Freya bras (unpadded) and some bikinis don´t usually fit my shape. I have wide + tall root and shallow boobs and Freya seems to have always too closed on top, and too deep cups for me, but I read that this bikini top is an exception. I tried my luck and got a nice surprise!
My usual Panache size is 28F. I read that the band in Pier runs tight and cups small so I ordered 30F. Band is nice and snug. I do get along very well with the cups, too! The seam across the cups looks like it tries to wrinkle a little in the center, but ...this is very minor. The shape viewed from the side is not completely rounded, but very much so. I would never have imagined to get this good a shape from an unpadded freya bikini! From the picture it seems I have some wrinkling at the bottom of the cups. I think it can be removed by shortening the halter neck a little but I´ll have to test it. It might be that if I tighten it too much, the cups will cut in at the top.
I also got bikini bottom EU / UK M, which I think fits true to size. I usually wear UK 12 / EU M. It is the brief with frills.
Overall: Very nice indeed!! The bikini feels very secure, I feel like I could even do sports in this!! Even though it is not the perfect fit for me, I really like it! Read more 148 more words
I love the white lace, and for once, it is not sheer as it is doubled!
I tend to take a size smaller for swimwear, as it looks nicer, and I would suggest the same for this model too.
The fit is good, comfortable bra for a bikini, but the shape tends to change after a few uses/washes. I believe it is due to the padding, so I would say that it is a perfect bikini for sunbathing, but not for the beach if, like me, you like to swim and run around all day.
Great bra, i have it in black&blue and it looks beautiful. It fits my "even" and average projected breast, but i think the shape is good for a FoB shape too, because the top of the cups are pretty close.
For my measurements, i think the 30FF must be a little better, but in France, the only big shop which sells Freya don't have the 30... So I take the 32F, which fits me too.
Très beau maillot de bain, je l'ai en bleu et noir, il est très chouette. Il convient à mes seins "even" moyennement projetés, mais je pense qu'il est très bien aussi pour des seins FoB car le haut du bonnet est assez fermé.
Au vu de mes mesures, le 30FF aurait été encore mieux pour moi, mais l'un des seuls grands magasins qui vend Freya en France (les galeries lafayette) ne font pas les bandes en 30... Du coup, je me suis rabattue sur le 32F, qui me va aussi.
When I bought this, I had to get one cup size higher than my usual size. Though, now I do wear a 32G and the swimsuit top still fits. It covers very well and I do not need to worry about falling out or anything. It is very comfortable and the band fits perfectly. It is lucky that the band fits perfectly, though, because it is not adjustable.
It's a lovely style and design. However, it gives me quad-boob and only hooks with the right ritual dance to the dark gods of bra-fitting, so it's going away. At 10.2", it's the shallowest bra/top I own.
Best swim peace I ever had. Comfortable, stays put all day on the beach, allows running, jumping, swimming... The size is true to Freya bras I own, I'm between 36ff and 36g but I like a bit more cleavage for the summer and it does not make a double boob effect. I wish Freya made this model in all designs. I've been wearing my firs one for 4 years now, a month on the beach and occasionally to the pool, the colours faded a bit but still fits great.
Usually wear 36ff in Sweetheart model but bought this one because it was cheap and plan to alter the band (the measurements are for the original bra). I think this is actually my true size in the cup but don't mind a bit more cleavage in 36ff. I love the look, looks great on porcelain skin or tan, I love to combine it with neon briefs.
I have a wide root and shallow boobs. I do need flat cups but not extraordinary wide wires. I almost don't have any volume on top.
The band runs true to size, in my opinion Freya Swim runs tighter than usual Freya styles. The cups are true to size but very, very shallow and wide wired. They usually are a little to flat for me but I really liked the design so I kept the bra. The bikini top doesn't do anything with my boobs as the cut isn't the best for me.
(This is about the pink-white bikini top) My usual Panache bra size is 28F, and I find this bikini top runs quite "true to size".
The band is okay, I think it´s tight enough. It looks like it goes a little up my back, but it feels secure.
