I am really dissapointed in this one.
I didn't buy it earlier because the pattern isn't really my thing,
But now it was so cheap and I was certain it will give me the shape I look for and I will grow to love it.

Nope. The shape it gives me is too projected, and it somewhat flattens me on top, looking almost pointy from the profile?
Very weird, I would expect that from a bravissimo balconette, not cleo.
Fromthe front it looks good but the flowery lace upperpart is very visible under clothes.
It's also quite high in coverage, which is what I look for but might me a minus for some.

I found the band to be quite loose. I know my underbust shrunk, but I have some panache superbras in my drawer that are 30's and they are much more firm.
This one is comparable to a Freya 30, and it may feel even looser because of the lack of support from just two hooks.

After wear, the pressure on my shoulders was quite substantial which is proof the band isn't doing it's job, not even on the tightest hook where I have it to prevent the ride-up.

I am also surprised by how fat apart the straps are, I wasn't expecting that to be such a problem in 30H bra. (used to be 30J)

Wires are spot on for me, although they seem slightly weaker then other cleos I own.

Usually I am not keen on Cleo patterns but I also regularly find them much more appealing in person then online. This one was the exception. I found it to be the ugliest bra I ever layed my eyes on.
I know some find it cute, but I just can't relate.

This bra is not owned any more
