Chantelle » Révèle Moi Perfect Fit Underwire Bra (1571) » 85F 38:6
Issue resolved
Know what to look for next time I buy a bra.
Original problem
This bra is comfortable and I like the shape it gives me, but the band size is loose. My breasts seem to be a little too far off to the sides too. The cup bunches a bit at the bottom and I'm not sure if there is enough room on the sides. Am looking for input on fit. I'm posting my other three bras for feedback on what works and doesn't with each bra.

If it rides up at the back the whole front will slump down and it will throw off the cup fit. Can you exchange for a sister size (80G)?

This is the exact same bra I bought at my first fitting. Also I think we may have similar shapes.
I agree with wendybien, you need a smaller band in this. Exchanging would be ideal but if you can't then sew the band shorter using the tutorial I linked in your adventure. Or take it to a seamstress. Once you have a properly fitting band I think you'll find the wires fit better too. It may even help with the wrinkles at the bottom of the cups.
It is a comfortable bra but it gives an east-west look to just about everyone.

dbmamaz Actually I do have a favorite - Panache Dahlia. Gives me a rounded shape but still gathers everything forward.
This Chantelle model looks east-westy in all pictures posted on btb. It doesn't accommodate center fullness very well. I only suggested that OP alter it if she can't exchange it because I know it's an expensive bra and it's certainly wearable if not ideal.
do you have a favorite you can recommend for her to try?
This one looked best from the side view, but the front view looks like it is not the right shape at all
