Nice colour but too small

This bra is very comfortable and fits well. The band is snug, but not tight, and very supportive. For ladies like me who are noticeably asymmetrical, this bra does a good job of diminishing the appearance of asymmetry both on its own and under clothes. It's also super cute and matches well with polka dot panties!

This Marcie is the first Cleo that I purchased.

Pros: It's really cute. I have it in red and I love how lacy it is.

Cons: Extremely tight band. I cannot wear without an extender. Lots of empty space at the top of my cups. I can't tell if it's supposed to be like this though. Everything about this bra is tight and uncomfortable on me. The gore goes up higher than normal and it is painful. The width of the cups doesn't seem to be wide enough either, or maybe it's just the band is soo tight that everything is cutting into my tissue. ALSO, I am not ... a huge fan of how thin the fabric is. It feels like my nipple is bound to pop out at any second, because it's sitting awkwardly, right on the seam of the bra. (I have found this strange seam to be the case in another Cleo that I tried on at a store one time. Not sure if this is *normal* for Cleos, or what).

Definitely not my bra! For my next Cleo purchase I will size up to a 38

I got this bra in a 36G, trying to find the best size bra for me. Unfortunately the cups were too big. I also found that the wires were slightly too wide for me, and that I had gapping in both the top and the bottom of the cups. I will not be ordering this bra in a smaller size because the gore was a bit wider than I am used to, and I doubt it would be comfortable for me for very long.

I purchased this bra in 36G while I was trying to find the best size bra for me. The 36" band in the Marcie was perfect (although I think the straps are made a little tighter in Cleo, so I might be a 34 in other brands...). However, the cups were too big for me. I will size down to an F and see if that's better because the Marcie was quite a bit bigger than my breast tissue. The center gore is very narrow which I enjoy. I will definitely try to find my proper size in this brand, and maybe get a few different colors too! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I love this bra! It is so comfortable and fits well. It is more comfortable then my Lucy, which fits but is not as soft. The only problem is I am losing weight and I think it is getting too big for me.

I LOVE THIS BRA SO MUCH, WHY DOESN'T IT FIT????


BAND: seems too stretchy to me. Might be the 2-hook? I just tried it on again and it seems to fit, but still feels stretchy, if that makes any sense?
CUP: Apex max depth measured at 13" for me, but I guess others with this size/style measured much less deep? Maybe it was a sewing error, but the depth is more for this than I think it is supposed to be.
CUP HEIGHT: laughably too tall for me. I fit in the bottom half.
STRAPS: As usual for me, too far apart. I'm getting used to it.
WIRES: Seem fine. I didn't wear ... the thing more than 5 minutes each time I tried it on.
APPEARANCE: Absolutely adorable and I want this style to fit me so bad. This may be the first bra I want to show off. Just LOOK at it. The red accents are perfect and the color + the print... so sad it doesn't fit me.

I am determined to find this style in a size that fits me.
This size is not it.

I have this bra in the Malibu blue color. It is very nice looking and makes my boobs look lifted and feel supported. The problem I have is that my breasts are very close set and the gore is too wide for me. Also, the fabric is very stiff and the bottom of the gore digs into my skin and I can't wear it for a full work day without pain.

I love this bra. It's super comfortable, supportive, gives a great shape and has just enough padding to hide the headlights when it's cold out or I'm wearing a very thin/see through shirt.

This is the best fitting molded bra I have found so far for my shape. Cons are that I still have armpit spillage. Higher wings would be nice. I don't think a 36GG would be much better. A second con is that the lace at the top of the cup shows through many shirts. Still, this is a good bra for V-necks, scoop necks, and Henleys.

This is my first bra in my "real size" after spending years in bras that just didn't fit at all. Needless to say, I'm pretty new to reviewing properly-fitting bras, but I'm actually very pleased with this one thus far.

The band's quite snug, but not unwearable. I may pick up an extender until I get used to the snugness. My breasts are quite pendulous yet still pretty full on top, so they fill out the cups almost perfectly. There are no gaps, and I've worn the bra a full day now and the wires don't bother me at all. The straps are great, and the support/shape is, ... well, like nothing I've ever seen on my body before, hah.

The only thing I'm not entirely happy about is the fact that the exposed top part does jiggle a bit when I move. It's probably due to my soft breast tissue. I may need to look into getting a non-balconette next.

Update: Okay, two days wearing the bra and I'm noticing a bit of loose tissue on the side and quadboob up top after hours of wear. I think I may need a cup size larger.

This bra is cute and gives a very round shape but it really does not agree with my shape. The wires and gore dig in no matter what I do. I tried wearing it on the tightest hook, bending the wires, messing with the straps. It just does not work for me.

The cups are waaaay too small. Massive quadboob, the wires dig in on the sides, and the gore doesn't tack. Scooping and swooping lasts until I move, then I have to do it again.

Well made, beautiful pattern, gives a nice rounded shape.

This bra actually felt great. The band was a good size. The straps fit. I had a bit of room in the upper cup tho. I also have very soft breast tissue so my boobs sort fell out in the middle....bending over made them escape like pudding from a bowl....right in the middle.

Extremely cute bra but sadly did not fit. Band seemed a little firmer than Lucy. Will be exchanging for a 36GG

This bra is suuuper gorgeous - makes my boobs look amazing and nicely rounded from the side. When I put it on in the fitting room, it seemed perfect. With a little wear, I've discovered that it can get fairly painful during the day, especially sitting down at work. The underwire tends to painfully poke into the fat above it on my arm. (Sidebar - how on earth is a plus size girl supposed to figure out what's fat and what's breast tissue when scooping into cups?) Likewise, by the end of the day I'd have fairly painful pressure points at the top of the gore in front ... of my chest. However, there was spare room in the channel, and I've been able to push the wire down in front, and squoosh it in flush with the elastic in the channel on the sides, which actually mostly fixes both problems- having that elastic there helps to cushion it instead of it just being wire stabbing through mesh. I'm also hoping with wear it'll chill out a little.
I do also wish the wings were a little larger or firmer, because on a fatter body, it does tend to squoosh in, but not in a painful way.

On the plus side, this is the most secure I've ever felt in a bra - they're not going anywhere! It's also my first non-moulded cup, so I can't really compare that well to others of its ilk, other than that I seem to have a like 1/11 hit rate in the dressing room, and this is the best so far!

EDIT: okay, I've since realized I was totally in the wrong size when I wrote this, an remigrated a lot, so take it with a grain of salt.
