Yellow colourway:

The band of the pink ran tight enough that I sized up from the 30; however the 32 in the yellow feels a bit loose. I guess it's stable enough because it's not riding up, but after only a couple of wears I'm already onto the middle hooks.

My main problem with the Marcie is the high gore. While the gore is narrow (good for my close-set breasts), it's not narrow enough. The little button on the bow on the gore stops the wires from being able to bend towards each other - which is possibly its purpose, but there really isn't room enough for two wires between my breasts and because the wires can't bend toward each other, the only other option is for them to bend as a single unit. So I end up with two underwires on the inner tissue of my larger breast. It's not uncomfortable, luckily, but neither is it awesome, especially when I have to bend over to pick up the little one. I suppose I'll have to just remove the button, which is a bit of a shame because I kinda liked that feature.

Still, it works for now as a good enough everyday bra, and I prefer it to Lucy's wide gore.
