Didn't fit

This actually fits me similarly to Cleo Marcie (think more people have said so, but I agree).
While I have a couple of issues, I'm still pleased with this bra.

- The cups come up pretty high, with the risk of fabric showing over low cut tops
- Center gore is also a bit high and pokes me
- Band is slightly larger than your average 30 band
- larger cup fits great, but minor wrinkling on my smaller side.

I had the same gore trouble with Marcie, bending it outwards did help. So I'll try the same with Colette.
And while the band is less tight than my average bra, it's still supportive - more so than Marcie because of the 3 hooks.
Also as always, I would prefer closer set straps, but the chafing seems minimal (after 1 full day of wearing).

+ General shape is good! Up front and rounded (:
+ Really love the color
+ Quite comfortable to wear

Edit: more cons than pros for this bra, I should sell it. Noticed a pretty bad projection issue.
- Not enough projection; wires won't stay in IMF
- Cup edge has zero stretch / give, causing some quad risk

This bra is not owned any more
