An astonishing bra fit find! How not to have your armpits poked by underwires!

This AM I put one of my favorite large cup bras, but set it one column of its closure tighter. Before today, once I got this bra in the cup size it fits me best in, J, I resigned my self to wearing it until I got home and changing. This bra fits and lifts great, but poked my underarm. Now wearing it set one column tighter, it does not!

For some reason I find two Panache bras that appear to be the same, yet are listed at Figleaves in 2 different placesa and have differnt names One is called Super Bra Tango II Underwire Balcony Bra, while this one, in its pretty sky blue below, is called Tango underwire Balconette bra. They Appear to be the same. Does anyone reading know what the difference between a balcony and a balconette bra is?

I wonder if this happens to be in Bratique Helene’s wealth of bra fitting knowledge. I am saving asking her for a quieter day here. It likely is, I did not have the time to read it all. Her blog post of 3/30/09 features Books on Boobs. I hope to get back to read more of that over the weekend!

    Balcony and blaconnette are synonyms. I'm pretty sure the bras you refer to are one in the same, simply using disparate terminology.

    Good for you to have found a solution to a source of pain. Bravo.

    They are same! If I were you, I'll not wear that bra any more. It cause the pain and that's not good for your health.
