FreyaWomen's Deco UW Molded Plunge Bra

Looks great when worn with the right shirts
This bra serves a very specific purpose and won't look great with everything. It works well with lower cut tops that are intended to accentuate your bust. It won't look good under fitted t shirts with a higher collar, you will likely see it "lipping" slightly at the top of the cup since the cups are a thick moulded foam. I bought it to wear under a lower cut 50s style shirt and it works great with that style. The bra lifts and seperates your bust from the front and gives it a "cakes on a plate" appearance from the side. Those saying the cups flare out on the sides, this is true but for me it doesn't flare out that much. I have a heavy on bottom bust and ordered size 32G for reference.

My all time favorite T-shirt bra
I found out I had been wearing the wrong size bra for years, after using the size calculator on r/ABraThatFits it was legit life changing! Years of back pain and poor posture was amazingly eliminated when I realized the 34 DD/DDDs I was wearing had no actual support. My bras were basically boob hats, they just covered my boobs instead of lifting and supporting them like a bra is supposed to. Shame on you, Victoria’s Secret and Aerie for your terrible, inaccurate +4 fitting methods and pathetically narrow size range! I can’t believe I wasted so much money and spent so long in pain because of awful stores like that, but now I’ll never shop at either one ever again!Turns out my actual size is 32GG and I couldn’t believe how much better my clothes looked and fit, it was a major improvement in confidence too. Finding small band, large cup bras is not easy but this one is by far my favorite T-shirt style out of what I’ve tried so far. The price is good and as long as you take care of it and make sure you’re wearing the right size you shouldn’t have too many problems. Underwires often pop out of bras when you’re wearing one that’s too small in the cup, so if this happens to you try measuring yourself again.The bra is the most comfortable one I’ve ever worn, it looks great under clothes, and feels supportive despite only having a two hook band. I do wish there were three hooks but it works out well enough in my size. The materials are soft and silky after being washed to remove the starches in the fabric, make sure you only ever hand wash your bras with a gentle no-rinse lingerie detergent like Eucalan or Soak if you want them to last. The straps are wide, comfortable, and don’t slip down or loosen up during wear easily due to the texture on the elastic. The underwire channels have some cushioning on them so they don’t dig into my ribs like other bras do. The molded foam cups are of a medium thickness that give just the right amount of modesty and shaping, they’re a bit stiff at first but soften up a lot after washing and start to mold to your shape after a few wears.The band does run a bit large and stretches out quickly once you break it in on some sizes. My size has fluctuated a lot over time but I seem to remain proportional bust wise so I have several of these in a range of GGs. I’ve noticed that the 30 and 32 bands run a bit big but my 28 and 34 were both more true to size. Freya is known for having stretchier bands compared to some brands that run smaller so you may need a band one size down and cup one size up. I’m so thankful I found my true size and that Amazon carries so many great styles from UK brands with small bands and larger cup sizes, it’s practically impossible for me to find my size in US stores where most brands sadly don’t have anything below a 32 band or above a DD cup. I only wish that Freya would expand the size range to H+ since I’m at the very end of the size range available, if I have any major fluctuations beyond GG I will end up sized out of my favorite style. I truly can’t recommend r/ABraThatFits enough, and as long as Amazon keeps carrying the Freya Deco UW plunge I’ll always keep at least two in my rotation of bras I wear regularly.

Wasn't meant to be
Yeah the bra fit really well and was supportive, but the edge of one of the cups flared out and was very noticeable under thin shirts. What an eyesore. I researched and I guess this has to do with breast shape so it might not happen to you. I exchanged for the next size down, wondering if that was the problem, even though this cup issue was happening on my larger side. That did not solve the problem. I guess this bra just isn't for me. Also, I found the straps to be stiff, scratchy and not very stretchy, but I still would have kept it if it not were for the cup issue.

High hopes, but disappointed.
As a young women who has always been "blessed" I can say it's more of a curse than an actual blessing. This bra was great! But only for about 2 1/2 months, which is about as long as I've had it, until I came home tonight and noticed that my underwire has poked through the center piece. This bra fit my correctly, 34G, and I took care of it like it's recommended. I even alternate my bras frequently, which is hard for a 20 year old college kid, but I do it. A good bra is hard to find when you have a large bust, and I am no stranger to spending a nice chunk of my savings on one, after all, I am stuck with these bad boys for a lifetime, but to pay $60.00 on a bra, and have the underwire poke out after not even three months? Sad and frustrating.On the plus side: this bra gives GREAT cleavage. Like damn girl, you got a push up bra on? The fit of it is perfect. The color is great for skin tone! I just wish it was a better quality product like the rest of their line. I own several of their bras and with regular rotation and proper care I can make last just about a year if not slightly longer.

Only for women with a specific shape
I had so many women on the interwebs telling me to try the Freya Deco that I thought it was going to be the most glorious bra I'd ever tried on, but it was a total buzzkill. Freya, in my experience, is for women with full on top breasts. As a full on bottom, soft tissued lady the plunge was a disaster. I was bouncing around in the cups, falling out, getting that sitting on a shelf look. The cups weren't containing me completely; there were parts of the cup I didn't even fill, while parts of me drastically needed a cup to contain it. The plunge shape--the smaller angled cups, the short gore--is just not compatible with my shape at all. I'm a 32GG, for reference, with soft mom tissue, and am more shallow on top. However, I could tell the bra was really well made. I would recommend it to anyone that would fit the damned thing.

Sexy but not the most comfortable.
Supportive and sexy, great for all clothing. My only complaints would be that the straps start to fray threads eventually (can just be cut off without seeming to damage the bra), and the band can dig in somewhat. I definitely get to a point where I feel like I’ve been wearing it for too long sometimes because of the band digging into my sides (i am definitely wearing the correct sizing). I have very comfortable high waist shapewear from primark that sits underneath the band and makes it more comfortable. Maybe not an all day comfort bra for work but gives great sexy shape for a night out and perfect for low cut styles.

MAGIC!!
This bra is simply magical. The fit is absolutely perfect and it is incredibly comfortable and soft. It gives great support and lifts your boobs (seriously it makes your cleavage look amazing).The adjustment clips on the straps stay nicely in place and do not slip down when a lot of pressure is placed on the straps. As a large chested person it is often difficult to find nice yet affordable bras, but this bra definitely ticks all the boxes whilst still being reasonably priced.I've been wearing this bra almost daily for several months now and it does not yet show any signs of wear.The seam free design does not show through your clothes, so it is an ideal bra to wear under a t-shirt or any other sheer clothing.[...]

Brilliant! My favourite bra by far:)
I would give this 10 stars if I could! My favourite, favourite bra by far. I am a 36f but need to have a small bit at the front, otherwise wires tend to push on my ribs cage. I have drawers full of bras that were comfortable on day 1 and then started to dig in at the front or rub under my arms, leave red marks. This does neither and it gives a good shape, which for me is a decent cleavage but not one where you're resting your chin on the girls. I wear this with everything!

Excellent bra. I bought this to replace my old bra (same make, size etc!). If you are unfamiliar with the bra sizes for Freya, go to your nearest Brravissimo shope and get measured properly. You may feel under obligation to buy a bra from them but afterwards you can go on-line and see if you can buy it cheaper elsewhere.

Perfect
Abit late writing this review but I've worn this bra for a few months now and it's perfect. Sizing for cup and waistband was perfect. I wear it almost everyday, suits going out or just doing to work.
