So I decided to see what the fuss with the Freya Deco is all about. I did read on a couple of bra blogs how the Deco may not work for you if you have a wide root and/or are bottom heavy. So I did not go into this expected miracles and glitter shooting out of my cleavage.
But, I found this model to be pretty comfortable. I think I need to try it in a different size because 32F just seems wrong. Either that, or the cups are wrong for me. It would make sense that a Freya 32 band wouldn't work for me, because most Freyas ... that fit best that I've tried on have a 30 band (my underbust is 31"). Anyway, I ended up fastening this with the tightest hook.
Basically, my cups runneth over in this thing, while at the same time, there is some weird lumpiness or wrinkling going on at the bottoms of the cups where it is devoid of breast tissue. That wrinkling may be due to the cups being stretched too wide in an attempt to accomodate my wide boobs. When I scoop and swoop, the effect is almost comical: quadboob everywhurrr as well as stuff spilling over in the armpits. (There should be pictures with this review -- if you look at the side view photo you will see what I mean by boobs a straining and exploding).
I noticed as I wore the Deco throughout the day that I didn't have to do much adjusting. I've read about how gapping can occur once bottom-heavy breasts have settled but I didn't have that problem. Basically all that happened was that the quadboobs settled down. In fact, the Deco made my breasts look quite presentable under a dress with a wrap front. I will probably continue to wear this bra until I find a better plunge option.
I would very much like to try the Deco out in a 30FF or 30G before I wash my hands clean of this model. It could be 32F is just wrong or it could be that the cup shape is just not for me :'(
