I can't fill the bottom of the cups because the wires are not flexible enough and got a "V-shape" .
I need U-shaped wires .

This cut is totally wrong for my shape. It is reasonably attractive for a T shirt bra, and the price is very reasonable but it cut in and was too big in the cups at the same time. I don't know if another size would have helped, I found a much better fit with the Cleo Juna so don't plan to try this again. Cups seemed very wide-set. The band is a typical Cleo 28 and was snug on the loosest hook on my 28" ribcage. I returned this one.

The Cleo Jude is a weird one to fit. I had to size up to a 28FF as the cup in a 28F cuts into my upper breast tissue even though I am bottom heavy. The bra itself is very basic looking, though it does have a ribbon detail.
The bra is very comfortable and works well under shirts without showing through (I have it in Nude). The straps are fully adjustable and the plunge goes very low.
ETA: I've worn this bra for about a month and have decided that it doesn't really work for me. Having to size up to avoid quadboob has meant that the top of the cup is really too wide and pokes me in the arm. The wires are still fine but the bra seems too wide set now at the top.

It fits well. It just looks a little odd. It doesn't give a cleavage really. It kind of covers my boob area. A size smaller would definitely be too small though. It looks good under clothes and is comfortable and a good colour.

I've found this bra material to be stretchier than most, and therfore, looser than I would like. I usually wear something like a 30F, but bought this in a 32E because many of them feel a bit too tight. That was a mistake, as I'd prefer a 30 in this for sure.
The bra feels lighter weight than my other moulded-cup / T-shirt bras, which I like.
The color is really nice, some combination of red, coral, and hot pink. (Not a true red, so don't expect to be able to match it with anything). Straps that were once a very light silvery blue have since trurned lilac/lavender from washing with red clothes.

This bra suprised me. Plunge styles are often a fail on me but this is a great fit. It's a *very* comfy bra to wear. In fact I liked it so much I bought a couple of them. I get a bit of quad boob on my bigger side after scooping but if I give the girls a bit of a jiggle everything settles into the cup nicely.
The moulding is a little thicker than I would like but I can live with it. They look smooth under t-shirts and the bra is often advertised as a t-shirt bra, but they all come in bright colour combos ... so will be very visible under light coloured shirts. Ok if you are doing the underwear as outerwear thing I guess!
I'm going to have to revise this review, after several weeks I found that this bra just didn't wear well and some minor issues became a very big problem because of it. The band felt stretchier than normal in this bra and I should have tried the 28 instead. As soon as the bra started to stretch I had massive quadboobs and the center gore was pulling away from my chest. Bringing the bra in to a tighter hook brought the gore back in but there is just no escaping the quadboob problem. My measurements haven't changed so I think the band starting to stretch just highlighted the fact that the fit wasn't quite right to begin with.
I now think a size 28 e or f would probably be closer to the right size for me but I've just decided not to bother as I think in a larger cup I am going to have way too much bra in the underarm area and this is just the wrong style of bra for me. When I compare this to my Panache porcelain which is also a moulded bra I can see that the Jude has a much flatter, shallower cup - which is generally what I need but in this case it seems to be too much of a good thing. The Jude is moulded from a much thicker foam which is also probably contributing to the problem as it seems like there is less room in the bra as a result.

This bra is pretty comfortable, though I think it runs a little smaller than other Cleo bras. It gives a smooth appearance under t-shirts. The cup is thin foam (less than a quarter inch) but has no push-up padding in it.

This is a pretty t-shirt bra though I find if I wear it all day it gets a little uncomfortable - the wires start digging in a bit. May be that it's relatively new still. It's not as supportive as my other Cleo bras but since it's a plunge I didn't really expect it to be.

Love the bra, it is too small in the cups for me. I think I need an FF or even a G...but it gives great cleavage and would be a great going out bra!

So after wearing the Cleo Jude in 34E twice, I have to say that it is a pretty good fit, but I believe that my breasts are set further apart than is comfy with this bra. The quality is great. It looks strong at all seams and hooks. I love that it is a nude/beige bra that I can wear under anything but it still has some design and frill to it with the bit of pink. I do get a bit of digging in the sides under my armpits. I believe that this is due to the cups being closer together than what I need. Overall, I think it is a great bra and will continue to use it.
