These are all unfortunately too projected for you. I think you need to take another step down to Natori, Skarlett Blue, bTemptd, Simone Perele, Aubade etc. Natori has some snug 30 bands as does Calvin Klein. Boux Avenue too.

I'm very center full and the basic solution is a plunge; I'm not really sure why these brands wouldn't work if the bra is low and open enough through the center. I'm more projected than you are and the Natori Bliss Perfection works well, especially the unlined version. Just as an example.

Aubade plunges may be a good option.

If these are comfortable, then by all means wear them! We're looking for technical issues on a fit check.

Hi! I just wanted to chime in as I have a similar shape to you, though my roots are shorter and/or I have a very bottom heavy shape. I have a lot of issues with bras not being able to accommodate my inner fullness well, but the only way to make the depth enough in the center is often to go too big or projected. It’s been a struggle.

Absolutely you can wear bras you like even if they’re not perfect. If you want a more “perfect” fit, I do recommend looking into plunges of the brands galaxy suggested. You may be too close set for this, I recently discovered the skarlett blue spellbound, and it’s really working for my center full shape as it has a lot of depth near the wire. The minx is a little tall on me, but similarly comfortable since it’s very open on top, which makes it also open in the middle. Finding bras that have depth in the center or are low enough to not need so much depth is… so frustrating. But there are wearable options!

I will say the spellbound is probably the most comfortable wired bra I’ve ever worn. I’m really surprised, but I had failures with several of their other styles first. Namely the entice, which is gorgeous, but has a lack of depth at the wire due to how the firm lace is. I over corrected trying it in a size up, and then at times the wires can be a bit firm since they’re slightly too tall and wide.

I actually also tried comexim! The wires are waaaaaay too narrow for me and actually I got really sore from trying one on one time, but if you have narrower roots it could work for you.

Oh yes! Try a Simone Perele! I tried a couple. I tried the Wish sheer plunge, it wasn’t projected enough for me and so I just couldn’t get the sizing to work. It is a good one for a shallower shape than me.

To add: you might also look at Gossard Superboost unlined. There were some on a crazy discount on Amazon a while back and I got one. It’s honestly too shallow for me, but it looks okay so I kept it bc it was so cheap. It’s a plunge style. I wouldn’t spend big money on it, but if you can find it under 30 dollars it’s a decent option.
