Bras for Shorter Rounder Ladies?

I have a friend who I was shocked to find out has never been for a proper fitting even though she is quite full busted. I want to suggest some bras/brands for her to try, but she is a completely different shape than I am. She is about 5' ish and looks to be about a 36/38 band She is wearing a 40/42 but clear getting no support. She isn't keen on me measuring her yet. I am not sure how big of a cup because her bust is currently hanging really low I would guess at least an H/HH. Her complaint against bras is too narrow wires and too tall cups. Any Suggestions?

  • Elomi make for 34+ bands and have fairly wide wires.. in my experience they don't go up too high under the arms..different styles will have different cuts of course and so some will have taller cups if they are fuller cups most likely. Panache have recently also bought out a new line called Sculptresse, they start at a 36 band(have no experience with these). And Goddess are made by Eveden(as are elomi)..I beleive they have wider wires also.

  • I was going to suggest Elomi as well.
