I grabbed this because I needed a nude bra and the Arabella works pretty well for me.

It's a bit pinker than I was hoping, but turns out that works okay as a nude for me anyway.

I find the fit very similar to my Arabella, except where the Arabella wrinkles on the upper cup, this one doesn't. I think it's a touch more open on the upper cup edge than the Arabella is.

I have the same problem in this as I do in all bras: I just can't find a gore that's narrow enough. On first donning the bra everything sits well enough (the wires do sit on breast tissue at the gore, but it still tacks and the gore is low enough that it's not painful); then with wear my breasts and the gore start fighting, and the gore inevitably loses, which makes the top of the cup alternately cut in and wrinkle, depending on which way the wires get pushed.

The main problem I have with this bra is that, like all Freya cups, there's a combination of the straps being just wide enough and the cups being tall enough at the side to cause the strap/cup edge to chafe me. It's not completely unbearable, so I've not marked it as a fit failure in that regard, but it's far from optimal.
