This is a beautiful bra and the first time an unlined one almost fit me! I think the cupsize is a bit small (quadboob at the top on the bigger side and breast tissue at the side). The band is also quite stretchy, I can already do it on the last hooks. Planning to try a band size down and a cup size up. At the moment the underwire digs in at the side but I'm hoping that's due to the incorrect cup size.

For reference I am quite shallow with tall roots, so this open cup is a good fit.

I really love the fit of the vertical seam bras from Freya. They are very comfortable and give a nice shape.

Beautiful bra, the colour is so vibrant. For is similar to the Freya half cup bras.

I actually really like this bra and wish I had been able to find it closer to my own size. I was onlly able to find 30 bands when I shopped for this bra- it 30E or DD. Without an extender, I spilled out of the both; with an extender, the DD was a much better fit. As with most of my bras, the gore is uncomfortable by the end of the day. It gives a nice silhouette and is super cool- as in temperature- to wear. It is a nice addition to my summer bra options.

This bra suits my need for a good deal of immediate projection. The wire width works pretty well for me, the band is firm and comfortable. It doesn't cut into my Full On Top to Even shape. The cups feel good, like I fit into the bra rather than the bra forcing me into it.

On the less great side, it doesn't help round out my pointy nature as much as I would like it too, and I find the gore uncomfortably high. I've had to bend it out and keep having to do so to keep it that way. Although the top of the gore is quite narrow at least.

I tried this on at the store. I knew it would have some issues being a sister size but I wanted to try it to see if I could pick it up in my true size or alter it to fit.
I tried it in black and I love the look of it. The wires are fairly narrow and the cups are shallow. It's a shape miss match for me, but I love the look of it. A sexy bra, esp. in the black.

I am usually a 28e who often gets 30dd because...scarcity. The band was expectedly loose, but the cups were surprisingly small and shallow. The gore was very nice and narrow https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> I'd love to try this in a 28f

Pretty, but not for me. Sheer cups make my soft tissue wrinkle. This must happen in all bras, but sheer cups allow for full visibility of it, and this was a good example of that.
The bra itself fit better than expected on my short-rooted, wide-set, soft, deflated breasts. I have heard so much about Freya bands being stretchy, but this was pretty firm and felt true to size (30D). The height of the cups worked for me, although the sides under my arms were not really high enough. I don't think the scalloped lace edges of the cups are meant to sit flush against the skin. Aside from the seams making creases in my boobs (as all seams do), the cups otherwise gave an uplifted, rounded look.
Only tried this on, did not buy.

Well, this mostly fit. However, the wires on this thing are quite uncomfortable, which is a puzzle, since they're not at all pokey in the 28D despite being basically the same.

The cup width of this is practically identical to the 28D. Which means that in 28DD, the bra is not very wide but still decently shallow. The wire really cut into my sides, and the gore pressed against my sternum. It was uncomfortable on both ends.

The cups were a tad too deep due to the width of the cup. I think bending the wires out would solve my fit problems. The cups were delightfully open on top, ... so no cutting in there.

The band is... large. Long. It was easy to hook on the tightest hook, so they're the typical infamous Freya stretchy band. Not very good for my 27" underbust.

The straps are fully adjustable and quite comfortable. I didn't find them too wide for me.

I'm not fond of the color or the price of this bra, so I'm returning it. However, the fit is good enough for me to keep an eye out for sales and new colors. It's quite good to have a viable unlined option for shallow, FOT breasts in my size range.

This bra was unfortunately too small for my larger left breast, I had quadboob even before swoop and scoop. It fit my right breast almost perfectly, though, which has led me to realize that I actually do have a cup size difference between them. It was really pretty, but I felt the pattern didn't really suit me; I thought the more classic look of Fantasie Allegra suited me better. Also, the design would almost certainly show through a thin shirt. The peppermint color is more blue than green in person, but I liked it better that way. It was more like a very soft, light turquoise.
