I have quite close-set breasts with only one finger space in between them, and have never had a bra tack on me until this one. Unfortunately, as I am quite petite (5'1"/155 cm) it digs in ever so slightly on my sternum, although I still need to confirm whether this is an issue with the shape or the band size.
The cup fits perfectly, with the wire perfectly hugging my IMF and the cup itself being filled in all the right places by my breast, but the lace on top gaps slightly, even more so when moving around. I will be ordering a 30E and 32DD and E ... to see if these fit better.
Some further information about my breast size and shape. My 5 measurements according to the calculator from r/abrathatfits are ~28.75 snug underbust, 26.25 tight, 35 standing bust, 36 leaning bust, and 34.25 lying bust. I am fairly projected, my shape is evenly full, and I believe I have average roots.
In terms of appearance, this is a really cute bra. It might be a bit flashy for some, but after years of granny bras, I welcome the loud pattern. It's a really pretty turquoise blue with a floral print and magenta lace/mesh trim on top, and is perfect for people who've always wanted those cutesy polka dot and floral bras when walking past the bra section at stores but were disappointed when they only went up to a D cup.

Like my Cleo Pixie, this bra fits me almost perfectly. It is just slightly less projected than my Pixie, but this has very minimal effect on the look and shape of my breasts when I wear it. I only notice a slight quad-boob effect right around my time of the month, when everything feels a little tighter!

I have quite projected breasts for my 30F shape, and this bra does a nice job of encapsulating all my breast tissue and projecting it forward. I would consider myself an even/FOB shape (and rate myself a 2/5 on the /r/abrathatfits fit guide over on Reddit). The straps never slip, the back never rides up too high or too low, and I still have room to adjust both the straps and the hooks as the bra gets older.

It is another sturdy excellent make from Cleo in my opinion!
