I generally wear Freya halfcups in 32GG but the deco band is just a little too big, I'd have to start out wearing it on its tightest hook. The cups *just* fit. I'll try the deco in a 30H if they make it that size.
This is actually a bit too deep in the cup for me. I get a bit of gapping at the top unless my posture is completely straight. I love the shape so much, though, that I just wear it under slightly heavier shirts and suck it up.
I've heard the Patsy-style padded halfcups are slightly shallower, so I really want to try one of those and see if that solves the issue.
This bra does have some (non-removable) padding at the bottom of the cup. I like the look it gives, although I probably wouldn't wear this every day.
For some reason I get slight gapping at inside edges of the cups next to the gore, although nowhere else. Fortunately it doesn't show under clothes, so I live with it.
So Pretty! Everything fits.. Except I think I'm experiencing the "Freya Fold" where the black lacy top part meets the seam. I do fill out the cup, it just.. well, I guess it "folds". Not enough to matter though https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
This bra is very tight. It stretches for just about 10 cm, and because it's a longline, it feels even tighter. If you're planning to buy it, I recommend going up one band size or maybe even two. The cups are standard sized, too big for me, so I'm not keeping this bra. I think in this particular model size 34A would fit me best, if only Freya produced it.
This is the first bra I got that is around what my size is calculated to be.Thankfully it wasn't a complete failure but I don't think it's a perfect fit either.The band and center gore seem to be spot on but I'm a little uncertain about the cups.First off, I get a slight gap on top where the cup doesn't sit flat against the top part of my breast. Second, the cup seems too tight and I think my nipples are being pushed in too far, and third, the plunge style of the cups does nothing for me(which might be due to my breast shape I would imagine) Other than the few cup problems I have the bra is still wearable and looks great underneath clothing which is the reason I'm keeping it.
B. Plunges aren't the right size for me, but this bra feels incredibly comfortable regardless. Had to shift the wires to the outside to make the gore comfortable, but total comfort after that.
I like this, it's the most comfortable bra I own to date! The gore and wires feel comfortable, which is usually a problem for me, being very thin. The wires probably don't go as wide and high as they could on the outer cup, but that doesn't affect the support very much for my little boobs. Strap is feeling good so far, although it may become too loose over time.
I've been dying to try one of these out. Now that I finally have, I'm not sure what I think of it. Quadboobing a touch on my left side, but the wires are a good height right now, and I don't know that I want to go up a cup, as my smaller size will be totally engulfed if I do. Looks-wise, what stops it from being just another not-quite-nude bra is the straps. I cannot for the life of me get behind these straps. Including the little loopy bits on the sides of the strap, the width comes out to be ~.9 inches. My breasts are ...not heavy enough to warrant such heavy duty suspension. For all their being larger I don't feel like they're much more comfortable either, though that may have to do with what I'm used to and the fact that my boobs aren't that big. And like countless other people have mentioned, they make wearing tank tops and such rather difficult.
The 28 band feels looser than my Cleo bras in 30 bands did to start, but for now it's quite comfortable. It doesn't work for me as a nude bra (it's far too pale) and I'm not in love with it, so this one's going back. Doesn't mean I won't buy one of the fashion colors, though! The Jade color they're coming out with in the Honey Deco in November is right up my alley.
i love this bra feel when i first put it on. but then i look in the mirror. i have to put it on the tightest hook even though i got a 36 band. i would need a 34 for sure. i have pointy boobs , but that becomes a little less noticeable under a shirt. i want to love and keep this bra for the simple fact that it doesn't poke me under the arms! that is unheard of!!! it is very pretty and makes me feel that way unless i actually look at the shape it is giving me.
if you were to get this, get it a band or maybe even 2 smaller and about your normal cup size.
well i bought this bra because it was only nine pounds although i didnt really like the look of it. it is, i would say, probably one cup size too big although i normally wear a 30H in freya or a 30HH/ 32H in cleo. it makes my boobs look like ive got "overspill inside my bra" if that makes sense, probably because my boobs are too soft? im still keeping it to wear it at home though.
Update: 04.02.2013 i dont think ill be keeping it any longer, i wore it at home for about an hour and it made my boobs look ridiculous.
11.04.2013 my boobs have grown, im not a 30H in freya anymore but more like a 30HH, maybe even a 30J (im figuring this out atm) and well, this bra now fits and my boobs look quite nice and round when i tighten the straps a lot and its really comfy. i am actually starting to like this bra.
This bra is great! I love it. When I first got it there was a little extra room in the top of the cups, and some initial discomfort at the gore because of the button knots, but both of these have decreased significantly with wash and wear. It is supportive and gives my boobs and excellent shape, and is comfortable all day. It is also super cute!
Bought this bra pretty cheap at Nordstrom Rack. I normally wear a 32G but it was ALMOST filled out and sooo cute lol. The cups aren't the issue though - I fill them out a little better now (both thanks to migration and time-of-the-month swelling) but the gore.. even though it's close together I think it must be too high or something because I can't get it to lay flat, it's almost like the wires should lay on top of each other :/ I can and do wear it and it is comfortable, but the gore gets annoying by the end of the day.
This was my first purchase back when I was still figuring out my correct size (I measure 33 underbust, and now wear both 32G/34FF depending on the bra). It is about one cup size too small.. I hear a lot of people say the Deco runs big in the cup, but it seems pretty true to size to me.
It does not look that bad, because of the plunge, and I'm keeping it to wear under clothes that need amazing cleavage. If I had to exchange it, I would go for the 32G because halfway through my 10 hour work-day I have to go from the loosest hook to the middle hook on the band (and readjust the cups once or twice in the bathrooms).. anybody want to swap?
This is literally the only style of bra I will use. I hate seams on bra cups, and full-coverage just doesn't work with the cloths I wear, but I'm also really sensitive to anything that pokes, scratches, or constricts oddly. This bra is incredibly comfortable and creates a smooth, beautiful line under even thin, stretch cloths. It's supportive without being a granny bra. I can wear it for dance as well as every day wear, and best of all, they keep releasing new colors, so I can get fun new ones every year. When it's brand new, I have to be careful not to over-tighten the straps, or I get a little bit of overflow at the top, but other than that, this is just a really well designed bra. I find that it takes quite a while for them to get stretched out, too, so as long as you rotate regularly between several of these, they should last a good long time.
Another very pretty one that seems pretty comfortable, but considering it doesn't fit me that well, I'm probably not the best judge. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
This bra is awesome! It gives you cleavage but still gives you a round shape under higher necklines! It's also comfortable and doesn't show under shirts. I usually wear between a 28HH-30J. This bra runs big in the band and cup. I get some quadboob from it, but can't stop wearing it because it make my boobs looks awesome! I wish this was made in a 30H or 30HH . I also wish it had 3 hooks because my back gets sore from wearing it.
