I now fully understand why GG+ ladies are not always the biggest fans of Freya's bras. The difference in construction between their D-G cup bras and the GG+ bras is striking. I've heard the larger sizes described as "industrial", and I think that's an accurate word to use.
The straps and band are wider; the cup comes up farther under the arms and on the chest; the cup fabric is thicker; and most annoyingly, the proportions of lace to fabric on the cups just seem off. Because the fabric of the cups is thicker, the seams on the cups are also more noticeable under some clothing. (I know not everyone is worried about this, but for those who are...)
The fabric of this bra is very pretty, and does cover the straps almost all the way down the back. Fortunately, the straps are still fully adjustable as the adjuster-thingy easily slides right over the fabric.
I usually need a 30 band (my ribcage measures 30" ), but had no trouble at all comfortably hooking the band on this bra.

This bra is not owned any more
