I love the fit if it would fit me. It has alot of potential, in the right size. I hope I can get my hands on a 32HH to see if it fits better. I love love the white polka dots, I love that little detail. The underewires are way too big it practically wraps around my torso. They also dig horribly into my armpits. But other than the fact the wires and cup are a tad too big. I love it.

Gore simultaneously angles sideways and presses into chest. I can stick a finger down the inner side of the cup, and the top wrinkles. Wrinkles so extend from straps down the whole length of the cup.

I returned this bra after wearing it for a few hours, as it dug in badly under my left arm, leaving a painful red mark. I had to size down in the cup for this bra. My 38FF - Bravissimo » Rosie Bra (LN229) and 38FF - Bravissimo » Melrose Bra (SB25) were much more comfortable.

I went with the 32DD because some Cleo bands run a bit snug on me and the 32DD was on sale. I get just a little bit of in cup quadding, but I'm not sure if a size up would help, I think it would be a bit too big. However, unlined Cleos and me still don't get along very well because I don't care for the shape I get under clothes, but their cute bras keep tempting me. I love the lift and cleavage I get from the Minnie, just I feel unbalanced under clothes since everything gets pushed in to the center, and somehow under a shirt I also feel as though I look flattened from the front.

I was soooooo disappointed with this bra. It's absolutely gorgeous in person (I got the Navy blue and yellow colorway), but it's a complete shape mismatch for me. Since the size I got refitted as is a 28G, that's the first size I tried this in. Everything fit perfectly except for the lace at the top of the cups, which was so wrinkly and loose that I couldn't even imagine wearing it, even as an at-home bra. Thinking I might need to go down a cup size, I tried the 28FF; the lace was still wrinkled and loose, but the actual cups were too small to the point that the underwires were cutting into my breast tissue towards the center and I was quadding right above the center gore (I didn't even know that was possible). As much as I love the look of this bra, I'm going to have to return it.

Cup size too big. Quality material. Excellent support. Great upfront shape.

Too small cup, Too large band.
I don't know my correct size.
I must go up two cup, and must down one band.

The Marcie fits me ok, but the Minnie is more problematic: the cups are a fraction too deep, and want a different shape to the upper breast. There's space for more breast than I have (I'm evenly shaped), but it's a tight upper edge that I feel would fight with soft tissue and look like it's cutting in.
I'm not bothered by the fit issues, as it's not visible through shirts, but it's not what I'd call ideal. However, I wear 30 bands in Cleo, so I'm not sure how much of the fit issue is due to sizing up in the band (or whether sizing up in the band is the only reason the cups are rendered wearable for me).

I am full on top, and this bra fits me better than any other bra I've tried on. The main material is thicker than most Cleo bras I have purchased

Just got this bra, and it is probably the closest bra that I have to being one that fits.
I love it. It's cute and playful, and this is coming from someone that really only wears solid color bras (from VS)
The two issues I have with the fit, are:
- the straps feel like they're digging in, and they're I the longest setting.
-there is wrinkling at the top of the cup on the bigger breast.
And I guess another issue is that the bra isn't rounded on the side, but that may be due to the shape of my breasts. My breasts don't look round when I'm braless
This bra is cute enough that I would definitely look for more colors and/or dye one black.
