Alright I'll give a once over review since I haven't worn it yet, and then I'll update when I've had the chance to wear it for a full day (it only came today and obviously needs a bath).
First impressions: This bra is amazing. I am so impressed with it that I'm making it a public bra adventure just so people can see it (usually I'm not a fan of doing that; please check out the photos for reference). It's comfortable, it hides my ribcage flare (which is impressive in its own right), and it's gorgeous. I ordered this bra through A Sophisticated Pair, and we made my usual ... customizations-this is a 30HH/30L with reduced cup height, a raised gore, and the straps moved in a few inches. The fit is perfect. The material is stretchy-perhaps a little more than anticipated (I'd tried the Hibiscus longline first and it was too small in the cup and less stretchy), but it's very comfortable and soft. Just from bending over a few times in it, I can tell you that it's a bit foldy at the bottom, but it doesn't roll up like a Freya longline would (I had the Piper many cup sizes ago). I will update that once I've gotten true wear of it. Honestly if it's as awesome as it has been just on the first wear, I'll probably order another one as it can function under light clothing with no issue. Also to note: My boobs look totally awesome in it! Hehe
UPDATED REVIEW, 11/12: So I still totally love this bra. I wear it a lot as it tames my ribcage somewhat and it's very, very comfy. To note: It mostly stays in place on me, unless I bend over entirely or bend awkwardly. So far, far less annoying than Freya's longlines (which I stated above already, but now can confirm). Other things to note: I definitely need a higher gore, because even though my boobs feel more even in terms of their heaviness, they pop out the center several times per day. I don't care though, I put them back in their place when I can and then go about my business. I actually ordered a second one not long ago as well as an Emmaline longline so I'll have one in black. Still waiting on my hibiscus though, hope it arrives soon! (apparently something went wrong with it the first time they made me the new one, but I don't know what).

Gorgeous! I've got a Comexim longline of my own and I've noticed that the band is a little tapered (the bottom of the band is smaller than the top), which I think helps stop any rolling. The Freya longlines are the same band length at the top and bottom. Looking forward to your updated review!
