This bra is a nearly perfect fit. The lace top is not stretch lace but instead a semi firm mesh, which I find very nice for shaping. My breasts are very soft and I have a problem with in-cup quading from mixed texture bras (i.e. Jasmine). This bra has more depth in the bottom of the cup than most that I have tried. The seams and embroidery are quite nice and smooth and do not show through clothing. The straps are fully adjustable and do not slip throughout the day.

I think if I repurchase this bra I will sister size down, as the band has quite a bit of stretch from the beginning. I have used the second set of hooks from the beginning, but I don't feel it has stretched much with wear. The wires are firmer than I prefer, and the center gore is a bit tall on me, but overall, this is the best fitting match that I have found for my skin tone.

This bra fit wonderfully when I bought it. It gives a very beautiful and natural (for my bodytype) shape, more teardrop than round. There are certain clothes (think classic blouse) that just drape so much better with a more classic silhouette.

Structurally, the lace it very firm, almost no give at all. The straps are detachable in the front and the back, with two positions available on each side of the back, offering lots of options for placement.

The band on this bra is quite firm, but still within range for a 32. The material for the bra is very unusual, a bit slick to the touch like swim fabric, but not at all shiny. The interior is entirely lined in mesh. The lace lies flat under shirts except for the fringe at the very top of the cup, which sticks up - I may trim this bit off.

The fit is pretty good, but not perfect. I am entirely FOB, I think it would be a best fit for someone that is mostly FOB but with a little bit of upper fullness. The cut may also work for an even shape, I'm not sure.

The design and construction is beautiful. Small bow details have been continued on the back of the bra at the strap attachments there as well as the front. The cream and floral combination is very well matched.

I think this bra is a decent fit overall, but it can get uncomfortable over the course of the day due to the taller wires. I don't think it would be such an issue if I wasn't both so short and short-waisted. In my opinion this bra is much more utility than beauty, but it does its job well. I has a decent amount of depth and gives a very nice up and forward look.

I wore this bra for a special event. The band is firm, wide and the top and bottom of the band are lined with something grippy ( silicone?) to make it stay in place. The bra stayed well and did not require adjusting. I bought the bra knowing the cup was too small because I was in a pinch, but it did ok. The cups seem true to size, but a bit shallow, which I find common in molded strapless bras. The cups are thin but firm. It does have 5/8" detachable straps as well.

This bikini top is perfect. I love everything about it. The band is firm, the gore is high enough to contain my soft breasts, even with motion, the straps are central enough to stay on. The padding is quite soft and flexible. Why doesn't Freya make this cut as a bra ?!?

The cups run a bit small. I ordered a cup size larger than my regular Freya bra size and I'm glad I did. Band size is my usual. I chose to pair this top with a coordinating patterned swim bottom from a different manufacturer. I cannot abide Freya's various 3-4 inch rise choices in bottoms, not even to match a top this nice.

I love this bra. The cups are deep and roomy at the base. The wires are the perfect width and height for me. The band is true and not overly stretchy. The amber colored embroidery on the black base is beautiful. The whole thing comes off as very lovely and sensual, but for me, comfort is key, and this is a 10-12 hour day bra.

The only issue I have is that the straps slip of my shoulders a bit, but honestly, I have yet to find a bra that did not have this issue. I will definitely buy this again in the next color range.

This bra fits me about the same every other unlined Fantasie bra that I have tried. The apex of the bra hits about 3/4 of an inch too far out making a wrinkly pocket at the apex and deep wrinkles at the sides. Definitely east/west on me.

The bra seems well made, but the tall wires, combined with the deeper cups, end up looking oversized and frumpy on my petite frame.

I bought this bra on sale thinking that I could wear it with an extender, and it was a bad idea. It is just so tight. I gave it about 2 hours and then gave up. I think bandless styles might just not really be for me. The wires were very stiff, unnecessarily so for such a small cup size, in my opinion.

The bra itself is beautiful. The cups fit perfectly. Although I generally prefer a more natural shape (good pointy or "green shape") I did appreciate the lovely rounded shape this bra gave. I think this resembles the look you get with moulded cups and would look nice under certain types of clothes.

I like this bra a lot. Good structure and shaping for my very soft breasts. The entire cup is made of the same strength mesh, which helps prevent in-cup quading with my very soft tissue. To me,these Freya mesh bands feel truer to size and stay firmer over time than the "silky" fabric ones and I prefer them.

This butterfly print is cool and the embroidery has a very geometric feel to it. I wear this bra a lot.
