Thanks to Beckym82, I now own my first EM bra!! Logically, I know it is too small for me (I can barely close the band but it is perfect with an extender and it will stretch, right?) and I definitely should go up at least one if not two cup sizes. But I don't want to give it up because even too small, it makes my boobs look AMAZING! I'd almost given up on finding a "perfect fit" bra but this addresses everything I'd been struggling with, fit-wise.

It has narrow wires but deep cups, not too wide of a center gore and hallelujah, it fits and even lifts ... my extremely high set but not necessarily perky breasts (as in my true underbust or breast root starts at the bottom of my armpit...see this post by http://www.bralessinbrasil.com/2012/07/torso-length-height-underarm-fit-and.html for a better explanation). I don't have to shorten the straps to high heaven & have them digging into my armpits in an attempt to get some lift. The underwires don't jab or wrap around to my back. The fabric doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. (I'm looking at you, Curvy Kate Princess!) My not so firm tissue stays in place.

In short (or long, at this point), it ticks all the boxes for what I thought was my impossible to fit chest.

First of all, when I received this bra it was used, and some of the hooks were being pulled out and were quite loose. A quick sewing job fixed that up, but that means that I've never worn the bra without an extender, but with an extender the band feels like a true 32, so it probably runs a little small. You may want to size up.
This bra is everything I'm looking for in a bra . . . except it's too big in the cups. The little accents of flowery ribbon is adorable, the wires are narrow, the cups are deep and the wings don't stab me ... under my arms. But there is a lot of gaping at the top of the cups, and I think I may have overestimated my size (for the record, I find myself spilling out of too-tight 32Gs and am on the hunt to find a more comfortable fit. This was one attempt).

**Update:
After adjusting the straps to a more comfortable length and ditching the extender, I can verify that this bra, while gaping a little, is certainly wearable and the gaping is not that significant (or not significant enough to justify sizing down). The band is tight, yes, and fits more like a loose 30 than a 32. But overall, I'm very pleased with the quality of this bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
