I got this bra from another user and my first impression, it's much much prettier in person! The colors are so vibrant and fun! Total summer bra. I wasn't sure how the 28FF would fit, since I'm always back and forth with Freya, either a 28FF or a 28G. The 28FF seems to fit nicely. There is a little tiny bit of the cup digging in at the top where the lace is but its so minimal and barely noticeable. This bra is SUPER DUPER comfy!!! I'm actually very impressed! I thought for sure the gore would bother me like most bras do with gores of this height, ... but it's not a problem at all.
The band seems pretty stretchy for a 28 and I had to hook it on the second set of hooks right away. The straps are very comfy and soft and aren't too far apart. They aren't fully adjustable but that doesn't bother me. The wires are just the right width for me, and the cups have moderate projection. I might even be able to do a 28G in this. I was just worried the cups would wrinkle. The shape I get with this bra is a very natural look, a little on the pointy side, but not overtly so. I tried a tight tank top on with it and it's not bad, not as round as I prefer but def wearable. It looks pointier from the side and at an angle. From the front it looks fantastic (so that's why the models never show a side view!!).
But overall, I really like this bra. And as always with Freya, for me anyway, the band is staying in place! No need to tug or yank it back down. And sublimely comfortable!! I honestly wasn't expecting this nice of a fit from an unlined bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
UPDATE: So I wore this for a few hours and when I took it off, OUCH! The gore dug into my sternum so badly, left a very nasty red indentation https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I had a complete red outline of the entire bra, gore, wires, band and all. Lol. Just a tad too tight.
