Firstly, the lazuli blue colorway is gorgeous in person. I bought this off an Ebay seller who has several discontinued Empreinte models.
The Grace underwired half cup bra isn't as open I would think for a half cup model. The demi-cup bra is cut lower, but doesn't offer up cleavage as the description or title would imply. It has a 3-section construction gives support, uplift and a rounded shape up until the diagonal seam cuts into my upper-fullness. The cut off gives me a upturned cone-boob effect.
The top seam of the cup is closed and has no stretch, causing quad boobing on the top even. I'm certain ... sizing up would not solve the issue since Empreinte cups run very deep and there are large differences between sizes. The bra technically fits, but this is a shape mismatch on me.
I've tried a couple newer versions of Empreinte demi-cups and they seem to have improved on that. In any case, both newer and old demi-cups with seams remain unflattering on FOT boobs. I suspect they may work well for some FOB busts. Empreinte has since replaced this model with Grace Seamless Lace Bra, which appears to be sold out in most shops.

Wow, that is super deep for a 30F. Closed on top is exactly what I need. I can see how it would be a shape mismatch for you. Beautiful bra though!
