I’ve apparently gained some weight and/or bulk in my bust, so now all my Polish bras don’t fit right. 😭 Wires getting pushed out of my IMF, wires sitting on tissue, and of course the Elomi bras are still too wide.
I remeasured myself and it’s not really any different, so why the heck aren’t my bras fitting right?? I’d chalk it to ~that time of the month~ except it isn’t. I’m so bummed and confused. Not planning on going all-out and buying a million new bras, but I did order a KL Elegance bra in 75KK to try. Anyway, just felt like ranting, but please comment if you’d like to commiserate or if you have any advice from experience!

If you started taking a medication recently, that can affect weight or body distribution. Dietary changes from the holidays or New Year resolutions? You could be retaining water. It is possible that you have a change in volume in a parameter you are not measuring, for example, perhaps you have gained a bit "vertically", which might not be obvious if only measuring in the horizontal plane.
I continue to work on dropping the COVID-19 so I can fit back in my pretty Polish bras (actually, all my pretty bras). I feel your pain.
It sometimes just works like that. Measurement are the same or similar, but the shape and/or texture has changed.
I also noticed some change about two years ago, suddenly my best bras stopped fitting so well and I am confused what should I do about it, tbh I'm not really in mood of finding the right models *again*. :( I did get some new bras, but they're not perfect and I kinda rotate different models to avoid discomfort. And since the pandemic it's even easier to avoid since I don't have to worry about being trapped in an uncomfortable bra for over 8 hours. I'm also not eager to 'change the wardrobe" because I did it once when I was at the beginning of bra mania and after my first size change I thought it would be permanent (famous 'migration' thing) and I sold some bras, then later I actually went back to the previous size and I missed the bras I sold.
