It is just too small in the cup for me. (Need 1-2 cup sizes bigger, but it was cheap and I was still in denial that I could be a UK G). In the right size I think it may still lack Lowe projection that I need. But nice cleavage. Also I quad out just in the center toward the gore, perhaps I need more inner lower projection. (This bra like many assumes filer in middle/toward sides, but I am fuller in the center toward gores).
Gore nearly tacks, which is pretty good for me (close set, FOB to even). Since cups a bit small, my boobs push the band down below infra mammary fold. I quad out the center a bit. In some positions the top of the cup gapes, and in some positions it cuts in, I think that is just due to the molded cup.
Pro: Very nice rounded shape, cleavage, and fully adjustable straps.
I absolutely adore how this bra looks, but I need a larger size. It's great for shallow breasts, and gives me a wonderfully round shape. Unfortunately, since it's too small, the wires dig in horribly. The last time I wore it, it left blisters that took days to disappear https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> The straps rub like crazy as well https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
I really like this bra, and I find it to be very comfortable on most points. It's also very cute.
Personally I think I need a cup up. I have pillowing at the top and cleavage of the cup. Works nice in booby shirts though.
The band is firm, but not uncomfortable. I'm between 32 and 34. I'm comfortable in the 34 but I'm on the second hook. I think I might be able to swing the 32 but it could be a bit too tight for a little while.
The main area this bra is somewhat uncomfortable is the straps are more side-set than I like. They cut into my underarm somewhat and the straps can be finicky.
UGH. Why does freya think someone with a 20 inch rib cage has a "front of chest" that adds up to 15 inches or so wide???? the cups are totally disproportionate to the band length.
For me personally, the band is to long-- it is a stretchier than average Freya band-- the gore too high, and the cups too shallow.
I just got it and put it on and it's super soft. I love the shape it gives my boobs, but it is just a little bit on the small side in the cups, but just barely. Not small enough to create a quad boob effect. The material seems to be of high quality and I love how thick the straps are. I can't say much else about it now since I just got it and put it on.
Normally, plunge bras are not my friends. This bra might change my mind.
I wore this today. No, plunge bras are still not my friends. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> This bra is awfully pretty, but doesn't look right with my shape. It made me look pointy, which surprised me. I like the way everything fits...band is properly snug, wires sit in the correct places, gore is flat. But...yeah, no. Plunges aren't for me. I was self conscious about it all day.
Love this. Comfy, with great shape and lift. Wish I could get it in 28GG, since the band is roomy in this one, and I'm sure it will stretch in no time. Slight quadboob on the larger side, but not a deal-breaker. Over all, this is a great bra.
This bra is not mine but a friend's who let me measure it. I did try it on and the band fit well being I wear 38/40 band myself. But the cups at FF were way too big for my D cup boobs. This bra also has molded foam cups which I do not care for. This bra seemed well constructed and of good quality.
Pretty bra with green striped fabric and embroidery details, top of cup is sheer. It fits me as well as I have had a bra fit so far. The gore tacks, but it also folds of on itself to make itself stack. I think this is because I am close set. So technically, one wire of the gore tacks. The wires follow my shape fairly well. This bra sits loser to my inframammary fold than any I have found so far. That being said, it still sits a bit below my fold, maybe an inch or ...a bit less. Even if I try to situate it up there it never actually gets quite high enough. Not sure if I need more projection, or if I am too narrow so I force the gore down, or if it is just the weight of the bosom. In most bras I get a bit sore on the ribs where the wire angles up, and this is the case with the freyas, but this tends to get better as I get used to the bra. The red mark is definitely on a rib, not on beast tissue, so that is good, I think. The details don't show under a tshirt, which I was nervous about with an unlined cup. Arerolas totally show through the mesh on top, I kind of thought they would fall under the fabric, but they sit up in the sheer area. Maybe just cause FOB or maybe that is the design plan.
This bra is so pretty and cute. I love the ballet pink with the taupeish polka dots. Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. The cup runs small. My best fitting bra is the Panache Jasmine in a 34H. The center gore does not tack at all on this. There is about an inch of space. It's definitely a wide and shallow bra. The wires don't go too far back though. I just need more depth in the cup but H is as high as they go. I've been on the hunt for an H+ padded bra but everything I've tried just doesn't work. It's very frustrating. Why can't they take the cut of the Jasmine and make it padded. My last hope is the Parfait Charlotte in 34HH which should be arriving any day. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
I've had this bra in 28F, 28E and now 28DD. I initially got the 28F and while I didn't quite fill the cups, I convinced myself the fit was close enough and my slightly bigger boob would quad-boob if I sized down to 28E. Well, I've lost about 15lbs over the past 2 years and along the way my bigger boob didn't look so great in the 28F either. So I sold the 28F and ordered a 28E which fit nicely at the time. 8 lbs lost later, the 28E stopped looking good as well. Sold it and got a 28DD on the ...way. I love everything about this bra except that the band is still too big and too stretchy. I also wonder if the underwire cuts into my breast tissue just a bit. I've been wearing 28Es and 28Fs which seem to have a wider underwire. I probably still have migratory tissue that needs to head toward the front. I want sizing help, so I'll get over some of my fears and post pics of me in this bra. Best fitting bra so far, but I need help - I know it's possible to be better. Read more 101 more words
I love this bra so much. It is so cute. Great support. I probably should wear a 28 band, but the 30E works pretty well. Not the best T-shirt bra, but otherwise wonderful!
I am petite, so the lower center gore is perfect. I do not quite fill out a full cup bra, but this one looks fabulous!
I absolutely adore the looks of the Freya Piper Longline Bra in Passionfruit. It gives me a wonderfully rounded shape from the side, just like the Cleo Marcie. Just like the 30F Cleo Marcie, however, this bra gives me side tissue bulge. I can no longer find the Passionfruit color in 30FF. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
The cups of the Piper Longline are vertical seamed, so if you like cakes on a plate cleavage, I would try this. Freya's unpadded balconettes are too narrow and deep for me, but I've had great luck with their vertical seamed half cups.
