Didn't fit
I've tried the Cleo Meg in both 28GG and 28H, and ultimately kept the 28H because the cups on the 28GG were giving me a distorted shape (not rounded like I prefer) and I was spilling out of the sides of the cup. Although I get some space at the top part of the cup I will never be able to fill (this happened in both sizes), the 28H was the better fit.
Here's my take on the bra:
Cups - I have breasts that are neither full on top nor bottom, they would be considered even. As mentioned by other reviewers, this bra would work best with full on top ladies. On me, although there's wrinkling on the top portion, the rest of the cup is doing a great job at supporting. The material of the cups is very sturdy and lifts your breasts front and centre, with very little effort!
Centre gore - digs in a little and sits on some tissue as I am close set (not going to be an every day bra for me, probably a once a week bra)
Band - the band feels true to a 28. It's stretchy enough that the cups don't grind on your ribs if you have less fluff in your underbust.
Straps - fully adjustable and soft. No problems with it digging in. The straps are ribbed so the adjuster stays put.
Appearance - Very, very cute. I love the bird theme and finishings and splashes of red all around.
Overall, it's a comfortable bra to kick around in after work while wearing a loose tank top and is a welcome addition to my regular rotation. While I should probably stay away from similar cup shapes from Cleo, I don't regret keeping this one. If you are considering this bra, I would say it is true to size, however, make sure the cup shape is right for you!This bra is not owned any more
