First thing's first: the band is very tight compared to the other 30 bands I own. I've been using with the extender hooked onto the tightest set of eyes, so it feels like as if the bra came with 4 sets of eyes. In my opinion this feels nice and firm, kind of like the Cleo Meg when I first got it. When the extender is hooked on the second set of eyes, it also feels firm, although I haven't worn the bra all day at this setting so I can't write what it feels like. I will update this review when I get the chance to do so.

Would I recommend going up a band size? Probably not, since the stretched band of the 32E is about 5cm bigger than the bands of my well fitted bras. Although if you have a chance to try on both, you'll be able to make a better judgement on which fits you better.

The cups fit nicely. My breasts are fuller on top, and with this bra I don't get any cutting in at the tops of the cups. The shape is also nice and rounded with good lift. I would say compared to the Cleo Lizzie, it feels like there's less breast coverage with the cups. Overall, I feel well supported. I haven't had any problems with pokey underwires, but I'll probably need to bend the centre gore outwards as with my other bras I own.

Stylewise, I like the print a lot, especially the mesh portion. I think the colours go well together, and I agree with cbear that the clouds remind me of Super Mario clouds. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> My only real complaints are:

- I wish the cups were a mesh material like the Cleo Lucy and Lizzie. I just like mesh for some reason.

- The tag on the back is really annoying. The bra itself feels comfortable but the tag does not.

Update: I wore the bra yesterday with the extender hooked on the second set of eyes and I found that the bra was comfortably snug, I would say slightly more comfortable than with the extender hooked on the tightest set of eyes. Just for fun, here's the bra's stretched band measurement with the extender attached.

Tightest setting (like having 4 sets of eyes instead of 3): 76.5cm (approximately 30")
Second set of hooks (like having 5 sets of eyes instead of 3): 78cm (approximately 30 3/4")
Loosest setting (like having 6 sets of eyes instead of 3): 80cm (approximately 31.5")

Update2: I've been wearing the bra with the extender on the loosest setting so I feel that I should have bought the 32E instead.

This bra is not owned any more
