Replacing wires in a sports bra

I tried to replace the wires in my 30J - Freya Active » Underwired Sports Bra (4002) with a Porcelynne size 42 wire and it turned into a disaster. The end of the wire closest to the armpit angles in a way where the top stabs me in the ribs. I'm not sure what to do to correct this problem. Anyone have any ideas?

For kicks, check out the wire size difference: http://bra.pe/IhEW/

  • Wow, what a size difference! Sorry to hear about the stabbing.

  • For reference, Porcelynne 42 is 6" wide, the Freya wire is 8.5".
