This bra has a very pretty design and soft materials. Unfortunately it's not a good fit for me due to the tall and hard wires.

Beautiful but not the right size for me. A waste of money having to custom order it and then not being able to sell it on.

Lifts beautifully. I love this bra, and I love that you can change the straps. Only thing that I don't like is the super stretchy band, there are four rows and I prefer to wear it at the second tightest hook for best fit.

I purchased this from another member ages ago but reviewing 12/2018, it fits my 32H/HHish self pretty darn well without the cookies in place. 4rows of 3 hooks, fully adjustable straps, well made, reasonably unobtrusive under clothing, and comfy. I just have to be careful not to snag the lace overlay.

I will no longer do business directly with EM because their customer service is patently awful. However, I will buy them used, which is how I got this hott number.
There's some serious vavoom with this bra and it is stunning. It fits like a 32/34 band so it fits great now (2nd hooks), but EMs do stretch pretty quickly so I'll be stalking it in a 70HH.
The straps aren't as wide-set as my other EMs, which is a great thing, but I found the wires to be wider than my others. That's not terrible, because it's still very comfortable and provides fab lift/support, but I prefer the more narrow ones.
The lace on the cups is not good under tight/thin clothing - but who cares?!
Update 12/2018: Recently resurrected from the too-small stash and I still love it (again) in my current roughly 32H/HH UK size.

Honestly, this one never fit. The band was fine but it was a cup or two too small. But it was really pretty and I hadn't begun to cope with probably being a special order size.

This bra is gorgeous in real life, but it runs small.

Has all the things I like about the S cut - great lift, nicely rounded shape - and in a very versatile basic color. But the cups are not as tall as my other S cuts. Great choice for someone with shorter roots.

Not sturdy enough material in the cups. The band is very good material though, very sturdy. I bought a cup size too big, would've fit better in the 75GG but the straps are not narrow enough; they painfully dig into my armpits. Otherwise nice bra. Ewa is going to make a more sturdy BM in the future so that enough to skip this one.

Gorgeous bra. Worn it a lot and gives my boobs a great shape. However, due to weight loss it no longer fits me and that is why I'm selling it.

A gorgeous bra but not for tshirts due to the lacy ruffle and lace trim at the top of the cups. Fits like a 32H/34GG, so true to size. Very well made, as usual. Straps are wide set, fully adjustable. Interior of cups has removable cookies.

Fits like a UK 32H/34GG (true to size). It's another lovely, high quality bra from EM and she really appears to be stepping up her sizing consistency lately. The band has 4 columns, the straps are fully adjustable and the interior of the cups has removable cookies.
My only quibble is how wide set the straps are on the S style. Although they don't cut in, they also don't offer the same stellar lift as the CHP.

The band is very firm, I'd say it runs a size small, like a tight 32 but I will probably need an extender until it is broken in. The top lace portion is stretchy and lined with a slightly less stretchy material. The lower cup is the same lace lined with a nonstretchy black mesh. The cup closes off at an angle that is much more suited to more even or full on bottom breasts.

It gives me a more pointed shape than round because my breasts get pushed up to almost quadboob. It's almost like the in-cup quadboob people get in Cleo Marcie and the sister cuts. ... If I was less full on top, the shape would be rounder. I've found the BM models with the single layer of shiny stretch fabric are better suited to my full on top (possibly tall rooted as well) shape.

The color and lace are gorgeous, an elegant forest green in subtle floral patterns. The fabrics don't itch or scratch, but my skin isn't very sensitive. The straps have shiny green ribbon sewn with a zigzag stitch for little ruffle details. The bows on the gore and straps are vivid magenta for contrast. I wanted a green bra like this for so long!

A good fit, not quite as centered as my favorite CHP. But good lift and support and very comfortable.
Reasonably true to size; I could use just a smidge more room in the cup on my larger side.
Has the interior pockets for cookies to correct asymmetry or add vavoom.

