Oh how I wanted this bra to work, I lusted after it when it came out and searched for it used everywhere. When I saw this one I thought I might be able to fit it even though it's 1 cup sizes too big for me... Surprise! It didn't fit. I would LOVE to get a 28F or 30E!

This is probably the best fitting bra I own, so much so that I now have 4 of them! It is well suited to my even/FOT shape with tall roots. The wire width is great, and it's open enough on top for me. I also love the shape it gives - round and forward. The gore is comfortable even though it sits on tissue a bit (if the wires were overlapping in the middle, it would be perfect). The only thing I don't really love is that the polka dots on the mesh and the seams do show through thin shirts quite a bit, but it's nothing that ... a cami can't fix.
I've noticed some fit differences between the colors I own - Raspberry, Yellow, Bluebell, and Magenta. The Bluebell has a very stretchy band. I'd say it fits more like a typical 30 band, compared to the others which run on the tighter side. My underbust measures somewhere around 28"-29" and the bands on all the colors in 30F are comfortable for me, however I had to wear the Bluebell on the tightest hook from the beginning, so I probably should have gone for a 28 band had I known. Of the 4, the band on the Yellow Marcie felt the snuggest. I also had some in-cup quadding in the Raspberry colorway only, but it went away after a few months of wear.

I think this bra (Cleo Lily (7351)) is a good, sturdy bra. My only complaint is that I've grown out of the band, and if I use a band extender, the cups get too big. It's a very good, comfortable bra for those boobs who are wide set and heavy on bottom. The straps were slightly uncomfortable for me and dug into my shoulders a bit, but I do have low set boobs. I think if the band was not so tight, this would definitely be my go to bra!

*Note: this is a pregnancy bra for me
Fits nicely and is softer than other Cleos I've tried. Straps have a clippy thingie to turn it into racerback which is great for petites that have issues with straps falling.

Initially thought this was a great fit, then realized it's insufficiently projected for my FOB, projected, narrow root, wide set breasts. Great basic bra and love the little bit of flair the lace edging gives. Unfortunately, the insufficient immediate project means there's open space at the top of the cup and my breast folds over at the bottom inside the cup as the wire slides down out of my IMF during the day. Comfortable microfiber-y fabric inside and out, though.

For times when I want a moulded bra instead of unlined, this is the one! It doesn't make me look significantly larger, and provides my breasts with good shape. I'm still pretty new to buying bras in this size and have yet to find something that shapes as well as Maddie. It doesn't have a ballet/u-back which made me nervous at first, but it holds strong anyway. This bra gives me an uplifted look without crazy cleavage, which I really like.
Cons: it gives me a bit of back bulge (but I have yet to find a bra that is supportive that doesn't), and the lacey edging on the cups can show through shirts.

I like this bra, but I can't love it because the gore hurts after a full day's wear. Half as much lace above the cup would be preferable, too! I do like the single seamed cup and the wire width. I've never found an unlined Cleo that fit or was comfortable, but this Juna is a rather great fit. (gore aside)

I LOVE this bra model! It's one of te only ones that fit me properly. The gore is till a bit too high but bending the wires out helps a lot. I own 3 of these in 2 colors, I hope they never discontinue them.

The only Cleo bra I own in 30F, the others are 28F, 30E or 32DD. Looks like the pink Marcie runs small in the cup.

I just dont know why some Cleo Junas make me take such a gore. The 28ff is comfy but the 30f not. I just cut it off and lez my sewing machine do the rest.

This bras cup depth looked about right for me, but the wires are too wide and I don't fill out the tops of the cups. A 30E might work. The band fits tight.

This is the closest fit I've found so far. A tiny bit of wrinkling at the sides and bottom of the cup indicating that I might need something a touch narrower and with a tiny bit more immediate projection. The gore is a little high for my personal preference, but not a deal breaker. There's a bit of loose netting at the top, but just a little and mostly on my smaller boob.
I wish there was a way to indicate that it's *almost* a bra that fits. Because this is pretty darn close.
(I'm projected, even, narrow rooted & average root height - for reference)

I love the Cleo Lily. See my other reviews for more info. I searched high and low for this swan print in my size, but I'm shrinking, and by the time this international order came in, it was already too big. I wore it once, but the sternum stabbed me because I didn't fully fill out the cups. For whatever reason, it arrived to me "new" with the Cleo tag cut out, but the size tag intact. For reference, this "charcoal" color is like the "soft black" color in hosiery.

I'd say the sizing (both cup and band) is nearly identical to the @Marcie (I own a purple one in the same size), the Riley is slightly smaller. I may have been better off in a 70E or maybe F, but this was the last size they had in store. I don't own a maddie with which to compare it, but I notice that the top is more closed in that with other bras I have, it cuts in a bit on my larger breast and I've got minor gapping up towards the armpit on both sides (not as bad as with the deco's). The straps ... are a little wide-set.
That said: everything stays in place perfectly and I'd say it's comfortable, except that I can feel the wire on my ribcage under my right breast. That happened on the Marcie during the first wear or two but that issue went away pretty quickly and I expect the same for this bra. The fabric is nice (soft, smooth, decent quality) but kind of loose on the cup, it wrinkles until you smooth it out. The color surprised me, too: the pink is super pink and the navy could be mistaken for purple. The bra itself is invisible under tight tops and gives a nice rounded shape but nothing too dramatic.

Band: Fits well.
Wires: Slightly low and wide, but padding in the cup seems to compensate.
Gore: Tacks on the top but gaps slightly on the bottom? It's a plunge bra. Should I worry about this? It's not floating way off my sternum, anyway.
Cup: I think I'm a little center full. This bra fits but if I stand straight with my shoulders back there's slight quad boobing. If I slouch there's a little gap.
Straps: Comfortable.
Comfort: It's not 100% perfect but it's pretty decent? Thinking about keeping this one. I'm not sure how much of that is gore relief, though.

I bought this last spring, when I discovered that the Cleo Maya in 30F was super deep. They're both supposed to be Marcie clones. Well, one of them is a mutant clone, because this bra is giving me in-cup and above-cup quadboob. Same wire width and gore height as the Maya, same general construction, but definitely way more shallow.
