A very sexy bra that's excellent for projection. Gives breasts a lovely teardrop shape. I can see this bra not being well-suited for women who are full on top, as the stitching along the upper part of the cup is rather firm.

This is a really sexy bra, and while I don't like sheer/unpadded/unlined bras, this one is kind of an exception.
The cups are a strong mini mesh like thing, that prevents nipple show through. It would be even better for someone whose full on bottom with narrow boobs so that their nipple meets at the seams, but it works even without nipples meeting there.
The cups are slightly the wrong shape for me - too deep and closed off at top, but this isn't terribly noticeable as its only slight. I wish the gore was narrower, and cups wider because I'm not sure how much of my tissue will stay in after scooping it all in.
I'm not crazy about the shape it gives me, but it is quite natural and forward. The embroidery might show through shirts.
The band is unusual for Freya, it's quite firm for a 28 in my opinion.
Overall this is a nice bra. It would suit someone better whose probably full on bottom a bit with narrow boobs.

Beautiful bra, but way too small!

While I was a 30DD, this bra only fit with an extender. Without it, the cups distorted and cut in. Otherwise, I liked this bra very much. The shape was good, and the fit was comfortable aside from the gore being too high and pokey.

Bra has a snug band, only reaching 32 inches when fully stretched. Possibly a mislabelled 30, but feels loose for what I would consider a true 30 band. Cups are true to size as a 32G, however.

This bra is gorgeous, but doesn't even come close to fitting me. The Arabella has a very firm band. It was tight on me, even knowing it was mislabelled as a 32 (actually a 30. It's firm for a 30. Whew.) The projection is waaaay too deep for me, and everything wrinkles funny on me. Would be ideal for someone with very projected breasts. I also found that the outer edge of the cup dug in to my armpits, which surprised me a little because I have low-set breasts. I'm a 2/5 FOB, and I couldn't fill out the cup. Someone with a 6 shape would fill it much better.
Nothing wrong with the bra. It just doesn't work for me.

This bra was too small. Quad boob effect. Pity because it's a pretty bra. Next time, I ought to try a 28E, which is my usual Freya size.

This is the best fitting bra I own right now, initially discouraged by the sheer and unpadded cup, it's turned out to be a winner! I would highly recommend this bra to anybody who is FOB and narrow.
Pros
Looks cute
Sturdy straps
Band is well constructed and doesn't make me look lumpy
Gives a great shape
Cons
Some may not like that it's sheer

Underwires poke me under the arm
This bra is practically brand new so the measurements I've taken shouldn't be too far from the new item.
The Freya Arabella has been around for some time, I think it was probably one of the Freya bras I ever saw. I've come close to buying it a few times but I've always put it off. I actually didn't ...

The appearance of this bra is very nice, but the shape it give underneath clothes, is natural, I would say. I find that it is round for me, but not very lifted or very in front as in Cleo bras. Also, I think it enhace the size difference between my breasts when I wear it under clothes, which is strange.
The underwires are a touch narrower than those in Cleo, which means they fit me perfectly. They are also sturdy and rigid, how I like.
The cups fit me very good on my larger breast, on my smaller one it wrinkles because of the unfilled space left there.
I have to ... tighten a lot the straps, I can't figure out why, in Cleo it isn't necessary to do this.
The band is quite stretchy, even though it's 28 size (I wear 30 in Cleo), but it remains supportive, stays in place when I move and it doesn't ride up. It just feels stretchy.
Maybe sheer bras aren't for me, as I have different nipple positions (one is lower than the other) and different breast. I would like the band to be lined, but it is meant to be sheer, so I guess it's part of design.
I think I like more Cleo unpadded bras, because of their lift, support, shape, soft fabrics and prints, even though their underwires are a little wider than I need ( have an 1/2 cm extra width).
Also, it can be a bother the high cut of the bra, because I need to wear high cut necklines and I'm not used, but now and then I like to have the breasts fully enclosed, so it's helpful in the end.
