Issue resolved
tall even alteration
Original problem
-Is these straps set too separate for me?
(can I detach it and saw it again?)I thought I have tall roots because the slope of my boobs (does it make sense?) starts very high on my chest wall.
but it feels different with breast tissue.
-can it be muscle there(pushed in the picture)?-I mean, I am confused whether I am short or tall root.
and finally, I thought since my boobs start right below my collar bones, I have tall and fot boobs.
but now I am not sure.
-can you tell whether mine are fot or fob?

I think you have tall roots and an even shape.
The cup is too large. Most people have to size down in this cut. The 65H will be more narrow and shorter. Make sure the wires are in your imf when you swoop and scoop. The gore is pretty narrow as is, probably won't bother you in the correct size but it's easy to make it more narrow if you need to.
ETA: I looked at your profile and see that you've tried several styles in 65H that are the same cut as this one and they didn't fit either. This cut just doesn't work for you. Gaia is another Polish brand you could try, they have several different cuts of unlined and semi padded bras. WelshCorgiPembroke has reviewed several of them and may be able to help.

Estelle I couldn't tell about those without seeing pictures. Also if the gores are too high in this one aren't they too high in the Cheris as well?
When you tried 65H exactly where did you see quadding? Near the gore? Or did the top cut into your breasts? Was it a lot or a little?
I tried 75I - Gorsenia » Nathalie Soft Underwired (K289) (same cut as your Marine) which is the European equivalent of the UK 34G that I wear in Panache. It fit me very much like this 65I fits you. Then I tried 75H - Gorsenia » Nathalie Soft Underwired (K289) which fits pretty well. I will say though the sides and gore are about as tall as I can wear comfortably so I can see where they might be a problem for you. Thus my assessment that this cut doesn't work in your case.
It would be very helpful if you could measure your bras and take measurements of yourself too.

I just overlapped marine one and it fits me so well, no gaping anywhere.
those two cheri quads along top of the bras and gapes around wings.
I can put two fingers, I guess wire is too wide.do yo by any chance know what overlapping wire does to volume of cups?
I uploaded pic after alteration to 65I - Gorsenia » Marine Soft Underwire Bra (K275) If you can have a look. -
I don't know what it does to the total cup volume, but in my experience overlapping the wire channels at the top of the gore tends to close the cup on top.
I looked at your picture with the alteration. While the top of the cup no longer gaps it still looks too tall on you. But if it's comfortable that's what counts. I do think there are other brands and models that will suit you better.

thank you so much for your kind regard.
I looked for gaia but there are several different cuts.
I am kind of lost lol.
finallygotboobs Thank you!
I will try gaia soon.
I was trying to figure out my size with this brand.
I just altered 65I and 65J in cheri.
I moved the straps in by 1.5cm each side and overlapped the gore.
it then quads.
Do you have any idea what is wrong with this?
