Freya Women's Fancies Underwired Balcony T-Shirt Bra

This bra is very flattering for larger chests and lets you still have shape and definition. This is the only bra I've had where the center sits against my chest (no underwire lifting off me). Like other reviews, I do believe the straps are pretty wide set. So it does take some getting used to comfort wise, but once I got used to the bra found it to be comfortable for all day wear. However, it is more structured so its not the kind of bra you'd want to be lounging around in.

Fits smaller than the normal Idol. Also not as good quality. Fabric is stiffer, and straps are more narrow...and seem to be wider-set.Also, whenever I order bras on Amazon these days, they come in a plastic mailer....NOT a good combination with large, molded cups. They're almost always sort of ruined due to creasing in the cups. Recently bought one from an online lingerie retailer expecting better, though, and got the exact same result. This is such a duh thing. Like, why?Let me vent further for a moment....WHY do lingerie makers not understand that the straps don't need to be so far apart? Especially if the band is a 34 or smaller, and even moreso on larger cups, because then they're really not supporting anything when they're set so far to the side that all the weight of the breasts is too much in the middle. This is not rocket science. Apply a little common physics sense.

While I love Freya bras and own several, these were for my daughter who is going on a trip and needed new bras. The sizing is now being shipped according to UK sizing. I ordered 30G US and received 30I instead. This is in multiple colors and styles. I asked before I purchased if they were shipped according to US or UK sizing and I was informed it was US sizing so I ordered and now had to return them all. Very disappointing.

Best bra for difficult sizes and well made.

I ordered a 36, and when it came the band was only 28 inches from end to end. Even looked at the tag and it said 36. So I'm not sure what sizing is like where this was made but it's not correct.

The fit is absolutely true to size and I like that it leaves smooth lines when wearing a t shirt. Probably one of the best non padded bras I have found that doesn’t show under t shirts.

Band was mildly smaller than anticipated, but cups were...not deeper, but taller. For someone with a 30-32 (weight and style-dependant) band and generally, especially in Freya, the band ran about as expected, but someone with that sort of frame would have to be pretty long in diameter and full on top to match this shape.Already have a loose hook from poor sewing, and I've worn it once with no stress or activity. Such a shame.

This is my favorite bra thus far. Not easy to find a good bra that is comfortable, gives good support, and looks good with all clothing. This is it. I'm either a 34dd or 32e and in this bra, fhe 32e fit best. Washes well and I hang dry.
