Bra fitting help » Went up cup sizes, but Is this band still too tight?


Cleo » Hettie Balconnet Bra (9011) » 32FF 32:8

Issue resolved

Tried bigger cup sizes

Original problem

Is this size still to tight?
I have been trying different sizes of bras and 32DDD or E didn't work for me because it felt too tight. People suggested I go up two cup sizes and I did, but the band still feels tight. This one left marks after I wore it for 15 minutes tops. Theoretically this band size should fit my measurements, so why doesn't it feel right?

Should I go up a band size?

Otherwise, this bra is getting a lot closer to fitting than others. The cup sides, top and bottom fit.

My other problem would be this little bit of skin folding (idk what to call it) near the straps. Its in one of the pictures. Not sure if this is supposed to be there or not.

Also, this bra isn't super supportive by virtue of being an unlined bra. So looking for reccomendations for something that will fit my full on bottom not super full on top boobs, inner fullness I think.
