Bra fitting help » Fit not quite right?
Natori » Pristine Push Up (727151) » 34DD 34:5
Doesnt sit flat in middle. Also, the nipples seem to move around a bit as if it's too big right in the middle but seems to fit nice at end of cups. I tried the 32dd and was too small all over. I also own the natori feathers in 34d as the 34dd had a bit of gaping at top were cups meet a straps, but tend to spill out of front of the feathers 34d. This one is the bra I own which looks best by far under shirts, the feathers looks much flatter. Any advice or recommendations?

helpfulI could be wrong, but to me this looks too small in the cups!

There is also spill out on the sides, and the gore not tacking could mean it's getting pushed away by the boobs = too small cups.

Natori is also supposed to be for wide and shallow boobs, so that could be causing some other fit issues. Need more pictures to assess though...

I have to agree as well. More pictures would be helpful, but I think she is experiencing "Orange in a Glass" effect with the empty apex nipple space. Especially since this one appears too small otherwise.

Thanks for the replies, it's literally hanging to dry right now but I will post more pictures tomorrow. It's really frustrating with fit being so inconsistent. My boobs are shrinking because my youngest is weaning so I'm trying to purchase some real bras. I have some nursing bras in smaller sizes that are now too big so it's odd that this would be too small but the comments make sense. Could it be because it has so much padding in the bottom and I'm fuller on the bottom? I definitely need some padding though because I have broad shoulders and a round tummy so they look really small in proportion.

Unfortunately sizing between brands (or even between styles/models within the same brand) can be largely varied and frustratingly inconsistent. This can result in one bra at a smaller size being too big and another in a larger size being too small.
Seamless padded bras can be more challenging to fit into as they tend to have less flexibility and rely on a shape match to achieve the ideal fit.
I would suggest going into a store and trying on several to see if you can pinpoint a size that works better for you at the moment.
Based on the band fit here, try some 32 bands and see if they are comfortable, as they should feel more supportive for you.
If you are still weaning, I would hold off on getting too many bras just yet, as your size and shape may change once you're completely done with breastfeeding.

helpfulAgree with brasaremean , this looks like a classic "band too big, cups too small" problem.
A picture from the side would show that the underwire is cutting on breast tissue.
What you mention about feeling empty in the middle sounds like Orange in a Glass situation.I'd suggest going up in cups to E or F and try a smaller band. Go to a store and start trying on those sizes to work it out, because the final fit will depend also a lot on which particular bra you're trying on.

helpfulyes, it appears that your cups are too small and band only slightly too big (guessing on what u say and measurements)... have u "scooped and swooped" your boobs in the cups? it kinda looks like the bottom of ur boobs r not in the bottom of the bra, it looks like the cups r just kinda "on top" of ur boobs. is this the case?

Agreed, though additional pics would be beneficial to assess the fit. The cup depth is 9” and perimeter says 10” which makes me think it’s also too small. And the gore not tacking...
