Curvy Kate, why?

I now own two of CK bras: Florence and Ellace in 32D. They were heavily discounted, so since I'm on a budget, I decided to buy them. And I'm DISAPPOINTED. I literally want to cry right now.
The biggest issue with them is upside down seven shaped cups. It doesn't look any better when I put any of them on. With Florence I fill bottom of the cup just fine, but lace is puckering, and top of the cup cuts in. With Ellace I have some empty space at the apex and on top, lace is puckering, and cuts in.
I'm not new to altering bras, but I don't even know what to do with these... Lace portion on top of the cups is so tiny, I'm not sure how to work with that. I can take Ellace in a little bit maybe, but cutting in Florence has to go, it seems. Ugh.

  • No need to cry, they don’t fit your particular shape so you can return them or sell them. There are literally thousands of other bras in your size to try. What is your general shape and what has worked best for you so far?

  • It's so frustrating when you see a good deal and it doesnt work!! I've been there many many times. If it's more than you can do then I'd return. I'd rather pay for one good fitting bra than 2 poorly fitting ones and take good care of it. Is 32D you're usual size or do you think that might be too small? From the description is sounds like there may be some "orange in a glass issues" maybe???
