Very pretty bra, Lovely grey, purples and oranges. Fabric feels soft and silky. Band not too stretchy. I have slight wrinkling in bottom of cup so may be a good fit for more FOB women.

I'm not used to this type of bra so it takes some getting used to because I feel the space between my breasts, but since this is my first 28DD I think it actually fits just fine.

The gores a tiny bit big for me but otherwise it fits really well. It's my consistent Freya sizing of 30E (I wear the same in the Deco and Taylor). Over all it's pretty great!

I had hoped this bra would fit like the Deco Plunge but it didn't.
Issues:
The silicone on the band rubbed on me and was quite painful.
The cups came too full coverage for my liking and no cleavage at all
the wires came too high under my arms

I've really wanted a longline for awhile, now. I tried on one last fall but didn't end up getting it. I'd also thought about getting the Patsy, so when it came out as a longline this summer I figured I might as well.
Even though I knew it would only have two columns of hooks, I was still disappointed as it felt loose for a 30 band.
The center gore is slightly too wide for me, and the wires are definitely too wide, but not so much that it bothers me.
I found that the band was flipping up, so I put in some boning underneath the cups.

First thoughts:
Oh FSM, the band is huge! I would do well with a 28GG had it existed. I can hook it on the last set with extreme ease. Any looser and my breasts slip into the band. So sad. But all in all I am in love with this bra. I wore it all day and there were no glaringly obvious issues, but time will tell.
I love longlines so much, and I am so happy I finally have one. One problem is that the front rolls upwards after moving a bit. In the future I think I might attempt to sew in some pieces of plastic or ... silicone strips or something to help keep it down. It is not a huge problem at all, but I would prefer the bra to stay as a longline while wearing. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" />
The bra itself is quite pretty. I love the colors together; black, white, coral, and navy blue. There is a double bow on the gore, and a single bow at the base of the straps/cup. Straps are heavy-duty sturdy, my goodness. They feel like a quilt and are wider than the straps from other brands. It's really nice; I don't think they'll be slipping any time soon.

This bra is very pretty! It has very thick straps, and very wide band. Unfortunately it's no where near my size, so I can't really say anything about the fit and how it should fit people around this size range.

The bra is well made and supportive it is just too wide for me.
The gore is nice and narrow and the band is firm.

This bra is just about perfect. It fits, it's comfy, the band doesn't roll up. I've heard other people having difficulties with this bra's fit and the shape it gives them. I believe Freya altered the design recently to give it higher wings and to address the shape in the cup. I'm assuming I have the newer style because I have no issues with the wing height and the shape is nice and a natural sort of shape.

I was really disappointed with this bra, I had some fairly high hopes for it.
Everything about it seemed far too big, like I was trying on a 32D not a 28D. The band rode up like crazy. A few minutes into wearing it, the wires were up onto of breast tissue, and the back was several inches above where it should sit.
I found the cups to be way to big too, which I found odd considering I can fit nicely into the Cleo Juna (6461) in a DD, and most other bras in the 28D-30C range. Even on my bigger boob, it was at least a cupsize, if not two, too big. The wires were far too wide, the gore too. It was such a pretty bra though, and seemed to have a nice shape; I feel like if it had been all-round smaller, it would have wonderful.

Quite pointy shape and slight orange-in-a-glass kind of effect for me. Very comfortable and pretty bra, though.
Edit: Actually, upon further reflection and experimenting, this bra is just too small in the cup, hence the shape problems... https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

I have a 30E - Freya ยป Patsy Padded Half Cup Bra (1223) that's a bit too loose in the band and a bit too tight in the cups. I think this 28FF fits better, but the band might be a bit tight.
I like the material, seems thick, though definitely not soft. The metal on the straps seems solid and I like that the straps themselves are wide.
Good support and it separates my boobs. Though I don't think I like the shape it gives me too much, it holds me in. I don't really like the sheer material at the top of the bra either.
Overall, it's a good solid bra.

I wanted to love this bra, but I ended up returning it. The chafing along the underarm edge of the cup was too much. I don't think molded cup Freyas are for me. The straps are too wide set on all Freyas anyway and dig into my pecs.

The band is very snug on this bra. It would fit a 28HH. The cups were also quite tall, which isn't great for low necklines.

Sadly, this size did not fit me and I had to order it in 30G. I ordered the GG because several other 30G bras did not fit me. I guess I should have heeded the warnings that the Deco runs big in the cups. I did compare measurements of the cups, and I was certain it would fit. I will report back when I receive the right size!

This bra is the perfect depth for my full on bottom, lots of projection boobs. I also have really soft breast tissue, but this bra seems to keep it in place. The wires are quite wide, I probably have about an inch of extra fabric that my breast tissue doesn't even reach. I don't see this as a big deal (as of right now) they aren't uncomfortable and they don't dig in unless you wear them for 6+ hours. Now, I ordered a 32 band, but it stretches to nearly 37in, this is pretty good for me because I'm making the transition from 32 to 34 so it's ... really comfy. But, I suggest going down a bandsize, the stretch can be a bit much.
Sadly, I can't completely fill out the top of the cup. The lace wrinkles a bit, but the top seem cuts into breast tissue (how does that work?!). I will most likely be altering the lace applique when I find the time. This gives great support and lift, the cups aren't very round, but they have a lovely natural shape. I'll be keeping this bra.

I really like how this bra fits, it is much more comfortable than my previous bras which were too high in the gore. It was comfortable from the first time I wore it, it didn't need to be broken in at all.
The band is very comfortable, maybe a little on the large side (I guess this is typical for Freya). I'm wearing it on the loosest hook and it doesn't ride up so it's fine, but I can pull it away from my back quite a bit.
This bra goes with my natural shape, so it's not as "front and center" as my Panache Jasmine was. It's a great every day bra.

This was the first bra I bought after finding out I was wearing the *very* wrong size, so while it isn't perfect, it's much better than what I had been wearing. The gore tacks quite comfortably to my rib cage, the cups lie flat against my chest, and the straps are fully adjustable! The straps are a bit too wide-set for my narrow shoulders, and sometimes the top of the cup/straps pinch my armpits (I don't know whether this is an issue with the bra or if I'm wearing the wrong size). Also, the gore is just a tad too wide for my breast shape.
Overall, I'd give this bra an 8.5/10. It gives me a nice round shape and I think it looks very pretty.

It is a cup size too large since the cup runs large, but it fit great besides that! My boobs are pretty far apart so it doesn't give me cleavage, but it pushes me up a lot. I have an even shape, maybe a tiny bit more full on bottom and it fits very nicely. The nude color also is a close match to my skin so it doesn't show through white shirts. I only wish the top of the molding was thinner than the rest of the cup so it didn't show through very thin and tight shirts. I can't complain much, though. I can't wait to try the 28DD to see it's true fit, though.

This bra is so cute but I think the cut is designed for someone with more projection than me. As far as I understand, Freya bras run a little large in the band, so I'm going to size down to a 28DD just to test it out. Appearance-wise I adore everything about this bra. There's a lovely little delicate lace detail that outlines the band along the bottom and sides. The lace on the cups is beautiful and has a nice wave to it, and the polka dot fabric is great. I'll keep my fingers crossed that the 28DD works out!
