It gives cleavage allright, but it doesn't fit!

Super cute bra, but wires were just not wide enough, and the cups were a bit too projected for my shallow boobs. The larger one could fill the cup with swooping and scooping, but the other one couldn't. After moving around the larger one escaped anyway, and left gaping.

I just love the Design of the bra. Whoever the cup material is a bit itchy but I got used to it, so I wear this bra quite often. The wires are quite narrow as it is typical for the Freya balconies so you have to be careful with that.

Love this bra, it gives a lovely shape and lift to the bust.

When I fully scoop, it get a little bit of spillage. However, it all settles back quickly. The band is a bit looser than my other Freya bras, but it still stays in place because of its width. The lace trim on the band can fold under when I sit, but it is not uncomfortable.

I tried this model in three sizes, 28E (way too small), 28F (ehh.. ok-ish) , and 28FF (hilariously tall and big cups). The gore did not tack in any of the sizes causing a bunch of fitting issues. If it had tacked, the 28FF would have been the correct cup size, however the cups are way too high, thus the 28E was WAY too small. The 28F fit the best of the three sizes, but was a tad small in the cup and I had to squish my girls into it. I could get away with wearing this size but when I put on a tank top over it, I just looked too wide. Returning!

The cups are a little too small, one cup size up would have been perfect. It's still comfortable and the straps sit nicely on my shoulders. The bra is still very pretty and gives a very nice shape to my breasts. Quality-wise, I'd say Freya bras are always very good... This is no exception, the cups is sturdy but not stiff, band feels great and snug but not tight.

I noticed that if the bra is completely new, the lace decorations can be a little itchy, but it softens with wear.

I can't even tell you how happy I am to finally have this bra! I wanted it so badly when it first came out but didn't get it until I found someone on Facebook selling it.

It's a pretty perfect fit for me- maybe a smidge snug in the cups, but it doesn't quadboob unless I'm leaning forward. The amount of support I get from this bra is excellent, and it's really sturdy- I feel like it's going to maintain its shape really well.

I bought this bra after seeing a blogger's review of it. I was hoping it would fit but it was too wide and shallow. It did give a nice profile.

This bra is just the tiniest bit small on me in the cups, which is unfortunate because it's gorgeous and very comfortable. The side-sling construction also doesn't seem to suit me terribly well, because there's some wrinkling in the cups from the straps pulling my breasts outward (see picture.)

Other than those minor fit issues, though, it's a great bra. It's sturdy (could perhaps be more snug in the band, but it isn't as stretchy as some other Freya bras I've tried) and well built and very comfortable.

Pros:
Beautiful lace with a nice soft lining underneath so it's not itchy or stiff.
Comes in gorgeous colors.
Lovely perky shape that's mid-way between rounded and pointed.

Cons:
Prone to being visible under shirts; definitely not a T-shirt bra, though the lace is smoother than some bras.

This fits with a bit of gapping on the top, so it seems like I might be in between sizes on the Deco. The top edge of the bra still shows under tops, which kind of defeats the purpose of having a seamless bra, but it's still comfy and mostly smooth, so I don't mind. Underwires are still pretty narrow, but just a smidge wide for me.

This bra is just beautiful! I love the color and the bird print. The fabric is soft and the longline is comfortable but flips up a bit in the front if I bend over, etc. The cups run a bit small, i was getting quad boob is the beautiful thing. Gives good lift and shape, but I think I need a size up or need to lose some boob weight.

Favorite bra, I have 5 Freya Decos in this size in pretty colors. The nude is starting to look pretty boring

This bra is almost perfect. A couple of problems though.

First there is a little bit of wrinkling in the cups. The top lace lays flat but at the nipples I don't quite fill it out. Also it has quite a pointy shape to it. The wires are too wide for me as well. I measure 27 snug UB and the band rides up.

My boobs are very close set (less than a pinky finger between), Plunge bras are the only ones that will work and the gore on this is the absolute perfect height for me. Also I found the straps pretty comfortable and I was just going to fix the riding up band issue with a rixie clip.

It's very cute, if you can get over the pointy shape it gives you. I'll be returning this one, though.

I really love the design of the Freya Taylor and wish it would fit in some size! The tops a bit too closed off, making the cup more shallow than I need; I'm hoping it might fit in a 28G. Otherwise, the band's nice and comfy.

Love this bra. This is now my best fitting, favorite bra. The side support really does a lot for me. I will be posting pics soon.

The cups gape on top, even though I'm more of a 30E right now and I do have some upper fulness.
They either run big, or very open on top. I'm not a big fan of this, because the edge of the cup show through clothing.

The band was surprisingly tight for a 30 Freya band (maybe that's due to the dark color). It didn't stretch out as much as my Freya Patsy Padded Half Cup Bra (1223)'s did.

I'm pleased with this bra - it gives nice support and the band is a good tightness, but not strangling me when new like some of my 30s from Cleo and Panache.I have a very slight gap after wearing it for a while at the far outside edge of the top, but this happens to me in basically every bra since, for whatever reason, I have no real breast tissue there. The gore is also short enough to behave itself okay with my close breasts. I also would like to mention that the straps do need to be tightened so the clasp is just an inch below the tops of my shoulders - don't know why they are so long on this bra! They do adjust all the way through the front though, so they could go even shorter if someone needed. The wires are wider than I need but not uncomfortable so this is a keeper!

The band is a little large, and the cups come up high on the sides making it a bit uncomfortable for a petite woman to wear (I am 5'3"). The straps feel rough and it's difficult to find a comfortable length for them without feeling like I'm compromising support. Someone who's taller might be happier in this. What I like is that the design is very pretty and unique with a lot of small details.
