This is a comfortable bra that fits my shape very well. It is so far one of the prettiest and best fitting bras that I own. The quality is surprisingly good for how lightweight, sheer, and delicate this bra is. The straps are pretty stretchy but the band is nicely snug (for now) and the cups are deep. It gives great support but no extreme lift. It is also very breathable for those that live in a more warm climate. You should wear a cami (or silicone nipple covers) if you have more projected nipples and you are concerned about them showing through a shirt.

This bra was recommended to me for its projection and narrow wires. I definitely agree that this bra has way more immediate projection than most other UK bras that I've tried. It's very beautiful and the wires are great (finally something that will stay in my IMF!), but sadly I don't quite have enough fullness on top / inner fullness to pull it off.

Feels larger in the cups than I'm used to for Freya, maybe due to the fabric having no give. The fabric in general is my main problem with this bra, it's kind of scratchy and cheap feeling.

This bra was incredibly tight when I first received it, so I only wore it in the evenings for the first couple weeks (easy for me because my job requires a sports bar all day) and it stretched to a good fit. The gore pokes my sternum a bit and sometimes I think the straps are too wide, but absolutely love the bra despite those things (maybe that's just because it's my first bra that fits). Also, my husband loves it too https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Have to be careful what shirts I wear because the stitchwork and my nipples can be seen through real thin and tight material.

For me, this bra is the perfect hybrid of the Cleo Minnie (in 32F) and Panache Jasmine (in 32FF). Both of these bras fit me pretty well but the Minnie is a bit small in the cup, and the jasmine is a little big (the very high wires were the main issue). I searched on here and ABTF to figure out something that might be a "Goldilocks bra",and this is it! It has more of the dimensions of the minnie, with the shorter wire length, but with deeper cups that are almost what my jasmine measures.

I have even to somewhat FOT boobs. I have read that this ... fits similarly to the Arabella, only more open on top. For me the top of the cup lays just flat, so I am not sure how it would work for anyone who is truly FOT. Wire width is on the slightly narrow side for this size range. The band runs large, pretty much the same length as my cleo and panache bras in 32 when they were new. Typical freya.

Minor issues- Rubs a little in the armpit area. I usually get this with all bras and it tends to go away after a few wears and washes. I have the blush colorway, which is much more pink than I expected. Will still function as a "nude" bra for me, just not so much of a pink fan personally. It looked a bit more peach in the photographs. Also the bra has a little more full coverage look, the lace comes up a little higher than I would like. Not a total granny bra, but not a really "sexy" bra either...the fact that it is completely sheer does at least help it out a little. I have even folded the lace under and tucked it for under more open necklines.

TLDR: Try it f you really like the fit of the Cleo Minnie and are looking for a similar fit outside of the Marcie sister cut family. I would sister size down from your panache/cleo size. Good for even types with average/narrowish roots; YMMV if FOT or FOB.

I grabbed this because I needed a nude bra and the Arabella works pretty well for me.

It's a bit pinker than I was hoping, but turns out that works okay as a nude for me anyway.

I find the fit very similar to my Arabella, except where the Arabella wrinkles on the upper cup, this one doesn't. I think it's a touch more open on the upper cup edge than the Arabella is.

I have the same problem in this as I do in all bras: I just can't find a gore that's narrow enough. On first donning the bra everything sits well enough (the wires do sit ... on breast tissue at the gore, but it still tacks and the gore is low enough that it's not painful); then with wear my breasts and the gore start fighting, and the gore inevitably loses, which makes the top of the cup alternately cut in and wrinkle, depending on which way the wires get pushed.

The main problem I have with this bra is that, like all Freya cups, there's a combination of the straps being just wide enough and the cups being tall enough at the side to cause the strap/cup edge to chafe me. It's not completely unbearable, so I've not marked it as a fit failure in that regard, but it's far from optimal.

I ordered this bra in different sizes. This one was too big for me in the cups. I had some gaping at top and the bra kept wandering down. The shape looks kind of pointy here, but it's much nicer and rounder in the fitting 30F - Freya » Ooh La La Plunge Balcony Bra (1481).

I couldn't quite fill this cup on the bottom and sides.
