For me this bra was a smidge too tall, and the straps killed the fit for me. I was trying to sister size into this size as I need a 28" or less band. The band on this however was WAY too stretchy. I immediately wore it on the last hook and even then it was too much stretch. I had read a few reviews from folks with very similar measurements to mine online before purchasing this bra. They had said it had fit them well, but this was not the case for me.
What didn't work:
1.) The straps are far too wide set for me. This tells me ... I can't sister-size in Freya bras at least with this sort of material as it is far too wide for my frame.
2.) I would have needed the cups to be more close-set. I had read that they were a bit separated, I should have weighted that more heavily in my decision making process.
3.)The straps were strangely long for me. Actually the longest I've ever encountered in a bra. I couldn't even fasten the J-hook because once I shortened the straps enough that they weren't falling off my shoulders the J-hook racerback converter was at the same point as the back of my neck. So unless I wanted to wear it like a halter top or bikini top then I would not be able to fasten it at all.
4.) I filled the cups, but the bottom of the cup did not have enough projection for my breasts. This has become a common issue of mine with bras no matter the style: moulded, padded, lined or unlined.
The fabric of the cups were comfortable, and overall the materials were very comfy.
Overall, I think would have been a good bra for me if it had been much less wide-set in general. It was very comfy, and I liked the feel the bra in general. I'll be returning this for a smaller band size from Amazon if I can get it. I want to see if a 28GG is any better.
