About me: dense, center full and close set, full on bottom with tall, sloping vertical roots and narrow horizontal width.
How cute is this fabric?! Another take a finding a padded Comexim 3HC dupe, but, again, the material being less structured combined with the structure of the bra being open on top makes me feel like it's not a very secure fit. The cups are also too wide for me.

I was hoping this would be a dupe for a padded Comexim 3HC, but the fabric feels much thinner/less structured, so, despite the fact that the cup cuts in on my larger side, I don't feel like I'm very secure. The cup feels too open on top in a weird way (and usually that's helpful because of my tall roots). The fabric feels nice and the band is comfortable, but the cups are too separate and wide for me. I'm not a fan of the colors, but I'm kind of boring that way.

This bra doesn’t have much projection at the wire, and felt too tight because it was being pushed away from my body. I imagine this might be a very comfortable bra for someone with a different shape.

Bra is in great shape, but the cups are too big for me

Fairly bright, cute colour. Straps were surprisingly long: had to hike them halfway up my back. The cups fit flat across the top and have a cute shape, but still a little room at the bottom and sides. The band was so big I'm already on the tightest hook. When it stretches I'll have to take it in. I could probably do that now, even.
ETA: trying it on again there way more extra fabric than I remember.

Band on the 32E was loose, 30F fits well (I don't have a lot of "squish" so usually I go for 32E). Projected/pretty even, tall but "vertically shallow" roots that are wide-ish/not narrow, somewhat soft tissue. I'm center full when supported and it's hard to find a gore that works - needs to be pretty narrow and not too tall or it digs into my sternum. I think this isn't quite as round/centered of a shape as Cleo Marcie (which I need to reevaluate for fit, yo), but still pretty good lift and rounding. The crochet overlay acts as a side sling, I think, so that keeps things a little more centered than they might be otherwise.

Super bright design! It looks really nice! 3-parts lightly padded cups with vertical seams, rather open on top. It gives very round and uplifted shape, but the seams are very visible under clothes. Very comfortable, fully adjustable wide straps. True to size.
I can't say it really fits. It's rather good for my smaller days, but for the fuller ones it's really too small. The part with hooks and eyes is scratchy for my skin

My shape: close set, center full, full on bottom, average/narrow width roots, tall shallow roots, soft tissue.
Just didn't fit me very well, which is unfortunate, since I really liked the way it looked for an everyday bra. The cups are too separate for me and the gore is too high. The wires are somewhat wide on the sides, resulting in having empty cups. The top cuts in slightly on my breasts and I feel like the bra is also probably somewhat shallow and is pushing everything in.

Beautiful bra, love the way it looks, not the way it fit me. This bra is best for full on bottom breasts. I have full on bottom breasts, but tall shallow roots and soft tissue, so this cuts in at the top. It makes my breasts look pointy and kinda droopy, no lift, which I don't like (I prefer a round shape). I like the low gore and the look of the band in the band.
The band is too flimsy to put in loosest hook, fits better for me in the second loosest hook. I can fill the cups, but on the sides my breast tissue escapes a little bit. Overall, not a good fit for me unfortunately.

I bought this bra or wear postpartum/post weight loss. Unfortunately, although I’ve lost almost all the weight, my breast size has barely changed, and this bra is much too small.
I like the softer aesthetic Freya has been using in their styles recently, a lot more than than their older, obnoxious, leopard print type stuff. If this was a 30G instead of F I’d definitely wear it.

I love the colorway of this bra. The thick straps are perfect. Pretty comfortable.

Gore too high for me and the cups felt too big- didn't mold and felt like I was floating in the cups. Not enough bottom projection. Band too tight. Love the .75 straps, they felt great. High quality bra and felt robust though.

This bra appears on the list of narrow, projected bras in 30F. In my experience, this is not the case. This bra was far too wide and was quite shallow. I am not sure if this bra is an outlier, or if older models featured narrower wires. But, if you are looking for a narrow, projected half cup you may want to order this on Amazon so you can return it.

I think this fits quite well. Much better than most bras I try. Although I think i will try the 28ff next as it could be a bit tighter, although it doesnt´seem as loose as i remember freya bras being.
I bought this thinking it was a new freya nonpadded style/shape but when it arrived I realised it is one of their padded half cup styles. I was really looking for a non padded lace black bra so this isn´t quite what i was after even though the fit is ok.

This bra is on the narrow side for a Freya half cup. It is almost perfect, but still slightly too wide for me. The band is true to size and has only stretched slightly after several wears. The gore fits comfortably and tacks on my chest. The straps are very thick and comfortable, but would not work well with strappy tops. The colourway of this bra is truly spectacular - I adore it.

This bra is almost perfect - ALMOST - except for two minor details, the cup is slightly too wide and the band is a little too stretchy. I liked to so much, that I bought another one in 28FF, that is actually perfect.
The colour of this bra is amazing. It is an almost electric teal that is mellowed out by white irregular polka dots. It is heavenly. The tops of the cups have aquamarine lace trim and the centre of the gore has a white bow. It is somehow both whimsical and sophisticated. The fabric is a lovely light mesh and the inside of the cup ... is a very thin aquamarine foam (3mm ish). It is perfect for providing modesty / shaping but does not add any bulk. This is a great summery bra.
The fit is less wide and shallow than most other Freya half-cups I have tried. I was very pleasantly surprised when I receive it. The wides on the 30F were just slightly too wide for me. However, on the 28FF I later purchased - they were ideal.
The band of this bra is not quite as stretchy as some of the other Freya's that I have tried, but still had just a little too much give for my needs. Again, here the 28 was perfect.
If you have been shying away from Freya half cups because of their width and shallowness, this model might be worth trying out.

I just love the look and design of Freya Padded Half Cups. I cannot stop myself from trying them, and hoping that one will finally work for me (unicorn bra?). Sassy is a classic example of why this style does not work for me. The cups are just too wide, the underwire is far too high and the cups are not all enough. This would be a great option for someone who is less FOT and narrow. What the bra lacks in fit, it makes up for in appearance. I love the nude mesh and white lace overlay, it is a really beautiful alternative to a boring white or nude bra. The detailing and quality are exceptional.

I love the look of this bra. It is gorgeous and creates INCREDIBLE cleavage.
However, it is a total shape mismatch for me.

The cups are slightly too close-set for me -- I'm pretty wide-set, yet still narrow. Working from my armpit inwards, wires follow my IMF well about 5/8 of the way.
The gap starts at 7/5 o'clock. It's definitely too big a cup size for me--there's plenty of space in the upper lace section. The straps are stiff and a bit difficult to adjust.
For what it's worth, it's a very pretty bra. Bad fit for me, but that's my fault. I didn't measure myself properly and ended up with the wrong cup size.

It's a nice, well made bra. It just doesn't fit my shape. It would be a great T-shirt bra, with the smooth, molded cups it wouldn't show any seams. The center gore was too wide for me to deal with and I need a more immediately projected bra to prevent the unfortunate crease from happening. As for the appearance, it's a plain, serviceable bra. It doesn't have the lace or frills to make it sexy on it's own. Though I've found that if the bra fits you well it doesn't really matter if it's sexy you'll feel sexy wearing it. Also, I realize I hooked it on the tightest set to begin with, so there was no way to go tighter as the elastic stretched and lost elasticity.
