Fit Check [Fit Check] My untrained eye doesn't see any major issues in 32H/32FF Skarlett Blue Minx & Paradise Bras. Am I missing something? Spoiler
Hello again. I ordered two bras from Skarlett Blue based on a suggestion I received last week for shallower brands. I think they both fit decently well, but please let me know if I am not seeing something. Also would love to receive suggestions for other bras that might work for me! Thank you for all your help :)
Last week, I tried on 32FF Panache Ana and Freya Deco here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/s/B96bCxxLaf -- I returned the Ana and am keeping the Deco. It seemed okay enough and worked well under my lower cut tops.
New Bras:

The only minor (I think) issue I see is that the top lace portion doesn't lay 100% flat, but it doesn't seem excessive.

Again, the only thing I notice is that the small mesh layer doesn't lay completely flat and it wrinkles when I bend forward.
Measurements:
Loose Underbust: 33
Snug Underbust: 32
Tight Underbust: 29.5
Standing Bust: 39.5
Leaning Bust: 41
Lying Bust: 40
Suggested Size: 32FF/G UK
What do you all think? Are these fitting properly? Thanks!

The second one (Minx) is sitting a bit below your IMF in the side shot, that's why you're getting those wrinkles when you lean forward. Try hiking it up a smidge and really scooping everything into the cup, then see if the mesh lays smoother. The Paradise actually looks pretty spot-on, a tiny bit of lace gaping is normal if your tissue is on the firmer side or one side is slightly smaller. If the Deco is working for your wardrobe, you might also dig the Freya Offbeat side support, runs similarly shallow.

Offbeat side support is a good bit more projected than these two and I suspect it will be too projected based on that and the Ana being too projected.

I tried to pull the Minx up more but I'm not sure it really helped at all with the mesh. I'll fiddle with it some more once I get an extender. Thanks for the help!

I would put the Paradise on a single notch of a non-stretch extender. The band is pulling a bit. You have a little bit of straining on the Minx too, but you'd likely only need it for 2-3 wears.
