helpfulYou have a tall root and this bra is for FOT, so you get space above the nipple where it wants more volume, but the top edge expects the boob to look like "d" from the side, you have a longer slope up towards your collarbones. Nyla is a Marcie clone I believe and is FOT and fairly narrow, it looks a little narrow for you in which case it's not a good fit for you, too narrow a wire can distort breast tissue.
There's nothing wrong with the cut of the bra or with your breasts, they're just not compatible
Have you tried any half cups?

Also after I settle down into it after an hour or to the lace at the top either gaps or fits perfectly
-
Many half cups are very wide (up to half an inch too wide is acceptable if it doesn't cause other issues), but I think it worth searching for one in the right width to see if you get a better fit. Fauve and Masquerade have made some narrower ones, now Fantasie's premium bras and Panache Black.

I have Ewa michalaks on their way and I wanted to order do masquarade from this site but no one would allow me to ship it to them in the uk and have them forward it to me

helpfulI have this bra in a 30B. My size is much smaller than yours but I have a similar problem with this bra. I think the pink lace top section is not sized properly to the bottom blue portion, it seems much too loose. If you ignore the pink lace part, the blue part is squishing the boob too much. Yet, sadly, if you went up a cup size, the pink lace would be all loose and dangly. Unfortunately I think the bra is just not a winner.

I mean it fits pretty well everywhere else and isn't noticeable under t-shirts so i think its a keeper for now :) glad to know I'm not alone with this fit issue and its most likely a fabric/brand/bra issue not a boob issue with me XD
-
Yes, I still wear mine, too. It gives great lift!

agreed!

helpfulIt seems like (to me) with gapping on top and quad boob where the lace meets the mesh its more an issue of shape than size. Some of the cleo bras have tighter lace panels, some stiffer, etc - I think if you like the fit otherwise you might have good luck with a different panel. Or I have read the Panache bras that are similar cut (I believe the Jasmine could be close, and maybe the Loretta) don't cause the same quadboob-ing between the fabrics. I find however that Panache cups are a bit bigger in general compared to cleo - in my limited experience.

helpfulNot quite, you look so squished! I'm seeing some quadboob going on as well as that wrinkling across the middle, which leads me to think the wires are too narrow for you. I've never tried the Nyla but have read it can be on the narrow side. You say that you have a wide root so this bra may not work for you but first, try sizing up and see if that works.

I don't know how to change my breast shape info XD and ewa's fit me well so i don't think I'm that wide i like wires 5.5-6 in width but I'm worried there will be too much loose fabric at the top if i size up. also that i might get the upside down 7 shape
-
if i sized up won't the cup be too big then? based on measurements
-
I think you have to do a whole new set of measurements to change the breast shape info, maybe? But yeah, I was a bit confused too because I looked at the bras that you had listed and it seems like this one should fit so that was the only thing I could think of. As far as the cup being too large, not necessarily! As long as you sister size, you'll still maintain the same volume :)
-
i have done a new set and it still didn't let me change my shapes. and am i Sizing up in the band or the cup? I thought u were talking about the cup
-
Oh no no. If you did just go up in the cup with the same band then yes, it would be too roomy. Try going down in the band and up in the cup (sister sizing) see if that alleviates the cup being too small/wrinkling.
-
Im still confused how that will help lol? but thanks for trying to explain it to me sometimes i can be quite dense
-
I'm trying to find a way to explain more a bit more in-depth but I personally have nothing, I'm sorry! Maybe someone else will pop in who is more knowledgeable than me with this that can help out. For the bra though, I still stand by it doesn't quite fit right in the cup (which you see yourself) BUT if it's comfortable and not a bother to you, then by all means keep with it!

helpfulI get similar problems in most of the Marcie clones, but Kali and Lucy are much better. They have less upper lace. Maybe they fit you better, too.
Am kinda in the same boat with tall roots -> halfcups are best, but need more projection, which halfcups usually don't have. I was suggested the Freya Marvel, but didn't try it yet.Updated on January 2, 2016 Flag this
I have tried half cups and I'll have to wear it a bit take it off and show u guys where the wire mark ends because it ends quite far away from where my breast tissue ends I usually gravitate towards half cups but most are to shallow for me the bottom of the bra crease and it falls forward and down if that makes sense
