Didn't fit
The Lily is a tricky model for me. 28E has been my trusty Cleo size for a while now and my first Lily was in a 28E. I thought it fit OK when I first got it. The only issue I noticed was that the wires/wings were quite short on the sides, allowing some tissue to escape. However, as time went on I noticed the cups cut into my larger breast a lot and were causing quadboob, so I decided to try a 28F.
I think I'm just not the right shape for this bra. This 28F "fits" -- the volume is about right, there's no wrinkling/quadboob, etc., but it looks too full-coverage on me. I don't think it's the fit that Panache intended. I believe Lily is supposed to be a lower-cut model, but I just don't like the armpit fat effect it gave me! The top of the cup is not very stretchy either and it doesn't allow for much fullness. I fill out a 30DD Marcie perfectly, but I quad out of the Lily in the equivalent size. It's not obvious due to the dark material, but I don't completely fill the bottom of the cup, indicating it's indeed a little too large.
As far as general info, the band is on the stretchier side of a 28. The material is very comfortable. Unfortunately, it does feature the signature super painful Cleo gore that will need to be broken in.
