Bra fitting help » Wrong size, wrong style, where to go from here?

Issue resolved
I deciced that I'll give a go to the larger band & cup sizes.
Original problem
This bra is a little bit too tight in the back. That's not the issue though. It's the cups I'm not happy with. My boobs almost stay in the bra and I only have a little quad boob going on. That is, just after I've put everything in place. If I'd wear this bra, I'd have to constantly stuff my boobs back in. Still there's some empty fabric on the cup where the strap starts. If I'd go higher in the cup size (or try a 34H, as this style goes up to H cup) I guess there would be more empty space on the top.
I would love to find a lower center gore bra that would fit well. Any suggestions?

Empty fabric where the straps start is a common issue when you first start wearing new bras in your right size. Don't worry about it, it will sort itself out. Sometimes loosening up the straps helps a bit though.
What I am more concerned about is the wrinkles in the cup fabric at the wires near the centergore.
Usually this has several causes.
- not taking enough care when putting on the bra
- too narrow wires
- wires not quite conforming to the shape of your breasts
- a too tight band that pulls the cup flat
- a too shallow cup with not enough volume for you near the centergoreWhich it is is hard to determine. Please try putting on the bra correctly, straightening out the creases by pulling the cup fabric in a round motion around your breasts. Also insert an extension, this will help determine whether the band pulls the cup flat.
If the quadboob stays the same after you did all this (loosening straps, putting in extension, putting on the bra correctly), try this bra in a 34H.

Please note that Gorgeous bras run tight in the band. You might need a 32HH with other brands. :)

I spent most of my life wearing bras that would gape and seemed too large but after some research found out it actually meant they were too small (in my case several sizes). That bra looks uncomfortably tight and personally I would suspect any gaping to be due to it being small.

Thanks! I hadn't even noticed the wrinkles in the center. I tried the bra on with the extension and the wrinkling was not as bad, but still there was some. Maybe the cup is not deep enough. Also the quad boob effect went down a bit. I guess I'll try 34H next.
