Now for the cups—the heart of the matter. You want your breasts to sit fully inside the cups, with no overflow, no gaping, and no weird quad-boob action. Quad-boob is a cute name, but it’s a crimson flag that your cup is too small.
On the flip side, if the fabric wrinkles or puckers like an accordion, the cup is too big. You should fill the cup smoothly, like a perfect scoop of ice cream. Also, check the underwire: it should lie flat against your sternum in the center. No hovering, no poking—just a peaceful coexistence with your ribcage.
The Center Gore: The Handshake Zone
The center piece between the cups (called the gore, which sounds like a fantasy novel character) should lie flat against your chest. If it’s floating away like a tiny UFO, your cups are too small or the band is too loose. It’s not supposed to be a trampoline for your cleavage.
You should be able to almost forget it’s there. If it’s digging into your sternum, leave a note of complaint and try a different size. Your sternum is not a pincushion.
