Didn't fit

The wires are so wide! I had to alter it a bit because the fabrci in the armpit area was rubbing against my inner arm and armpit soooo badly. I tried to move the straps over a little, too, because they were really wide, as well. Even after these alterations, it still is really uncomfortable. I've come to the conclusion that Curvy Kate bras are too wide in the wires for me to wear. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

Teal colorway

    I returned this in a 32JJ - the wires were way too wide for me, too, and the shape just didnt work at all. I finally read one positive review of wide-wired bras - they can minimize you so your shirts fit better, by smooshing your boobs around the to side? Mmm, no, its not working that way for me lol

    However i just ordered a Lola on sale - hoping it'll do better for me lol

  • Yeah the minimizing effect only works if your breast roots are wide enough that part of your breast tissue can somehow settle that far out to the side. This is not the case for me. Massively wide wires only leads to empty space on the sides and spilling way the F out in front!

    I need wide wires to enclose the entirety of my breast tissue, which, btw, has been moving more towards the front of my torso but at the same time because of where the root starts I have to move boob to put my arms flat against my sides. I got rid of a lot of my button down shirts during my recent closet clean out because the two buttons where my boobs are refuse to stay closed. They button, but if I breathe, they don't stay that way.
