Tried this one as a test fit to work out what size I am in anything that's not Ewa Michalak. Found it a size too big in the band, but the wires were massively wide and at least an inch or so too far back on each side. I don't like the rounded C shape of the wires at all, and they dig in and pressed uncomfortably. I -just- filled the cup, with the bigger side just having the top edge dig in very slightly, but I don't know how it would have gone if the wires were the right width. I'm slightly concerned that by going down a band and cup size that it'll dig in more.

Inharket if you go down a band size for narrower underwire, you *might* have to go up a cup size, too. So, yeah, it is tricky. Maybe one of the Ewa Michalak styles would be better.
For me, the underwire width is the crucial fit factor. If it is wide enough, like a Goddess or Elomi, and the cup size is large enough, then the gore tacks. I always want to have the core tack -- kind of a fanatic about it. I remember the celebration when I finally ordered a large enough cup size, 40FF, "Oh, so this is what a gore that tacks feels like!" :)
