All of my outdoor cucumber stems (full sun) look like this. there don’t appear to be any bite marks out of any parts of the plants, but the stems are all twisty and one has died. Is this a pest? I live in Richmond VA, USA. We also have tomatoes and peppers in the same area that are doing great. The plants are watered in the early morning before it gets too hot and sunny.

I absolutely LOVE the look of Fifi Chachnil, but the problem is I wear a 32G cup (US; French 85I) and have 44” (112cm) hips, so I am barely outside of their size range. I've accepted I might have to buy online or from a department store and not in a little Paris boutique haha, but I am looking for recommendations of similar designers with slightly larger sizes. I am interested in that specific vintage, feminine, theatrical vibe and high-quality craftsmanship. Not interested in fast fashion recommendations, or plain black cups with some lace thrown on top. Budget is flexible, could be up to $300 per piece for the right set.

Here's a set I'd kill for lol but don't think I could squeeze into, for a vibe reference: https://fifichachnil.com/en/products/soutien-gorge-paradis-2 https://fifichachnil.com/en/products/culotte-minette-4 I like a lot of the floral Bordelle stuff, not the exact same vibe but similar, however it's a little out of my budget at the moment.
