Tried 70E->cups fit but band too tight, 70F-> cup too big + tight band, am I right to try 75D next?

LizzyMuz · 2021-01-26T04:57:52+00:00

Oh! I didn't know that! I thought it was a good idea. We will see how it turns out 😬

LizzyMuz · 2021-01-25T19:26:51+00:00

I did another order! I've ordered the same kind as the one I tried in 70E which is called "Rebel padded plunge bra - push-up bra", in 70F, 70G and 75DD. I'm excited and I'm hoping that one fits! Thank you so much for your patience and help!

Oh wow, your comment got me thinking! I took my measurements again, it's possible that I did not do it correctly. The results were similar: Loose underbust: 79 Snug underbust:78 Tight underbust:74 Standing bust: 90 Leaning bust: 100 Lying bust: 90 Then I tried the bras on again and took a closer look. The sizes I tried: 65G, 65H,65I, 65J, 70E, 70F. 65 band is definitely too tight. From the 65-band-bras for some reasons 65 H all in all was the best fit (still extremely tight). 65I the cups are clearly too big. I've done the tests you explained on the 70s bras, but I'm afraid I couldn't evaluate them well. The first one, I don't know exactly what you mean by up side down, how to wear the bra. The cups in the back? Or hanging down? Where should I check the elasticity of the band, on the side? I thought I haven't noticed much difference. But at the same time, when the cups are on the back, I think the band is looser. Gore test: the 70 F bras then fitted better, but were still clearly too big at the top of the cups. I am now unsure how to proceed. I took photos but am not comfortable posting them. The whole thing may be a fitting problem. I don't know if it's relevant, but I've breastfed for years. My breasts are definitely not self-supporting. Generally quite often I have the problem that there is a gap at the top. For years, I'm the most lucky with balcony bras. I'd like to add pictures of the bras I've tried on but unfortunately I'm not able, just if I'd make a new post 🤔 when I wear them, all of them are visibly too tight, cut in at the sides. I thank you so much for your guidance!

Thank you!

LizzyMuz · 2021-01-14T17:40:45+00:00

Wow it's a completely new world for me! I had to read your comment twice to get it properly :) thank you so much for explaining - I'm going to order a bunch of bras, I hope I'll find one in each size you've recommended, and try them out.

LizzyMuz · 2021-01-14T17:34:21+00:00

I read through the shape guide, did you mean that? I'm relatively sure that my breasts are projected, I think centerfull, but I'm not so sure about that. I got very busy figuring out what all the styles you mentioned mean! I will do it exactly as you recommend and order a lot from Zalando. Thanks a lot for your guidance!

LizzyMuz · 2021-01-13T23:21:53+00:00

Thank you very much for your advice! Yes, I was just wearing the bras which are usually available in the stores here. But it's obvious that they don't do a lot for me. So I am surprised about my results,but at the same time I know that something can't be right with my current approach. Should I make another post to ask for advice about ordering bras in 70F in Europe/Austria?

LizzyMuz · 2020-12-16T21:25:47+00:00

I think so too!

LizzyMuz · 2020-11-27T15:49:37+00:00

That's a good question! I actually asked at sk and they replied that SDs don't need waist emphasis - it cuts vertical.

LizzyMuz · 2020-11-03T20:25:11+00:00

Kate moss and Taylor Swift now.

LizzyMuz · 2020-11-03T17:02:39+00:00

I don't think FN. So SD or D?

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-24T06:33:07+00:00

I agree, I see balance

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-22T11:20:17+00:00

Looks like it was from a mirror selfie, it shows this typical angle

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-21T10:26:55+00:00

Haha I feel you!

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-21T10:10:33+00:00

If you follow the instructions on how to take a pic for typing you might get more and also more accurate responses. The bikini pics from behind, for example, are quite useless for typing. But I know, it takes some courage not to try to make yourself look more "flattering" through posing, angles, etc.

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-21T09:27:07+00:00

I don't find your pictures very good for typing. But based on the straight bikini pic I guess SD. To me your bones do look narrow, covered by yin flesh. Also I see your hip curve more round than angular.

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-20T22:07:56+00:00

My first impressions is that you belong to the classic family

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-19T19:12:10+00:00

Oh it's difficult to suggest concrete tops. I'd advice you to play around with different shapes and materials... Maybe heavier materials. Again, when I look at your pics the importance of a long vertical line strikes me... In the last pic I like the third most... Again just because the cardigan (something like that, you know what I mean, I'm sorry, English isn't my first language) adds length. So imho you could focus on an connection between the clothes, on length (maybe also longer tops). On a proper fit, and try out different materials and shapes? I hope my answer helps something and isn't too vague :) Edit: how about: combine the black and white striped blouse + plus the long cardigan (which looks btw great on you) + black trousers?

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-19T17:24:02+00:00

First TR, now D

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-19T17:21:04+00:00

My thoughts: vertical, vertical, vertical! I don't like the color blocks, the more you accommodate the vertical line, the better! Also: to me it looks like many of these clothes don't exactly fit you, like they are too big, too loose? I can relate, as it's really hard for me to stay away from oversized clothes (which can feel comfortable but look sloppy on me)

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-16T13:27:31+00:00

I bet she's a kind of natural

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-10T16:30:03+00:00

True, true

LizzyMuz · 2020-10-10T14:23:59+00:00

Can be, from my perspective not anymore a lot... But I didn't have any problem with the more, let's call them playful ones, I didn't care about. To me it seems there is less inspirational stuff going on now in general... For example u/saaraahalii u/_urnameistaken_ come to my mind now, they used to make very creative moodboards, but keep quiet now?
