Best Bra...Need LARGER cup sizes with the small bands-
This has been my gold standard bra for YEARS. You have my 5 stars in terms of the actual bra. For reference. I am 145lbs. 5'6". 28 waist. 30 ribcage (but that limits my bra selection sooo much...so I fudge up to 32). Now that I've had four kids, and I've changed shape/fullness/perkiness, this bra is STILL what I want to be wearing, but it's not REALLY in my size. (In a 32 band, I now have one boob at an H and the other at a GG--since that isn't available in this bra, I buy the 32G and wear it at the loosest hooks and don't pull the straps tight like I want to. The reality is that I think I need a 30HH??I give it 4 stars, because as a company FREYA, you recognize that there are lots of women with the larger cup size, but yet y'all don't offer those cupsizes in the ...

The reality is that I think I need a 30HH??I give it 4 stars, because as a company FREYA, you recognize that there are lots of women with the larger cup size, but yet y'all don't offer those cupsizes in the most basic T-shirt bras that you offer--like this Deco pulunge. And this strange oversight is why I docked the rating. If H and HH weren't elsewhere in your line of bras, then I would understand...but it IS...so for the LOVE...at least make your basic t-shirt bra accessible to your followers. The band on this is so soft and stretchy (as compared with the longline) that I would definitely get more lift by sizing down a bandsize if larger cups were available. I would also settle for a 32H with one larger cup size too. FREYA...you are the ONLY company that knows how to cut in a bra around the arm pits, so that I don't have raw rub marks there...thank you--this bra is no exception, and ladies if you struggle with this, then this Bra will be such a relief. BUT FREYA...if you see this...track me down...I'd pay pretty much any amount of money to have this bra in my correct size instead of settling for a 32 GG. (What I do to compensate means my girls aren't as perky as they could be, and they hang farther out, instead of staying in closer to my boddy and bubbling up--I prefer the perkier look because then I have a longer torso and my smaller waist shows better. (I do what I do in terms of "letting them down," so that I don't have double boob). In your swimsuits, I go ahead and pull the shoulder straps tigher so the cups are at a nice perky height because if the girls bubble up, it looks luscious instead of like a weird double boob. This is also true of the longline bra...which is GORGEOUS...but just imagine if you made that puppy in this neutral T-Shirt fabric. I'd cry...I mean just CRY tears of joy...what a dream. Call me. Seriously, I'd love to design with you :) I have 20plus years of experience with DD+ boobs...hehe...ranging from DDD to HH at various life stages!!... Show more

Deco bra
I had worn bravissimo bra’s for years, then the convenient high st branch i used closed, which meant to buy a bra was a day out at a very very large shopping centre. Tried many bra’s , different makes, different shops, styles and sizes searching for supportive, comfortable, proper fitting feminine bra. Either no shape, no support or popping out. My daughter said order on line and go back to bravissimo, try the Deco… Alleyluyah !! Everything you want from a bra , can be worn with every outfit . Having comfortable supportive uplift gives me a completely different slimmer looking silhouette .Thank you Bravissimo. ( Immediately ordered a second one and shall be gradually replacing all the waste of money mistakes)... Show more

Everything I was looking for
This bra has just enough linning for a smooth appearance without overly increasing bust size. Sides and back are of strong enough fabric to help minimize bulging. Straps are wider than some and with nonslip edging. Overall lift gives silhouette of someone in her early 30s. What more can you ask for?... Show more

Fab bra, bad colour
I love the deco. Give’s amazing shape and very comfy. I’ve bought dozens over the years.However, I have a love hate relationship with this particular colour. It ALWAYS fades badly and looks a dull grey/beige after a few washes. So quickly becomes the ugliest bra in my drawer. I wish Freya could either improve the dye quality or offer a white option, would solve the issue for under light colour tops.... Show more

Love this bra
Very good T shirt bra. Fits well, very comfortable. I wear this all the time now. Gives you a lovely shape too. I would say it is worth the price. I have purchased so many cheaper bras that are not comfortable so you end up throwing them and wasting the money. Think its worth spending a little more for the quality.... Show more

