I don't think a strapless bra exists for a narrow and projected shape? You can see this bra from the pictures just doesn't match my shape.

I can see why this bra is often recommended. It's about the price of a Polish bra (like about the same price as an Ewa Michalak from Levana bratique), but it's not the quality of a Polish bra.

I wish the band was wider, I think I would feel more secure.

The underwires are very narrow on the side, but the cups are very TALL: I think that's where a lot of the cup volume goes. I don't fill out the bottom of the cups, or the top corners.

The band is definitely small. I mean, I understand they have to do this to have the strapless bra stay up; I stretched the band to 29" and I can wear it with an extender.

I think I would probably have to make my own strapless bra for my shape. I know Ewa Michalak used to make a strapless bra, but not anymore.

The bottom of the cup does have cookie pockets, if one wants to add chicken cutlets, fyi.

  I also had the tall cup issue with all the strapless bras I tried. And many run very tight in the band. I found decent success with the wonderbra strapless. The "wires" (I think they may be plastic pieces?) Are in the shape of hands that work to push the tissue forward. It's a moulded cup so it's not a perfect fit but it stays in place all day and is very supportive.

  Strapless for projected shapes is tough! The physics of supporting a cup with band tension only requires more compression and less forward projection. But once you get to a heavier breast size it's hard for regular fabric and foam to compress a projected shape and push it upward that way. I've never found one that works for me. Really want an overbust corset but they're really hard to find off-the-rack for short torsoes. I wonder if that might work for you, though, being taller!

  ComeAtMe_Bra , hmm that's a great idea.

  I would love to make something like this https://www.reddit.com/r/MAKEaBraThatFits/comments/n6m3hw/not_the_prettiest_and_does_not_fit_but_i_learned/

  Yeah, the concept of a strapless bra is to bring everything close to the chest making them wide and shallow. I think it’s Dreams and Underthings that said strapless bras for narrow and projected breasts is a shape mismatch by design (and function). Like said above.
