I really like this bra, it was one of my first bras in (or at least close to) the right size. It doesn't quite agree with my shape, but it's still comfortable and is a bra I like to wear. Also, it's super cute! It comes in a lot of fun colors and the lace is a happy medium between a sheer bra and a padded one. A few issues I have:

-Not a great choice for full-on-top/wide and flat boobs, but it works better than most. The quadraboob is hardly noticable, and the bottom of the cups are filled fine. I also have some slight puckering in the middle, as it is slightly too deep for me.

-It's a balconette, so it's not great for close together boobs either, but if you bend the wires out a bit it'll work okay.

-The band is very tight, more true to a 28 band (or maybe smaller). I suspect this would work well for people who need 26 bands. I haven't totally figured out how certain brands size up to each other, as other 30s I've tried on/owned (including the Cleo Jude and some Freya bras) are too big for me but this Cleo 28 is too small. I have to wear an extender on the last hook, even though most 30s ride up and don't support me even on the tightest hook. It could be the color/fabric, too: this one is in the Bravissimo exclusive 'Lime" color (which truthfully is more like highlighter yellow). I'm not sure, but I think a 30F would work better for me!

-As I said above, the "Lime" color does not look at all like the pictures, which show it as a dainty light green. It looks highlighter yellow, or maybe spring green. I still think it's cute, but I imagine it would put some people off, who expected a pastel rather than a neon.

That all being said, I still like it a lot and plan on keeping it for a while, although I don't think I'll buy this style again at least until I grow out of this one!

This bra is not owned any more
