Freya's Rio Large Cup Size Bras
Update 2/2012: These fine bras are, per Her Room, being discontinued. You will find them, in limited sizes at the stores in the right column here. You can still find plenty, New, With Tags, at excellent Buy it Now, rather than bid, prices if you take this New Freya Rio Bras link to eBay stores!
Freya's Rio, #3510 underwire balcony bras have been a favorite for a while now. I find these bras have excellent ratings going back as far as 2004 at Her Room. Women like the nice, round, up front shape and perky support these full figure bras give large busted women! This distinctive bra style gives reliable support.
These bras have an utterly unique look. A chain link style lace all over the cups and sides, accented by a tiny matte silver buckle at their center gores. This chain link lace is rigid, no doubt making these bras so supportive and helping them give you sure shaping! The lower cups of these bras are lined as well, giving you additional support! These bras have 100% lycra sides for freedom of movement. I do not recall another bra with that as a feature.
Other than all that, these bras have your traditional three section cups with power net wings for anchorage and support, as most large cup bras do. They have wide set elastic shoulder straps that adjust in the back.
I am finding these bras in white, black and beige at stores now. Bravissimo, (Currently at the best US dollar price of $37), has them in sizes 28DD to H and 30 to 38D to H. You can find these bras at Bigger Bras, (2nd best US dollar price, but only with the use of their 10% discount codes nearly always available on their pages), Her Room, Figleaves and Bare Necessities for $54. They do tend to go on sale fairly often. So when I find them on sale, I will post those sales on our plus size fashion blog. They were on sale at Figleaves last week at 20% off. Freya bra sales come up fairly often, if I am recalling correctly.
Only Bravissimo has the matching briefs and thongs that go with these bras. They have both, in black, white and beige in sizes XS to XL. Figleaves has just the thongs, in beige only in the same sizes.
