I've finally figured this bra out after trying several sizes. I fit this bra somewhere between a 40GG and a 40H. However, there is a shape/style mismatch which is why I couldn't get the sizing right. I have had quadding in every size, 40GG to 40HH. That is because the elastic on the top of the cup is tighter than the cup so it cuts in to FOT breasts. It has nothing to do with the size of the cup. The other problem is cup separation. The gore is quite wide and my close breasts push it out. This creates instability.

In this size the wires are almost narrow enough for me. There is much less east west going on in this bra than in other sizes. Because the spacer fabric is stretchy I think I could get away with wearing this size if I cut off the elastic top and sewed the gore together, something I've done with the other two sizes I own. I will lurk on eBay until one comes up and snap it up to customize. I'm hoping opening the cup will eliminate side quad.

This bra is very durable, pretty, and provides a great shape with coverage though it is light weight. The only issue comfort wise for me is I don't like the lace under my armpits, but it can be cut off for comfort. I highly recommend it if you have wide, separate, FOB breasts or if you're willing to alter it. See how I altered my other one at 42H - Elomi » Amelia Spacer Moulded Bra (8740)

Dahlia (Lavender) colorway
