Interventions for the empty of boob....

Are there any bra ladies who would like to help me? I saw another thread where statistically recommend the freya patsy half cup. I just ordered a few sizes to try and I've found one I quite like that I'm going to keep. It's not perfect, but it's a million times better than the one I had on earlier. So I'm now wondering what other styles to try. I have very low 'empty' boobs, after possibly 5st of weight loss. When I measure I get 32/38. When I took the upper measure I did tug the tape gently to make it fit round a little, as if I let things hang as is I'd probably end up with another 2 inches and huge voluminous empty cups to go with.... In the patsy, the 32e and the 30f, fit the best, but I think the smaller band size has the edge, so that's what I'm keeping.

My question is, what other styles should I try? The freya is nice, but still slightly too loose along the top edge, although overall it looks much better than anything I've had on in ages. What else is out there? I'd really love a bra that looks relatively smooth/seam free under a t shirt/sheer type top etc. And I'd also love to try something padded, if they exist in my size. More balconettes would be good too. Thanks!

If Freya Patsy half cup works, then Cleo Maddie should be good as well. It is my favourite everyday bra.

Mimi Holliday super plunge style is good for bottom heavy boobs as well, though they are not cheap.

Thanks leedy. I've never heard of mimi holliday before, they look very lovely and sexy, if a little bit pricey for just now and they do appear to have the odd style that goes to 30f.

I got a mini Holliday one in their sale recently for about £24 reduced from nearly £60. It's lovely.

They show up new with tags on Ebay sometimes as well, once you know your size.

I also ordered a couple of Heidi Klum bras as recommended by felas and cakes. There's not much available in big sizes but I tried a 30f and 32e. Both were too small - looks like I need a 32f in this brand. But I didn't reorder a size up as the shape was still much better in the patsy. It's a shame as those bras have lovely narrow straps and they even go in the washing machine.
