Daisy was one of the first batches of Freya bras I ordered, when I didn't know how the brand fit and what my ideal size would be. 30C was the cheapest price on Amazon and is one of the sizes that sometimes fits me, but once I tried this on, I knew it was a poor choice.

In my experience so far, I am a true 28 band in Freya unlined bras (aka everything except the Deco), and some of the bands run slightly large. Thus it's no surprise that the 30 band is definitely too big and rides up quite a bit on me.

I was also ... surprised by the scratchiness of the lace fabric on the cups. I have now amassed quite a large collection of Fancies in various colors, and that style is also pretty stiff, but it's not noticeable when worn. The Daisy lace felt noticeably scratchy and somewhat uncomfortable when I tried it on. However, my least favorite part of this bra is the styling of the cups. The stock photo makes this look like a pretty standard Freya 3 piece cut & sew, but in this size, the proportions are totally different and it reminded me of a little girl's training bra. The stretch geo lace used in the cups also tends to create a pointy appearance (hard to describe, but not like a bullet bra, just weirdly angular), though the cups here were a little big on me and this might be minimized if the cup ran small instead. There's also a strange little triangular charm in the center front.

Unfortunately, this has turned out to be my least favorite Freya bra I've tried. I'm not sure who this style would best suit, but I think it would be better in a slightly larger cup size on fuller, more rounded, firm breasts.
