A well-made soft cup bra in must-have wardrobe beige. Invisible under clothes, nice wide & firm straps, just an all-round daily gem of a bra. Supportive without feeling confining, and the side panels really help to bring in side tissue. True to size. At the beginning of my ABTF journey Marvel was recommended and I thought it fit and looked great, plus being incredibly comfortable for hours of wear. After (entirely too many!) different bras and discovering Polish cuts, I have realized that the Marvel is incompatible with my shape: narrow, close & high-set, immediate projection, even 2/5 shading toward FOB. Probably because of the wider gore, Marvel gives me a noticeable east-west shape and does not provide the uplift or centering that I now know I prefer. Funny how we learn our shapes and preferences bit by bit!

I HATE THIS BRA!!
The gore digs into my sterum.
At first I feel only a little uncomfortable.
But a few hours later, I was in pain and felt like throwing up.

This bra is one cup size bigger than the other marvel bras I have, and is therefore just a bit too big perhaps. It is not too big to be unwearable. I will probably alter it eventually.

This was the first bra I purchased in UK sizing - size 32F. I absolutely love the shape this bra gives me - a nice lifted round appearance. I quickly realized that I measured myself incorrectly and this size is a cup size too small. I have a 32FF on the way - I will add a new review on the correct size soon.

Initially this bra was a pretty good fit for my shallow, FOT breasts. It seems sturdy and like it will hold up well with wear, and although not fancy it is nice looking. Though I have heard that Freya bands tend to run large, the band on this model is firm. It gives nice uplift with a rounded appearance and "cakes on a plate" cleavage, though I do sacrifice some projection for the cleavage.
When I first tried the bra on I thought it was perfect, but it quickly became very tight and uncomfortable. This was helped by bending the wires (carefully) to match the shape of my ... ribcage, as well as bending the gore away from my chest slightly. (Measurements were taken pre-bending.) As a plus, the straps are fully adjustable-YAY!
The Marvel comes up a bit high under the arms and cuts in/rubs a bit. I have only had the bra for about a week, so this may improve as it is broken in. This would be less annoying if the fabric were soft, but with the stiffer fabric I would hesitate to wear this bra if I were going to be doing something more active.
EDIT: After owning this bra for over a month now I have noticed that the tightness seems to be coming from the cups being a bit to shallow, and an overall mismatch with my breast shape. Still wearable and in my rotation of bras, just not the most comfortable.

A friend gave me this bra NWT because it was in my typical Freya size, 32F. But all of my other Freya's are either padded or lined and this one isn't, so that is probably why the sizing seems so off. The band feels a bit too bit (can already hook on 3rd clasps) and while I can fill the bottom of the cups okay, I have some gaping at the top of the cups.
I have to say that I DO like that the wires stop a bit lower than normal for a Freya, they don't come anywhere near my armpits and therefore the tops of the cups and the straps don't rub the wrong way or bother me at all.
It's not a very pretty bra, its just kinda meh. Very plain and boring for a Freya. And the material feels weird to me, kind of stiff.
