Fits more like a 34 band (I think). I look kinda pointy in it. I'm pretty sure I prefer longer wires.

Gorgeous bra! The fabrics are very soft and beautiful. This gave me a strange shape. I am center-full, and this exaggerated it, pushing my breasts into a straight line from outer edge of underwire to my nipple.. However, I do need to go up a band, and possibly cup, size for a comfortable fit.

I love this print. Fresh! The measurements will make for a good bra to alter, much like my other freya bras, to fit my 28C bosom. Narrow cup width is the answer for me. Can't wait to put it into rotation. The straps are a bit wider than usual and carry the pattern forward. Straps are only partially adjustable but are fine for me. I like that the pattern extends into the posterior band. The material seems a bit softer than some of the other Freya models that I have.
I did a different type of alteration with this bra than other ... Freya models in the same style. I still used an padded bra cup as an insert, but instead of darts and narrowing the lace portion, I shortened the entire height of the cup at the wire. Smoother fit and still looks great. One of padded cups flared out at the top, but I tacked it down using a stitch technique off of youtube. It looks great and is in better proportion to my size and my breast volume.

This is a fine bra, I just prefer *more* support from my bras since I have very soft, ample tissue. It is rare I can wear Freya, so in desperation for a bra Nordstrom could convert to a nursing bra for me I couldn't have done better. It is pretty. I prefer more lift/structure, and I have more tissue than this bra can really handle but the fit isn't awful aside from too big band/gore not tacking.

Wide, but not uncomfortable as I generally find with Freya/Panache. I haven't tried bending them. Mostly there is only so much the fabric can do in the band so the straps need to do more lift than ideal. The print does make me quite happy! I wish I had gotten matching bottoms.
Thank you,
I was just asking because the wires on most Freyas are either too wide by design or they are too flexible and distort while wearing the bra.
I don't think it's a problem if the straps do a bit of the lifting as long as they don't feel too tight or make the band ride up.
From my experience with other Freya's these are the latter.
Eh, to get enough lift they have to be uncomfortably tight.

I like the print!
Do the wires feel wide on you or are they very flexible?
