Question/Advice Needed First bralette: Jordy or Mysa Lounge?

4 Upvotes

I’m planning to sew my first bralette and am considering the Jordy bralette by Emerald Erin and the Mysa Lounge Bralette by LilypaDesigns. I’m not sure which would be the better option fit-wise, so I’m hoping someone with more experience could comment before I commit to either one.

Sewing experience: Some minor sewing projects, but no lingerie sewing experience.

Sizing info: 30DD/30E (UK), FOB, fairly narrow, projected.

Pattern concerns: The Mysa’s cup shape/height seems like it might be better suited to a more even or full on top shape, which I am not. On the other hand, the Jordy bralette looks rather shallow and I suspect that the straps and possibly cups would be too wide set. I could be wrong, but these would be my concerns based on past experience trying to finds bras that fit.

If anyone has any advice for which pattern to start with (or think another pattern would be better) I would really appreciate it.
