The center gore...

I have the Cleo marcie in a 32GG and it's such a great fit.
The only thing is that, even though its as narrow as possible, the center gore actually sits a bit on breast tissue. The gore can't be narrower, but I guess my breasts sit very close? I don't feel it, but when I take of the bra, I can see that it has been sitting on a tiny bit of tissue. I think a low gore, like with a plunge would eliminate it, but I can't find one that does not cut in (quadraboob). I have tried various sizes, but they all cut in. It's like they curve back in at the top of the cup instead of just being open. It's not due to the cups being too small, I have tried larger cups.
I just don't know if its possible to find a bra that doesn't sit on my tissue in the middle and doesn't cut in. The marcie is the only bra I have that doesn't tend to cut in. My other bras don't cut in per say, but it's close. If I go for a bigger size, I can't fill it and there's lots of wrinkling at the bottom, sides and center of the cups.
I have the deco in a 32GG and it fits, but needs some adjusting throughout the day to avoid the double-boobing. I tried a bigger cup and I swim in it. I just want something like the deco, but with more open cups that sits close together. I think I have very wide, shallow, full on top, close together boobs. If possible.
I just really want something that gives cleavage without cutting in. I really don't mind my breasts touching, so I wish I could find a plunge that works without cutting in and with the cups positioned close together. Otherwise my boobs fall out to the middle. It the cups were just closer, the boobs wouldn't escape. Maybe I can alter a deco, but that doesn't make the cups more open.
Does anyone have any suggestions? <3 I would really appreciate it.

  • Have you looked into the Panache Porcelain Plunge Bra 3371?? It goes up to your size and has good reviews on Herroom.

  • I have this problem too. I can't stand any center gores higher than around 8 cm's. Higher ones make me black and blue with holes in my bigger boob. My sister saw my boobs after I've been wearing my very cherished Panache Jasmine for not more than an hour, and it frightened her how I looked. She made me promise her to never wear anything but plunges and softcups from now on. I came to the sad conclusion I am not only extremely close-set, but also suffering from a light form of symmastia. This means I have tissue between my boobs. So it's useless to take in the gore or bend the wires. They will always sit on breast tissue, no matter what I try. So yes, from now on, only plunges for me.

    Have you tried something from Ewa Michalak PL's style yet? They make exquisite plunges that are not only very supportive (for a plunge), but also lift your boobs like you've never seen before. And they are so comfortable you can easily use them as everyday bra. Although like you, I have a big root that wishes Ewa's wires were a bit wider. But okay, I can live with this. Debenham's Gorgeous padded mesh styles also could be something for you. Their wires are a bit wider than Ewa Michalak.I bought one from another poster here on Bradatabase. And although the cups are about two sizes too small, I think the wires are more suitable for my shape. Debenham even has some on sale now (thanks for the tip, t_maia). They go to an H cup, so it's in your range (not in mine, so I'd have sister size and take in the band). In case you're interested, you can find them here: http://int.debenhams.com/fr/search/1500105591/
