Didn't fit
PROS: Comfortable! Straps are fully adjustable. Underwires do not poke or prod. Very comfortable, lightweight bra--it doesn't feel heavy or matronly. The padding is very thing and light. It does not add bulk, but rather helps even out shape and protect you from over-exposure in colder climates.Very attractive bra, nice shape, does not flatten but enhances natural shape. Overall, the Freya Patsy is very cute and quite flattering!
However...
CONS: Masks uneven breasts nicely, however, did not cover my left breast entirely (spillage, cut into breast tissue, etc). Band runs VERY loose, as do straps. Realistically, I could have afforded to go down a band size and up 2 cup sizes to correct for this issue. The material is very scratchy (to sensitive skin) at first but subsides with wearing. The center gore did not lie flat on me but rather began to lift onto my left breast, most likely due to the cup being too small. I may try to alter the center gore...it may just be too wide for my breasts, I'm not sure.
CONCLUSION: If you're between sizes (like me!) size up a cup. Straps are fully adjustable and structure seems strong enough to withstand cupcakes for correcting uneven fit (if dramatic size difference between breasts).This bra is not owned any more
