Bra fitting help » Wrinkling in cups: everything else fine
Curvy Kate » Dreamcatcher Balcony Bra (CK2301) » 28DD 28:5
Issue resolved
I decided there was just too much empty space for it to be comfortable for me, so I'm going to try sizing down, looking for slightly wider wires, and shallower shapes to see what helps me more. Thanks everyone!
Original problem
There is lots of wrinkling towards the center of the cup and the top of the cup does not touch my breasts. The gore tacks and feels great, doesn't poke. However it looks like it MIGHT be a tiny small but it doesn't bother me so I don't think it's that large of an issue.

helpfulI dont see anything that looks small to me, unless you feel the wire is sitting on tissue on the outer edges of your breasts?
It looks to me like its snug on the bottom and outsides of the bra, and loose towards the top and the center. I think you are very full-on-bottom, and the cup expects more tissue above the apex - like your breast doesnt mound up above your nipple.
If the wrinkling does not bother you, and you feel there is enough support, it might be ok to keep. if you like it enough to wear it. You honestly might want to try one size down? I also hope we cna find some ppl to recommend more FOB-friendly bras in that size range

helpfulI'm uneasy about the width on you, the width of the upper half of your breast roots (many people don't think of this as part of the boob but it is still breast tissue that you have higher on your torso) and the mismatch between cup depth and lying breast perimeter makes me think this is too narrow for you. If it is sitting on breast tissue on your sides, in time it will hurt even if you don't feel it now. I would look for a much wider cup, with a shallower shape to match your natural shape. Maddie or similar Cleos are a typically good choice for people with this shape!

helpfulIt's very pretty - the oranges look like cute half tangerines. It's quite open on top, whereas your shape is quite full on bottom, so it's a bit of a shape mismatch, but if you like it and it's comfortable, keep it for a bit and see how you get on! Do you tend to have problems with high gores digging into your tissue at the middle and center of your boobs? If higher gores can be ok on you I would suggest you try the Cleo Kali in 28DD
