AW2010 - SS2017 - Unpadded balconette with a partial band and floral embroidery

This bra is discontinued.
I have finally discovered the famous Cleo shape! I had to loosen the straps to avoid it cutting in on top, but it appears to fit after adjusting. I may need to take in the gore to compensate for my inner fullness, but it's wearable as is. The fabric is a little rough.

The red version of Lucy is so pretty. It's a soft red that is a little bit more orangey than a bright or a dark red.
If I wear this bra for more than 2 hours I can feel the bottom of the U of the underwires digging into my bony ribs. This is resolved by putting on a band extender. If I take the center gore in on this bra, it would fit except for needing an extender sometimes.

A little tight in the band and the underarm area, and the gore doesn't quite tack. There's some wrinkling on the bottom of the cup, too.

I really like how this bra fits with regard to the band size and the cup's width and depth. It gives great support and structure. It also gives boobs a more rounded shape/less pointy than some other unpadded bras that I have tried.
While everything else about this bra is a perfect fit, the one thing that does not fit is that the cup is more closed at the top and so cuts into breast tissue causing a quad boob effect. If only the cups were more open, this bra would belong to the perfect fit category.

I'm giddy over this one. It works pretty well. I could use a touch more projection at the bottom (I think), but other than that this bra is the best fit yet.
In fact, I keep checking myself out in bathroom mirrors and am continually amazed at the consistency of the fit.
It's comfortable, too. I had read about some folks' experience about Lucy being scratchy and pokey, but I find this bra to be supremely comfortable.
And the UPLIFT....it's almost baffling considering the gossamer fabric the cups are made of.

This bra is very beautiful! Unfortunately the wires are digging in my breast tissue under my arms and the cups wrinkle a little bit. I think it's not the right shape for my breasts.

It's an amazing bra, i really love it. It's a bit tight for me so I use an extender, hopefully it'll stretch a bit more. It's very pretty, i love the details, however as it is white and a soft bra (? I can't wear it with any shirt I want. I think everyone should give it a try.

The cups are too small for me, and the band although a 28 (which is what i measure) seems a little on the tight side...
The material feels good enough; it isn't particularly smooth or soft but it isn't scratchy or stiff. Still, I think it does a good job with structure and support due to it's less stretchy material (the band does not ride up). Other than that, I cannot say more because this bra did not fit me. Will be returning it.

I see! :) Thanks tiggaren , will definitely keep that in mind. I do like the bands snug; keeps from riding up too much. Am going to try the correct size cup and see how it goes! :)
If you're narrow like me with high roots, this is going to cut into your armpits like mad. The cut didn't work for me on top as I'm FOB and it was a bit floppy. Someone more balanced with a lower, wider root would do well in this cut.

Just a note, if the cups are too small, it may make the band seem tighter than it really is. I had a 28DD Ellis which felt way too tight, but every 28E Cleo I have had after that was perfectly comfortable. It also depends on preference, and some people say Cleo bands run snugly. I'm not sure. Regardless, yoy may want to keep that in mind :)
