This is my favorite Freya style of the 4 that I own. I was surprised that the lace is not scratchy at all, the straps are softer than usual, & the cut of the cup is a bit fuller than the other plunges - kind of between that & a balcony, like a true 3/4 cup.
The wires are short at the sides - which I personally love, as I hate too-long wires that scrape under my arms (I'm looking at you, Panache). The cups are a little more generous than most Freyas & of course the band runs larger. I usually end up wishing I'd bought a ... 36G, as with the 38FF I always start out on the middle hook. But that size wasn't on eBay for a steal. So.
I have it black, which has a lovely periwinkle blue subtle pattern across the bottom cups & little rosettes at the gore. I wore this all day in comfort, as the cups are a lot broader than the balcony style Antoinette I have, & the material is far softer than the embroidered Mischa.
