Even though the cups are too small for me, it is great for support. Straps are thick, band is comfortable and material is breathable. Band is perfect fit.

I thought I was buying the 32F cup, but the website where I bougth this bra made the conversion to EU size badly ...
So as expected for too small cups, my boobs want to escape and make a quad boob. Also, it doesn't fit my quite shallow shape.

This is one of my favorite bras. Even though it is too small, I keep wearing it. I love the shape and is very comfortable. Great t-shirt bra

I purchased this bra on sale. It is not my most favorite but I don not hate it. I could probably go one cup size up, so the cups do not indent so much on top. The gore is close to laying flat.

The bra itself is nice, nevertheless the cups are too wide for the cup depth which means the gore doesn't stick. Too bad

I got this pre-owned, but it's in good condition, which speaks well of its durability. It's a middle of the road bra for me. Not the best fit, but not the worst! The cups are too wide and gap a little on the top outside because I'm so center-full, and the gore is too wide, but there's enough depth at all points (apex/wire/top) which is my main concern. The construction is two layers of mesh which are semitransparent. It's cute looking, but only moderately comfortable (a finer, softer mesh would be ideal, but this is workable).

I was surprised to discover that this bralette was far too loose on me (both the back and the cups) in size S which is the size recommended on their chart for the 28F/30E that I wear. Usually I wear a size M in bralettes in order to get enough room in the cup. The sizing is definitely strange.

Perfect for my shape! Thrilled to finally find a Freya style that is just right for me. My breasts are fuller on top and sit closer together, but also sag a little due to weight. Lined or padded bras give me the shelf effect, and most unlined bras I've tried don't give me any lift at all, so I have been stuck with minimizers that don't complement my body shape and really only serve to hold me in place. Freya Rio does just what I want - just enough lift without being distractingly pushed up, and it's that rare thing, a perfect fit (no quad boob whatsoever!). Huge thanks to charlielheureux!

This bra has a very pretty pattern although the straps are a bit too patterned to wear under strappy tops. The cups and band fit great but for a plunge, this gives me absolutely no cleavage which is a shame. The gore is also too high and stiff meaning that it is painful to wear this for too long.

I would have sworn this was a 30F. (In fact, in one of my other reviews I think I said it was, and then I checked the tag...) I have 4234 in a 30D that has the same fit issue, aside from the fact that this one is decidedly too big and the D is certainly too large: my breasts slide in towards the center, leaving me with gaping on the outer sides and quad boob potential in the center. The top of the cup crease outwards, making the bra visible under shirts. Surprisingly do not have this issue in my 30E deco honey...for which the gaping is also less noticeable.
I *want* to love this bra, but I just can't. Comfortable, and good fit in straps and band, but the shape is entirely off for me.

This bra is comfortable and well-made but even when it fit I was 'meh' about it. It makes me kind of pointy, it peeks out of clothes easily because there's so much fabric/straps, and it's a little on the scratchy side. But very sturdy and supportive, I'd say. If you're a true 30 the 28 won't work for you, but if you're in between 28 and 30 you can try the 28. In my fuller days I could fill out the cups fine, even some quadding, but as I lost a little weight the top of the cup (near the armpit) was hard to fill and I got some wrinkling. Won't be looking for this bra in my new size.

This is a good bra. The band is a bit loose for a 28 and the cups fit more like E than DD; I've heard that this is typical of Freya. I like the tartan pattern and the little buttons.

The stretchy band and straps on this bra make it feel very unsupportive on me. It seems hardly worn, but still a large band. In one way, I put it on and it feels like I'm wearing nothing - I guess because the band isn't digging in. Comfy at first, but unsupportive. Freya wires seem to bother me a lot, so the comfort doesn't last anyway.

I guess the cups are too shallow on me - I get the best fit by overtightening the straps. This lets the wire stay in my IMF, but is uncomfortable to wear for long.

Love this bra! It fits me very well, more than other Deco bras I have. The gore lies flat against me, which it does not always for Freya with me. Gives a great shape, lift, and some cleavage. I am not a huge fan of polka dots but that's just a personal preference. One of my favorite bras yet.

I know Freya Deco is a classic and I wanted to add one to my collection - I have tried and tried, but the plunge just isn't for me. My breasts are set slightly close together, and quite full on top, so anything plunge gives me way more cleavage than I want. Even in the correct size I spill forward and almost out. The quality is great, and I could see this being a perfect go-to if you are shallow on top or want cleavage and/or extra lift.

This bra is similar to me to other freya decos It's made of a pretty thick, rigid foam, which is not very flexible for different shapes, but does create a very smooth look underclothing. This light pink would have been a great nude for me, if it weren't for the grey lace, though that is very pretty, I ended up not wearing it much because of that. I love the straps on decos, they're made of a stronger more reinforced material than other bras so they don't stretch out over time and feel very solidly supportive.

I tried both this bra and the Freya Patsy in the padded half cup styles in 32F. While the Freya Patsy was a much closer fit, this one gaped terribly in the cup on both sides. Band seemed a bit truer to size and was less stretchy, but unfortunately I couldn't wear it due to the gaping issues. In this one, I think I would need to size down in the cup in order to get a better fit. I love Freyas styles, but wish they were more consistent.

This is a darling polka dotted bra with a very retro vibe. I have it in the ballet pink and it's honestly one of the cutest bras I own. That having been said, there was a tiny bit of gaping in the right cup on my smaller side. Not enough to be a deal breaker as I am being very picky about fit (and have the same issue with a few other brands in my size), but I wish it was a little more perfect fit. Also, the band is looser than what I am used to in other styles/brands, so it may stretch out quickly. Not sure if I should've ordered a band size down, but I'm new to Freya so I wasn't sure.

Was a good fit when I was 28DD but now it's all wrong, I'm 28e now. Gore doesn't tack; the cups are too small so my boobs push the gore forward off of my body. I can fit a finger inside the gore.

This bra seems to fit well, I'm excited to try it for a full day and report back.

Update: switched to 28D due to side spillage!
