Side escape! Cups are way too small.

This is a beautiful, soft, sexy bra. The colors are vivid, and the bra looks and feels very feminine. The material makes it comfortable in hot weather as well. Unfortunately, I bought this before I understood much about sizing. I purchased a 28D, and both the band width and the cups (mostly the cups) are too small. The cups do stretch reasonably, so when I wear this for a couple of hours it's pretty comfortable, however, the underwires in the cups are really much too short. As a result, this bra is too low at the top sides of the cups and too ... low at the armpit, causing underarms rolls that cannot be scooped into the cups. From the side and when my arms are lifted the excess tissue is impossible to miss. If I manage to pack it all into the cups, giving myself "quad-boobs" in the process, it slips out within seconds. I love the cut, shape, style, and feel of this bra, but if you have wide-set, wide-based breasts, the underwires probably won't encompass all the tissue unless you buy a bigger cup than you expect. Rather than push in the tissue and elongate the breasts, they push tissue outside of where the bra ought to be. While I love my Freya bras for the uplift and sleek look they provide, the underwires in my my Ada "plunge" style are nearly 2.5 cm shorter than the underwires in my Just Flew In "longline"; both sizes 28D. The cups in the longline have a couple of minor issues, but they definitely offer more comfort and support than the Ada plunge underwires.
