Didn't fit
Despite the fit issue, I love this bra. It's not the absolute most comfortable bra out there, but I can wear it all day without being uncomfortable or things being too itchy. My particular fit issue came from my own ignorance - if I get a 30 band in Freya I need E or F (depending on style) rather than the DD of this bra. When I first ordered it, I was an E, and thanks to the "demi" style of this bra, I could still wear it. I would end up with massive cleavage and a boob-shelf, but no quadraboob. I've grown a bit, though, and now have quadraboob. If this bra hadn't been discontinued, I'd order a larger cup size.
I did have an underwire pop out of its containment on this bra, but based on my experience with other Freya bras, I suspect this was either due to fit, or an odd exception. Most Freya bras are durable. I'm mentioning this for the full record, but I don't think it's important to consider.
This is a fantastic looking bra. I really love the widening of the strap as it approaches the cup.
