Was hoping this bra would work for me but it makes a really weird shape. My breasts are center heavy I guess and it looks like it leaves empty space at the sides (sides are too shallow?) even though the cup width is fine.
Good for shallow breasts but I don't know what happened with this bra. Someone suggested that the seams were off a little.

Too small for me. The wires are on the shorter/narrower size. Can't really comment too much on this bra, I need to go up a cup.

This was so close to fitting. I think if I was closer to a true 28D it might. But currently, I just don't have enough upper fullness to fill it completely.

Even though the fit wasn't perfect, I actually kind of liked this one. The fabric seemed pretty soft, and I didn't feel itchy in it. If the cups were a little bit wider, it probably would've been perfect. The depth was fine, just needed that extra bit of space around the perimeter of the cups to suite my somewhat shallow boobs.

I bought several from the same online seller out of which this was the one I was most disappointed with. It's very pretty, but it looks really odd on me. It makes my boobs look too smooshed together and pointy for the rest of my body making my shoulders look wider than they are. If I don't swoop and scoop, the top of the cups gap a little bit. My boobs are on the shallow side which causes a wrinkle along the seam from the nipple to the straps. There are also some small wrinkles on the outer cups from it pulling up the sides of my boobs and not encasing them more naturally.

I bought this bra cheap from ebay when I was trying to figure out my size.
Very weird fit on me. I've found out it is what's called "orange in a glass" effect. I'm getting quadboob, and the wires are too narrow, but there's empty fabric in the cup on my smaller right breast.
I don't think I would buy this bra in a 28DD because I don't think I'm the right shape for it. I've since learnt that Freya plunges aren't great for shallow wide breasts. The band is also pretty stretchy which is another Freya thing.

I have trouble filling out the top of this bra. I find the bra to be too high. Low cut shirts don't work with this bra. It's a very comfortable bra. I wear it often, but it's not my perfect bra.

If you're considering this bra, you may want to go up one or two cup sizes. It's hard for me to say much about this bra since it was so small, but I think it might have made my boobs a weird shape. Because of that I will not order it in a larger size. The positive is that it is absolutely beautiful and sophisticated looking when I'm not wearing it.

Band - It feels pretty firm.
Cups - Claims to be padded, but doesn't feel like they are padded. They have thin foamy feeling to it, but whatever the material is, it is not rigid enough to hold structures. They are basically soft cups. The cups wrinkle even on the places that are filled. The outer layer is just prone to wrinkle. The cups don't seem to be shallow.
Wires - Too narrow for me. Heights are okay.
Straps - Partially adjustable

Band - Not too firm, not too stretchy for 26" ribcage. Wings are nice and tall.
Cups - They are just too big on me. From what I can see, they are pretty deep and projected. They are not padded, just a single layer of fabric.
Wires - Fit me nicely. They don't come up too high under armpit, and the center gore is just about the right height.
Other - Straps are fully adjustable. The fabric is very soft.

This bra is really comfortable! I initially had problems with the top of the cup wrinkling, but after a small alteration (tucking in the fabric between the lace and the main part of the cup), it fits well. The band feels like a normal 28 and doesn't seem to be too stretchy.

Totally gorgeous, much too small! One of the first bras I ordered when trying to figure out my new size.

I was really disappointed with this bra, I had some fairly high hopes for it.
Everything about it seemed far too big, like I was trying on a 32D not a 28D. The band rode up like crazy. A few minutes into wearing it, the wires were up onto of breast tissue, and the back was several inches above where it should sit.
I found the cups to be way to big too, which I found odd considering I can fit nicely into the Cleo Juna (6461) in a DD, and most other bras in the 28D-30C range. Even on my bigger boob, it was at least a cupsize, if not two, too big. The wires were far too wide, the gore too. It was such a pretty bra though, and seemed to have a nice shape; I feel like if it had been all-round smaller, it would have wonderful.

The cups are too tight, but I love this bra.

Side escape! Cups are way too small.

This bra gave an excellent push-up effect, which I didn't expect to find without all the push-up-padding. I have only very slight gaping at the very top of the cup on my smaller boob (which is nearly a full cup smaller than the larger), so could probably stand to go up a size. The band I found quite tight, and without much stretch at all - it only just does up on the larger hook, which I find odd as I measure just under 25" round my ribcage. As other reviews mention, the top of the cups seems to curl back, I think to to the trimmings.

This is a beautiful, soft, sexy bra. The colors are vivid, and the bra looks and feels very feminine. The material makes it comfortable in hot weather as well. Unfortunately, I bought this before I understood much about sizing. I purchased a 28D, and both the band width and the cups (mostly the cups) are too small. The cups do stretch reasonably, so when I wear this for a couple of hours it's pretty comfortable, however, the underwires in the cups are really much too short. As a result, this bra is too low at the top sides of the cups and too ... low at the armpit, causing underarms rolls that cannot be scooped into the cups. From the side and when my arms are lifted the excess tissue is impossible to miss. If I manage to pack it all into the cups, giving myself "quad-boobs" in the process, it slips out within seconds. I love the cut, shape, style, and feel of this bra, but if you have wide-set, wide-based breasts, the underwires probably won't encompass all the tissue unless you buy a bigger cup than you expect. Rather than push in the tissue and elongate the breasts, they push tissue outside of where the bra ought to be. While I love my Freya bras for the uplift and sleek look they provide, the underwires in my my Ada "plunge" style are nearly 2.5 cm shorter than the underwires in my Just Flew In "longline"; both sizes 28D. The cups in the longline have a couple of minor issues, but they definitely offer more comfort and support than the Ada plunge underwires.

I got this bra because I had read that it was shallow and wide, which is true. However I get huge gaps of empty space in the center, right next to the gore on each side. As well as gaping at the top. So this shape just wasn't for me, unfortunately.

A+. Love this bra. Cups seemed big when I got it, but fit amazingly. I even get a little cleavage! (just a little though) The only downside is that the band is too stretchy and rides up even on the tightest hook. I'll need to get a rixie clip for this bra, but that won't stop me from wearing my new favorite bra...

B. Plunges aren't the right size for me, but this bra feels incredibly comfortable regardless. Had to shift the wires to the outside to make the gore comfortable, but total comfort after that.
