I previously owned Pansy in 30G, which I eventually sold because it was a solid cup size too big and gaped terribly. But, being the bra addict that I am, I couldn't stop thinking about it, and decided to re-purchase it cheaply in a distant sister size which I took in to fit as a 30FF.

The print is just extraordinary, possibly the best floral I've ever seen in a bra! It's dark and moody with super realistic deep blue, violet, magenta and white pansies... they remind me of the singing flowers in Alice in Wonderland https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Layered blue and black bows sit ... near the straps and on the center gore, and scalloped black lace covers both the longline band and the back of the matching shorts. The comfort is just excellent... the fabric is super soft and the wires are totally non-irritating. The shape is lifted and completely round with very minimal "padding." The wire width and projection is moderate, comparable to a Fauve or Fantasie halfcup. The only fit issue I have with this bra is one that I've had with all Freya longlines I've ever tried: the band has no boning, so it bunches up as soon as you're not standing still. I've experimented with hooking the last couple hooks on the second column instead of the third, but that only delays the issue rather than preventing it. Otherwise, I just adore Pansy and will never get rid of her again!
