Oh man...either this bra was not meant for my boobs, or this bra was not meant for big boobs. Terrible fit for my boobs, as you can tell. When wearing strapless bras, I have been told to go down a band size, but this bra didn't fit in my normal size and would have looked even more ridiculous in a size smaller. Might work for enhanced boobs though.

I can't get close to fastening this bra, even with a friend helping. It runs very small on the band. The band construction is clever though. The outer layer is one piece and perfectly smooth. The inner layer has no stretch power mesh in the front to the side boning. I can see why they designed it like this--it prevents the cups from deforming while under stretch. Unfortunately, that only leaves about two inches on either end for the entire back. I can't imagine who this would fit on. Just holding it up, the cups seem to fit well and give really good shape, but there's simply no possible way to fasten it.

Absolutely gorgeous longline. Wore once for my wedding 2 years ago for 3-4 hours, and tried on a couple times later. Added elastic strap things to help keep it up, of which I have a photo in the album--could be removed fairly easily. Still looks amazing and is nice and snug. True to size fit.

Plain bra with smooth shiny material, but very pretty lace. Band is not very stretchy. Cups and inner sling are solid and stiff, no give at all. If you need a bra that conforms to your breasts, this ain't it. If you want strong and solid support, this will do it.

Very comfortable fit. Unfortunately, it suffers from the same flaw as other low-back longline strapless bras: no support. The band and cups runs about a size small. However, even with a larger cup, I still don't think the gore would tack because of lack of support since there is no band directly behind the cups. Also, exceptionally wide gore. Wish it had support, it is very comfortable and looks great.

However, even with a larger cup than I normally wear, the gore still doesn't tack because of lack of support since there is no band directly behind the cups (and the gore width is too big for me). Wish it had support, it is very comfortable and looks great.

Bought this bra one clearance without trying it on. It was a great price so I wasn't worried about not being able to return it. Initially, I was not excited about the fit or support because it seems to have a little extra space in the top of the cup, and was difficult to do up for a 34. However, when I tried it on with my wedding dress (a strapless corset) on a whim (after trying it one with several other bra styles), I was excited to find that this bra was by far the best with my dress. (Thank goodness because I was at my wits ... end with trying to find the right bra). There are 2 removable shoulder straps, and the back strap has only 2 hooks, which is less than I expect for this size generally (especially in a strapless). It is, however, designed to be worn with items that have a lower cut back. There is a strap/band that is part of the bra that sits lower on the ribs, presumably for additional support. I am unlikely to wear this bra with anything other than my wedding dress, but it works great for what indeed it for!

I was in desperate need of a strapless ASAP for my cousin's wedding, so I went to a local boutique instead of my normal order from the internet route. The fitter refused my request for any Freyas (for the narrow wires), and insisted that there was no way I was a 28 band. So I ended up with a 32D.

Besides the band being quite large, there is a plastic-y material lining the top and bottom band of the bra that rubbed me raw (I had tender red marks for a week after the wedding!). I think the too-large band exacerbated the rubbing issue, as I've had other strapless bras with the plastic and no problems.

I do like the construction of the cups; there's wire inside the cups to provide additional uplift, which is great!
