasts much better than Cleo Kali.
    Cup width = 4.3"
    Cup depth = 8.8"

  2. Extremely uncomfortable.
    Cup width = 5.4"
    Cup depth = 8.8"

    Kali Balconnet Bra (7561)

  3. Notice the gore base width compared with Gorsenia: my liquid breasts are pinned underneath both wires. There is no lift, and it is instantly uncomfortable. It is not too big and sizing down is not a remedy.
    Cup Width 5.3"
    Cup Depth 10.6"

  4. Underarm pain lingered for several hours. There are wrinkles in the top of the cup, and sizing down is not a remedy.
    Cup width = 5.5"
    Depth = 9.1"

    Supporting Role Underwire Bra (855203)

  5. Just a bit of discomfort, but I wore it for only 10 minutes before removing.
    Cup width = 5.8"
    Cup depth = 9.6"

  6. This does not cause lingering pain like the 32DDD of this model. See the center projection difference between the Gorsenia, Wacoal, Ewa, and Cleo models...
    Cup width = 5.9"
    Cup Depth = 9.5"

  7. Best support, best lift, and no pain. But still, one breast wears a wire: I need a bit more space near the gore. The ruffles in the top of the cup are present because the gore can't tack. Sizing down is not a remedy.
    Cup width = 6"
    Cup depth = 10"
