So pretty! The print is a floral explosion of vivid pinks & purples on a bright blue background. The pink lace edging on the cups is sooo cute,, and I adore that the they continue the print on the straps! I feel like I'm ready to dance at Carnavale in Rio!! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Can you tell it's been YEARS since I've worn anything but blacks & nudes?? https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> lol
Alrighty, time to be serious and break down the fit: this is a very lightly lined halfcup with great support through the band and perfectly-shaped (for me!) rounded cups. ... The straps dig a bit and are a bit scratchy w the lace (ETA softened nicely after washing. no discomfort now) - though in all fairness this is prob because this bra is ALSO a solid 1.5-2 cups too small and the band is a normal Freya 30, so it keeps hiking up and is prob more suited to a 32 but felt well-constructed. Boo!!!
Under clothing the vertical seams are pretty obvious, which is a downer. You either get over it or only wear it under layers or sweaters. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
Too small for me - why you no make this in HH & up cups and SMALLER bands?!?!
Still love it and will hold onto it until I find a well-fitted bra.
EDIT: I wore this today and noticed that the straps, while still wider than suits me, are closer set than my 30H - Freya » Marvel Side Panel Bra (1501) w unlined half up and the cups are less tall on the sides on the 30H - Freya » Parade Multi Padded Half Cup Bra (1793) as well. See pic

Really like the look of this bra (at least from the promo pics)! Curious how it looks irl :)
Stopping at H is better than G, but why Oh why can't they just do some serious upgrade to J, K or whatever..
Love some of Freya's designs but they always seem so slow to evolve / improve themselves :(
