Didn't fit

I have medium to wide root shallow boobs, and tall roots up to my collarbone, neither FoT nor FoB. My regular UK size is 30E.

Why This bra didn't work for me:
- The cups have a ridiculous amount of projection.
- The cups are very closed on top (which I didn't expect in a balcony/halfcup). The top rim cuts into my breast tissue while I was not filling out the apex.
- The cups are molded (no seams!), and have a projected and closed-on-top shape. I think they might work for people who need immediate projection (boobs that are full on bottom), and are not too full on top at the same time.
- The wires are U-shaped and very long, making the bra unconfortable to wear. They dug into my armpit area uncomfortably (and the side boning was making it even worse).
- The band is too stretchy. Despite of stretching only to 30" when I measured, it felt unstable and slid around on my back when I was moving. It actually FEELS a lot stretchier than the measurements indicate.
Hooking it tighter didn't help. I didn't get any support from the band. Also, I found the band ridiculously thin compared to the height of the cups. Thin bands that don't have are leotard back are not my favourites, since they are very prone to cutting in.
