I wanted this bra to work by dear god. It is so cute, and has nicely wide wires which properly encapsulate my tissue. However, it is way too closed on top with a very wide gore, and I have average to slightly tall roots. The bra slides down when I breathe in heavily, because my chest pushes at the top of the cup and shoves it down. The wires in the center also sit a bit too much on my chest for my liking, since I am fairly close set. The whole bra gives me profile a weird bump on top, due to how short the cups are.
...I tried a 30F, but that was a bit too big, the wires were just way too wide, the gore dug. While the closed top of the bra make the bigger size not as obvious as some, it was definitely getting into parachute-bra territory. A shame, I feel as if nothing by freya works for me or will ever work. Maybe the padded half cup is more open on top? I may try that. I was able to find a good fit with the Skarlett Blue Entice in 30E, so I know there are a few balconettes that can work for me. Read more 102 more words
As someone who is slightly FOT with narrower roots and very close set tissue, I adore this plunge bra. I was starting to spill a bit out of the 30DD in this lately, and noticed my chest seemed to be a bit more full (my size does tend to oscillate a lot). I remeasured on ABTF, and the calculator suggested 28F, with 30E being more comfortable. I prefer a 30 band as it is more comfortable for me on average. I took the plunge (HAHA) and ordered this on amazon thinking the 30E would be huge on me, but it is not at all! It fits amazing for ...a molded cup? The cups lie flat unless I slouch. It actually gaps less than the 30DD - I'm assuming because the cups have more room to fit my tissue in and are not bowing out from being too small. The wires are perfect for my roots. I always thought the 30DD had a weirdly tight band, but the band is the same on this and feels more comfortable, so I think the 30DD was just a touch too small. It's interesting to see how subtle a cup size difference is compared to what we're taught. I will be saving the older size in case my size goes down, but it does seem like 30E fits me better overall. It is also more flattering, as I am not getting unattractive side boob. Really great option if you have a lot of upper fullness and need a low gore and like padded/molded bras.

I really wanted a plain black bra, this was on sale for $30 on amazon, so I got it. It gives a very round shape, and very comfortable.
Is it perfect? No, because it is just a little too open at the top for my short roots, (the cups are tall), but it is comfortable and as someone who is slightly FOT, and thus functionally even, it fits really well. I am also very center full with narrower roots, so the plunge gore and shorter, narrow wires work quite well. This is my favorite t shirt bra and the only one that works so far.
I have nothing good to say about this bra. It's a 30E, but the cups fit like a DD at best, and the top part of the cup is too big but too small??? The band is HUGE. I had it on the 3rd set of hooks and it was too big.
Bra feels comfy but the straps pull my soft tissue too much on the sides giving me a weird shape. The difference in fabric thickness at the bottom vs the top gives me a quad boob effect. It would have fit better if the fabric was double lined all throughout. The fabric curled slightly at the very top. Not a good fit for me.
Not loving the fabric on this bra or most Freya bras for that matter. Shape of the cups are not a good fit for me. Cups are too high and I gap near the strap area. Gore is flat and feels fine. Wires too high on the side for me.
The material feels so cheap. Even if it fit well I don't think I would keep it. The cut of the cups don't flatter me very well because they curve in at the top. I kind of feel like I need a size up but at the same time it feels too big. I just don't care for this one. The gore is slightly raised off my chest too
This is the second Moulded Freya bra I have tried and I just don't like the stuff material they use. Band is uncomfortable, sides poke into armpit and just an overall bleh feeling.
This bra fits me the best out about 15 plus tried so far. Quality is OK. This one has a seam issues on the right cup so I would have to replace it. Also doesn't look good under basic tees since the lace is lumpy. If it weren't for the lumpy look under shirts I probably would have kept it.
Material feels on the cheaper side, has a stray thread on left breast cup, almost scratchy material but tolerable. Band is a little tight. Good amount of padding
This bra is so beautiful. I love everything about it but the fit. I bought the wrong size thinking that I only need to go up one cup without measuring myself. Cut off tags and well it’s just a bra I’m gonna make work cause that’s just me. I definitely am gonna get at least one more in the proper size.
The band is so much stretchier than those on my other bras that I had to size down. Limited availability meant that I had to take a cup size smaller than my usual sister size, but it fit well enough and only cuts in slightly across the top, which isn't visible through shirts. The honeycomb color is very pretty. The sheerness of the mesh and the stretchiness of the band means that it's almost imperceptible when worn. Consider getting a smaller sister size, especially at the smaller band sizes where each extra inch makes a big difference in support.
This was the first strapless that fit and didn't fall down all night. Most importantly for me, the cups were not so high that they popped out of the top of my dress. It does feel a bit tight, but I think that's unavoidable with a strapless and it didn't bother me.
This is the Poseidon colorway. The cups are deeper than expected. This was an Amazon Wardrobe item, so I'm not sure if my measurements are off from others' since this bra seemed to have been tried on. (Depth: 10" versus the 9.2" depth from the other bra here). Band: true to size, pretty unforgiving in stretch. Cups: Decently projected at wire, holds up my super soft unsupported tissue. Cups are slightly closed on top; it cut into my bigger breast but not my larger one. Wings: Could be slightly higher to prevent the wires from digging into the loose skin I have at the sides. Straps: No picot edges! Those with ToS struggles will rejoice. (why in the world does this bra have 1 hook? ??)
Band runs large by a couple of inches. I needed to put it on the tightest hook to make the center gore lie completely flat. I like the immediate projection at the wire. Like other Freya bras I’ve tried, the cups would fit perfectly except there’s a wrinkle at the very top. I’m going to be returning this.
This is one of the most supportive bras I’ve ever put on my body in terms of comfort- it seems to naturally correct my posture and relieved neck pain I had NO idea was related to the soft bralettes I’ve been wearing for the past couple of years. It stays in place throughout the day, including while I’m physically active. The wires sit in my IMF and I can literally take deeper breaths while I’m wearing it. You know that feeling when you’re in water and your boobs float? That’s what this bra felt like. Except add in feeling the occasional wire poke on the outer left while ...reaching forward. The band seems longer than my 30s in other brands, but there’s very little stretch, which I like because this fits me best on the tightest hook. HOWEVER, I think the cups are too tall for my body. It’s a perfect fit when I stand in a neutral position with arms down, no wrinkling and the top lies flat. If I slouch or reach forward, it gapes a lot at the top, because the top of the bra is basically right up at my armpit. So I’m basically limited to wearing loose crew necks with this. I wish there was a bra out there with the same level of support with a similarly non-stretchy band but with shorter cups. Read more 121 more words
I bought this hoping that the strap placement would be narrow enough for me, which I guess that parts OK, but the shape is all wrong. Cups are too wide and very closed off at the top.