The cups are almost perfect for me. They create a rounded shape which I prefer. There is however very minor overspill in the center of cups. The shape is not the best match for me, but very close to being perfect!! You don´t even see the overspill in the pictures. It is so minor and I think it almost disappears after I jiggle a little, so I concider these cups a very good fit for me. I have wide + tall root and shallow boobs.
Straps adjust all the way.
I got a turqouise-white and a pink-white also. They seem to fit about the same, no big differences there.

I also got matching brief UK10. I normally wear UK12 / EU M, but this bikini bottom fits well. It is supportive and snug without being too small and it covers my bum like it´s supposed to. Read more 81 more words
Last year, I got Freya Cabaret bikini top 28F + bottom. The top cut in horribly on top of cups, so I sold it. I just should believe that Freya bras / bikini tops are not my shape...
I was left with the bikini bottom and I liked the colour so much, I decided to try this halter top. I have another Freya haltet top in 30F which fits quite okay, so I sister sized to 32E due to availability.
The top is a bit problematic. It is not a very good fit, but I think I will accept it. The wires are again very wide in this cut, but ...it doesn´t bother me that much. The cups however have some gaping in the center, so I guess they´re too projected for me. There is however not so much gaping, only a little, so I think I can wear the top. I have to tighten the halter strap to maximum, it will help a little.
Bikini bottom is UK12 and a little tightish for my bum (I usually wear UK12 / EU M). It is very much wearable though. Read more 78 more words
This is a really cute bikini, but I got it before I knew what my true size was. Too bad, because it's adorable and I'd love to wear it, but whenever I wore it before, everyone got quite the show! Quad-boob everywhere.
This shape is all wrong. I keep having to constantly pull the wires up and readjust my boobs. It would be better for someone who is younger, full-on-top, and has a shorter torso. I feel that the length is okay on me, but not with how low the matching bottoms ride. I want a 2-piece, but I don't want to be showing my mid-riff either.
No underwires, and I don't fall out of the center. Win-win!
I should have gotten a smaller cup size now that I see how it fits. I would love an adjustable back as it feels quite stretchy and the band is not as supportive as a bra so it pulls on my neck a bit.
The shape makes it a very accommodating top (unevenness or fluctuations in size).
I hope Freya comes out with more colors so I can buy another one.
I am not show what size I will look for next as it onlt goes up to F... maybe 32E or just a 30F.
I am a shallow 28D, and I find high or even medium-height gores, uncomfortable, so I was on a quest to find a bikini top with a low gore but that was flattering for shallow breasts. And this bikini is great for that! I tried on a bunch of different plunge bikinis (to get a low gore), and this by far was the most flattering for my shallow breasts. My breasts fit in the cups well, and the cups show them off a bit - the cups don't just cover them with material as some other bikinis did. The cups comfortably fit my larger breast and do no look awkward on my smaller breast - a miracle! I tried on some other bikini tops with wider cups that again, were not as flattering - the separation on this one was great for me. And so far, the low gore is comfortable for me. Really pleased with this bikini.
I thought this was more of a dark orange swimtop but it is peachy orange and doesn't look good against my skin tone. i bought this swimtop knowing it might be too small but it was on clearance and a good price so I figured I'd give it a try. Cups are too small for me, I feel the band is a true 32,I am in between 32 and 34 band and it was a bit tight. This is a halter top.
This bra and the Freya Cherish fit the exact same. It is very pretty, and by doing some research I figured I should get a 32FF instead of my regular Freya 30G. The band is tighter in the swim suits, but I don't like to be suffocated! So I went to the sister size. It does fit like a 30G deco, in the band at least. I am worried though if it stretches out, I only have one clasp. I will just have to hope that doesn't happen! It's very soft and pretty. I think the colour is called sunsboule. It is yellow orange, and polka dotted, it has a really cute vibe that I love. I have the matching briefs too! I'm so excited to try this out!
I love the texture and style of this bikini, and it's the first halter bikini I've worn that doesn't absolutely cut into my neck. The cups are a little farther apart than I typically go for, but it does minimize the size of my breasts, which I like for beach purposes. Overall good support for a swimsuit, and creates a nice décolletage.
