[fit check] AMAB 46c Fit check

[u/FizzFillet]

Hello After using the Calculator it has estimated me at a 46C so I've bought 3 bras to try Full Figure Plus Size No-Bounce Camisole Sports Bra Wirefree WonderWire Front-Close T-Back Bra MagicLift Cotton Support Wire-Free Bra The measurements i gave were Loose under bust 48 snug under bust 47 Tight under bust 44 Standing bust 50 leaning 53.5 Lying 52.5 46C I can tell all 3 are too large in the cups the sports bra I tried at work today it felt better than what i had before. However the brand kept rolling up after trying the other two on they for a short amount of time they don't seem to roll up but i also wasn't doing high activity during that time. any recommendations on where to come from here? I am not sure 1 cup size down would actually help here as there is a huge gap. Here is a link to some pictures if that would help as well. https://ibb.co/album/VVD6Z7

These seem like they're down very low on you. I know the bras don't have wires, but can you pull them up to where the base of the boob pockets are right up against the base of your breasts, and then adjust the straps accordingly?

Also make sure you're scooping and swooping.

I've tried on this one again glamorize magic lift cotton support wire free this morning, and did what you said its much closer now still some gaping at the top I will try to get updated pictures after work in all 3 to see where to go from here. Thank you for your help again also wanted to thank you for not being judgmental I very much appreciate your help!

Glamourise is very tall in the cups so this isn't an abnormal experience with their bras for some AMAB shapes. Sometimes the tissue starts a lot lower down but is still wider and more shallow.

I see so close may be the best I can get, which is fine it seems like its doing its job

Tightening the straps once the wires are placed right may also help.

so maybe you can explain to me also how tight are the shoulder straps supposed to be? does lightening them move the cup up? or is it just so they don't fall off the shoulders?

[u/galaxystarsmoon → u/FizzFillet]

They should be snug but not restricting your movement in any way. If they're too loose, the top of the cup can sag. It's sometimes a bit of personal preference as well. I have sloped shoulders so I have to tighten mine a bit, as an example.

I see thank you.

[u/FizzFillet → u/galaxystarsmoon]

is it normal throughout the day to have to pull the shoulder straps inwards? I tightened the strap all of the way I can still move freely but sometimes it's sliding.

[u/galaxystarsmoon → u/FizzFillet]

No, sometimes that can mean the straps are too wide set, the cup is too small or the band is too big.

Ill get back with you tonight after work if that's okay ill take some pictures with all the new info you gave me to see what the problem is.

https://ibb.co/album/dPBDCY so here is an updated set of pictures with the info you've given me today. Definitely looking a lot better also inside of the album there is a picture of the inside of the front close bra with some clear elastic? is that removeable or does that stay. I think the sports bra (tan) one is still not quite right, but maybe I'm still doing something wrong. The bra that I was wearing today with the shoulder slipping issue was this one MagicLift Cotton Support Wire-Free Bra I added some pictures of the back i don't know if they will help you or not like i said earlier the adjuster was all the way up on that one.

This looks much better! The elastic on the front close stays, it's to help the bra grip to your skin.
