So a while back I ordered the Comexim Selene Biustonosz in 65E which was my normal Ewa size. I had been debating at the time what size to get from Comexim but went with the 65E vs 65F. However, when the bra came in it was at least a cup size too small or more - the gore ... didn't sit flat and if I S/S then it really was noticeable and just does not quite fit - though I do not quadboob I just don't have the gore anywhere near laying flat on me.
Upon looking at measurements of the Ewa 65E cup depth they average around 8.5 cm give or take a little bit, but the Comexim for 65F (there aren't many Comexim even listed, and none with measurements for 65E listed) has a cup depth about 7.5 give or take slightly. So, it was no wonder my Comexim 65E wasn't deep enough - and just looking at the cups I can tell it's not deep enough. Even the 65H is about the same depth and only when you go to HH does it jump to 8.7-9+.
So, before looking at the various sizing charts on bratabase I figured I'd just go up a cup size and maybe that would work. But, looking at the depth of the cups I'm wondering if I need to go up to at least the H? I hate to order one solo bra again just to test the size out since S/H is so pricey and I also hate to order like 3-4 of them and then they be too small again.
My underbust is 74cm loose, 72 comfortable, and 69 break the ribs.
My bust is 87cm (which put me at the full end of the E and loose end of the F according to their chart).
I originally picked the 65 instead of the 70 based on other recommendations on bratabase and reddit...and then picked the E based on the 87 cm.
Maybe instead of jumping from the E -> F -> G -> H cup try the G cup based on the depth charts on bratabase? I'm just nervous the F cup will be too small since I feel like the E cup was waaaay to small due to not being near deep enough.
Any suggestions? I really want to find my size in Comexim just to have another narrow root, beautiful bra company that is reasonably priced besides Ewa! And Comexim bras are beyond gorgeous and I hear more stable in the sizing department than EM is.

I think I have the opposite :/
When I lean over, I have narrow rooted omega shaped boobs (they still point away from each other though) and when I stand up I have a much wider root, pointer boobs etc...
Leaning over definitely gives my bottom have more projection and I know exactly what you mean. The only bra where I don't get that kind of crease is in my Piper.
Have you seen this?: http://i.imgur.com/zeP3dZF.png
I'm 2/4, which do you consider to be tear drop shapes.
@jillsas I've been looking again at your pics. I'll try to take a standing pic in the same angles as you on Venusian glow and make it into a sketch to compare.
When I think of teardropish I think it has more to do with the chest than the boob shape. I think any boobs with a tall top of 2 is teardropish kind of.
Standing up I nowadays am something like 2/5 mostly. Sometimes even 2/6.
But then I include the tail in my thinking. My chest has the 2 shape in itself and since my boobs starts up there it feels more logic to include it.
So therefore I see us both as teardropish.
Now; if I've been wearing Ariza 34J I'm sometimes bordering on a 3 on top because that bra is my migration devise. But on a more sagged day I look like a 1 on top with that projected part then doing the turn of a 3.
However compared to you I look separated when standing up. But on my back I look almost like a copy of you standing.
So I make out of that that you and I are quite similar but that you're younger and firmer than me? :)
Or how do you look on your back?
