Used to fit

This is a beautiful bra. The embroidery is so pretty, and I really love the eyelash lace framed flower in the middle instead of a bow or a button or some other embellishment. It's different, I like different. Browsing around in the Avocado site, it seems like this bra is no longer made in any color. That's a shame, as it's truly lovely and sophisticated.
Unfortunately for me, that pretty embroidery shows through my t-shirts. Oh well.
So, this bra is a first for me in that it brings to attention an unevenness I was previously ignorant of. I know most women have a bigger and a smaller side. I didn't think I was any different and knew my left side was slightly larger. But I've never had a bra that highlighted that so much. This one does. My left is larger and fills the cup perfectly, seriously, like made for my breast perfect. The right side, not so much. It fits well up to the seam separating the cup from the embroidered upper and fits well again at the eyelash lace trim, but there is a bit of gaping in between. Still normal, but what happened in this bra that I've not had happen before was my larger breast pretty much pulled the whole bra to its side so I had one part of the gore tacking nicely on my sternum while the other is sitting on my left side tissue. All the adjustments in the world wouldn't fix it, so I sewed the wires together and now it's much better. I can fit two fingers in between my breasts, I've never had to narrow a gore for myself before.
Anyway, the rest of the bra is great. The band is nice and tight on the loosest hook, the straps feel good and aren't too wide set, but they are only half adjustable (I wonder if I could cram the adjuster onto that lace if need be) the front is trimmed with more of that pretty lace.
The shape is a bit pointer than what I get from the rest of my bras, but it's still a nice one, sort of a rounded point, not a bullet.

I set the fit based on my left side after the (reversible) gore alteration.
