I was thinking after my most recent blunder with the 80HH - Ewa Michalak » Bm Suzy about how wires fit my breast shape. A few weeks ago, I posted about how it dawned on me that my breasts are splayed, and then how too tight bands cause the cups to stretch too far back and become shallower.

My most recent realization is that certain types of wires just don’t seem to be the right fit for my breast shape. For example, Ewa Michalak and Nessa bra wires are very ‘UU’ shaped, and extremely angular on the sides. They jut straight back like a slash /. Kris Line wires are more curvy, like a “3” shape (but sideways so it looks like a bra...hopefully that makes sense and you can visualize it!)

I feel like the angular “UU”shaped wires also have way more space at the bottom of the wire, which is why I always find this type of wire not staying in my IMF. Either that or my boobs are too wide for those types of wire so they push the wire out of my IMF. Either way, I think those “3” shaped wires fit me sooo much better. I think I’m going to just have to stick with what I know and not stray away from Kris again, lol!

I did end up ordering a Kris Line Veronica full cup bra today in a 36JJ, even though I probably shouldn’t have. I guess I should blame PayPal for letting me split the payments into 4 now!

  • Can't comment on what's happening with your boobs specifically, but I've yet to find a bra with wires that fits the literal shape of my boob. My boobs are really flat on the bottom, so there's always space there, even when the projection is more or less good. 65H - Ewa Michalak » Sf Moonlight Lace is my best fitting wired bra, and you can see even there how the wires aren't built for my 'slant-into-flat-on-the-bottom' tissue.

  • bustyand wow, that’s such a pretty bra! Honestly, I’m about the same, it seems like I’m flatter underneath as well. Glad to know I’m not alone with that certain fit issue, though!
