This bra is beautiful. It has lots of projection, but sadly, the wires are too narrow for me.

I'm not sure why this bra doesn't fit, but I know it doesn't! I'm asking for fitting help to figure it out, but it looks like the band and/or the cups are too small.

I love this bra, it fits quite well. I have narrow roots so this bra has a good width for me. The only thing that is a negative is the band. It rides up slightly, I don't know if it's because it is too big or because this bra only has one hook.

This was one of the 8 bras I tried in my first Amazon Prime Wardrobe Box! (Sadly, 8/8 did NOT fit)
Ok, the note I have written for this bra is: "TOO BIG" in all caps, hahah! So yeah, this seems to run big.
And again, the one hook clasp is a dealbreaker for me. It might work for others, but not this gal. Three hooks or bust!
I ordered this in the graphite color, which was really pretty! It's a nice alternative to a black bra. I also liked the little peekaboo hole in the gore.
Overall? Cute bra, but at least one cup size too large.This bra is not owned any more

This is my second Freya Fancies bra, a giveaway from SoM . The Fancies plunge has quite deep, tall cups that are fairly closed at the top, with an elastic trip along the top of the cups - it might be an especially good fit for shapes that tend towards FOB and are quite shallow on top. I'm even to FOT with tall roots so the elastic cuts in on me a bit. The lace portion at the top is not stretch lace, so that's another thing to consider if you're FOT or have tall roots. It gives a natural, gently sloped profile with a slight ... peak.
The Fancies Plunges is a very delicate looking, lightweight bra, and is great for wearing in summer months. In my photos you can see that the gore on this bra has been altered - the wires have been pushed down and the top of the gore has been cut off - it's fraying and needs a bit of a repair job. I'm going to do my best and give it a bit of TLC, and hopefully I'll be able to wear it next summer.

I don't even know why I bothered to try this bra. I guess it just looks too good. Although the top seam is stretch lace, there is an elastic near the edge so the cups still cut into my tall roots. The band is a little stretchy and is too loose. There is only one hook so it doesn't make me feel too secure. This bra is projected like other Freya plunge balconies, but it's more like a balcony than a real plunge. The gore is quite high. The cups are also too tall.

Very pretty. The cups are on the taller side, which suits me. The lace is very delicate and lovely, but not the softest. The band fits like a 30 1/2 on me. I have a little wrinkling on the outer top corner, not sure why, but it doesn't cause me any trouble.
EDIT: the wrinkling has gone now - I've put on a bit of weight recently. I haven't found the Fancies plunge very supportive - I get quite a lot of jiggling actually.

I am still on my journey to find the correct size for myself. I bought this bra together with Curvy Kate's Dreamcatcher on size 36G.
When I first tried them I thought they were a perfect fit until I learned to "scoop and swoop". After that I noticed that the center does not lie flat against my chest so the cups are a bit too small. However there is no spilling in the cups (or if there is, very minor so I can't really see it. Still learning here!). It feels comfortable to wear though as I have been using the wrong size for years so I don't know ... yet how properly fitting bra looks and feels. Getting there eventually!https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> The band is a bit looser compared to CK's Dreamcatcher, so I think I might be able to wear 34 as well. Will try that one later.
I love the looks of this bra though and tempted to buy it in red too and bigger size to see how it looks on me.

Excellent fit, gives a great rounded and uplifted shape, much better than many other Freya balconette bras which give me slightly pointy boobs instead of the round look I like. The lace is firm, slightly itchy right now but I think some wear and a wash will help that. The top of the cup has a stretchy band so it's firm but it doesn't cut in. The back only has one row of hooks, but it's very stable nonetheless. It's a very pretty and sexy bra, while also quite practical.

Pretty, and works for backless or semi backless things in the way non-busty people do cute bralettes. Fabric is a little high under the arms and shows at the edge of tank tops, seams are visible but not too bad. Comfortable, and pretty.
