Issue resolved
Even though it's far from a perfect fit, it is comfortable and doesn't look too bad, so I'm still going to wear it. Thank you, everyone who helped!
Original problem
I bought this bikini before I lost weight and now I am getting wrinkling in the cup. It's hard to see with the pattern, but it is creasing near the center seam and by the trim at the top. This was never a perfect fit to start with. I had a tiny bit of wrinkling near the center seam before I lost the weight and it was almost too small. The cups are also too wide and I have a little empty space near the wire at the bottom. If it were a bra, I would have given up on it long ago, but I am picky with style and patterns when it comes to swimwear and I like the overall look and despite all the issues, it is still comfortable and reasonably supportive. So is this passable? Any recommendations for other swimwear options, considering my narrow, projected shape?

helpfulI think it looks great!!! I recently tried a Freya bikini top, and though Freya bras usually doesn't work well for my shape, their swim line seems to fit a little better. I've never tried any of the Curvy Kate bikinis.

Thanks for the info! I order from ASOS rather frequently, but a lot of the swimwear they carry only goes up to an F or G cup and my ideal size right now seams to be 30GG. I am actually waiting on a few orders of swimwear in sister sizes that I will attempt to alter if they seem right otherwise.
