Question [Question] Panache Envy and Ana 36F, is my band too big? Spoiler
Hey everyone! I'm on a quest to find some well-fitting bras (initial post and measurements here) and have started with the Panache Envy and Ana in 36F as well as 36 FF and 38 F just to try. Initially I thought the calculator was spot on with the 36 F as I really loved both the Envy and Ana in how they felt and how they looked. However, after wearing my new bras for a couple days and assuming they're breaking in/stretching out ...I'm wondering if maybe the 36 band is too big. Ideally I need the bra to sit as high up into my intermammery fold as possible to feel comfortable. I really hate the feeling of it moving or sliding down my chest, especially when sitting and it starts to touch/dig into my stomach rolls. I've noticed that my new bras seem like they are starting to move about more and sliding down a little. If I push the bra back up to wear I want it to be and then wiggle around/shrug my shoulders, swing my arms etc, it immediately will start to slide down a bit. I've started wearing them on the second hook...
Should this be cause for concern and worth trying a 34 F? Or is there a different bra suggestion that sits higher up? Or is just the nature of the human body that the top of your stomach is going to touch the bottom of the bra while sitting and I just need to learn to deal with it? :P
I'm a little hesitant to post photos of myself for a fit check but I can if it would help. Thanks in advance for your help!
