I've not had much success with the Deco line and this one is following suit. I was hopeful that since this is their half-cup version that the reduced height of the cup wouldn't gape with normal activity. It is better than the others for sure, but it still gapes on my smaller side with anything other than perfect posture.
The cup is fairly heavily padded across the entire bottom of the cup...which I would think is good for someone FoB-challenged. The combination of the cups being tall around the Tail and the straps being wide-set, it spreads breast tissue out rather than pulling it in. ... (Then again, I do have a short torso, so that doesn't help matters.) I'm sure it would seriously irritate my Tail if I were to wear it any length of time. Maybe this wouldn't be an issue at all with tall, wide roots.
The band is true to size, the straps are fully adjustable and it has a nice smooth edge to the top of the cup. The gore is a little tall for my close-set breasts. Surprisingly, it's not uncomfortable, despite that it caused a little quadding above the gore.
In summary, the deal breaker for me is not the quadding above the gore, but the cutting in around the Tail.

Same as all Freya half cups, just a bit too wide and shallow for me. I think the push-up padding causes the Deco half cups to run at a half cup to a full cup small.

The fit of this bra is weird in a way I've never experienced. In general, it seems like it's a cup-size too big, but the way it's manifesting that is strange. There's the obvious part where the cups are too wide (typical for Freya and I), and gapping along the top edge of the cup... but it's concentrated specifically in the very middle of the bra, towards the gore. Normally when I get gapping with molded cups, it seems to be a general, evenly distributed way. This one fits very well towards the outer portion of the cup (nor are the straps too separate, gasp!) but seems very ... too-big in the central area. But aside from that, the gore tacks, everything is hunky-dory. I'd be VERY curious to try this bra in a cup size down to see how this changes things. Otherwise, the cups are a bit thick and stiff and have completely unnecessary built-in cookies. I'm a full-cup girl, I don't need bigger boobs. Just lift.

Appearance wise, it's a basic beige Deco. Something about the shape I'm not a huge fan of, because it makes me look wide? Specifically, the portion of the cups that meets the gore bows outward, whereas I prefer this part of the cup to lay basically flat. Once again, it could be an issue of a too-large cup, where because I'm not filling out the front of the cup (effectively pushing the whole conglomeration forward) it's bowing out at the sides instead.

That said, it's a good bra. Decos are pretty reliable, and if you like them you really can't go wrong. I'll re-list this one in hopes for a smaller size or different model.

This is a holy grail of brasserie. This bra is *perfect*, makes my boobies look at least a size bigger, does not cut into my breast tissue, makes a nice cleavage. I love it! Never gonna part with it!

Cups run small due to the push up padding. Band is a bit large, measures at 33 stretched. The material is very comfy (except for the straps, which are an uglier and less soft material but they aren't uncomfortable). I'm definitely getting a bit of quad boob in this, but as I was going for a cleavegy look, I'm not bothered by it. A cupsize up would probably fit my larger breast but gape on my smaller, and I'd rather compromise between them in a moulded bra. All in all, it's a nice bra. The straps are a bit wide for me but aren't bothersome as of yet, but we'll see after I wear it for a few hours.

A comfortable moulded bra with a serious push-up effect, which I found to be rather unnecessary and a detriment to an otherwise great bra.
