I've been searching for a longline bra for a while, but being a 28GG/H, my options are slim to none. I bought the Freya Ivy longline in 30G intending to wear it on the smallest hook, and then alter it as it stretched out. Unfortunately, like many Freya bras, the band on the Ivy runs QUITE loose, so even being a longline, it felt too loose right out of the box, so I will have to alter it right away. Dissapointing, but not terribly surprising.

The cups are a wonderful shape. I was concerned that the cups would be too wide, but they fit beautifully, and are comfortable all over. The pattern is a breath of fresh air, after all of the pink and purple and florals and lace of the lingerie world. After a few adjustments to the band, I suspect this will quickly become one of my favourite bras.

The quality of the bra is decent - well above what you would find at a department store or Victoria's Secret, but after a few Panache and Ewa Michalak bras, it's a tiny bit of a letdown. The longline band is not reinforced in any way, and feels a little bit flimsy, and the tensioning on the stitching is slightly off, so the seams ripple.
