Too small. Usually 32E-34DD fits in english brands. The cups are too low to give good support. Could be a perfect low gore strapless bra for someone else. This bra is for sale.

What a pretty bra ! It's very trendy looking with its pattern and its deep autumn yellow color that photos can't quite show. The strong magnetic clasp on the back is another nice element that helps a little bit with strap support and that can be used for line drying the bra. I personally have fine motricity issues that force me to hook bras on the front and rotate them, but the magnet had no difficulty catching its opposite part all by itself on the back.
The band is true to size, but cups are a bit on the smaller side especially for Cleo. This is partly due to ... the inner mesh sling bringing breast tissue to front, and also due to the very firm elastic making cups very closed on top. Tall roots, full on top, and shapes that are both close set and center full might get a lot of quad boob with this bra. The elastic is great for my full on bottom and short roots though. I also have narrow roots, but the side sling helps keeping boobs firmly in place, so the pretty wide wires aren't a problem for me. The cups have a pretty good amount of immediate and apex projection.
The fabric is pretty but the lace is a little bit scratchy. The straps are only partially adjustable, and for this reason I think sister sizing probably wouldn't work with this bra.

I've been told that I'm short and shallow 28E. However fitters either bring me the smallest thing they can find with a giant band, that inevitably dangles around my ribs with cups that barely cover the middle half of each breast & wires comically perch at least 2" from the imf, or, they dredge up a dusty ole thing in the smallest band + FF/G/GG in stock which tends to be closer to width and depth needs, but absurdly tall.

Which brings us in a sort of desperation, to this bra. Brazenly advised as being a wonder of even fullness & FOT friendly.

I've tried reasoning with 'Skeletor' ... (lovingly christened for being the exact same shades of purple & blue as the main villain from He-Man), and ultimately this thing feels like it's only going to work for people who are:
super narrow, somewhat conical, only slightly projected (coming from polish perspective) with most of their projection pretty much on the inner cup to around the nipple, have the smallest shoulders on earth, moderately FOB & definite lack of upper tissue. If this sounds like you- hurry hurry, scoop this beauty up. She doesn't have all day to languish on the rack.

However for myself, it's undergone numerous surgeries to get us through the introductory period, many times I've taken out the sewn basting, reapplied to manage the weird wrinkling, tried to bend the wire, replace the wire, & even added padding to the underwire. This is not a style that affords much immediate depth, but there is probably about a half inch in there then the pattern goes completely flat which spells doom for anyone who needs a lil room.
There's not getting around all the things I need that Hettie can't give. like at least 2" immediate depth on the outside of cup at the wire, that could might be a start. It's not quite a side control style but my trauma from those, reminds me that this has a very similar feel. "Sorry girl you can't tell these street toughened side titty not nothing, they will tear your life up, Hettie. It's not personal, just sneak off before they see ya".

1000% not my jam whereas the odd Della has made up for cleo's many sins & appeased my boob's wrath

The color is Olive with pink lace edging. Very cute. In my opinion, the band on this fits tight and isn't very stretchy. It also runs small - my ribcage measures 31" so I started with a 32, but it was way too tight. Even going up one size in the band, but not in the cup, it is a pretty but not comfortable bra. Shall see how it holds up comfortwise after a few washes.

My breast shape: Shallow-low projection, wide root, full on bottom. If they had this bra in a 36C, I would definitely try it because it seemed like it would be a wonderful tshirt bra. Unfortunately, the cups on this bra were just too big for me. Comfortable though!

My weight has changed a bit recently so I was trying out some different sized bras. My breast shape: Shallow-low projection, wide root, full on bottom. Turns out 36C is working for me in most brands, but Cleo Juna didn't have any 36Cs available so I opted for the 34D. The cups, especially the right one, was gaping a lot. It was noticeable because the cups hold their shape. If there was a 36 C out there I could try, I would go for it. The bra is very comfortable.

