Same story as the 32E I tried - slight in-cup quadding from the seam running across the breast from the gore to the strap. Visible through stretch top. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Band is tight, true to CK sizing, so is probably a good option for people with 28" underbust.

I am center full, relatively even when supported. Soft tissue. Average to wide roots - tissue goes towards underarm a bit.

Me: 30F/32E. Center full, close set, relatively even when supported but leaning towards FOB, tall-ish roots. Not particularly narrow - average to wide roots. Soft tissue. Shoulders are on the slightly narrow side so some balconettes have straps that are too wide for me.

This bra was fine when it came to wire width but I gotta move away from balconettes I think. They just consistently have a high uncomfortable gore. This one was relatively narrow with the wire channels side by side at the top, but for some reason it was crooked. Like at the top of the gore, one side was higher than the other. I think it was sitting more against my smaller breast, like it was being forced over that way by my tissue.

Also, I saw wrinkling at the seam between the lace and fabric, which is annoying. The overall shape was good, though - more rounded than conical.

My underbust is 28-30" (depending on tightness of the tape) and the 32 band was a bit too roomy for me. I measured it as starting at 26" and off of my body I can stretch it to ~30" but it seems like it's actually stretchier than that. My bust measures about 35" standing and 36" leaning over.

I don't usually have an issue with straps adjusting long/short enough but this model has really long straps! So this could work for you if you trouble with straps not adjusting long enough.

Inside the padded plunge is a cup with one vertical seam and one horizontal seam. The cup is kind ... of shallow but was still comfortable. It cut in on my bigger side, but the lace and general shape of the cup somehow managed to "hide" the cutting in. I'm debating trying it in a 30F/FF since I had to fully tighten the straps. Wires are pretty stiff - they don't bend with light pressure and would hold their shape if you bent them into a curve.

I love the deep spruce blue-green color. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

Gore on tissue, significantly digging in despite being pretty low. Otherwise a good fit - good shape, wires seem to be wide enough and mostly stay put. I like the round shape and the wire channels have a nice soft fabric on top, plus there's a lining inside the cup that's comfortable. Probably a nice option for people who are used to molded cups. I tightened the straps slightly and the edge of the cup didn't stick up at all! Ugh. Stupid gore.

I have been looking for ABTF and haven't found it yet so take this with a grain of salt since I don't yet know what a bra that fits really feels like! I'm writing this mostly for myself so I'll remember what I thought about this bra.

I am FOB with even/somewhat full on top, soft tissue, projected, roots on the narrower side. I think I have more sensory sensitivity than the average person and my most crucial fit issue is wire comfort - I think stiff, wide wires are a no-go for me, and I need bras with immediate projection to avoid pressure on the wires.

I will ... be returning the Cleo Mimi after a few brief try-ons and sitting with it on for a few minutes, but it's my first brush with that elusive bra that fits. It stays in the IMF quite well and I didn't feel immediate discomfort from the underwires. I like the low gore since it's one less potential pressure point for the wires. This is one of the first bras I've tried on with narrower wires and I think that definitely improved my comfort level overall, but there are still some pressure points along the outer edges of the wires. But the main reason I'm returning it is because the cup rims don't sit flush with my skin - they sit up a bit, and are visible under my shirts. Maybe it would work better for firmer tissue or someone slightly more FOT, I'm not sure.

I'll definitely be trying more bras from this brand!

So this is a bralette with no band clasp. That, combined with the complicated back straps, makes it a pain in the ass to pull over one's head and into place. I should have sized up - I'm a 30F/FF (underbust is 28-30", bust is 35" ish standing, 36" leaning) with tall, average-to-wide roots and soft tissue. I think the cup shape was too shallow and it did... weird things to my breasts. Like it kind of smooshed them down into a low egg shape, I think due to lack of room in the upper part of the cup and the straps being too tight. I have no idea how to adjust the straps and I don't want to try to wriggle it back on to test it (I was worried I wouldn't be able to get out of the darn thing).

I think this bralette would work best if your breasts are relatively self-supporting and/or not very projected.

I ordered from Breakout Bras so the sewn-in size tag says 28G. I think this is a 60H in Comexim's sizing based on the cup depth measurements, but if I'm wrong please let me know and I will gladly correct it.

My underbust is about 29. I typically wear 30F/FF. Soft tissue, projected, close-set, too much outer fullness for Cleo Marcie and others. A constant issue is rib pain and underwires slipping down.

This bra is definitely at least a cup size too small. I thought I was sizing up enough based on advice from a customer service rep, but that is definitely not the case! I can tell you that this feels like a solid 28 band but that's about all I can weigh in on, LOL.

Band on the 32E was loose, 30F fits well (I don't have a lot of "squish" so usually I go for 32E). Projected/pretty even, tall but "vertically shallow" roots that are wide-ish/not narrow, somewhat soft tissue. I'm center full when supported and it's hard to find a gore that works - needs to be pretty narrow and not too tall or it digs into my sternum. I think this isn't quite as round/centered of a shape as Cleo Marcie (which I need to reevaluate for fit, yo), but still pretty good lift and rounding. The crochet overlay acts as a side sling, I think, so that keeps things a little more centered than they might be otherwise.

Padded underwire and soft band. Can't give any more fit info because it isn't a good size for me!

Me: 30F/32E. Center full, close set, relatively even when supported, tall-ish roots. Not particularly narrow - average to wide roots. Soft tissue. Shoulders are on the slightly narrow side so some balconettes have straps that are too wide for me.

Keyhole back one with only one hook didn't feel less supportive so that's cool. Band is very stretchy/loose out of the box so I tried wearing it on the tightest hook. Discomfort around gore/wires - I think they’re rubbing on tissue because they’re sitting on it, a common problem for me. Also the upper section of the cup cut into my tissue (tall roots thing). The depth of the cup/overall shape was good - depth where needed at the bottom and apex.

The wire channels have a nice amount of padding. I wish this one had worked!
