Everyone on ABraThatFits gushes about the Cleo bras like they're made by God himself. They supposedly give you that coveted rounded shape, and beautifully lift. The Cleo Lucy/Lilly/Minnie/Moonie is supposed to be the answer to all problems of the boob! The light at the end of the poorly fitting just-discovered-my-new-size tunnel.
At least that's how it felt for me reading ... all of the glowing reviews and recommendations. Having a Cleo (hell, any unlined) seems to be some kind of ticket into the seasoned bravangelist club.
I need to finally get this off my chest.
I hate unlined, especially Cleo. I've never encountered a brand that is so consistently terrible for me. It seems like every Cleo I put on my body tries to slowly cut me, break through my skin and stab me through the ribs. Sizing up makes no difference. Adjusting makes no difference. Getting a different style make no difference. it's all just bad.
On top of the unbearable discomfort, I can't stand the way they make my breasts look. Somehow by the dark magic that is the unlined bra, my 34FF's lose 3 cup sizes and their perkiness. They just... deflate. I feel horrible about how they look under clothes. In fact, I never even got the chance to review my cleo lily because the minute I tried it on I turned right back around and returned it. I was honestly embarrassed to look in the mirror. I felt so frumpy and terrible about myself. This can basically be extended to all unlined bras.
Sorry for this rant, and no offense is meant obviously. I guess I just want to know if im not the only one who has the unpopular opinion? Is it because I've been brainwashed into liking my boobs in molded cups? It's just mindboggling to me how a bra that is so ubiquitous is so bad when it's on me. Furthermore, unlined bras are supposedly the go-to fit solution, yet are consistently the most uncomfortable, drab bras in my experience. Am I doing something wrong?
