best for even or slightly full on bottom breasts. extremely close set breasted women will probably find this bra uncomfortable.

I bought this bra through Amazon because currently the only bra that I have that fits is a Cleo Lily 28GG and this was recommended as being the most similar. I have a little bit of gaping at the top of the Lily, and I had the same on the Lucy...but when I brought my shoulders back to kind of smooth that out, it cut in just a little bit near the gore of my larger breast. Even starting in the second set of hooks, this band didn't feel very supportive to me. Sadly, I think this will be a return.

ihan ok kotiliivit. hyvä ympärys mutta ei tee ihmeitä muodoille. aika mukavat, ei parhaat muttei pahimmat

Love it! This fits exactly as expected. Marcie is my best fit, and this is no exception. I ordered the babydoll version with the intent of removing the excess fabric, so I could have my favorite bra in black (for half the price of the just-released bra-version). I sister sized down because my usual size was not available. It still fits, although and extender may prove useful.

Really wish this bra fit better because I really like the simplicity of it and that the straps are fairly narrow! But I think even if I got the right size, this most likely wouldn't be the best shape for me.

This is one of my best fitting bras! but it still doesn't quite fit. The wires are too wide and I can't fill the bottom of the cup.

Cute print, nice narrow gore, decent projection, softest material of any Cleo bra I've tried. I thought this one would be a pretty good shot for me, since it's often recommended for even fullness, short roots, and lots of projection. Unfortunately, it cuts in on top: everywhere on my larger boob, only towards the center on the smaller. I may try a 28H if I can find one for cheap, but the quadding on my larger breast is so pronounced that I'm not sure going up only one cup size would fix it, and a 28HH would likely be too big everywhere else. I previously considered myself only slightly FoT, but I think I'm too FoT for Lily. (Have I been super FoT this entire time and just never noticed, since my most obvious fit issues are usually caused by too-shallow cups? Or maybe my roots are tall, even though I always thought they were short? brb, having boob identity crisis)

My first Bra That Fits, huzzah! My only complaints are a bit of gapping in the top of the cup (negligible, really), and the straps being a bit wide-set for my narrow shoulders.

The 28 band fits me snugly on the loosest hooks, and despite it leaving red marks, I can wear it all day without any discomfort. I'm not sure about the cup size in relation to other brands and styles, but it works wonderfully for me. The cut is also ideal for me in that it doesn't cut into my armpits like several others I've tried.

I was a bit leery of the magenta/orange color combo (I'm used to wearing mostly beige bras), but I just had to try the Lily, and it was the only one I could find in stock anywhere. I probably won't ever have the courage to wear it under anything sheer or white, but I'm so happy to have finally found a properly-fitting bra that I'll gladly wear it with just about anything else.

This the the best fitting bra I own. I find it similar to the Confettit bra from Panache but not nearly as wide, or tall on the sides. I'm FOB and this perfectly encapsulates all my tissue without any gaps, or digging in.

Fits really well, for a bandless bra. I had issues with this same cut in a 30G, so perhaps it's the smaller band that saves it this time.

The cups are narrow when laid flat but because of the bandless style, they distort and are wider when worn. Normally this would be very painful for me, but somehow, in this one, it's not. My full all over even boobs fill out the cups nicely without being cut into or spilling out anywhere. I wore it for a full day when I got it and I had no issues beyond having to hike it up once in a while because it crept down my V-shaped ribcage a little more than banded bras do. The shape is typical Cleo round and uplifted.

I like the deep pink with lime accents. I interpret the embroidery as something in between flowers and fireworks. Some of it is white, so it will show through light coloured tops.

Cups and uplift were great for an unpadded bra, can't really give a fair review as the back was a bit big (considering im more bordering on a 26 / 4 band)

I don't think the wires are wide enough and are distorted from my tissue pulling them back. This is causing the cups to be pulled back and not have enough projection in the bottom of the cups which created a line. The band feels snug, but not too tight.

