What a bust - Supposedly this bra is a recolor of Freya Viva. It’s not though. It doesn’t fit at all the same! I’m astonished how they managed to do that tbh. I love the original Freya Viva bras (in black with pattern and white with pattern) but this one is such a let down. I expected it to fit like my other viva bras - tight stretch lace at the top, short wings that don’t dig in, no problems with spillover or excess fabric at the bottom. Yet I not a single thing I love about my viva bras can be applied to this one.
As is very ... clear from my pictures, the stretch lace at the top is NOT tight. There’s excess fabric at the bottom because the cup is too shallow there and it folds atrociously (like my pictures of Freya Fancies only much worse.
The wire felt different too, a lot softer and not stiff at all.
In fit it’s closer to Freya Fancies and Expression IMHO, except the wire is not stiff like Fancies. Maybe even some of the Curvy Kate bras I’ve tried.
I really, really wished they’d kept the shape and fit of the original Viva bra...

Oh no! You should definitely email freya about these concerns, they shouldn't say that this bra is the same as the other viva when it's so different! That's crazy.
