This is really small! I was bummed because I just submitted my measurements into the r/abrathatfits calculator, and I came up with 32FF as my size. Obviously this style bra doesn't fit, because it was too tight in the band and my boobs were popping out of the top! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> It's really pretty, though. I wish it fit!

This bra is not owned any more

  Cleos all run tight in the band, and I think most people have to go up a cup in the Juna. If you want to try again, maybe a 34FF will fit you better?

  And welcome to the site! :)

• Thanks! I'm sort of obsessed with finding the right bra now, hahah! This site is amazing!
  And thanks for the recommendation!

• The Juna isn't one of the Cleos that run tight in the band; it's a padded style and the unlined Cleos are the ones that generally run tight.

  That said, it's a shallow-cupped bra that runs a cup size or two small. I have average projection and usually wear 30FF in Cleo, but I have a tiny bit of overflow in the Juna even in 30G.

• my newest juna in 32FF was a bit snug until it broke in with the help of an extender. that being said, im between a 34 and 32 band, and it just goes to 32, so i would call the band true to size. its definitely on the shallow side though, so that is more likely the issue making it seem too small. have you tried the band on upside down so the cups are out of the equation?
  

• I need to research this stuff a bit better before I order from a UK site! I wish I had somebody near by that could tell me what the heck my shape is, or even somewhere I could just try bras on. I had my hubs help me do the five measurement thing for r/abrathatfits, and I drove an hour outside of town to a specialty bra boutique that's supposed to be really good. The lady there measured me at a 36DDD, and the bra I bought from her fits nicely, but after a while the center part digs into my belly fat when I sit down. Still, it's better than what I had been wearing before. I'm just confused because I know that the underbust measurement is supposed to be the band measurement, right? My measurements are:
  underbust snug: 32" underbust tight 30" bust standing 39" bust leaning down 42" bust laying down 41"
  

• I've never heard of the upside down thing before coledarling ! I'll try that, though the cups are still wayyy too small.

• oh gosh a 36DDD sounds like she used the +4 method on you. did you ever post on /abrathatfits an ask there? it looks like the cal says to start with 32FF/G, maybe youre closer to a 32G. which would mean Juna would probably have to be sized up a few cups to work, and that may make it too wide.

• yes the cups will probably be too small, i agree. but at least it will tell you if the band size is closer to correct, and thats a huge help!

• The lady at the boutique was older, so more than likely she did use the +4 method. Arghhhh!
  I'm not married to the idea of having a Juna, or even the balconnet style bra. I just want something that fits and doesn't make my boobs push out to the sides. Before my recent bra adventures, I had always worn a 36DD in whatever full coverage styles I could find. Quad boob city for sure.

• i feel you, im still on the journey of finding "the one" bra. getting close though! :) we have to keep on trucking, one day the bra prince will come!

• I personally size up in the band for the Juna because I think the band still runs a bit small. I don't have a problem with the cups being small at all (I got with my regular cup size), but I'm shallow, so they're right for my shape.
