So this is my first time with an S cut from EM; I'd read it was a good idea to go up one cup size to get the depth needed, but I don't think I needed to. I experience a small amount of gap at the top of the cups without the corrective cookie pads. The cookie pads completely correct it in my larger breast, the smaller one still has it. The area of the cups near the gore is fine, sits flush as expected; the gap starts about 3" from the straps, similar to the Freya @Deco.
The wire width is perfect tho', so maybe the S cut ... won't ever give me a perfect fit, which is ok. This one is pretty damn close, and with the CHP and BM cuts giving me a perfect fit I'm not really complaining.
As for the look/feel, it's so nice to have a neutral bra that's not plain or one color. (Similarly, why I love the Panache Envy.) This one certainly does look glamorous; it has a wonderful vintage asthetic, with wee pompons on the lace bow at the center. I feel like this bra was designed with the classic 1940s movie star in a fancy robe/bedroom accoutrements look in mind.
This is only with a few minutes wearing/testing it out, so I'll be certain to update my review with longer wear if an issue presents itself.
As a note the matching panties run slightly small/tight, probably due to the lace construction. They too have the adorable pompons.
