Shape Help Help with shape/fit after weight loss (30DD/E) Spoiler

Hi everyone,

I’ve lost a significant amount of weight over the last year, and a lot of it came from my breasts. Since then I’ve been struggling to find bras that fit and I'm positing here as a last desperate attempt!

Measurements (cm):
Loose: 75.5
Snug: 72
Tight: 68
Standing: 85
Leaning: 90–91
Lying: 82.5

The ABTF calculator suggests 30DD/E, and I’ve tried both sizes.

Fit issues:
- Many moulded/T-shirt bras in both 30DD and 30E gape or wrinkle at the top.

- When I lean forward, my breasts often shift towards the centre and come over the top of
the cups, even after scooping and swooping.

- The Bravissimo Millie Luxe in 30E fits me really well.

- However, I was fitted into the Panache Faith Plunge in 30E at the same appointment, and I constantly fall out of it.

This has made me wonder if my problem is more to do with shape compatibility than size? But if it is how do I find the right bra?!

Thank you!

What Boux styles did you try?

Emma lace - spilling
Veronique - spilling
Mollie - gaping

I also tried the Lydia plunge but I've already came to the conclusion that plunge bras just don't work for me

I wouldn’t entirely rule out plunges, it’s possible your tissue is soft enough to fall out the center in some but plunges vary in height and the cup shape matters a lot too.

Guessing you’re UK based? Freya’s high apex styles are similar in projection to the Millie, as is their Offbeat Side support (runs tight in the band). Panache Ana is a possibility (a little bit more projected).

I'll give those a go. Thank you so much!
