Fits me well except on my larger breast, in that case I have a little stray tissue on the outside. Overall I really like this bra though.

In general, people say Cleo Meg is a tricky fit, you either get quadboobs or the top is too loose, but Cleo Lily is much easier to fit for most people. It is on the contrary for me. I can fit nicely in Cleo Meg, albeit a little space on top of my smaller boob, but otherwise it is fine. In Cleo Lily, I have quadboobs. Under loose top it won't show, but with tight shirts, if I pull my shoulders to fix my posture to stand straighter, you can see the quadding.
I find the top of Cleo Lily is a bit too closed for my boobs. I ... would say I am even, leaning to FoT. The sides are also a little low for me, Cleo Marcie is higher. As for the wires, although I find the Lily and Marcie are of the same width (5.5"), somehow I feel that Lily wires go further behind my back than Marcie.
I would say Lily would suit people who have FoB boobs, just like Cleo Lucy. Other than that, the shape, strap placement, etc are of the usual quality of Cleo. The fabric of Lily is softer than Meg.

I love the style/look of this bra. The fit was ok. At first I thought the cups were a fraction big, but after tightening the straps the cup seemed to fit well. However I didn't feel it was as supportive as I prefer. This may be because I had the straps as tight as they would go, and maybe if I could have adjusted the straps just a little bit more, maybe this would have lifted and supported my breasts a bit more? Although it may just be the style of the bra.
It gives a nice round shape.

I own this bra in the geo print. This bra is exactly like all of the other cleo balconnect bras that I own. They all fit the same even with the different names of them. The major difference is just the designs that each of them come in.

I really love how absolutely comfortable this bra is. This is my second favorite bra after the Jude. It's very soft and smooth. I would recommend anyone to buy this bra.

I have this bra in the grey/coral. I really love the pattern of it. I don't have anything negative to say since its comfortable.

I have this bra in the Coral Spot. I don't have anything specific to write about other than I find it comfortable.

I would tell my friend that they should buy this bra because it is wonderfully comfortable and absolutely beautiful.

I own the Cleo Jude in 28F and 28FF so I knew the 28G would fit me. I'm still trying to find the perfect size for me.

I just got this bra and I am happy with it. It is beautiful. My under bust measurement is 70 cm (very tightly 68) and the band felt very tight. But I am sure it will stretch, though 30 would surely be more comfortable in the beginning. Lovely rounded shape and the purple color is just stunning. Under wires track my boobs almost perfectly (about 1 cm narrower would be perfect). Straps felt a tad stiff at first, but after wearing it a few days they are very comfortable. Overall I am rather pleased with Cleo Lucy.
I also got the matching panties in size 12 (M) and they fit nicely (loose, not cutting in and stay up just fine) hips 94cm and the place where the panties sit at upper hip 90cm. I am guessing size 10 would be good aswell.
EDIT: The band is too tight for my taste and I will need 30FF next time I buy this style.

Maddie reminds me of the original Deco, but this one does have wider cups, so it won't hurt my armpits. The cup shape is pretty much projected to the front (too much imo, for I like to have some breast shape visible from directly in front too). Still, a beautiful uplift!
It feels good all over, and is soft to wear. Check the size chart before buying.

As you can see from the photo, this bra creates a beautiful profile and fits my shape really well. It's the first Cleo I've bought, and I'm really impressed. The wires and straps are too wide on me, which causes some uncomfortable rubbing, but I can still wear the bra for a full day without a great amount of discomfort. The band was also really tight (I'm used to wearing Freya 28s)--at first I thought it was actually too tight for my 27" (snug) ribcage, but it's become far comfier with a few wears and a couple washes.

Wide cups are great for my shallow, close together boobs. Nice supportive lining, but the result isn't perfectly round. I still think it's cute and natural shape. Shoulder straps are soft - I really prefer fabric straps which won't itch.
The band is somewhat loose so I had to sew in a bit. Over all a lovely bra.

Love this bra! True to size and super comfy. Stretches a little more quickly than I'd like, but otherwise a great choice.

Beautiful bra just I hate the material I find it is very scratchy. and the band is nice and firm

I hate the bra. I just prefer molded bras. The band fits tight for a 28 and fits true to size/

A lovely looking bra with a nice tight band. Sadly I can't fill the cups of this bra. My settled bottom heavy boobs are not big enough fog a 28G but 28FF is too small. Compared to Lucy (witch is very good fit on me in 28G/30FF) it seems the cups are about half or a quarter a cup larger.

Gorgeous and super supportive.
Gives a perfect rounded shape and doesn't gape at the top, even though I am fuller at the bottom than at the top.
The centre gore is however too wide for me as I have close set breasts so I cannot wear this bra for too long at a time. Otherwise the wires are very comfortable and don't rub or poke.

It was uncomfortable at first, especially in the gore, but after you've worn it a few times, that discomfort goes away, as it gets used to you. My problem right now, having had it for a couple weeks, is that when I put it on the loosest setting, I can easily fit my whole hand under the band with plenty of wiggle room. But, when I put it on tighter settings, the band cuts into me uncomfortably. It doesn't seem to rise up or anything in the band. I need to shorten the straps manually when I have time, and this is the closest I've ever had to a bra that fits, but the band confuses my uneducated self.

My first bra after getting re-sized for weight loss and discovery of the proper way to size a bra. I measure a 27.5 around my ribcage and this bra is pretty tight, I'll probably get an extender for it before wearing it regularly. Cups fit very nicely, underwire is a good width and gore sits perfectly on my chest.
I would love to try the same bra in the sister size 30FF to see if that might help with the incredibly tight band.
