  I have this same bra in a 28H, in the same color. I've noticed that some of the colors have slightly different measurements, and sense they are all averaged together for their listing it can result in some differences in fit. My blue Thrill Me has the same cup measurements as one of the Fantasie bras you have listed, 6" cup width and 10" cup depth. The average measurements are 6.4" and 10.3."
  Of course each person measures differently, so my measurements may not be correct. I have this bra in a 28H and it is too small, but a 28HH in black that is slightly large. I'd say go with the 28H in this bra and color, just because of my experience with the sizing differences between the colors.

  • Oh! I didn't notice, but you're absolutely right about the Thrill Me/Fantasie Ava comparison.
    From what I've observed around here, it seems to be the ivory and black ones that are a cup size larger than the rest.
    Most helpful. :D

  • The colours are differently, apart from general inconsistencies.

    The grey/pink and the navy/lime is the first and are bigger in the cup. So are the black/white, the fuchsia/orange and the ivory/black.

  As you say that the back is riding up, the back is probably quite big. When you wear a smaller back size the higher tension will stretch the cups too, so you will have less room in the front in a 28GG than a 30G.

  I think that if you want a bra without any cutting in at all, which also means less cleavage and more skin showing, a 28H is probably the best. Then you will get about 1½ cup size larger than now.

  If you are looking for massiv cleavage though, you should probably go for a 28GG with the risk of it cutting in.

  As you seem very concerned with the cutting in I would recommend the 28H. However, this is based on what you say, as I sadly cannot really tell how bad it is based on the pictures. :/

  • Ah, good point about the tension of the band pulling the cups.
    Due to having quite low breasts, I barely get the 'massive cleavage' in the one that's too small for me, so I don't really mind about that. I think I would rather just have a good fit, as you say.
