Didn't fit

Wow! I'd ruled Cleo out for my shallow wide rooted boobs, after trying several on in Bravissimo over the last year. I've tried Meg bird print which is gorgeous and Lily (stunning!) but they were just sooo wrong for my shape that I almost wept. I wrote Cleo off as pretty, but just seriously incompatible with my shape. However, I recently realised that my previously perfect fitting 30DD Deco half cup and Ashlee half cup were now giving me undeniable quad boob and the bands have stretched out quite significantly, so much so that the Deco half cup is unbearable on certain days due to constantly having to lift my straps back up, grrr!
I realised I'd gone from having a handful of well fitting smooth tshirt bras that I wear to work to having just one decent(ish!) bra, and therefore needed to get some more straightforward simple moulded bras. I found this badboy on Amazon for £7.50 in a 30E and thought it was worth a go. I also bought a Neve (not good...the only bra I've ever actually tried that was TOO SHALLOW for me!) but that went straight back.
So....what a shocker, Maddie fits BEAUTIFULLY! I was worried it may be too deep a cup for me and possibly too narrow wires (the 30DD Cleos I've tried, whilst being v.different styles to Maddie, have always had too narrow wires). But it's spot on! In a 30E the wires are perfectly wide, there's no gaping at all at the top but no quad boob either. My days of too long straps are over - the Maddie straps are sooo short! I wore it today with the straps the loosest they could go, and it was perfect, they didn't budge!
The band is fairly snug, and I'm really hoping it stays that way and doesn't stretch out too quickly.
It's a fairly nice looking bra, I wish it was a different colour, but hey ho, a perfectly fitting functional bra for £7.50, I can't really complain! (but if this style came in purple...ooh or a dark green, woah, it'd be STUNNING!). Top notch, v.impressed. Very comfortable, literally the stuff bra dreams are made of!

This bra is not owned any more
