I've been professionally fitted 4 times now. Every single fitter comments on the shape of my ribs, they ... are V-shaped and oval and flared. My breast's "present petite", as one fitter stated. So I look very shallow, because of how my breasts are positioned on my ribs.

Basically from my uneven breast shape, rib shape, and muscular upper body, I should really not wear wired bras. When I do, they do not sit in my IMF. So I often wear lightly lined bras to hide my unevenness and to mask that wires not sitting in my IMF correctly.

I have a hard time finding bras that the shoulder straps get long enough and wide enough. I wish they made more bras in my size with wider width shoulder straps. My shoulders are broad, very muscular, and sensitive. Straps always leave red marks from digging in and my band sliding down my torso.

My breast are wide set, yet I can not have a bra gore that is 2" or taller or it will press on breast tissue and be very painful.

I usually quad in padded and gape in un-padded cups.

I do well with loose 30 band or tight 32 bands since my under bust is 31" when I'm not bloated. I could do a 34 band during those times.

A perfect bra would be:
9" deep cups
5" wide cups
31" stretched band
2" tall or shorter gore (can be taller, but will have to be less than 1" in width and narrower as it gets taller)
6" about, height cups
3-4" tall wings
U-back/ballet back
1 hook or 3 or more rows of hooks (i HATE 2 hooks! but can't get-a-way from them)
1" wide shoulder straps (dream, never gonna happen, hasn't happened yet...)
