I got this bra because I had it in a 28FF and grew out of it after a few months. It was great while it lasted, although there was sometimes some wrinkling of the cups towards the bottom. The 28 band started out tight at first, but eventually loosened up enough to wear without an extender. Anyways, there was a huge difference in fit between the 28FF and 28G for me.

Like I had expected, I had to try this on with an extender. Without, I can still fasten the bra, but I'm popping out all over the place... What I didn't like was that the 28G is ... just so much MORE bra, and that doesn't work with my small frame. It comes up higher under the armpits and I didn't really feel like it needed 4 hooks, but whatever. The center gore is also a 1/2 in taller than the 28FF.

That above anything else is what makes me want to return this. For one, I have very close set breasts, which is why I prefer plunge bras. The higher center gore is basically sitting on top of breast tissue at this point. It also shows under lower cut tops which means that I can't even wear this bra anymore with a lot of the clothes that call for something strapless.... I might want to try again with a 30FF, but for now I think I'll just make due with the 28FF that I have. I don't have time right now to go through the return/exchange process.

The Freya bra in 28G did not fit me at ALL!. I had previously ordered the same bra in 28F, but the cups did not hold everything for me and the shape was odd for my breasts. The bottom would sag and fold on itself and could not handle me trying to fill it. I ordered a larger cup size, but the same problem persisted. Clearly the Freya is not for my breast shape.

Soon after finding out my correct size, I realized that there weren't many options in the strapless bra department. I took myself off to the local bra boutique and attempted to stuff myself in this one. I wanted to love it so much that I bought it, even though it looked a little iffy on shape.

When I got it home, I tried it on again. My husband said it best: "You look like you have no boobs." This bra flattened my chest and splayed my boobs in the most awful fashion. It looked terrible on my narrow and projected breasts. I'm sure it would lovely on a shallow shape, but my breasts felt smooshed. The cups are also higher than one might expect and peeked out from tank tops. No fun.

A positive: The band is very firm and doesn't stretch much above its 28" claim. It also doesn't seem to stretch out at all with wear, holding up the breasts with no trouble. So there's that, at least.

I had hoped this bra would fit like the Deco Plunge but it didn't.

Issues:
The silicone on the band rubbed on me and was quite painful.
The cups came too full coverage for my liking and no cleavage at all
the wires came too high under my arms

Though the thing on the side here says it doesn't fit me, I'd like to say that it does. At least it fits better than any other strapless I've ever tried. The band on this is SUPER tight (I'm usually a 30) but the 30 band was too loose (for a strapless), and with a strapless, I'd rather die the first few wears and get a long life out of it than start with one foot in the grave. It's definitely supportive. I find it to be a little shallow in the cup overall - it will sometimes crease in the sides and above the underwire after some settling. Despite being murderous on my ribcage right now, it's very comfortable. The 4-hook closure makes me feel very secure. It's also very smooth under clothing. I think this bra fits very differently than the Freya Deco (4234), as I cannot make that bra work for the life of me (and I've tried 6 different sizes!).
