Hello hello, previous fit check with measurements here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/s/Ubf0TuAUVZ

I tried a 34H Panache Envy and found that I had wrinkling/space at both the top and the bottom of the bra + poke in my armpits. Kind commenter suggested a bra with more projection or a smaller cup size could help. I tried Freya Fancies 34GG and found less room at the bottom but still a good amount of room at the top. The strap comes away from my chest and wrinkled at the top in the lace. But the lower or more narrow underwire felt a lot better in terms of comfort. The band also fit a lot better for some reason.

Wondering if this is a root height thing where it expects me to be a bit fuller at the top? Maybe I’m not that projected after all? Any bra or fit suggestions very welcome. I don’t really like the wrinkling and I wanna wear fitted shirts without the wrinkles coming through.

I just started with this stuff and my initial measurements check is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/s/ZDRp6nvJ39

Loose band: 34.5

Snug band: 33

Tight band: 32

Standing bust: 43.5

Leaning bust: 48

Laying down bust: 44

I got 34H Panache Envy to try on. I was really happy initially since the cup fit really well and I haven’t had that in a very long time. But the band is definitely too tight. I tried the upside down and backwards thing (like a cape!) and it was still too tight. I added an extender which helped a lot and I could evaluate other parts of the bra. I noticed that the wire was kind of uncomfortably digging in my armpits and the straps were often falling off (a problem I’ve kind of always had with bras).

I’m still very confused about shape, so I don’t have much to offer there. I will say that I usually fall out the top of bras (36DDD Victoria’s Secret), and I found the lace lining at the top of this bra to be a breath of fresh air.

In my measurement check, someone kindly suggested I try a 34H, 34GG, and a 34HH. But based on the above, I’m wondering if I need a bigger band size? Or if I need to alter the bra somehow?

Any insight appreciated. 🙂

EDIT: I read more about shape and I believe I have a projected shape with even fullness, if that helps.
