The regular Deco does not work at all for me- it gaps massively at the top edge. So I was incredibly happy to find that the Deco half cup does work- the cups are the perfect height and so comfortable!
I love half cups in general now because with my shape I often get lots of gaping at the top edge of fuller cup styles. I am also always on the lookout for lightly padded or molded bras. It is a symptom of wearing mass market bras for many years and being more comfortable in such styles.
The push-up pads don't really give cleavage so much as add girth and can unfortunately make you look wider from the front. However they feel plush- as if your bust is propped up on pillows- perfect for cold winter days, haha. As is common knowledge with Freya bras, I recommend sizing down if you are between band sizes.

Read your post this morning, then received the same bra in the mail this afternoon and I'm having the same problem. Very slight quad when I swoop and scoop vigorously, but gaping at the gore almost constantly. :( The height of the cups does work better for me though.., if I could just fill out the center gore area! Ugh
