Bra fitting help » Cups tiny bit small, suggest different size and/or brand
Panache » Envy Balconnet Bra (7285) » 32E 32:6
Issue resolved
Received an Envy 30F - perfect fit!
Original problem
Fits pretty well on the tightest hook but I have a bit of spill on the top after S&S that isn't very noticeable because the lace cup approx 1cm in cuts a small bit. Also the left girl is narrower and ever so slightly bigger than the right one which is wider.

Does it still cut in after you've been wearing it for a couple hours? Sometimes my fit changes a bit as I move around during the day. The standard advice for cutting in is to go up a cup size. Since you're wearing this on the tightest hooks, maybe try a 30F?
Is this really as blue as it looks in your photos? Such a pretty color.

Agree on giving a 30F a try, but also, how are the straps? Are they too tight and thereby causing the quadding?

bustyand I loosened the straps and tried them on again - it seems that my right still strains a bit but the left which is a little narrower and also sits lower is a little loose.

Beautiful color indeed!
Looking at the measurements you entered (cup depth versus your V-H-L perimeters) it shouldn't be too small. And the stretch lace already gives you some asymmetry allowance.Visually -in my opinion- it also doesn't look like enough bulge or strain to justify sizing up, but that's a personal decision of course (some people prefer some wrinkling on their smaller breast, over some strain on their larger breast).
I second the advice of letting out some tension in the straps if possible, to see if that helps?
And yes if you're wearing it on the tightest hooks; it may be worth sister sizing to a 30F!

I did end up loosening my straps a bit and the right still strains a bit but the left is a little loose. It's definitely one of those things that you notice once you've seen it but my concern is just that going up a cup will be too large.
I've got a cart with a 30F Envy in it and a few other brands to try!

helpfulSo personally, the only issue I see is the cup width being too wide for your roots. I'm not seeing any quadding, but pictures can be unreliable sometimes.

Oh, I never thought about that, I'll have to look into something slightly smaller. Thanks!

It still cuts in the same, which is to say not a lot but enough for me to notice, but sometimes they will fit better on days I am moving a lot and my armpit rolls show up again. I will try a 30F!
It is this blue, it was on sale/clearance so I don't think they make this color anymore :(
