White colourway:

One of my first "well-fitting" bras, and I'm not sure I would purchase it again, knowing my shape requirements better now than I did then.

I require immediate projection at the base of the cup, which Lucy has because it's a FOB-friendly bra; however I also need immediate projection at the gore, to cope with inner fullness, and Lucy's cup is quite shallow in this region. It also has far too wide a gore for me; it ends up twisting up double on itself to try and make room. By the end of the day, the shallowness near the gore and the wide gore have lost the battle with my inner fullness and the cups get pushed down in the centre and so outwards at their lower outer corner, particularly on the side of my smaller breast, resulting in the underwire digging and chafing at my ribs.

Wires are wide. Band runs the loosest of my unpadded Cleos -- Marcie and Lily run tighter by approximately 1 set of hooks. (I'm a between-bander in unpadded Cleo. In the Lucy I use one extra set of hooks care of an extender. For Marcie and Lily I use two extra sets of hooks.) Gives the uplifted, rounded shape Cleo is famous for.
