So, I got a 28G - Curvy Kate » Lottie (CK1601) from a bratabase user today. I'm still working on my perfect fit. The best I have so far is the Masquerade Rhea (6121) in 28FF which fits me pretty well with a little gaping due to the strap position. I figured the Lottie would be too big, but I wanted to try it out and see.
I don't have any pictures in it, but the cups were definitely too big at the top. I filled out the bottom almost perfectly though. I think a cup size smaller would be the correct size, but I also know that the fit would be horrible. When I stand straight, I could almost wear the bra now, but when I slouch it gets all wrinkly. I can tell that I'd have both quadboob and wrinkles if I was wearing the correct size.
What made me sad is that it fit amazingly on the side. I've noticed that I need wide cups. I can't feel any breast tissue on my side, but the wide cups are so much more comfortable. I noticed this in the Lottie and the Marks & Spencer Limited Collection bra I had in 28F.
I really want to find some non moulded or padded bras that fit me well. I need to figure out my shape better so I can use bratabase optimally. I'm currently trying to find the Cleo Lucy (5851) in a 28FF for cheap to test it out. Are there any wide, non moulded or padded bras for women with even fullness breasts?
