Bra fitting help » why does the gore fold?

Issue resolved

cups being too separate caused gore to fold

Original problem

I think this bra fits quite well and am only returning it because I don't love the shape it gives (I'm really searching for a nude tee shirt bra anyway, and the seams show through with this one). It's a little big in the band, but I expected that. My main question about this is why the gore folds on top. This has happened to me with other bras too. I assume it's because the cups are just slightly too far separated. I didn't realize that I had much tissue in the center near the gore, but now I realize that that's because my older bras weren't tight enough in the band to notice that the center of the underwires were actually cutting into breast tissue. Also, how do the wires look on the sides (if you can tell where my root is)?
