I am surprised at how well this one fits! I fairly guessed at my size, so yay!
This bra is borderline too separate for my boobs. I say borderline because everything is fairly comfortable, but I get a weird feeling when I put my arms forward that my boobs are in the way of my upper arms. Strange.
No quadraboob (yay!) and the wires enclose everything well. I do get a tiny amount of emptiness in the bottom of the cups, but it isn't too bad. Good lift and shape. Quite a bit more projection than I thought I'd get!
I think I like my Ewa bras a bit better, but ... I could see this being a good everyday bra. The only thing I would really change is having three clasps instead of two.
-ETA- After wearing this a few times, I don't think this is the bra for me. I need a bra with soft elastic under the center gore. With all the Panache bras I've tried, there is a stiff almost sharp piece of fabric that lines the bottom front of their bras and this cuts in to me pretty badly. I know the band itself isn't too tight. It is probably because I have acquired a bit of fat in this region right below the center gore where anything stiff just feels so uncomfortable. Definitely sticking with my comfortable Ewa bras!
-ETA 2- This bra fits in theory, but in practice... Well for some odd reason it keeps slipping down my ribcage so I end up with a bit of emptiness in the bottom of the cups. The bottom of the bra has gotten a lot comfier after a few washes, so this is only the second time I have had the courage to wear it. I don't think Cleo is the brand for me.
