About this Bra

Purchasing:
* $47 on Amazon with free Prime shipping & returns (some sizes/colors available on Amazon Wardrobe, but not this one)
* Available in black and beige only.

Band:
* One layer of stretch semi-sheer knit.
* Elastic at top of band.
* Wing support: seaming
* Continuous band - wires lower than wings.
* Back close with 3 columns of hooks.

Straps:
* smooth elastic
* soft (don't stand up on their own)
* full adjust
* leotard back

Cups:
* 2-seam (3-piece) half cup (Called a balconette but the cup edge is diagonal, not horizontal, so really a half cup.)
* unpadded, stiff underwire
* All pieces constructed of a non-stretch mesh with a leaf applique (kinda like a lace). Unlined.
* Soft cups (no molding or padding).
*** Wire runs full length of the channel (unusual).

Fit

About me: petite with wide horizontal oval, slightly conical breasts
* average projection
* wide-set (3 fingers width of space between breasts)
* very wide roots (extend past the mid-axillary line)
* even horizontal fullness (just barely outer full)
* short root height, average vertical placement
* mix of firm & soft tissue (front molds to shape of bra, sides push wimpy wires away)
* conical shape (but will squish to round)
* full on top (2/4 shape, not even or very full) - BUT functionally even to FOB due to short roots and soft tissue
* petite (5'3") so have narrow frame
* front (anterior) rib flares

Band:
* length: too big
* wings: too short, armpit quad boob
* axillary skin spillage

Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine.

Cup:
* Gives breasts a slightly pointy shape.
* Wires very, very narrow.
* Top of cup smooth (but only because so much boob escaping cup).
* Bottom of cup filled.

Straps:
* not too far apart
* adjust short enough


Assessment and Plan:
* Cups far too narrow. Band too big.
* Already tried 32E (band borderline too big, cups still very narrow).
* Based on measurements table, probably need at least a 30G to get enough width, but cup depth will be too big.
* Style too projected for my shape. Try different styles.
