I really love this bra! It is the most comfortable panache/cleo bra I've tried. The Gore is not too high or wide for me which is often an issue I have with panache/cleo. I love the shape it gives too. Unfortunately this is a discontinued style. If anyone knows of they have a current version of this or something similar please let me know!

I do sometimes get a small gap near where the strap and cup meet depending on the position of my arms but it can't be seen through clothes and I have a dent in my breast tissue right there so this is sometimes unavoidable, so I'm not counting that as a fit issues, especially because this bra is so freaking comfortable.

The band is not as firm as many panache bands but it is tts.

Perfect biscotti bra to wear under light clothes! Very comfortable.

It's hard to make a beige T-Shirt bra cute. But Cleo managed to surprise me. They somehow made a grandma like bra design into something actually adorable. With the stripes, lace trim and button at the center gore, I would not be embarrassed to be caught in this bra.

This bra has a surprising amount of projection for a moulded cup. It creates a nice rounded shape, and like its unlined sisters, puts the boobs up front. That being said, it is a size too big and thus too tall for my short boobs. If I take a deep breath and stick my chest out, it looks much better, but standing and breathing normally, you can barely glimpse my boob above the cup. I want to try this bra in a cup size down to see if it works better, as it was quite comfy.

Happy surprises: Some immediate projection in a moulded bra? Whhaaatt?? Yes. No ... east-west appearance. More projected than the freya deco and freya deco halfcup.

Minor issues: The top of the cup is pretty thick, and a line can be seen under thin shirts. I'm not sure if this is because the bra is too big for me and the top sticks out more, or if it would still be an issue even if I sized down. I had some discomfort with the band, but I usually size up to a 32 in Cleos, so that may be why.

This bra was far too shallow for my shape. It is a well made bra and would be great for someone with more shallow breast.

My shape: teardrop set at average height, with super tall and super wide roots that give me all the shallow-boob fitting problems but with more projection, very close-set tissue in the middle, and firm tissue that fights back when squished or pushed out of shape

This review is for the black colorway.

I got the Maddie in a swap. This could be a really cute Tshirt bra style for me! It's black-on-black, which is great because I wear a lot of black but I don't have an everyday black bra right now, it's pretty soft inside the cups, and the detailing doesn't show through my shirts.

What does show through is ... the gaping at the armpit. The straps are absolutely too far apart for me, and it really pushes the cup away from my breast; plus, they rub and itch. I don't know if a 28 would help the problem at all by bringing in the strap base. It still gives nice lift and shape, and it's pretty open on top while still supporting well.

It is otherwise great in the cups! I think I'll try a 30F to see if it will help at all.

The band is thin but great, the gore tacks and feels pretty good, and the wire under my arm is just about at the edge of my breast root (although the curve is too steep, as is the case with most of my bras, since my root tail is shaped like the Nike symbol). I will say that I'm not sure if it was the underwire or the side seam that was moderately itchy, but that might go away with a wash. Since I'm not keeping it, I'll let someone else figure that part out.

This bra looks great, gives great lift and has a smooth silhouette for me. My only issue is that the straps have been rubbing against my skin. Not too much of a problem, but I've got sensitive skin anyway.

This bra feels really comfy. My boobs fit nicely in it and I like the shape.

This bra almost seems to fit perfectly but something's not quite right. Maybe it's because the only other properly fitting bras I have are plunges while this is not.. Anyway, when I stand just so, it looks like it fits perfectly, but then I move in a certain way (any way?) then bam - quadboob. I'm heavy on bottom rather than top, and a cup size bigger causes gapping, so I'm not sure what would cause/fix the issue.

This is the most comfortable moulded cup I have ever worn. Another review said it was an odd shaped cup. Not for me. Smooth and round here.
The wires and low under my arms. No wire pokes,
The cups are low like a half cup, the fabric is smooth under my clothing. The straps adjust fully and the band is firm. The button between the cups is so cute. The only thing I dislike is that the bra has a 2 hook closure. I prefer 3.
