Issue resolved
Not sure what to put here
Original problem
I'm not sure I understand the criteria for the underwire "fitting" or not. I don't think it pokes me and it doesn't feel like it's wrinkling on the sides. But it does wrinkle on the side quite a bit if I bend forward. Is this normal?

helpfulThe criteria for underwire fit are:
- fairly closely matching the outline of your breast, sitting at or close to the outer outline of your breast tissue
- Comfort (does it hurt or annoy you by sitting in an awkward place? If the answer is yes, it does not fit)
- Support (if it sits on top of breast tissue, the bra will not keep your chest stable and supported; if it sits too far out from the outer breast crease or too far under the inframammary fold, the cup will not lift and support the breast tissue)Visually this appears OK. How does it feel?

helpfulI'm not the best judge of a good fit, but these cups just look way too tall for you. Most of the cups on my bras are around 5.5" wide with wire length around 7 or so inches, so 5.3"/9.7" equals one tall cup. I have high set breasts and I get similar wrinkling on the sides when the cup is too tall... the tissue is allowed to fall forward in the cup leaving the sides of the cup empty. Overall, I don't think it's the best bra for your shape.

helpfulI agree with thelittleone . The cups look too tall in the center of the cups. But, they are not too tall on the outside of the cups.

From the front they look tall but from the side the cups look good. The bra fits but is it cutting in on the top half of your chest. If it is comfortable I wouldn't worry about it. But if it's not comfortable then you could find a better bra.
