Bra fitting help » 28FF CK Emily fit (update)
Curvy Kate » Emily Balcony Bra (CK5001) » 28FF 28:8
Issue resolved
I think overall it is a good fit, except now I know that I would feel much better in bras that have higher wings. I will still keep this bra.
Original problem
Hi all. This is a fit request update from the old one a few weeks ago (http://www.bratabase.com/troubleshoot/dhm4e/).
I've managed to exchange 28E for 28FF and now here are the issues I have:
- There are wrinkles on the left cup (smaller breast) around the nipple area and a little bit near the underwire. (Yes, the underwire is directly beneath the root)
- I think I need bras that have higher wings. It annoys me to see armpit fat (although not as bad as when I was wearing 28E one).
- Do I need a cup size up? Judging by the measurements, 28G depth is way too deep for me, although the width will be much better than this one.
- Do you think CK unpadded bras is good for my shape?Thanks!
p/s: Yes, I've swooped and scooped.

I think you have a perfect fit here. You could be the poster woman for how a bra should fit. You have good support, a really flattering shape from all sides, and a nicely uplifted profile. And all of this in a gorgeous, unpadded bra. Basically, I'm insanely jealous. I can't see the issue you're describing in the pictures, but it may only happen after you wear it for a while. I doubt that going up a size will fix it though. You may want to try a different style. Fantasie makes bras specifically designed with extra side support if that is a problem area for you.

I can see what you mean when you say the wires are too short.
IMO you could give the Panache Tango II Balconette, the Panache Ariza, the Panache Andorra Fullcup, the Panache Fern and the Masquerade Persia a try.
Especially the Tango II Balconette and the Ariza is relatively cheap to get on ebay and there are many colours. Note that the colour rapsberry in the Tango runs small in the cup and that Ariza has a very tight and non-stretchy band.

I have the Andorra fullcup, might put up (yet another) a fit request soon. I've been toying around the idea of a Tango for so long, maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy it. Thank you for the heads up!

Awwwww thank you! It's always interesting knowing what other people see.
At first I thought the shape is a little droopy, but, after I've shorten the straps, the lift is much better. The wrinkles also are lessen after my boobs are settled in the bra.
I have a Fantasie Kara, I think. Too bad the band is loose. I wish they start in 28 bands. :(
Thank you for your comment!
