Most strapless bras in my size (28DD, 30D if I sister size up) do mot fit me well. Oftentimes they are too closed on top, especially on the outer edge. I am not extremely high set but they almost alway cut in my armpit which creates a very unflattering shape. And if they are open on top, they would come up in tall and shallow cups that either flatten me or gape on me. So after so many years of trying strapless bras, I decide to give up my correct size and seek chance in the matrix-sized ones. This one turns out to be the biggest success so far. The band is loose for me but tight as a 32, as it only stretches to 30". It does not fall off my 26" ribcage on the tightest hooks, but I probably still need to alter it in the future. It has a low gore and removable pushup padding, which helps bring my boobs forward and center, creating a nice look. It is shallow, but the edge of the cups hugs my shape nicely without gaping or cutting in. Overall, it is well-designed and worth keeping. Cost me only $19 on Amazon.

Edit 10/3/18: the band is loosing up quickly after a few wears. Yikes, too loose for me now.

• i have the same problems with a strapless, i think i might try this one you got. i also have the additional problem of having extreme back fat when wearing a strapless, i don't have back fat when wearing a regular bra tho.
  do you think this bra would work of a flared ribcage? should i size up from my usual 32D to a 34C since the band is so tight? :)

  moriko It depends on your preference of band tightness. It seems the bras that fit you currently stretch to 30"-32", so I think 32D is probably fine, but it may be better to try both sizes to compare, especially regarding the back fat problem.
