I bought this one lightly used at the same time as the turquoise one in the same size. This one fits tighter in the band as well as larger in the cup - more like a 32GG - which means that my cups overfloweth. The band isn't stretchy but it's solid.
It is absolutely gorgeous, although the straps are curiously wide. They're all ribbony and pretty, but they are wider than I've seen on anything but a Freya.
The cups/wing area comes up a bit higher than my other EM's, which makes it not quite as comfy after 10-12 hours as my others but it's not cutting off my arms.
I will be extra cautious about my jewelry and using the fine-mesh lingerie bag in the wash because the lacey green overlay fabric is begging to be snagged.
The shape is up-front & round, but almost minimized. It's nice, but I do prefer the lift & projection of the CHP style.

Looking at how you fit with your unpadded bras, I wonder if you shouldn't technically also be wearing two sizes smaller or something. Padded bras are so odd - you look like you're getting so much lift, but it also has so much coverage. And the depth is a whole inch more here than in the 85 J. I'm not saying it looks like it doesn't fit or anything, I'm just trying to figure out how this all works with EM bras =/
