    28F

    Didn't fit

    I think this fits! I know that Freya bras tend to run large in the band. The 30 longlines I had stretched out pretty quickly and since there are only two rows of hooks, I didn't want to have to sew it so I could continue to wear it. The 28 is a tad tight, but the band is stretchy, so I don't mind.

    I have shallow boobs and this bra gives me cake on a plate look. I can hardly believe they're my boobs! I'd like the wires to be a bit wider, so I might bend them, but other than that it's great. The straps don't dig into my armpits either, another added plus. The straps are a little scratchy, but I'll put up with them.

    I have the orange with white dots. I wish I could get another color, but that's ok. No one will see it under my clothes.

    • I love the Freya long line bras. They are so pretty and I think they fit better. Freya's soft cup bras never fit me. I like the Deco but it puts marks on my inner boob tissue. I love my 28F Just flew in Freya long line. I wish I had it in a 28E though, just to see if it would be too small. Sometimes I feel like I need 2 sizes in one bra.

      Deco never worked for me. I've got a Piper longline coming in the mail in 28F. Can't come soon enough. Is the JFI too big? Are you selling it?

    • It fits. Sometimes it gapes a little bit on top. Do you ever feel like you're in between sizes? I feel that way a lot. Like the 28F JFI is a tiny bit big but the 28E probably would be just a tiny bit small. I sometimes feel like I'm in-between a 28F-28FF in Cleo Juna. In be-tween a 28E-28F in other bras. Lana in-between a 28DD-28E. Or some 30DD-30E. 32D-32Dd. LOL I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. It would be really nice to have 3 or 4 sizes in the same bra. It's weird wearing different sizes in different bras. It makes our quest to find the perfect bra even more difficult! LOL another one of my rants! LOL

    • Yeah! All the time. My boobs are uneven. So if one side fits the other doesn't. Wish one cup could be E and the other F.

    • uniteacher always fit your bigger breast. I always try to fit my bigger girl. I just sometimes feel like I need two different sizes for one bra even when fitting my bigger boob.
      Which polish calculator put you as a 32E?

    • 1

      Yes. I always get bras that fit my bigger side. http://brasizecalculator.eu This is the bra. It put me in. 32E when I was pregnant. I need to update my profile.

    • Thank you uniteacher ! :)

      sizemapp.com says I'm a 28F. But a week ago when my laying down measurement was 31.5", sizemapp sized me at 26E/28DD. Ewa Michalak's calculator sized me 30DD/30D. reddit/r/abrathatfits sized me at 28F/FF

    • 1

      It says 28F if I put my over bust at 34"
      It says 28E if I put my over bust at 33.5".

    • EM puts me at 70A. Sizemapp puts me at a 28F. Blah.

    • And THIS is why I can't find a bra that fits.

    • uniteacher GO ON ZULILY.com!! They have Masquerade and Cleo bras for really cheap right now! You'll never find stuff this cheap ever!!!

    • But they don't do returns do they? Do they ship to Korea?

    • I don't know. I think they are in the U.S.
      15 dollars for a Cleo bra and 30 for masquerade.
      If they do ship to Korea it would be worth your while to look. I have never seen such low prices for those bras. If women on bratabase sold new bras for that price they would be selling like hotcakes!!!

    • $18.99 for some of the Cleo bras. 8 dollars for wire free Atlantis bras!!! 8 dollars for padded push up Atlantis bras?!!! I looked on bratabase and they were trying to sell those for a lot more than $7.99!

      Not going to happen :(

      Can zulily ship internationally?

      At this time, zulily can send purchases only to street addresses in the United States, including Alaska and Hawaii. However, packages containing liquids cannot be sent to Alaska or Hawaii. zulily does not ship to PO Boxes or APO/FPO addresses, or to U.S. territories such as Puerto Rico or Guam.

      The good news is that I have a handful of bras coming in the mail. I'm a minimalist, so 5 should be enough. Just hope they fit!

    • uniteacher I didn't know that.

    • uniteacher Your altering looks good. :)

      And it fits a lot better!

    • what's the best way to make a 34 band into a 28 band?

    • You could take in the gore and band and then move the straps in.

    • This band is like 32 or a 30. The cups are right next to each other so I'm not doing the gore on this one. I should of folded it and sewn it like that, instead I ripped the seams out of the hook and eye pieces and cut a little off the band. Now I'm hemming the part I cut trying to make the band A shaped instead V shaped. And then I was going to sew the hook and eye pieces back on. LOL. This is my first attempt doing it this way. 2nd attempt at altering a band. LOL Frankenbra!!! LOL

    • I used to alter all my bras but gave up. Now I just try to find a few that fit well.

