There's a lot already said about this bra, so I'll keep it simple and just explain how it fit me.

* Band feels true to size. For whatever reason (maybe the height of the band?), it doesn't do anything to help control the fluff over my wide lats.
* The J-hook will be a good alternative to a strapless bra for summer time tops.
* Strap length is fine in standard position, but barely long enough when the J-hook is connected into the racerback position. Cuts into the tops of my shoulders. Hope that loosens up with washing and wearing.
* Strap width is annoying wide. Front strap separation is annoying; set too far apart.
* The gore is low and stays out of the way. Tacks nicely without being uncomfortable.
* The wires tuck under my IMF pretty well; better than most.
* The cups are slightly wide and slightly shallow on me. Wish it had a little more depth and a little less width. Still, projection at the wire is better than I expected.
* When standing straight with good posture, the cup quads just a bit on my larger side. And when rolling my shoulders forward, the cup gapes on my smaller side. Sigh...I can't win!

Update:
* The issue of the wide-set straps making the cups buckle is super annoying!
* (What I never noticed until now is in the first half of the questions "How Does it Fit?" it asks if the straps are too far apart. But in the second "Assessment" page, it doesn't give the option to clarify.)
* Maybe if Freya designed a scaled down version of this for petites, I'd get a much better fit: less height and width in the cups (but more depth, even at the gore); make the straps narrower, and bring them closer to center... and they'd have a perfect winner!
2nd update:
As I did with the black Freya Deco (4234) I have, I also repositioned the straps on this one about 1cm closer to center, simply by lining up the edge of the cups with the edge of the straps.
