Initially this bra was a pretty good fit for my shallow, FOT breasts. It seems sturdy and like it will hold up well with wear, and although not fancy it is nice looking. Though I have heard that Freya bands tend to run large, the band on this model is firm. It gives nice uplift with a rounded appearance and "cakes on a plate" cleavage, though I do sacrifice some projection for the cleavage.

When I first tried the bra on I thought it was perfect, but it quickly became very tight and uncomfortable. This was helped by bending the wires (carefully) to match the shape of my ribcage, as well as bending the gore away from my chest slightly. (Measurements were taken pre-bending.) As a plus, the straps are fully adjustable-YAY!

The Marvel comes up a bit high under the arms and cuts in/rubs a bit. I have only had the bra for about a week, so this may improve as it is broken in. This would be less annoying if the fabric were soft, but with the stiffer fabric I would hesitate to wear this bra if I were going to be doing something more active.

EDIT: After owning this bra for over a month now I have noticed that the tightness seems to be coming from the cups being a bit to shallow, and an overall mismatch with my breast shape. Still wearable and in my rotation of bras, just not the most comfortable.
