Bra fitting help » Center gore doesn't lay flat. Quad-boob

Issue resolved
Incorrect shape for me and center gore too wide
Original problem
The gore doesn't lay flat and I get some gaping and a little quad-boob on my larger side. If I pinch the gore closer it fixes the gaping. Do I need a different style or size? This is currently my best fitting bra I'm posting it so it will maybe help with my other fit advice issues. Thanks guys!

helpfulI'm not seeing any quadboob. I think the gore on this bra is just too wide for you, thus it won't lay flat. You may be able to overlap the gore (bigger side on top, so you'd detach the left cup and sew it onto the right.) This guide from bratabase's own kate166 shows how to do this. https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/comments/if2qyr/project_guide_overlapping_bra_gore/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
You may also want to try putting a cookie in the left cup if the gaping bothers you.

I don see a problem with the gore or any quadding. But, I don’t think it is the right shape for you.

The gore is just slightly being lifted, I only just noticed myself. The quad-boob isn't noticeable unless I wear a t-shirt. So it's not bad it's just weird. But you may be right that it's more the shape, I don't know what shape I need.

Thank you! I definitely want to try that. I'd like my boobs to look a bit more even lol. Not one side fully filling/going over if I move wrong and the other gaping as it settles. I've tried cookies before and they sadly didn't work in this bra for me.
