My shape : pendulous, very projected, short roots, narrow roots but wide set, full on bottom, outer full. Bras are often too open on top for me, too wide and shallow or both. It's really hard for me to find a bra that isn't too wide and shallow. But this bra fits great. It isn't the most narrow, but it's got a lot of immediate projection and is quite closed on top. It's definitely not a bra that would fit a FoT shape, tall roots, or a wide or shallow shape. And this is precisely what I was looking for.
And this is such a pretty and sexy bra. No need to buy anything from Victoria's Secret if this lovely bra fits ! It's also just as comfortable. The plush materials of the straps and band are just as soft as a Victoria's Secret bra. Not the sturdiest, as the band is really large and stretchy (I recommend to sister size down), but it's so soft.
However, the one thing I really don't like is the single hook. Especially with such a stretchy band. It doesn't feel very secure and I'm a bit too afraid to wear this bra at work ! And TBH, this is the reason why I waited for so long before trying it for the first time. I'd certainly have already bought several of these if not for this single hook. Why such a design choice for a DD+ bra, Freya ? I don't get it. Please change this detail !

  Wow, a single hook? That's terrible! Glad it fits you otherwise!

• I also have FoB and projected boobs. Not like you, most of the bras that made with lace in my reference size just cut into my breast tissues. And I also have problem with the gore, 2.5 cm separation with 5 cm height is way too wide for my close set. But I think maybe you just have a average set rather than a wide set if the gore really fit you.

  Wilderness1 yeah it’s part of the gateway back style but totally agree that the DD+ should have 2 hooks.

• smjwzhan I have 4 cm of separation between my boobs, they're also very narrow, fortunately they're very soft so a narrow plunge bra manages to bring my breast tissue to the front. Any higher gore than that ends up too narrow on top and fits awfully. Unfortunately many plunge bras are too shallow or too wide and I wish there would be more plunges with different cuts as they look like they're almost all cut the same. I'm struggling to find anything like this in my country.

• Stella85 , I have a similar shape to you and was considering this bra. However, the single hook was putting me off as well - it's certainly not very secure! I wonder if you could sew an extender onto the band above the single hook? (attach each end underneath the gateway part). Or use old bra parts you already have, if you save that kind of thing. Of course that would be a lot of trouble and it might not be as easy as I'm making it seem, LOL!

  It is also not easy for me to find a perfect plunge. Some of them have too tall cups, the others are too shallow. But I've heard that the Bravissimo Satin Plunge can be right for FoB and projected boobs. Maybe you can try it.

• The first time I tried this bra, I was trying to hook it in the back, and I had not really noticed that it was one hook - until I couldn't find the second hook to hook. I was far more confused than I should have been. *snickers at self*
