196 bras

this is my best overall fitting bra. I found it to be consistent on size compared to the bulk of the Cleo bras I've tried. It lays relative flat under tees. Unfortunately with the bright color I can only use it under darker clothes. I have seen it listed as neon green - I think the color is more of a neon lemon-lime.

This bras cup depth looked about right for me, but the wires are too wide and I don't fill out the tops of the cups. A 30E might work. The band fits tight.

If you have close set breasts, the wires may bother you as they bother me. The first Kali I ordered was a 32DD and it felt like my breasts were being forced into my ribs. After putting my bra on backward and upside down, I learned I did not require a 32" band, and the cups were significantly small. Before wearing this 30F backward and upside down, I thought its band was too small. Just the cups were too small. These cups just don't cover enough of my breast. Although I have short roots, I have quite a large pillow of tissue exuding from the top. I have been thoroughly spoiled by Comexim, Anna Pardal, and Ewa Michalak: Cleo is not remotely comfortable, to me, compared to the aforementioned brands. I will wait for the made to order Comexim/Anna Pardal bras. Sigh.

I am in love with this bra. It is gloriously neon green, and it fits my boobs fantastically. The wire width is perfect, there's no gapping, no quadboob, no puckering, no wrinkles, just smooth, uplifted, rounded neon goodness. I have short, projected, center heavy boobs and this bra accommodates all of that perfectly. I love this bra. I want to keep this bra and give it compliments and buy it flowers. I want to buy other bras like it because I love the way it fits my boobs like a glove.

Except that murderous gore.

The bottom of the gore on the Kali falls directly on the end ... of my sternum where my ribs begin to separate (pressing on the xiphoid process, for anyone who remembers their anatomy class). The pressure/digging in is not noticeable immediately, but becomes excruciating within a couple hours. I've tried putting a layer of moleskin along the gore which diminishes the digging-in, but cannot eliminate it completely. From my frantic googling, this appears to be because I am fairly low set (equivalent to long torso issues). If you are high set, or even just average so that the gore falls on your ribs and not on your xiphoid process, you will probably be just fine.


tl;dr version: Fits short, projected boobs perfectly, awe-inducing neon color, but individual issues caused by the lack of band below the bra. If the Cleo Lucy works for you, than this bra will too.

Too big in the cup, to even evaluate any other part of the bra. The search continues!