The coral color is beautiful for Neve and the double bow with a heart charm on the gore is adorable. The scallop trim is also a nice detail. However, this bra doesn't fit me. The cups are too shallow at the bottom, forcing my boobs up, which gives me some very slight quadboob at the top. The wires are the perfect shape and width for my breasts, except they go too high in the armpits and poke me. I love that the straps are stretchy all the way through, but they're not very soft and they can dig in. The band runs a little tight, but it's good for true 28's or 26's. I'm a true 28 and it's a little tight on me, but it's too loose with an extender. Neve overall reminds me of a Victoria's Secret bra, except a better fit. It's not perfect, but it works if I'm wearing a t-shirt or clingy fabric. You can't even tell I have any fit problems under a shirt.

I am a fairly even and projected breast shape. I have average-to-narrow roots with a slight omega shape. My best fitting bra is a Cleo Lily in 28GG, though I think a 30G would be more comfortable in terms of band length.

Has a nice rounded shape even to slightly full-on-bottom breasts. Construction is solid, and the purple colour is gorgeously saturated and full. It's a really great bra all around. Design isn't necessarily anything special, but it's a great everyday sort of bra.

The bra sometimes has a little gaping at the top, but during the times of month when I'm fuller the cups are completely filled. The placement of the straps seems to flatten my boobs on the side, pushing everything towards the center. This can look kind of awkward. The shape is not completely round but kind of flattened. Like a pushed against a wall effect. The band is also a tad loose on me and it did stretch out quickly (I'm wearing it on the tightest hooks almost everyday after about a month), but I'm closer to a 26 and I prefer very tight bands to help support ... my breasts. It could also be that I wear this bra everyday because it is the only one I have that fits me well (I've ordered two more, a Cleo Neve and a Tutti Rouge Betty both in 28GG, so we'll see how those go). The polka dots and lace are visible under very clingy fabrics and sometimes you can see a little nipple, which I guess is to be expected.

Other than those slight issues, the bra is great! It's extremely comfortable once it's broken in. But beware, this did have a break in time for me. When I first got it the gore poked me and left little blisters. That was probably a combination of me not being used to higher gores and that the bra was brand new. But now I LOVE my Marcie! The fabric is not itchy, nothing is poking, nothing is gaping, nothing is digging in, and only slight ride up. It's wonderful to have a bra that fits!

Just got this bra- a really good fit for slightly FoB to even!

I had a Lucy in a 28G which was cutting in and wanted to check if a bigger size would help that. The 28GG still cuts in at the top along with all the other issues I had with the bra.

Updated on May 17, 2014 Flag this

This bra is a *tiny* bit full on top for me. There are only minor wrinkles (if you can even truly call it a wrinkle) which go away if I stand very straight with my shoulders back. Overall, it's very nice. I haven't had any issues with poking or the like.

It seems to be good for an even-bordering-on-full-on-top shape.

Updated on May 08, 2014 Flag this

I am even, narrow and projected. The Cleo Lily works well on me; the Lucy really does not.

The cups are way too tall and too wide on me. I think the band is a little small on me as well, which made the gore quite stabby as well.

~Purple colourway, SS2013~
Also see my review in Pink/white, 30G, from SS2011: http://bra.pe/XIJO/

Heh I'm stumped. This Lucy fits much better than my pink and white 30G Lucy. I don't even understand. I'm mostly going to be comparing the differences in this review so check out the previous one if you're interested. Pictures forthcoming.

First major difference: the upper section is much more closed in the purple than in the pink when the straps are comfortably adjusted. Purple fits me almost like a second skin, just like my Marcie (bra.pe/XJIc/). It does have the potential for quadboob on my larger breast but only if I push my shoulders back ... a whole lot.

Second: the bottom has enough projection and the bra doesn't slide down. The elastic on this one is also more comfortable for some reason. I am using an extender right now but I was able to wear it fairly comfortably without the extender. I do prefer looser bands and straps and I don't want to stretch this one out too quickly.

Other differences from 30G - straps are thicker, wider and more padded. The hooks at the back are spaced further apart (but still only two https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> whai Cleooo).
