This bra gives great uplift and is really comfy after repeated wearing. But the wings are just too short for me. I'm wide and tall-rooted, I think, and I have a noticeable bulge of sideboob in this bra. I'm going to have to pay close attention to the recorded height of wings in future.

This bra is not owned any more

I put this bra on, and angels started singing. After trying dozens of bras in and around my new size, this was the one.

I am relatively shallow for my size and have no fullness on top whatsoever, and I had been encouraged to try a Freya half cup style. It flatters my shape and is one of few bras on which I can fill the tops of the cups. It's so comfortable that I was able to wear it all day almost immediately.

There's a little bit that folds over the ends of the wires under the arms, which helps prevent stabbiness. It ... comes up to a perfect height under my arms; it contains what it needs to without cutting in where it shouldn't. The shape is flattering and looks good under clothes. The vertical seams haven't shown through any clothes I've worn with it. The gore is a good height and doesn't stab at me.

Once I get used to wearing bras in my actual size (thanks for nothing, VS), I will probably go down a band to a 30G, but I need to get used to my band carrying my boobweight first. I've been wearing this bra on the second hook from the beginning; it's true what they say about Freya bands, they're stretchy.

The fabric is opaque on the front, and feels almost more like swimwear than a bra. (Not uncomfortably so, if you're used to padded/lined bras as I am.) This bra fits me well enough that the difference in my breasts' sizes is obvious; to fix this, I slip in a liner pad thingy from an old Genie Bra on my smaller side, and then I'm good to go. It's totally invisible under the bra.

The pattern is fun. I have the denim color, which has a few different shades of blue mixed in with a bit of salmon. The straps are wide and comfortable, and striped with the darker blue color from the pattern.

This fits so great that I've purchased a Freya Ginny Padded Half Cup (1263) , which has the same cut, as well. I'll likely get a Freya Lauren Padded Half-cup (4821) too, in order to rotate them through the week. If you're a larger cup size but shallow, this bra is amazing.

I bought this on sale last week, mostly because I needed another bra that actually fit. The pattern is really cute, I love the green with purple, very spring/summer-y. The size fits well, and is similar to the Freya Deco (4234) . I haven't had any problems with this bra poking, although the top of the cups, where the fabric changes, seems to be cut a bit more generously than the deco, although this isn't a problem unless I slouch. The only thing I dislike about this bra is the covering that is sewn over the straps, which does make it cuter, but has bunched up at least once when I was adjusting the straps.

I think this would look good on most ladies with wide, full on bottom, boobs.
