I am a big fan of my 32DD - Cleo » Maddie Moulded T-shirt Bra (7201) and was looking forward to trying this as it's based on the same shape. The fit feels quite different, though, as it's more closed in the top and (I think) runs very slightly smaller in both cup and band - my usual 32DD dug in at the top, felt tight round my ribs, and just generally looked slightly too small. 32E seems a lot better so far - a tiny bit of gapping in the centre (annoyingly most of my fullness is somewhere around my armpits) that goes away if I do some assiduous scooping, and the band feels more comfortable as more of me is in the cups. Slightly unsure about where the gore sits (I get pinchy gore problems in non-plunge bras if the fit isn't absolutely perfect) but I'll see how it survives a day's wear. Fabric is absolutely gorgeous - super smooth navy with lovely pink trim.

This is an absolutely gorgeous bra that I bought completely on impulse, and I now want to own pretty much the entire Mimi Holliday range. I'm quite shallow/wide rooted and the cups are *perfect*. It's incredibly comfortable (wore it all day on first wear and no problems), looks great, and the fabric is BEAUTIFUL.

If I have any quibble with it it's that I think it might be even more flattering if it was a little lower (the older model Super Plunges are lower cut/don't have as much lace above the top of the actual cup) but that's a minor detail. LOVE.

Lovely bra for shallow/wide-rooted girls. Extremely flattering and comfortable, perfect fit for me in this size. Fabric is gorgeous - zingy bright pink silk!

My love affair with Mimi Holliday plunge bras continues! This is an extremely comfortable, flattering bra for those of us who are shallow/wide-rooted. It's quite low-cut but doesn't gape/spill, there's enough light padding to avoid nippliness and give a nice shape, the colour and fabric are BEAUTIFUL.

This is one of the nicest bras I have ever owned. I'm a bit hit and miss (largely miss) with the regular Curvy Kate line - I'm shallow, FOB, and quite widely spaced and CK bras tend to gape a bit in the middle on me and/or dig in at the gore, but the (v shallow) cups on this are perfect. I even get a bit of push-up! I am now tempted to buy the rest of the set.

The Maddie is probably my favourite bra right now, I have it in several colours. I'm shallow, wide-spaced, FOB, and it gives me a lovely, rounded shape. Really comfy too. Only issue is that if/when the band stretches out the gore rides up and digs in a bit, though that's fixable by going to the next set of hooks.

(edited to add that I've realized it's a wee bit tight in the cup if I wear it just before my period as it's quite shallow, might be better in a 32E that week...)

Perfect simple plunge t-shirt bra for those of us with shallow, wide-rooted boobs. Extremely comfortable, nice rounded shape, pretty colour. About the only downside is that I needed to cut out the size label before it scratched a piece of my back off (do they make them out of sandpaper?), but given that that isn't a vital part of the bra...

I am normally a huge Mimi Holliday fan but this one just didn't quite fit. Both the straps and band were weirdly long in my usual 32 (I had the straps fully tightened and they were still a bit loose), and the cups in my usual DD gape very slightly near the gore on my smaller side, I think the balconette style isn't as good on me as the brand's plunge and moulded styles. I got it at a heavy discount and the colour and fabric are fabulous so I may keep it, but compared to my other Mimis it's a bit ... meh.

This is a pretty bra, good quality, very comfortable, but just doesn't look great on me - the straps are too close together so make it look like my boobs are pointing into my armpits, and the cup gives me an odd squarish shape. Didn't keep.

I love this bra! The fit is absolutely perfect on me (FOB, shallow, kind of wide-set), it's extremely comfortable, gives a nice shape with a bit of lift, doesn't show through clothes (unless I wear a white top), and I love the jaunty orange and pink bows. V sad they seem to have discontinued this, I've just bought a Cleo Christina Balconnet Bra (7441) on Ebay on discovering that it's the same cut.