This is both the best bra I have ever tried and the worst. I struggle to fit my soft close set boobs, a high gore pushes on my boobs but a low gore leaves me falling out. This bra feels more comfortable in the gore than any bra I have ever tried. The amount of projection in the inner quadrant is amazing. It honestly feels like my bras are perfectly held up by soft hands, not pushed out of any unnatural position. The shape it gives is perfection, two globes sitting high and proud. So the perfect bra? What could be ... wrong? Well... I am just not firm enough. Every time I lean over I quad out. When I stand back up everything goes back to place on its own. If I was wearing this bra while standing straight up all day it could work, but chasing after my 3 kidlets doesn't work with this bra. Also the straps are a tad bit short, although I'm 5'10, so wouldn't be a problem for mosthttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />. I think if I was the same shape (fob to even, and major inner quadrant fullness) but firmer this would be my dream bra.

I bought this bra off another Bratabase user at a steal, since it had a minor factory defect (one strap sewn in reversed at the back). I'm handy with a needle and had no problems correcting this.

Unfortunately, the bra does not quite fit. It's the same size (75H) as the S Porcelanka I own, and yet it cuts in at the top, giving me quad boobs. The band is also significantly firmer than the Porcelanka. That's not a big deal, I could wear it with a bra extender until the band stretches about a centimeter. However, there's nothing to be done ... about the fit at the top.

At first, I thought the Margot ran a half cup small, but now that I'm trying it on again for this review, I think it's incompatible with my even-fullness breast shape. The Porcelanka is much more open at the top so I get nicely rounded cleavage. This bra is a little more modest, attempting to cover more of my breast tissue ... with disastrous results.

In other respects, the Margot runs true to size. The narrow wires encase the bottom curves of my breast, there's plenty of projection, the gore doesn't stab at me. Other reviewers have mentioned how it's a sheer bra that still manages to be discreet with cleverly placed embroidered flowers; this is completely true. One last point: the mesh material of the cups is sturdy, not stretchy or fragile. I had no issue with comfort but it's possible someone with very sensitive skin might be irritated by that mesh.

It's overall a lovely and well designed bra, just not the one for me.

Oh well, I'll find another home for it.

Based on my own experience, and what I've read of others', there is definitely something a bit off with the fit of this bra. The band is very tight, and I can't wear it for longer than a few minutes without an extender. Also, the cups are a bit off, as there is some gaping on my smaller side that is not present with the other 34H S model I have. It feels like the wires are more narrow, which may have something to do with this, as the cup would have more depth and forward projection(?). Just a guess. By far the most annoying aspect of the ... fit of this has to do with the section of material which connects the hooks and eyes to the band. On mine, the ends of the material are extremely scratchy and irritate the hell out of me. I snipped the end a bit, so it's just the soft and plush material of the bra, rather than the scratchy bit rubbing against my skin. This is a complete anomaly, as I've never had this issue with an EM bra before. I'm curious to know if others had the same issue, or if it was just something off with mine. Additionally, I cut off the middle decal rose thing, because it was too odd and distracting for me.

All of this is a shame, because the color is friggin' gorgeous, and the padding of the bra is the softest I've ever felt. It's almost like memory foam, and feels incredible. I'm definitely curious to read other people's reviews on here to see if other people experience the same issues as I and others have.

This bra fits me like a glove. The band is a bit tight, and more close to the 32 bands I've owned in S model bras than the 34 band CHPs I have. The straps are in the perfect position, and don't rub my arm pit at all, unlike other S models I have owned in the past. The cups fit perfectly on both my larger and smaller side (bra magic!), and give great uplift. Aesthetically, the mauve is a bit more dull that I would have liked, but I do love the hint of the pinstripe color on the black fabric of the cup and how it extends to the entire band. I took off the little gore decal in the middle, because it reminded me too much of a grandmother's broach, and I much prefer the look of it without that.

I absolutely love this bra. The only downside was the jewel in the centre did fall off. I do get quad boob if I'm moving around lots - but found going up a size a bit too loose. This bra is super comfortable and very sexy. Definitely a great buy and can't wait to try more bra's from this line.
