Hello, all how is everyone? I am closer to the “unicorn” I think. Hope everyone is well. I have scored an elomi Caitlyn nude in 40 FF UK, which is 40 H US, I think. Will upload photos soon. Worn with an extender, because I needed the wide wires that only F cup plus affords in this brand. The cups are not full on top, but it is my sleeping bra, to facilitate migration. I saw the process from a user here, on their blog. So far so good I thought the “break” of my breasts was too high, and learned so, after wearing my 44C for a couple of weeks. I began to have pains on the sides, and underneath the wires, where I assume the underwire was resting on glands. There is a noticeable crease in the lower middle of the cup, I hope that the crease will go away as the new break is formed. I again want to thank all members that welcomed me, and helped, as I would not have been able to figure some of these points out on my own.. now, another question for the most learned among us members.... many thanks to @mamapagan for the wire width chart link she sent, but from my research, due to my shape, I may need high wings, and taller underwire. Is there a similar chart to the width chart, for heights of underwires? And would a plunge be s better fit for my shape than a full coverage? I seem to still have some overspill on the sides.
An observation: we went swimming a few days ago, and I had heard that breasts “floated” in water. I didn’t disbelieve it, but I have now experienced it. It was a strange sensation, something that I had not previously experienced, but, super cool, if I do say so myself! An interesting sensation, to say the least. (It was a private pool, so no one was offended, as my girlfriend and I were the only people there). As I get closer to a proper fit, I will pass on what I have learned, and will try to assist any person, who I think will accept my assistance. Again thanks!

In the database, you can search by size and then sort by wing height which may help.
Here's an example, using the 40FF:
https://www.bratabase.com/browse/by-size/40:8/measurements/?direction=&order_by=wing_height
This only reflects the data entered, so it is far from complete for all brands/bras available but is a starting point to know which brands and styles tend to have higher wings.
Also, looking for bras listed as side support (Fantasie brand has several models like this) will possibly help.
