I'm new to proper bra fitting, and while I'm quite well aware that this bra does not fit, I'm not sure where to go from there. I have a few bras that fit really well and I forgot that I'm wearing them, but I have read that their sizing is very off, for example:

Teal/Purple Curvy Kate Thrill Me in 38E fits perfectly, no double-boob, can fill it out all the way.
Red/Black Curvy Kate Tempt Me in 38F again, fits perfectly.

With the Romance, I'm very confused on the fit. As you can see from the pictures, the main problem is that the cups are huge - I know I ... need to go down, but I'm unsure of how many cupsizes. Even on my larger breast, I can fit my entire fist into the cup and then some on the top. However, the bottom seems to be ok, aside from some odd wrinkles right above the underwire.

And then the band...it looks like it's cutting in...it feels like it's cutting in, but not that badly...So I bought a bra extender to find out if I needed a bigger band size or not, and even adding just 2 more inches made it ride up and completely destroyed any hope of support. Is this just because the elastic is so narrow? Or is there some bra-guru secret that I'm missing that helps rid me of back fat and cutting into my rolls?

Even despite the poor fit, I am head over heels for this bra, it's just so beautiful and feels like me that I really want to send it back and just order a better size rather than give up.

Any advice is quite welcome!

Thanks for reading!
