    Unfortunately, not the right shape for me!

    A beautiful bra.

    34FF

    Didn't fit

    Cup appears to fit pretty well but the wires are not wide enough or high enough under the arm to enclose all tissue so it escapes back out and gets poked which is very uncomfortable. The fabric is not scratchy but a bit rough. One cup size up would probably be better but might be too deep and wires might still not be wide or high enough.

    Wow, cups were much too small! Major quad-boob. The band was nice and snug -- almost too tight. Liked the bra, returned this size and ordered a cup size up.

    Didn't fit

    Runs one cup size small. Band is too big for me and rides up but I do still wear it often and will be altering it soon. The cups fit perfectly. I also tried a 28 G and while the band fits on that one the cups are off. I am not sure why the difference, the 28 does have a slightly wider center gore. I usually prefer padded bras but this one gives an awesome shape despite the lack of it. Very pretty bra! I have it in berry but will keep an eye out for more colors in a 28 G. Underwires are wider than my Fantasie and Curvy Kate bras but it doesn't seem to affect comfort or fit in my case...will definately buy this one again.

    30J

    Didn't fit

    I found the band very tight, I could hardly fasten it. It felt really unconfortable. I could only comfortably wear it with extender. So if you are between sizes, go for the bigger band size. (This might be a bra for all those who need a tight or below an 28 band) I wear ususally 30 bands in Cleo but I’ll need a 32 in this style.
    Also it runs generally a bit smaller than other Cleo bras I tried in this size. It gave me light quadraboob even when I wore it with an extender. It allows less room on top than Alexa or Meg. But overall I found it supportive and it gives great uplift and the “Cleo George shape”.
    The colours are a bit less bright than on the pictures from Bravissimo. I will definately try a 32J of this if I get the chance to.

    28F

    Didn't fit

    I bought this bra because I read that it was the same cut as the Cleo Rihanna, which was slightly too small for me in 28E. Sadly this one is too big, the cups aren't filled at the top and come up too high on my chest. If you have fuller-on-top breasts, this may work well for you.

    • Do you still have the bra? If you do, I might be interested in buying it :) I find it very hard to get a hold of padded/lined bras in 28F, which I believe is my usual size. The fact that you suspect this bra to be good for full on top boobs made me even more interested, as I have super full-on-top boobs! :)

    As other people have pointed out it runs a bit small. I ordered my normal Panache size and it's a tiny bit too small. I suspect a full cup size larger might be too big though. The band fits the same as other Panache bras I've tried.

    The bra is very pretty, and I love the colors! It's not quite as smooth as a t-shirt bra, being seamed, but it doesn't show through most of my shirts. The fabric inside the cups is very soft and comfy against the skin.

    30G

    Didn't fit

    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 .

    32G

    Didn't fit

    I tried on this bra in a fitting room at Nordstroms, so sadly I haven't got any measurements. Though it was pretty on the rack, I was so repulsed by the fit that I got out of it as quickly as possible.

    The band, though it has a decent amount of stretch, was too tight for me on the loosest setting. I couldn't fill the top of the cups, so there was a great deal of wrinkling. The center gore rose up so high that I couldn't conceive of how the bra could ever be comfortable. The straps were also difficult to adjust, though I did get them to a point where they fit. Maybe this bra would be better for someone with breasts that have more tissue on the upper side.

    Band runs small and cups don't work for me.

    30G

    Didn't fit

    This definitely didn't fit in the band (which alerted me to the fact that I was no longer a 30). It seemed like a nice, comfortable plunge, but was too bright and had cups too large to serve its purpose well. Not worth the money.

    I got this bra after the Alexa which is the same model. The cup does run slightly smaller in the Sasha but not enough for me to get it in a larger size. The Alexa had a little extra fabric in the top and this bra is perfectly smooth. Still a great option for full on top boobs. The straps are a little wide set but I can live with it because these bras give great support and shaping. A nice round profile, no point in sight.

    Update: After wearing this bra a few times its does shift throughout the day and cause slight quad boob. I do not have this problem with the Alexa. If I were to buy this bra again I would probably go up a cup size.

    38H

    Didn't fit

    I normally wear a 38GG, but I had to go up to the 38H for this bra. It gives great support, but the underwires are a little too high in the armpit for my body. They poke a little bit throughout the day, but the great support and fun color make it worth it for me.

    The store advertised this as being "lime" but it's really highlighter yellow.

    38GG

    Didn't fit

    I love this bra! It runs true to size and fits me really well. It's got great support, and it doesn't make my boobs look pointy. The seams aren't noticeable under most tops, so it works with most outfits.

    The only drawback is that the underwires go up a little too high into the armpits for my body. They poke a little bit, and I have to adjust them occasionally throughout the day.

    38GG

    Didn't fit

    I love this bra! It is my absolute favorite, and it's super comfortable for all-day wear. The straps are a bit far apart on the shoulders, but they never slip down, so it's perfect for boat-neck tops or anything with a wide neckline.

    38GG

    Didn't fit

    This bra was at least a full cup size too small for me. I wear a 38GG in almost all brands (including several other styles of Cleo) but this one was much too small in the cups. I gave it to someone who wears a 38G and she says it fit her well, so I'd recommend ordering up a cup size.

    38GG

    Didn't fit

    These cup sizes were much too small. I wear a 38GG in most bras (including several other styles of Cleo) but this bra didn't even come close to fitting. I ended up giving it to someone who wears a 38G and it fit her almost perfectly.

    I bought this bra in a grab-bag sale with no returns or exchanges, so I didn't get a chance to try any other sizes, but I'd recommend ordering up a cup size.

    This bra is so cute. It seems to fit pretty well, although I would like to try one one cup size larger as it feels a bit like the outer edge of the cups sit on my breast tissue a little bit.

    30F

    Didn't fit

    Pros:
    a) It is flush everywhere except the lower quarter near the centre gore, where there is some slight gaping, but I think this may be solved, once I become more proficient at swoop and scooping, or have any amount of migration (which I am hoping for).

    b) It seems to enclose my migrated side tissue perfectly!

    c) Sexy!

    Cons:

    a) The centre gore sits on some breast tissue, but as I have not yet found a bra that didn't I will stick with this one.

    b) Above mentioned gaping.

    c) Shows through thin t-shirts.
