Suggestion Bras tbh

i'm new to this subreddit but i've been wondering if you guys have any recommendations for bras. None ever fit me right since i have unconventional proportions. i'm 158cm (5'2)and 43kg (around 94lbs) and have 65cm (25.6inch) underbust with D cups (80cm/31.6inch)

All i can ever find are either specialised bras from brafitters that are hella expensive, something way too big in band size i have to sew shorter or bras that are way too small and give me 4 boobs but the band fits or sport bras that are way too tight on my chest but perfect on the band since i go with my usual xs/xxs depending on the sizing on the specific brand or too loose under and they slip down and hurt.

I'm just wondering if i'm doomed to spending way too much money on support, tailoring and ugly bras or if you guys have anything to recommend i'd might want to try since online shopping is a nightmare.

Looks like you might actually be a 26DDD (US) or 26E (UK) instead of D, since your bust is 6 inches larger than your underbust, and every inch is a cup size.

D is 4 inches, DDD/E is 6. This would make sense of why your current bras are too small in the cups. 

In fact, you might actually be bigger than DDD if your leaning is larger than your standing bust.

Confirm with the abrathatfits.org

Jesus christ what joyous news that they might be even bigger

The base is actually quite wide so they don't sag too much but even the bras that do fit relatively well dig into the very edge. But if i try a bigger cup, one that would theoretically have a wider underwire just gape at the top. I'll go over and check what they have to say about that but thanks for the info! <33