    • I've also sewn along the bottom of the elastic so it stretches less to make the band smaller.

    • So I could sew on the top of the elastic band to make the top stretch less or make it smaller?
      Good idea. The reason I want to do this is because most bras in my size, the straps are too wide set, and the gores are too wide. I think altering a band is easier than doing the straps. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. It's just sad when nothing fits except for an altered VS model bra! Makes me want to buy sister sizes and just alter the band. :) :/

    • Give it a shot. You can always take the stitches out.

    • Why did you give up on altering bras?

    • I found some brands that work for me. I figure they know more about it than I do.

    This bra is incredibly cute. I'd like for the band to be longer or for some boning because it tends to roll up. I love the way it makes my boobs look. The fabric of the straps is a little itchy, which is weird because the rest of the bra isn't.

    28FF

    Didn't fit

    This bra is wicked adorable. It manages to be both cute and sexy, a rare feat. It doesn't quite suit me, unfortunately. Hearing that Freya's padded half-cups ran small, I originally ordered the 28G - Freya » Patsy Padded Longline Bra (1222). Unfortunately, the gapping in the cup was too much for me to handle--it was the sort where if you stand up really straight and stick your chest out, the cup is filled, but at any other moment there's empty space. I'd rather have a bit of quadboob, personally, so I exchanged for the 28FF. As you can see, the cups are a bit ... shallow for me--there is empty space at the bottom of the cup yet the barest hint of a quadboob (especially, for some reason, on my right--smaller--side?).

    Apart from my personal fit issues, I think the cups are true to size for Freya. The band I find actually fairly loose (though, perhaps, your typical too-big Freya 28); it doesn't make full contact with my stomach/back at the bottom centre, as if it's not tapered to fit my ribcage. The straps are stretchy and comfy. My biggest complaints are that 1) the lace pokes up and shows through clothing very easily (though this might be helped if I weren't a little too big for the cups...!); and 2) the perennial Freya longline problem: the band rides or flips up over the course of a few hours. This one definitely requires repeated adjustment.

    Overall, I'm happy with the purchase: even if it's not perfect, this bra is fashionable, cute, and fairly comfortable.

    The longline band may curl up a bit in front if you have a full upper tummy as I do, but it is absolutely worth it for the overall increase in comfort (dramatic) and general smoothing effect on back and sides. Strap placement is okay but I wouldn't want them to be a quarter inch further out -- for me, this is the limit. Padding is minimal, thankfully; I don't think it adds more bulk than a foam cup would.

    This is another bra that fits radically differently when I swoop and scoop. Without doing so it felt unsupportive in the cups, and looked both too big in ... the cup and very wide in the underwire. Once I shifted things around, a few things happened. 1: The gore no longer sits flush against my chest; I can't tell if this is because the cup is a bit small or because my boobs are just more closely set than the bra design. 2: A small but visible amount of quad boob. It's confusing that this does not smooth out a bit of wrinkling at the top of the cup on my smaller side. Maybe a manufacturing flaw? 3: The underwires I thought were comically wide seem to be... NOT cutting into me in a way I thought was just a function of being squishy. Also, I have less armpit muffin than I have in any bra I've worn for a very long time. 4: I didn't realize that my bras were uncomfortably compressing tissue overall until I put on this one. Which feels much less restrictive, quad boob notwithstanding. Not quite there, but a step in the right direction. Now if only it looked better.

    Note that I bought this bra secondhand, so I am not sure if there were any fabric changes as a result of washing.

    What's wrong here -- too large, too small, wrong shape?

  6. Somehow even though the wires measure like they are narrow, they end up being too wide when the bra is on. The band fits comfortably on the loosest setting, but it only has 2 settings.

    i got this bra through bratabase and decided it doesn't fit the way i would want to. I've been wearing 32dd's for a while and i think this might've been an overshot possibly… maybe i just need a smaller band though!

    I can't say enough positive things about freya long lines. They offer such comfort and great support. I feel like the girls are fully locked and loaded in these. But the cut is still low enough to wear with dresses and v necks. I love love love these freya. Just make the wires a little narrower and move the straps in. You've got a near perfect bra.

    I bought this bra because it was very cute. It fits well in the cups and gives good lift; my only complaint there is that it's a little too projected for me toward the center gore. There's a bit of wrinkling as well, but not an issue. The straps, however, have a seam running down the inside. I might just be sensitive, but for me it's very itchy and almost painful, making the bra unwearable.
