A very sexy bra that's excellent for projection. Gives breasts a lovely teardrop shape. I can see this bra not being well-suited for women who are full on top, as the stitching along the upper part of the cup is rather firm.
I got the 34G on a deep discount and the 34F I tried on was too small so I thought I'd try the G instead of FF. Big mistake, it's too big on the sides, I can feel the cups digging into my armpits. Everything else is fine, but the cups are definitely too big. Oh well, 34FF it is. I hope I can find this for a good price in a 34FF because it's such a beautiful bra in the purple with pinstripes colourway.
Definitely not as stretchy as normal Freya bands--it runs true to size. A minimal amount of padding. It feels a bit light/delicate, and the wires are a bit thin, but that's not really bad. Has only two lines for hooks. Very, very comfortable--an excellent bra for long-torsoed women. I ever so slightly can't fill the top, but I'm relatively shallow on top anyways, and it's close enough to get away with it. GOREGEOUS pattern!
This bra was just way too much bra for me, I am very short-waisted and it took up fully 2/3rds of my torso, I am now absolutely convinced that I have full on bottom breasts as I had immense gaping at the top, I am 34G in Freya pretty consistently but this looked and felt about 3 sizes too big in the cup. I also thought it was very ugly in the Nude. I didn't even bother to wear it , it lingers in my lingerie drawer...unloved.
Holy cow, this sucker is huge. Waaaaaaay too tall for my boobs. Wires are too wide, also.
Straps - fronts and backs, each side, have 2 sets of attachment loops. Pictures with straps show one side with the outside ones, and one with the inner.
This bra is like a breastplate of armor on me.
It's tight, but I kind of don't mind it. It's not uncomfortable on me and I know it's not going anywhere.
Top of band to cups has a double-line of silicone. Bottom is silicone all around except where the hook/loop section is and the underwire channel covers up directly underneath the boobs.
Going to try it in a 34FF and hope that the decreased depth + lower height + narrower wires are enough to make it work for me.
Hands down one of the most beautiful bras I've ever seen. I bought this a while ago when I was wearing 32H, hoping a 34G would be generous enough to still work. I've finally accepted that it will never fit right.
The cups are incredibly soft. The interior of the cups are lined with this charcoal grey mesh and are so comfortable even in the wrong size. The cups give a rounded shape under clothes but doesn't give in-your-face cleavage.
This bra is fairly shallow, and not compatible with my shape. But even if I had it in my current size, 32HH/J, I would still wear it. It is fairly girly with the tea rose print, and candy pink trim, but in a visually stunning way rather than young-girly. If I had it in my size, I would probably do a photo shoot with it.
very stretchy, rides up in the back. top layer of fabric does not lay flat against bottom layer of fabric and shows wrinkles even though the bottom layer is flush against the skin.
Nice shape, comfortable. I'm fairly shallow and it works really well for me. It doesn't have quite enough immediate bottom projection for me which causes some slight wrinkling in the bottom of the cups, but the wires aren't being pushed down at all, so it still works really well.
Super cute bra!!! Not an everyday bra, but cute for special occasions. Mom took me bra shopping for my bday last year, picked this one out! Cups are a tiny bit small now, gained about 20 pounds after loosing 130. Band still perfect. Can't win them all, but I'm going to get back there!
This is a very pretty bra, and from the reviews, one that is suppose to be good for projection. The band is stretchy so I sized down from a 36" band and tried three sizes in 34, an F, G, and GG. The G fit the best, although not perfect, but close enough to keep it. The wires are flexible. I have only worn the bra once and the material left red marks where the straps meet the cup. That was unexpected. I suspect with washing and more wear that will stop. There is very, very slight overspillage on the left, larger side and the gore almost, but not quite tack. Sizing up caused more issues with unfilled cups.
I absolutely adore this bra. Well, mostly. The seams on the front of the cups stick out and can easily be seen under any moderately tight blouse. With this particular size, the straps dig into my shoulders, but that's probably just because the band is too big on me.
Now that I'm through with complaining, here are the good things about the bra: The longline design is beautiful. It makes it look somewhat like a corset for that sexy feel. The large band comes down over my back bulges and smooths them out (awesome!) The cups are perfect for my ladies. There's no spillage, no folding on the cups, and no empty space left for anything more. I am in love with this bra, and will be buying more like it with smaller band sizes that coincide with the right cup sizes (if I can find them.)
I definitely would recommend this bra to a friend.
No, I don't know what I was expecting either. I bought it at the Nordstrom Rack sale even though I knew it was a full band size too loose and a full cup size (at least) too small. That said, it is an adorable bra.
I found this too tight around my ribs. My ribs stick out under my breasts, so it's more about my body than the bra. Maybe a 36 would've fit better. It made my tummy fat roll up more, though, which is what I was trying to avoid.
