I am calculated on abrathatfits as 34F, Herroom, 36FF, Bratabase, 34H/HH. Well, what size to order? I am narrow root, pendulous, slope shouldered. I've lost weight and have some left to go. High tummy comfort is critical. I had a recommendation to try this bra. The fabric is very comfortable and the wires are not noticeable at all. I am shaped rounded and toward the front, which I like. The straps are not padded but they leave every indication that they will remain where I put them with the leotard back. Must have for me! The cups are overflowing a bit, so I could go up a cup size. I could hook the band at the smallest row but the band does not ride up at the last row. So, this is a balconet style, which I'm not used to. I have the "cake on a plate" look. Is that good or bad? There is some bouncing that maybe could be captured by the increased cup size. Should I look for something that will separate the girls more? Yes. It's has push up styling, but it's minimal and not an issue. My current ill fitting bra is the Elomi Bijou. Even with weight loss, the fit is okay, except for the gaping at the top of the cup.

  So, what's wrong w the bijou? shape problem or you just outgrew it (or under-grew it?) I had a bijou once - a bit too wide and shallow for me, but it was comfy.

  Its a lot easier to help fit issues if you include pictures!

  "cake on a plate" is good if thats what you want. Bouncing is only a problem if it bothers you. Boobs too close is a problem if it bothers you (that is my biggest issue - if my boobs touch, I get a rash!)

  Different brands and cuts will fit slightly differently, so the point is to use your sizes as a starting point. Then you get to experiment! You can look for what is on sale in your size(s) on amazon and look for reviews here, or even try bras from ebay for a low-cost way to find your perfect bra
