Alana in Nude 30K

For this bra I advise to go up 2 cup sizes from your usual Cleo/Panache size and go for your usual band size.
It’s a good basic bra. What I love about it, is the stability & support it gives me. I feel secure and there is no jiggling at all. (Boobs feel like concrete)
It could be quite tricky to find you size in this bra, because the top section of the cups runs quite tight. (which makes it often difficult to work on full-on-top boobs) The solution to this is sizing up 2 cup sizes in my case. It has a fairly narrow center gore for a bra in the K-Cup range. The shoulder straps are wide and fully adjustable.

What I like about it:
-Stable construction
-Good coverage (fabric comes higher than average Cleo Balconette)
-Makes you feel supported and secure (boobs of steel)
-Wires do not come too high under the arms
- wide & fully adjustable shoulder straps
- tight broad band / 3 hooks – back fat minimizing
- center gore is quite narrow - something I need



What I dislike about it:
- top edge of the cups does run quite tight and might cut in if you are full-on-top
- is a bit uncomfy at first, needs some time to break in
- there is not much depth in the cups on bottom, cups are quite shallow towards the underwire
- it might give a pointy look (my solutions to this, size up and tighten the straps)

Comfort: 4 (-1 because the wires getting uncomfy when wearing it during the day)
Appearnace: 5 (I really like the basic /simple but elegant look of it. It comes in pretty fashion colours & basic colours.)
Quality: 5 (so far I can’t complain…)

Overall if you can find the size that works for you in this bra, it’s a good everyday bra.
