Didn't fit

Shape as far as I know: tall, shallow and firm on the top, very projected, narrow and soft on the bottom, 18" wide shoulders.
I was BITTERLY disappointed in this (non returnable) bra. I think outside of high heels it's the most painful thing I've ever worn. All the weight, or 99% of the weight, of my breasts was on the straps no matter what I did, and after being out of the house for an hour I could no longer stand up straight. I could feel every individual joint in my back being pulled diagonally forward.
Really could not imagine wearing it again. It ruined my day.
The cups are so shallow I had wrinkling all across the bottom, and yet I had quadboob that invoked $10 34D pushup bra times. The straps were outrageously wide on my "linebacker" shoulders, and the band was uselessly weak. No bra would have been more comfortable. Somehow I had more underarm fat in this than I had 15 pounds ago. Did I mention I can't return this bra?
Day was saved when someone brought up Sharon Lois and Bram in a conversation and I had Skinnamarinkydinkydo running through my head the whole ride home. So if you've forgotten about Sharon Lois and Bram (90s kid here) maybe that will save a bad day for you too.
I'm hoping to sell or trade this to someone on here who likes Freya half cups - as I'm almost a 26 underbust (we rise at dawn) this "28" inch band won't remotely serve my needs. This review might give someone pause but I know there are women out there who like what Freya does. Think I will avoid this brand for now.

  • 90s reference made me smile. :)
    I have always loved the look of the Freya half cups, but have also always found them too shallow. And Freya bands are known for being larger than average, in general, which means I can't wear them any more either. I feel your pain. Sorry it's not returnable!
