Used to fit

I was thrilled when I saw that my local bra shop had received this season's items already! It's such a cute bra with vibrant colours and a really nice lace detail!

Now, Freya balconies are generally incompatible with my shape, because I'm both FoT and tall, with narrow roots, but this one is pretty good for even to FoT breasts thanks to the elasticized lace top! I'm even wondering whether it would actually fit people with FoB breasts or shorter roots. It has good projection near the wire and sturdy straps made with 2 different materials. It seems that Freya has finally abandoned their old strap material for something more durable that wouldn't get pilling like crazy, like my old bras from them have. The only downside for me is the wire width, which is about 1-1.5cm too wide for me, but the rest fits like a charm. It fits true to size at 30F.

Edit: After a while wearing it and getting better bras, I get to the conclusion that this bra is not FoT-friendly despite having stretch lace on top. The bra retains the classic Freya Plunge Balcony shape and is more FoB-friendly, though it can and does work for more even and FoT people, and roots on the taller side. It cuts into my inner fullness, so it's not very good for centre-full breasts, and the wires are much, much too wide for me, a good inch too wide. Considering the cup depth and wire width, I feel safe assessing that this bra fits more like a 30FF than a 30F. The band also stretched out rather fast and I started fastening it on the middle hooks after only 3 months of wear, and I am expecting to move on to the tightest hooks sometime soon.

After my breasts have become wider, it's now pretty much a perfect fit
