  1. Swing Sweetheart Padded Bikini Top (3423)

    30G

    Didn't fit

    The adorable pattern is just as cute in real life as it is in the photos. The underwire casing on the inside is the striped fabric, which I find charming. The padding isn't really, just a thin layer of thicker fabric to discourage nipple show-through. The fabric is smooth, not itchy, and dense enough to be supportive.

    The shape I get is nice: adequate coverage, not too much cleavage. The cups might be too big, but I can't tell if going down a cup will help. The 28G balcony Mirage was definitely too small--quadraboob galore--so that's why I went up a cup with the sister size.

    The band is slightly ... loose; I'd say about as tight as a regular 28 band Freya day bra. (The Mirage was possibly on the too-tight side, a rare occurrence.) I had an issue with the clasp popping open, but I think that's because I didn't fasten it fully. The mechanism is novel to my fingers.

    Update: When I'm just a bit more bloated due to menstruation, the cups fit me perfectly. So, all I need to do is be bloated all the time, clearly.

  2. Pier Halter Bikini Top (3019)

    This is by far the best swimsuit I’ve ever had. I originally ordered and reviewed a size 30FF and after trial and error, and realizing I am not a 30FF, I reordered in my now actual size a 28GG in the bright pink color.
    The shape is a sweetheart neckline with a ruffle detail along the top of the cup. The underwired cups and wings are lined with mesh material to help keep its structure. It has one plastic clasp in the back with a halter style tie at the neck. The tie straps are thick and have some sort of reinforced elastic material inside the straps to ... aide in support. I still have the complaint that after wearing it for an extended period of time the knotted part of the tie starts to dig in and irritate my neck no matter how loos or tight I tie it.

    I paired this top with the matching bikini bottoms (#3022) that have a little ruffle detail on the hips that matches the ruffles on the top of the cups. This suit is fun and functional and very flattering.

  3. Neptune Bikini Top (9901)

    28FF

    Didn't fit

    I based the size of this bikini top with Freya bras I've fit in and I found this to be too tight. I couldn't event fasten it! If you generally need a band smaller than 28 this may work for you.

    Overall, I like the colour and the straps have a shimmery look to them. The only thing I don't quite like are some of the hardware on the straps. On the front, you have the metallic circles connecting the straps to the cups, but on the back, the adjuster and connector are both white. I think they would look better if they matched the connector on the front.

    Neptune short:
    The fit and coverage is good. I just don't think the style is for me since it tends to bunch up around the crotch area.

    Ordered this bikini for less than buying in a local shop where I first tried it on about two months ago. Anticipated the fit to be exactly the same and it is! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    80% Nylon/Polyamide, 20% Lycra. As a non-padded cup type it fits exactly as a non-padded Freya bra does although because of the material it gives a wonderfully rounded shape! Pleased to have found a great fitting bra sized bikini set.

    Underwire length and contour is great, I'm usually a Freya girl. If I get picky there could be a tiny bit more coverage in the underarm but I think I just need some more workouts. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

    Will further update after eventual first swim...

    Purchased mid-July 2011 from Figleaves.

    This is a great bikini top! Though it is non-wired, it fits perfectly, the band is comfortable and the cups as well.
    I also tried it in size 30E, but here the band was way too tight (and the cups were a bit too small).

    Supportive bikini top with inner underwire cups and outer layer of sturdy fabric. Would say the cup shape is almost a weird pointy style but it doesn't matter because of the outer fabric.

    Love this top, it's my go-to swim top! Really flattering blue color and great fit for my FOB, center-full, very projected, and narrow boobs. Feels secure in the ocean and for walking around. Would definitely repurchase in additional colorways.

    Super comfortable and cute! Have gained a little weight since I first purchased this and at this point could probably use a cup size up. I typically fit Ewa Michalak BMs and CHPs the best (FOB, narrow, center full, projected) so I was surprised that this Freya swim top fit me so well! Would definitely repurchase in my correct size in additional colorways.

    The band is nice and snug. The top is comfortable, but I feel like it crushes my breasts a bit and gives me a tiny bit of quadding.

    It looks cute and it fits me well, but I wish I would I would have gone up a cup size as it is perhaps too revealing. I plan on having it altered to shorten the straps, but this is a problem I have with almost every bra I've ever had.

    The color, pattern, and design is very cute though!! I am excited to wear it as it is the first bikini I've had that comes close to fitting me.

    28GG

    Fits

    Fits perfectly (BUT: ABTF calculator suggests 30F/FF, however other 30-band swimsuits felt too loose (especially if they expand in water) and I found that FF sometimes is too small (but other times OK).

    Took a leap of faith that 28GG would fit well - it fits amazingly (gore sits exactly where needed, band is secure but not too tight, very slight wrinkle at top of cup - but that is almost impossible to avoid with my breast shape).

    TBC how it does in water.

    Didn't fit

    My stats: 26GG/H according to the ABTF calculator, slightly FOT, firm tissue, tall and narrow roots, center full, close set and functionally high set.

    The look:
    This bikini is a simple padded half cup with decorative buttons at the gore and. The bottoms are hipster style

    The fit:
    The band was too loose for me and the cups were far too wide and shallow.

    I found this bra really comfortable. The padding isn't thick but still offers some nipple modesty (I will update when I've actually used it wet). It fastens using a plastic clasp.

    My shape: projected, close-set, narrow and tall roots, even fullness

    This bikini is pretty much the opposite of that: the cups are wide and shallow, the gore is wide, the separation is huge. I'd still wear it only if it didn't cut into my breast tissue at the top. It looked much better on the model, haha

    Otherwise, it is quite cute and comfortable. Wish it was a Comexim

    UK 28FF/G. My fit needs: projected, immediately projected, slightly narrow, fob with tall roots (functionally even), very close set, very center full.
    Grrr, I wish that this fit me. It's a little wide. Unlined's already look deflated on me because there's no lift, which is essential for my congenital symmastia to look ok with how low cut this is, but this was also 1 cup size too big.

    Fits

    This bra is very comfortable and I don't have any real issues with it. One thing that I appreciate is that it isn't one of those plunge bikinis that attempts to shove the breasts together to create a huge line of cleavage. Instead, it is open in the middle while retaining separation. I would prefer if the wires were a little wider for my slightly wide roots, but they are just barely wide enough that they don't sit on tissue. My breasts are about 2lb and this weight creates some pressure on the neck due to the bra being in a halter style; I can tolerate it, but ... women with heavy breasts might not enjoy this style.

    Instead of having hooks, this bra has a strange plastic closure that snaps into place. It's not difficult once you figure out how it works, but I wonder about how it might stand up to wear. The band isn't as loose as some other Freya bands, but I'll probably have to shorten it if it stretches out since there is only one band setting with the unique closure.

    I have the grey version of this top. I bought this a few years ago before covid, so the fit has changed a bit. Then I was ~5 lbs and much tequila flab lighter, i had trouble filling the cup at the top more often than not. Now, I have a perplexing quadboob while not quite filling the top of the cup at the outer edges, but also spilling out the sides at the armpits. I think the cup volume is okayish, but maybe the wire is too narrow and doesn't come up high enough on the outer sides. Gore sits fine, and I like the thicker straps.
    I'm 5'3" and the straps adjust short enough for my liking. Overall the construction seems very solid and the design is cute without being cutsey, so I do plan to keep it until I find something that properly fits/I can use it as incentive to pare down a bit.
