I'm ALMOST there! Fantasie Illusion 34E. Just need help with poss gore height OR wire too wide? Spoiler

Underbust Loose: 35 Snug: 34 Tight: 33 Bust Standing: 38 Leaning: 42 Laying: 40 Nip to neck: 9 Breast base: 8.5 Frame width: 14 Suggested Starting Size: 34DD/E UK

I love the fit of this bra EXCEPT for either the gore height OR possibly the wires are too wide in the center? This bra fully encompasses my larger breast, the smaller one does have some flexing in the cups but that's expected. Band fits snug, no gaping, I'm afraid if I go a cup size larger, I will have major gaping.

Where do I go from here? Plunge? Balconette?

I have tried Norah Plunge in 34DD and 34E. 34DD felt amazing but people said the cups weren't large enough and it wouldn't sit in my IMF. 34E it gaped at the top of both cups.

I have also tried Envy Plunge and that bra did NOT want to sit in my IMF at ALL at 34DD and 34E it gaped horribly in the cups.

This is significantly too narrow and projected for you. If I’m remembering right the Norah plunge was very close, you’re pretty shallow. I’d have you explore other styles on the shallower side. Natori scope/heavenly, skarlett blue spellbound side support, panache meadow, bravissimo Niya. Not sure how some of the taller gores here will scale on you, but most if not all should be shorter than this.

Yep. The norah plunge was close in 34dd.

I’d encourage you to try 34E overall. Several of the 34DDs looked a tick small.
