Didn't fit

This bra is soo old so I don’t know how much use this review is in 2017 but I’ll do it for the sake of completion. The Freya Amy is a related model, so the same exact cut, of the Antoinette and Adele. The Antoinette in red and beige were my first fitting bras when I got into bra sizing 5 years ago. I wore them and nothing but them for a year. they fit perfectly and were so comfortable I barely felt them. they gave me the best fully supported, lifted, minimized, and rounded breasts I’ve ever had...it was bra heaven, I could just forget I have boobs and go about my day.

Since that time I’ve gone up one or two cup sizes and I wear different bras but I’ve always wanted to try an Amy or Adele because I love their prints. I finally got ahold of an Amy and it’s just like the Antoinette, same cut and silky sturdy soft fabric, but this cut longer fits me like a glove.

This bra is slightly too large and projected in the cups for me. It can accommodate my top fullness and heavy immediate projection but I am shallow at my bust apex so I get wrinkling in these cups. I do with all cut and sew bras I’ve tried. They can still give me a rounded look but I can grasp the extra fabric at the apex. The fabric is so soft and smooth and firm; it can really shape you the way mesh unpadded bras cannot, provided the bra fits you.

The band is very firm so it fits my 26” back well for now. The straps are the widest I’ve ever encountered at .75”. The wires are firm and the flat type. The top portion is not stretchy at all.

This bra is not owned any more

    I had a very old Freya model once - the Phoebe. It was very strange for a Freya unlined bra... quite shallow at the underwire and had a very tight band. I heard once somewhere Freya used to have TTS or snug bands. Somewhere along the way they lost that lol.

    Yes I used to buy Freya once in a while, back in the late 1990s when rocks were soft! Tightest bands I ever wore--32 was a rib-crusher and I was probably around a 27.5" underbust back then.