I've always been attracted to the unique colours of this bra. It's much brighter in real than "official" photos show. I'm not fond of neon colours usually, but the neon pink and yellow combined with light purple go so well together. I feel this is the kind of bra that leaves no one indifferent when you see it, you love it or you hate it.
The floral lace is entirely lined with non stretch shiny mesh. This makes the cups easily adapt to the breast shape without losing support. The downside of no stretch mesh on top is that the cups are very slightly gaping on top (just ... a few millimeters) when my arms lean forward, but this is almost invisible otherwise, and the cups don't wrinkle.
The cups are much deeper and more closed on top than the average balconette bra. They're also pretty narrow but the central gore is lower than usual for this shape. As a narrow FoB and very projected shape, I feel so happy to have finally found a balconette that isn't shallow and very open on top. This is so hard to find in 34D and is so comfortable. Finally a bra that doesn't compress my boobs and feels just right.
As for the band, it's true to size but very slightly stretchier than average.
The bra comes with a hipster panty that is true to size.
I think this is a great bra for even and FoB shapes that are narrow and very projected. Definitely not meant for wide or shallow breasts, and probably not great for very FoT shapes.

The band runs on a bit on the smaller side of TTS, I've tried Lily or an older sister cut and found 30 to be extremely tight and I felt I still got some wire distortion in a 32 band. The cups are a bit closed on top, not a major issue, and I think a cup size larger would be too big.

I just cant believe how soft is this bra.. The band is way too large on me in 34, I'd currently need 32 or even 30. It gives more natuaral look than 34D - Cleo » Lucy Balconnet Bra (5851) , and the lace on the top is stretchy enough to fit proably most types of boobs. I bought it while ago, and I was planning to use it on the tightests hooks but it's still too loose.

Fits very like the Cleo Koko Mode Moulded Plunge Bra (7806) (which I also like) but with a much tighter band - I'm normally a 32DD in Cleos but had to sister-size to a 34D in the Neve. Perfect shape for my shallow, FOB, wide-set boobs, lots of support at the side, no gaping anywhere. Doesn't give me as rounded a shape as the Freya Deco Vibe Moulded Plunge Bra (1704) but the fit is probably a smidge better. Great everyday t-shirt bra.

I was unsure of my size, so I ordered this bra in 34D (sister size to my usual 28F) and 34DD (sister size to 28FF), 34 bands due to availability, meaning to alter them down. After trying the bras on, I was still unsure which fit better, so I just kept them both. I still haven´t actually worn them a whole day/night, just tried on. I was waiting till I wore them both more to write reviews, but heck, the reviews have been waiting long enough!

Now that I took pictures, I can see that 34D (28F) is better size for me. It looks like I fill the cups ... completely, there´s no quadboob, and wires sit comfortably. The center gore floats a bit at the very bottom, but tacks elsewhere. I have shallow, wide boobs with tall roots. So if you have similar shape and also have troubles finding strapless bras that won´t cut in at the top, this might be for you!

(review for 34DD: it feels as good on as the 34D, no quading, all good, but in the pics I see that I have "orange in the glass" going on. Meaning that the cups collapse, I don´t fill them at the bottom. When I pull the cups up with my hands, they look good. So theoretically I think it can be worn with the straps to get a good fit. Gore is the same in this size: floats a bit at the bottom, but elsewhere tacks.)

So I gave it a go. It is such beautiful bra! I love roses prints since I purchased my 70F - Comexim » Ingrid Biustonosz (289) . Unfortunately this longline in 34D doesnt fit me well. I'm using the tightest hooks and I have gapping in the cups, where on the bigger side is just tiny gapping. Beside that, the band is comfortable and soft, like silky in touch. Material on the cups is also nice, and inside doesnt irritate me. I wish they have this longline as a normal bra! i wouldnt mind the gapping as its really beaufitul. However, I think that I may try it in 32D - see if the band size will affect the bra overall.

It was my first soft bra, and I needed time to get used to it. Was hard at the beginning, but now it feels good https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />. I don't know, but 75D feels better than 32DD, the cups and wires suits me better and are more comfy. But the band is too lose and need to use it on the tightest hook. Also, there's small wrinkling on my smaller side but it doesn't affect bra overall! Ive almost forgot about this bra, so today I've tried it and I think that I want to get more cleos, mostly Lily in blue, swan or parrots, plus I have back home brand new Marcie that wanted to sell but now I'm thinking to keep it as looks good and is perfect as a summer bra.

I've put on quite a lot of weight over the last 18 months and as a result my bra wardrobe needed an overhaul - starting with this one. My actual band size would normally be 32, but I'd heard the Marcie ran tight so I ordered the 34 and the gamble paid off - it's a perfect fit. So far the only thing I dislike about this bra is that the straps are a bit to widely placed for me - however this is a common issue for me so I'm used to it. Otherwise, I like the fit of this very much, it gives a nice rounded shape and the lace detailing is pretty but doesn't really show under clothes. I might try and find a couple more in different colours.
