The cups on this bra are super stiff and thick. The fabric is soft. The size might be too big for me as the top of the cups cut into my arms. Would love to try this in a cup size smaller.
I bought this in a 30F and it was love at first sight. Unfortunately I was over-tightening the straps, which masked the fact the cups were too big. I loved the bra so much that I bought it again in 30E and I'm so glad I did. I was worried I'd lose too much cup height by going down a size, but it's a perfect fit. The band is a true 30, nice and firm, and the cups fit me perfectly. They give a rounded, soft hills look. The bra is very comfortable and I feel supported.
Why do I keep buying these? They're so pretty but never work for me. This one seems a bit smaller than the Patsy and others I tried. The cups seem shorter and smaller overall
This bra is so pretty, so I'm really sad it doesn't work for me. The cups fit well on my smaller breast, but the nipple on my larger side is threatening to pop out the top of the cup. The top of the cups are very open, and I worry that going up a size will result in gapping, especially on my smaller side.
The detailing on the cups are very evident through light/thin shirts.
Pretty bra, but it doesn't fit me. I think I'd have more luck if I sized up a cup size. I tried a different Freya padded half-cup in a larger cup size, and it fit beautifully.
I thought the bra was very well constructed. The materials used seem to be high quality and the padding gives support and nipple coverage without adding a lot of bulk. The fabric feels a little stiff and scratchy at first, but I think I could get used to it. The seams in the cups aren't too evident, but the frills at the top of the cups show through most of my tops.
This is a beautiful t-shirt bra and I love the round but projected shape it gives me. Fits just like the Deco swim bikini top, but about 1 cup smaller. The j hook on the back is great for my shape and easy to fasten, and the straps can be at long enough to work with the j hook. The cups do poke my armpits a little, but apart from that I'm super happy with this bra. I got this through a bra swap and am so excited it fits https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
I would have sworn this was a 30F. (In fact, in one of my other reviews I think I said it was, and then I checked the tag...) I have 4234 in a 30D that has the same fit issue, aside from the fact that this one is decidedly too big and the D is certainly too large: my breasts slide in towards the center, leaving me with gaping on the outer sides and quad boob potential in the center. The top of the cup crease outwards, making the bra visible under shirts. Surprisingly do not have this issue in my 30E deco honey...for which the gaping is also less noticeable. I *want* to love this bra, but I just can't. Comfortable, and good fit in straps and band, but the shape is entirely off for me.
The stretchy band and straps on this bra make it feel very unsupportive on me. It seems hardly worn, but still a large band. In one way, I put it on and it feels like I'm wearing nothing - I guess because the band isn't digging in. Comfy at first, but unsupportive. Freya wires seem to bother me a lot, so the comfort doesn't last anyway.
I guess the cups are too shallow on me - I get the best fit by overtightening the straps. This lets the wire stay in my IMF, but is uncomfortable to wear for long.
This bra makes me want to apologize to all my past and present Cleo bras for complaining about their garish colors and excessive lace and frills.
This bra has none of that. Just the standard beige t-shirt bra with the expected bows and borders. Nothing wrong with that, I have tons of beige t-shirt bras! Maybe this design feels more old fashioned somehow? Overall it just feels less attractive somehow in its cut and fit. The stock photo model has clevage but i have modesty.
The bra does do its job well. I was surprised the white seam disappeared so well.
I find the shape it gives me to ...be a bit minimized and flattened. The fit is confusing. While I originally thought it was a bit small, measuring it showed it to run large for a 30E - larger than I need. I guess it is a shape issue. I think I need more room at the bottom of the cups.
The band measures large, but it isnt one that has bothered me. The wires are hard and stabby, making me glad the band isn't tighter. Read more 77 more words
reminds me of one bra I got - it was plain beige but somehow ugly, didnt support me much, and 1just didnt like it. I was able to return it tho.
I have it too and also in the same size and I really like it (my review here: http://bra.pe/XQVs/) I wish Freya make another bra in this cut. It's not super comfortable but I like the shape it gives me and it's also almost invisible under white t-shirts.
A huge disappointment for me; the realisation just kicked in that longlines are not my friends. Besides the bra being at least a cup size too small, I just can't stand the feeling of it. Maybe sensory issues, idk. Meh
The bra is beautiful. The straps feel plush when wearing it. And the good ends there. The band seems way too big to be a 30. The center gore, while placed low like a plunge, is painful. It presses into the space right where the ribs separate causing me to move the bra up out of position. The cups are made for a different breast shape/type. It seems more suitable for low-set breasts that are more full on top, with a lot of natural projection. This bra doesn't add or take any projection away. I'm neither shallow or really projecting, I'm somewhat narrow breasted, very high-set, equally full ...on top as on bottom. I fill out the bra all the way up to the apex, perfectly placed, but I stop filling out the bra an inch above my nipples. Doesn't sound like much, but for me this bra is a lot of coverage and the cups aren't the thinnest along the edges. It may fit me better when my breasts swell so, this may end up being my PMS bra.

Somehow even though the wires measure like they are narrow, they end up being too wide when the bra is on. The band fits comfortably on the loosest setting, but it only has 2 settings.
Too open on the top for me The cups are too wide. Straps rub I want to get a 28F, because of the band-- The sliders are at the top of my shoulders, but I kind of want to size down to a 28E because of the room at the top of the cups.
This ALMOST fits me, but not quite. Band is true to size. Cups are hard to say...maybe a half cup undersized? The gore doesn't sit flat, and when I push it flat then it quad boobs. But if I don't push it flat, it gaps in the upper outerside of my boobs.
Nice bra, but not sure about it. Though the gore doesn't get in the way (not painful & sits flat), the bra is wide-set: meaning I'm nearly falling out the middle and there is empty space on the outside. The upper rim is too stiff to conform to my shape. It is very difficult to clasp to convert it to a racerback without assistance or fastening the band and twisting it around backwards to reach. Same difficulty with getting out of it from raceback mode.
28f would be netter for me concerning This bra. The fabric is smooth and i like the style.The loose part of fabric unser the band ticles at the skin a bit.
reminds me of one bra I got - it was plain beige but somehow ugly, didnt support me much, and 1just didnt like it. I was able to return it tho.
