Narrow chamois?

@ cyclists who wear women’s bibs:

Does anyone have any recs for bibs with chamois that are relatively narrow in the not butt area? I’m desperately seeking a brand with padding that isn’t so wide that it cuts horizontally into my legs in a highly uncomfortable way!

I’ve tried rapha and assos and both apply so much pressure to the insides of my thighs that it’s painful during and after a long ride. I have a pair of terry cycling winter padded pants and the chammy feels amazing, not too thick of padding and not too wide - I suspect because they’re a female owned/designed brand? But I’m looking for some sleeker and less patterned designs in more muted colors (and I do tend to prefer a slightly thinner chamois). I haven’t tried maap or pns yet.

What is working for you all?
