Good:
Soooo pretty. It is also very comfortable. The cups are soft, and they feel very secure. The band is also snugger than other 32s, probably because it is so wide. I can wear it on the loosest hooks.
Bad:
The lace at the top of the cup is not so stretchy, so it digs in just a tiny bit. Not enough that I think I would go up in size, but a little.

This bra is very tight. It stretches for just about 10 cm, and because it's a longline, it feels even tighter. If you're planning to buy it, I recommend going up one band size or maybe even two.
The cups are standard sized, too big for me, so I'm not keeping this bra. I think in this particular model size 34A would fit me best, if only Freya produced it.
Design is beautiful, though.

Gorgeous vintage looking longline from Freya. Unfortunately way too small for me in the cups, nor does it suit my shape (which won't keep me from trying other Freya longlines... Freya please make them in 28GG).
This particular Freya runs a bit tight in the band. Which is why I could fit this 32 in the first place. I am in between a 28 and 30 normally.

Sigh. After trying on the Ivy Longline and falling in love with the style, I picked up the Piper Longline in one cupsize bigger, thinking it would solve the quad boob issues I had with my Ivy. Sadly, this was not the case. The Ivy fabric was slightly different and allowed for my fuller breasts to shape the cups a little more, whereas my fuller breasts in the Piper push the bra down my ribcage and cause all kinds of problems. I don't fill the bottom, the underwire is about a cm below the bottoms of my breasts, *and* I'm getting quad boob. Shame, because this bra looks so lovely otherwise. Definitely a bra for the shallow-breasted.

It is certainly hard to close the one million hooks, but it looks so pretty! It covers a little less than my other bras; sometimes I think the boobs are escaping a little. It also pokes a little under my arms by the end of the day, but if I scoop again, it helps. The material is quite good and the print is gorgeous.

Thought I would be able to fit into a sister size, but it doesn't quite work.

I think this style is just not for me; I have tried a 30G (too big) and now the 30FF (too small). I think without the longline, the cups would fit or be just the slightest bit too small, but I am constantly pulling the band down after it rolls up, and this causes the cups to sit too low on my breasts, and they quadboob on top. I can wear Freya's regular half cups, and they are some of my favorite bras, but I just can't to the longline. It's a damn shame, too, because I love the look, and how smooth my back looks under fitted clothes.

Lovely bra, great rounded upfront shape from the cups - no east-west boobs happening here. Unfortunately they included only 2 columns of hooks, and the band is a firm 29" which makes the bra tend to be a bit too low on me since it's too tight. Would be perfect with another column of hooks. Beautiful print and detailing, love the teeny black and white bows. Feels very well made.

This bra is beautiful, but, it just doesn't fit me anymore. I wore it a few times but the cups are just too big and I can't fill them. The are nice and soft and will conform to your shape which is awesome but, I still can't fill them, I'm a 30F now not FF. This is very depressing because the bra is very comfortable and provides gorgeous cleavage.

First impression. Will update.
I'm still in shock about this bra and I have no clue on what to make out of it.
The cups measure 33 cm stretched over the knee. The wires are 18cm wide. The center gore is pushed outwards.
There's some slight gaping on top not visible under clothing. However as I scope and swoop the bra fills out more and more.
The band curls up under my boobs in the front which makes the bra become super tight on bottom. It doesn't seem to prevent breathing though. It's not very stable but the wires doesn't distort that easily. Only if I start to scope my madness out of it. Then I have to push them back in shape.
I don't know whether to consider this a purple shape or a green shape. I don't know whether I am to call it wide or narrow wires. I have no clue what so ever. I'm just completely confused.
I will now stack up on all longlines there is.
