Freya bras in large cups are actually good!
Since when are they actually good in large sizes?! I was one who trashed them here and said they are not good in large sizes.
I have to take back my words, at least for newer collections. (the bras I ordered are from 2019 collections)
So back in the day around 2012 when I started to wear a bra that fits, I tried Freya bras and found them weak in wires and not supportive. Reviews that were around at that time were all negative about any above a J cup: flimsy wires, weak bands, east west droopy shape...
This kept me from trying any Freya bras for years. Also if the topic came up I warned everyone here not to try them in large sizes.
Enter 2019 when my size changed and my go-to bras suddenly would not work anymore, I decided to try them again.
I got 30K - Freya ยป Starlight Side Support Bra (5201) which was made of an itchy fabric and much too big in the cups. Of course it wasn't supportive so I wrote them off again. Enter 2021 and a positive review by twtelling made me want to try Freya bras again. I got some bargain ones and the first that has arrived is already really good. I will post updates and reviews.
I just wanted to get the word out that Freya really stepped up their game and their large cup bras are actually good now. I mean they feel like Panache Tango in support but the shape is 100 times better!

That's fantastic! I'm so glad you found some good deals and they're looking like they'll work out for you.
the freya viva in the lace version is on zalando now, I'm tempted to try it out
