They straps are long, and don't adjust short enough. As a result I get slight gaping in the cups when I slouch. Cups fit good, true to size. Has a very big band, size down at least one size if you can.

The bra is a great fit. As usual, due to the half cup/cup difference between my breasts, the right bra at times shows the slightest quad boob effect and the left cup has slight gaps, this is my desired fit since I do not want to mess around with silicone inserts for the smaller breast.

Freya underwires fit me snugly yet comfortably, and it is no different with this bra. No poking whatsoever.

The band fits comfortably on the first set of hooks and snugly on the second.

The shape is quite good too. The 28E - Freya » Gem Balcony Bra (1361) gives me a more natural shape whereas this is a bit more rounded without becoming semi-circular.

I just love this bra.

I certainly had some major fit issues with this bra. I followed some general advice I'd seen and tried ordering a smaller band as the band is quite stretchy. The band felt alright, but the cups were all wrong for me. The center seam wrinkled/bunched terribly. I don't know if this was a result of the cups being too shallow or another shape incompatibility, but I've seen the same problem on other user's pictures in the smaller size range. I also had some gaping along the edge of the cup that runs from the outside of the strap along my armpit to the top of the wing. It was as if the sides of the cup were too open; a problem I've never encountered before! (In fact it's usually quite the opposite, where that edge of the cup cuts in.) I may yet try this bra in a different size to see if any issues are fixed, or if it's just an incompatible shape for me. This bra does seem like it would work for shallow breasts.

The center gore is a little bit too wide; it pokes a little bit on the left (inside), but it's not bothering me much. This is a really nice looking bra, and overall I'm happy with the fit. The band seems somewhat snug on the loosest hook. The cups are a good fit when my posture is good.
