I was going to do a positive review and then I put this on and realized how badly it cuts into my boobs. Oh well.

This bikini is incredibly adorable! It looks like Minnie Mouse. I like the color combination and the shape of the neckline. The decorations at the edge of the cups really make the style. They are a bit impractical though, since they are made from thin strings which can gather sand and mud when swimming in a sea/lake. This doesn’t give an incredible uplift or shape, but good enough for a bikini and still keeps the girls decently in place. It’s also comfortable overall, although ... the neck tie does put some pressure on the neck.

I got this originally in 28E, and then repurchased in 28F after it got way too small. Although I’ve been wearing some newer Freya swimwear purchases more recently, I now realize that this style might actually fit better. It’s not ridiculously wide like some of the padded options. It offers some degree of projection, although still not a huge amount. My biggest issue here is that the trim at the edge of the cups cuts into my close-set, center-full breasts. It’s still not horribly visible, though, and the fit becomes a bit more flexible when the suit is wet. The closed edge does manage to keep my boobs somewhat separated, which I appreciate in something that I wear in public. The gore is luckily very low and doesn’t bother at all. The band feels a bit tighter than standard Freya, and feels snug enough for my 26 inch underbust (at least as a halterneck).

Another slight minus I have of this bra is that it’s unpadded. I’m not a fan of nipple show-through, and it’s cold in Finland! I also got the brief in size XS. Freya bottoms are usually rather loose for me even in the smallest size, but the swimwear seem to run a bit tighter. These fit rather snug, but are still a bit too high rise in the back for my taste.
