I purchased this in the nude colorway. It had been a while (a few years) since I had tried this bra in a 32G and a 30H, both of which I returned and didn't document why. I decided to try it in my usual Cleo size of 30GG in hopes it would work. Nope. This bra is just too wide and shallow for me. Nothing like the Cleo balconette style bras that I have (Meg, Natasha, Maya, Marcie, Alexa, Bella, etc.). Those seem to have much narrower wires and allow for more projection. This bra fits, it just gives me a very ... flattened shape from the side and front profiles. Like someone is pushing down on my boobs from the front. I guess this is called "orange in the glass"? Any way, I don't like the profile. I get this profile from most of the other Panache styles that I have tried (Tango, Andorra Plunge, Olivia). Too bad, because I think it would be a perfect t-shirt bra.

Also of note, this had a tighter size 30 band than other Cleo styles I have tried.

I like this bra. It's the best fitting one I've had in my "real size" (non-VS size, ha). But that's not saying much. But the lady at the lingerie shop thought it fit too. And honestly when I first tried it on, it did seem better than this.

I feel like it flattens me a little bit. And I seem to get some digging in from the gore. Occasionally in to my sternum and sometimes it will sort of poke my breast. I also only bought it a week ago and I can pretty easily and comfortably put it on the tightest hooks.
