Hi everyone. I hope you can help me with this.
I want to try out the tempt me bra. I'm in search for a plunge that gives cleavage. I have a deco in a 32GG and it fits, but the cups are too far apart, so it doesn't really give cleavage like I want to. It feels alright to wear ... and it looks fine from the front and sides, but when I look down, it looks like its pulling my breasts apart. It's sort of trying to enclose me breasts more than possible. I've tried a larger cup in the deco, but that's too big. I'm pretty sure it's not the orange in the glass effect this time.
So I've been looking around for something with more shallow and closer together cups. That's why I'm wanting to try out the tempt me. I'm just really unsure about the size.
My normal size is a 32GG. That's my size in Cleo Lucy and marcie (worn on the 2nd hook) and in curvy kate Emily and romance (worn on loosest hook), plus the Freya deco (worn on loosest hook). I have a tease me in 30H that fits. I tried a tease me 32HH that was a lot too big in the cups and too big in the band. I do however feel that the 30 band is quite tight. The 30H cup is also a bit small, but my breasts don't fall out when I bend over, even if I jump around.
I can't figure out the sizing of the tempt me. I have close together boobs that are full on top and towards the centre, but with a wide root. I find that I need shallow cups and wide wires.
My concern about the tempt me is what size I should try, and if the straps will cut at my arm/armpit, as I find that curvy kate bras do.
My under bust measurement is 81 cm, if I measure loosely around 85 cm and I can pull the measuring tape to 75.5 cm. I'm quite squishy? I find it hard to figure out my bandsize, since my ribcage gets smaller just under my bust towards my waist, so a too small band tends to ride down and a too big band rides up.
I've always gotten great advice from this site, and I hope to get some advice on the tempt me size thank you so much
Ps. I'm really sorry this is so long. I've just tried to include as much info as possible.

I've been toying with the idea to make Bratabase measuring tapes to send out for free :P I just haven't got around it as I am really not happy with the current logo and I don't want to invest on them with the ugly one.
Just add your measurements on the bras as they are now, you can specify when you got them which might give a clue on usage, but not much help.
With different mesaurements we can actually make use of statistics to determine how the numbers for a same bra cluster and see which have less or more stretch.
Hah, well, I know there's a measuring tape *somewhere* in this mess. I'll wind up buying a new one long before a free one can arrive (especially if you still need to design a logo and order it before that can happen!).