Needs more colour options and didn't sit well
I decided to send this back. It didn't sit flat at the front and pushed my boobs together in an unflattering way as the cups were really close together. It may be that the back or cup size was too small perhaps as I see it doesn't do that on the model, or it just doesn't suit my shape. I get the feeling a bigger one would have been too big but didn't actually try. I have a 30F in the Niya and 30EF in the Zara which fit perfectly if that helps anyone. The shape did look ok under a shirt but I would have been embarrassed for it to be seen in a changing room.The colour was too dark for my skin and looked like an pale orange/light brown bra through my shirt. Decided to go for a white Niya instead so it matches the shirt if not my skin because I can't be bothered ... MoreI decided to send this back.

I wish more manufacturers would do one skin colour lighter than this and two darker as not everyone has olive/light brown skin.... Show more

super comfy and great for plunge dresses
I had a tricky plunge dress and was given this bra to try on, it's so great. The cups are a little padded, which is not my usual go to, but it makes this bra insanely comfortable. I really love it and haven't taken it off (apart for sleep!) since I bought it. I'ts great to have a bra that is good for occasionwear but also extremely comfy so good for everyday wear also! I'm a 30FF in the Envy bra, but a 30G in this one, the 30FF was a tiiiny bit too big.... Show more

The girls are happy
Ahhh what a relief! After a fit appointment, I can’t tell you what a relief this bra has become.I’m officially a 34F but in this bra I’m a 34E with its sizing differences as it comes up a little big.Not the fanciest of bras but the lift and shape this gives me is fantastic, whilst being comfortable. It’s snow smooth under clothes too. I couldn’t resist this bra in comparison to others I tried, it’s just so flattering.Admittedly the band is a little stiffer compared to some of the others I tried on so will likely need wearing in a bit but definitely didn’t warrant a different band size.It’s left me feeling confident, sexy & comfortable. What’s not to love! Thank you bravissimo for your fitting service.... Show more

This is the bra you're looking for
I had this bra in black for 'best' and whenever I wore it people would tell me how well I looked and had I lost weight and so on. I soon realised it was time to invest in a nude as well. This is the first time I've ever bought the same bra twice.It felt like an indulgence at nearly 40 quid but you only get 2 boobs (if you're lucky) in this life and why not treat them with respect. If you like a bit of lift occasionally (I do) this does the trick. Comfortably gets the goods up to my neck; we defy gravity and nature with ease, without any weird lines under tight shirts. I can almost get away with turtleneck tops.The black does come up a bit small so be prepared for trial and error with the sizes. It's worth the effort.... Show more

Unicorn bra for cleavage
This bra is my unicorn bra. I am center full and top full with strong immediate projection from the root of my breasts. I haven't had luck with molded cups previously because the centres or tops of the cups would dig into my breast tissue. I have also never found a bra that enhanced my cleavage until now. This bra is cut in a way that the cups scoop and then don't come back in towards the chest wall meaning my breasts are brought up and together for a beautiful bit of cleavage.The bra feels quite sturdy and well made. The cups don't buckle at all even though I have significant immediate projection and other bras do buckle on me because of this.I'm between sizes at a 28FF/G. In lace bras i prefer to wear 28FFs to fit my smaller breast. In molded and structured bras ... MoreThis bra is my unicorn bra.

In lace bras i prefer to wear 28FFs to fit my smaller breast. In molded and structured bras I do need to fit to my larger breast as there is no stretch lace to accommodate your larger breast if you buy it too small in the cups. I have a deco in each size and if you are also between sizes then know that because it is a molded cup it will likely gape when you hunch because your arms will change its shape. If you are okay with a little gaping when hunched but a seamless fit when holding good posture then go for your larger size. If you prefer a tighter fit with more cleavage then go for your smaller size but br aware that it may cause some quadboob as it is molded and has no give.One of their fitters also shared that the nude and black deco bras tend to flare a little more at the inner cup edges but the colored deco bras have a ribbon edge that keeps the cups a little tighter to the body. I haven't found the flared inner edges to be a problem, if anything they fit my center full breasts better because of it but it may be something to keepe in mind if this causes problems for your own fits....
