The cups aren't right for me, they're too small and I would need to go up at least one cup size. Like many bras at this size, the upper corner of the cup digs into my armpit. The underwire comes up too high under the arms and digs in, but it does encompass all my breast tissue. The center gore is far too high, which is disappointing because I was looking forward to a plunge in my size, but it seems as you go up in size, they always bring the gore up entirely too high and defeat the whole idea of a plunge.

Cup width 9" and depth 12" is a depth ratio 1.33, really shallow. Have you searched the Bratabase using depth ratio? It might give you some ideas. For instance, here are 40G (UK) sorted by depth ratio,
http://www.bratabase.com/browse/by-size/40:9/measurements/?direction=-&hide_discontinued=False&order_by=cup_depth_ratio&filter_by=cup_depth_ratio
and the there are a lot of relatively deep Elomi styles at the top of this chart, and shallow styles on page 4.
