I like this bra a lot. I had to size up in the cups. When it first arrived I was scared because the band looked tiny, but it is really stretchy so it fits true to size. The lace on the top of the cup is really stretchy too, which will prevent any quad-boobing. It gives me a nice round shape and doesn't separate my boobs, which is a pet peeve of mine. One issue I have with this bra is that because the cups are so stretchy, it can be quite bouncy. I don't feel like I will escape the bra, because it does come up high ... enough, but I would not recommend trying to run in it for any reason.

My main problem with this bra is that the underwire is so wide, it goes about an inch and a half past the end of my breast tissue and the wire pokes me back by the inner side of my shoulder blade. I've tried bending the wires away from me to stop the poking, but ideally I would have sent it back when I realized the issue.

I want to love this bra, but the underwire just does not work for me.

I like this bra. I think the print is gorgeous (I love florals) and it looks lovely on. The fit would be perfect, but there are a few things that are just a little off. I do have a bit of wrinkling in the bottom of the cup and about a cm of space around the sides and bottom of the wires that is not filled. I wish the wires were slightly narrower or shorter, and I wish the lace on top was a little tighter. The lace is really thin though, so it doesn't show under a shirt. I had to extend the straps because they were ... too short for me, but that was an easy fix and now they work just fine. I wish the straps were a little closer together in the back because they feel like they want to slip down when they aren't going to.

That's a lot of complaints, but this bra is comfortable for every day wear. I recently got my Lily in the mail (review to come) and it solves most of these problems. I think the Lily is the bra for me.

I think I would like this bra if only it fit. I bought a cup size up and it's still too small, I explode out the top, as you can see in the pictures. I can't really assess the shape because of this. I did notice it does spread my boobs apart more than I would like but I can't really say much more than that. Definitely order one to two cup sizes up!

I had the caramel color in a 30G. I usually wear a 32FF even though I measure 29 inches around, but I thought I'd try a 30 for once. This is also my first experience with Freya bras. The band for me was too tight on the loosest hook and it's not very stretchy. I'd say it probably runs small in the band. The cup size very good for me though; no quad boob or extra space. It is a very deep cup though; I had a slight wrinkling right at the apex of the cup.
The bra is very pretty and I love the color and the pattern. ... The material for the cups and the band is very soft compared to some of my Cleo bras. It has lace all around the outer edges, which didn't bother me for the short time I had it on. The straps are very thick and have a layer of embroidery to prevent slipping.
What I didn't like was the shape it gave me. I found that it had very little lift and that I could be much better off in other styles. I'm not sure if this will be the case for others, but for me it just didn't seem to do anything spectacular. I will be returning this bra because of the shape.

This bra was too small in the cup for me and I felt like the weight of my breasts kind of weighed the cups down, causing it to fold over a little at the bottom. The wires poked me on my sides a little bit. I think this may be because they don't come up quite as high as I would have liked. I think this bra would work great for some people, but not for me. I'd rather stick with my Parfait by Affinitas Casey/Jeanie bras.
