Anyone have experience with Freya swimwear?
Long story short: I'm starting a swimsuit hunt and my options are limited because I want a high neck with no cleavage showing. This is pretty much limiting me to one piece sports suits.
Does anyone have any experience with this Freya suit? I can't find any reviews on it anywhere. It says it is "moulded", but does that mean it actually has molded/pre-shaped cups inside? I'm also wondering about size. I wear 30G Ewas, and though I don't own any Freya bras I have tried them on in the past and I think I remember 30FF being the best fit. Would that sizing transfer over to the swimwear and be pretty much the same?
(For anyone else in the same predicament... I actually did find a suit at K-Mart that surprisingly contains the "girls" quite well. It maybe doesn't cover quite the amount on the side that it is intended to, but it's good enough for me and I'm quite modest. It's the black Everlast suit with the white zipper. My preference is to get a bra size suit if possible, but if that doesn't work out I am definitely going to pick up the Everlast one. It ends up being a compression style on me of course, but honestly the support and coverage it has is rather impressive.)

I also choose swimwear that goes almost up to my collarbone (not because I'm super modest, but because I'm vain and my super fair skin is very prone to showing sun damage in the cleavage area) and for this reason I often check out shopping blogs etc. geared to "modest dressing." I don't know your exact level of desired coverage but I'm afraid I have yet to find a full bust swimwear line that is truly high-coverage, at least on my individual petite-height, full-bust torso. I would advise you to select any well-fitting full-bust swim top or swimsuit and just use a rash guard or athletic swimsuit over or under it. Back in my swim team days many girls layered 2 athletic swimsuits anyway, both to increase their workout and to jazz up the often-boring appearance (strappy bright suit over basic black one, or a solid with cutouts over a patterned one) and it is perfectly comfortable for swimming.
@Freya Zodiac has a pretty high neck on a swimsuit. I wish the Electra came in my size, I love it!
