Cleo Hettie still around?

Is the Cleo Hettie (http://www.bratabase.com/browse/cleo/hettie-balconnet-bra-9011/) discontinued, or is it in stores still?
And how is its fit? I've had people recommend it to me. I'm projected, pendulous and with narrow roots. Is the lace on the top as stretchy as the Panache Jasmine? Is the band a traditional Panache band (true to size, tight)?
The Panache Jasmine gives me a slightly pointy shape, but not enough for me to not enjoy the fit. I feel like my breasts are extra secure in the bra with the stretchy lace.

  • Hettie is in black and purple for the fall and will be in hot pink for the spring. I think the lace stretch depends on the cup size. In smaller sizes it is unlined and in larger cup sizes it is lined and pretty firm. I'm not sure where the cut off point for the lined lace is, however.

  • I have it in 28F and it does have the typical Panache/Cleo band, meaning it's slightly on the tighter side. It works extremely well for projection and narrow roots, and I imagine it would work well for your pendulousness. I believe the stretch lace is double lined starting at a GG cup. In fact, I've been thinking about selling mine; would you be interested in trying it out?
