My love - hate relationship with Cleo

I *HATE* Cleo bands, and I can't stress this enough.
They are always too loose,
they strech out even more,
they have ONLY 2 ROWS OF HOOKS,
and they give even skinny ladies some back bulge!!! Dont't just take my word for it, check out the pictures.
And the lucy band... is by far the worst I've seen.
I think I speak for everywone when I say - We'd be willing to pay more money for that amazing Cleo shape WITH a propper snug, sturdy, back fat minimising band!!!
I actually wrote to Panache about this, and am starting to think we need an organised action to adress this issue.
Is anyone with me on this?

  • Hmm...interesting that you say this. I only own one Cleo, but the band is one full inch smaller than I'm used to wearing (Freya/Fantasie). The band also sits lower on my back, giving me less back bulge than my typical Freya bras.

  • My turquoise and coral George, my Sasha, my Chloe, my Molly, my Eleanor have all been among the tighter 28-bands I've tried. Yes, Bonnie and Lucy is definitly looser, but there is a whole bunch of tighter bands as well. :)

    And these bras have not stretch much and the backs have not been cutting in. They might do on some, but on me they are great. :)
