Bra fitting help » Is this a good fit?
Cleo » Lily Balconnet Bra (7351) » 34F 34:7
Issue resolved
I totally forgot to mark this fit request as resolved.
Lily is still my best fitting bra. Ewa Michalak HM also works for me.
So I would say I have to look for immediate projection and rather short cups, narrow if possible.
I guess my roots being pretty short is the reason why Freya balconies don't fit me, even if they are supposed to fit narrow FOB breasts.
Original problem
Since I had some fit issues with Tango and Marcie (wrinkling at the bottom, wrong shape) I ordered Lily.
I think it is a fit, but I am not too sure.
Does it provide enough immediate projection?
Is the cup big enough?I like the shape it gives me under a t-shirt, but there is a hint of in-cup quadboobing which gets more as I fasten the straps.
If it is a fit, can you mention other bras to try for me?
I would like to find some more adult designs. And something that does not show under semi-sheer tops, e.g rather nude colour and not too much lace and embroiderie. And something that doesn't show under low-cut necklines

This looks like a good fit to me. Maybe try Panache Olivia? It's more adult looking but similarly smooth.

Looks wonderful! Try searching by measurements and input the Lily's measurements. You will see what else is available with similar cut and proportions.

Bella and Ellis are both very similar in cut/shape and sizing. They are both also Cleo bras. Cleo unfortunately doesn't do a lot of nudes. I actually had good luck in the Jolie sizing up a cup and it was relatively invisible under shirts. On me the magenta / orange almost works as a nude. The orange stripe shows up depending on the shirt.

I had the slight in-cup quadding in the Lily as well, and found Floris to be a very similar, better cut. The construction is more firm, and it has 3 hooks instead of 2. Floris doesn't have a nude colorway, but the current one is at least lighter in color.

I really like this bra. I love the contrasting colours it looks really feminine although your right that it would show under sheer tops. I think by looking at your pictures that it is a good fit for you. There are so many brands that would offer you the same kind of bra but in a smooth nude style just use your mesurments to find the one you like. I hope this has helped you .
