Fits

Finally, I've found the Lucy that fits! This is one of those styles I've tried in tons of different sizes (28D, 30D, 30DD), but nothing has been quite right. Now that I'm a cup size bigger, I've finally come across the size that fits properly.

Having tried Lucy in the 30 bands, I knew that the 30 was a bit too big for me and would ideally need a 28. Unfortunately since this style is discontinued, I couldn't find a 28DD for the longest time. The 28D cups are far too small for me, even when I was a cup size smaller. The 30D cups always felt too small, and the 30DD cups felt much better.

Thus, it's no surprise that this ended up working best for me in 28E! The 28E gives me the snug band fit and larger cups I need, and even on my smaller side, it looks much better than the other sizes did. I always struggled with Marcie and Lucy cups in 30D feeling too small, but in the past I was too small for the 28E as I was between sizes. Now, this size provides adequate coverage as well as wires that are wide enough and sit properly. I've noticed recently that I really need more wire coverage under the arms than I was previously used to in order to keep all the breast tissue contained.

Now that I have a Lucy that fits properly, I think this style is slightly better suited to my shape than Marcie. I think I am pretty evenly distributed so the FoT/FoB cuts don't make much of a difference, but visually I think Lucy's proportions are better suited for me. So happy to finally find the right fit in this style!
