This is the first time I've tried a "lightly padded" Freya. I own and love the Deco which is a thermally-molded, padded contour bra so it is thicker, and I take 1-size up from the unlined styles (Deco = 30G, unlined = 30FF, hence my id name).

The band fits well and the cup feels amazing in a G compared to the FF. I wanted to try 2 cup sizes to tell the difference. The half-cup style sits lower than a balcony, it is basically a demi bra. For this reason as well as the light padding I went with the larger G-cup because the girls sit more comfortable without fear of falling out. The shape is excellent, nice and rounded both parts: inside cup and tissue above. The center gore pulls away just a couple tenths of a centimeter but sits mostly flat when standing up proper and straight.

The colors are stunning and seem appropriate for year round. Color "Fruits" is floral shades of reds, browns & oranges with olive green trim. Some images online gave me hope the trim would be dark yellow but it's really a soft olive green which compliments the red tones very well.

Only concern is when I received it the inside of the cups were wrinkled beyond belief, I hope after a wash & air dry they might pop back into shape. Either way, the value of importing the bra by converting GBP£ into US$ was better than buying it domestically at a much higher price tag.

**Update: Happy to say after a thorough soak & wash with Forever New the cup wrinkling has mainly disappeared! Hurray!

Measured unstretched before wearing.
Purchased late-February '11 from figleaves.
