Just bought it yesterday! Liked wearing it my first day, but this will beg further editing later. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

Pros: The longline band distributes pressure very well, and the cups feel supported by the band. Provides a sense of security and doesn't cut into the body. The straps are substantial (about 3/5" wide) and can be adjusted their entire length. The half-cup design provides some pretty impressive lift to each cup separately. Takes weight of the cups effectively enough to feel a positive difference in posture. The lining is substantial but thinner than moulded-cup padding.

In short, it is a comfortable bra, and also an astounding date-night bra.

Cons: Center wires come in too high to be worn with plunge-style clothing. Band has comfortable stretch, but it could be sturdier. Vertical seams may show up under thinner shirts. Will spoil you to longline band styles forever.

This bra was purchased on 17.09.2008 and in my notes it was described as fitting on the loosest hook and being supportive. By 2009 I was spilling out of the top and stopped wearing it.

This review is being written in 2013. The bra looks fine, as it has been in storage rather than recently worn, but I think the elastic in the band may have degraded over time, because the stretch measurement seems very extreme at 95 cm.

I have a shallow and wide root, and this shape is nice and open on top. I was worried Freya wires would be too narrow, but they seem perfect. However, I don't have quite enough projection to fill the 28F out (though I almost can right before my period).

Although I filled out the size 28E cups fully, the wires were too short and the cups didn't provide enough coverage near the underarm, so I decided to keep the 28F instead.

I wear the same size in this as I do with Cleo. It's more open on the top than the Cleo Marcie, kind of like the Cleo Juna ... (28F), but with better side wire and cup fabric coverage.

Note that there are only 2 columns of 6 hooks each, not the 3 columns found on the other Freya longlines in 30+ bands. Also, the shoulder straps are wide "industrial-strength" elastic (like on the Freya Ivy longline).

I find it comfortable (and it's really really pretty overall!), but some may find the gore too high - if you find the Juna's gore too high, you won't like this.

I have a shallow/wide root. I ordered this knowing a 30 band would be too big, and indeed I can comfortably wear it on the tightest hooks, but I intend to alter it eventually to reduce the elasticity.

The cups fit the same as the 28F Just Flew In longline on me - I don't 100% fill them out (better right before my period), but the wires are the right width, and the top of the cups are nice and open, a good cut for shallow shapes.

The cups have 2 vertical seams that show slightly under a thin T-shirt, but I don't mind since overall it gives a nice rounded shape.

Note: the 30 band has 3 columns of hooks (whereas the 28 Just Flew In had only 2). It has really pretty fabric shoulder straps, whereas both the Ivy and Just Flew In longlines have ugly, wide "industrial-strength" elastic straps.

So this is a 28G, not my usual size of 28FF, or 28F that I'd get in a deco, I've finally accepted the fact that I need to buy a cupsize or two bigger. It took me a while to ...

I think this bra fits pretty well considering I'm still figuring out my size! It's comfortable for all day wear and I don't fall out of it!

Comfortable bra. Good under T-shirts and clingy materials.

I fell in love with this print and color combo and insisted on buying it in 30FF even though I'm a 28G in Freya. The band is too loose on me and the cups actually seem to run a size small as well. It breaks my heart to get rid of it, but I'm purging my bra collection of anything that doesn't fit perfectly so it's got to go.

This is the third Freya bra I bought after finding out the proper size. They didn't have this size in stock, and it just came in today.

I think this bra is the prettiest of the Deco-style bras I have. I love the light pink colour, and the purple lace and ribbon around the top compliments it well.

The fit is great. I can fasten it, and the other Decos, on the second hooks right away, so I don't think that I would want to go down a band size for any of them, but I know that I might have to alter them in the future. It feels very ... supportive in the front - there is no stretch between the cups or on the wings next to the cups.

The cups do a good job of pushing up and out. It is very comfortable, with very soft lining on the interior of the bra. Overall, great!

After wearing this bra a few times, I got used to the firmness of the band and realized that it really wasn't tight enough. My underbust measurement is 29", so I had the band altered to a 30. Will be going for 30 bands in the future.

When I was fitted, I was told I was a 32F. I bought 4 bras, a Marie Jo in a 32F, this one in a 32F, a pink Freya in 32F (Ashley, I think), and a nude one in 32F. When I tried them on the next day and moved around, I found that there was a lot of gapping at the top that would have shown under clothing. Luckily, I could exchange them (I have to wait for the pink one to come in in my size), but I've read some other people have had to size down for Freyas.

I really like this bra. It provides a ... lot of support, and looks great, lifting everything up and out. It is dark purple, much less blue than in the picture I took.

This bra is very comfortable, and does a really great job at pushing up and out. I like that I can adjust the straps a lot, I seem to always need to shorten them by quite a bit.

Very comfortable bra that looks smooth under clothes. The band is MUCH firmer than I'm used to, which is good since I like to feel like the band is fitted securely around my ribs.

So cute! It seems to fit well, except I may have a problem with migrated tissue that I'm not sure this bra will help.

This bra is definitely good for boobs that are very full on the bottom - mine quadboob a bit in it. Super pretty bra but alongside the quadboobing, the shape it gives is not quite right on my body! Band feels good. Underwires are a bit narrower than I am comfortable in, I have a wide root.

The bra is really pretty and colors are awesome - not too bright but still fun https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

Such a lovely first introduction to Freya that I discovered in Bloomingdale's a few years ago. It's been a while since I've worn it, but I remember the lift being great.

Just happy to find a lower cut bra that has no boob spillage or quadboob. Feels very comfortable, and seems to have lots of support, but I need to wear it more for a better review.

Updated on May 24, 2013 Flag this

Fits nicely, no spillage. Band is a bit itchy, and straps don't seem to want to stay at the length I want them. Very cute and comfortable, though. I am full on top, so quadboob is always a concern for me. First tried a 34FF, and there was a little quadboob. The 34G is near perfect. Lies flat and offers a lot of support. The cups seem quite open on top. Not a big fan of the straps migrating, but it's tolerable.

Not sure what to make of this one - with straps on, it's a snug almost quadbooby fit. Without them, the tops of the cups tilt open and it puts a lot of pressure on my back. In general I seem to need a 30H/HH, I would probably get the best fit for this bra in 30GG (especially since the size range ends there). By comparison, I don't find the Deco Plunge to run large (as others say), and I would argue that the strapless DOES run big in the cups... or at the very least, it's a taller cup. This bra is hard to put on for a front fastener, try hooking it in the back or having friend/mom/spouse do up the back. That being said, once on the shape under clothing is AWESOME.

This bra has a total of eight - EIGHT - strap attachment points, and two straps so there's a lot of versatality here. There's 4 hook/eye closures, so it's a little similar to a longline, which is pretty nice.

Fits well, band stays in place, center gore lies flat and cups fit well. I wish it didn't have such thick padding though, as I don't really want my boobs to look even larger.

I'm crazy about this bra even though it's not a perfect fit for me. I got it used off of eBay and it's crazy comfortable and the only bra I have that fits better is the other bra I bought around the same time (shortly after discovering ABraThatFits on reddit). I want more like this (but a cup size smaller for me).
