Didn't fit

Fit: This bra fits smaller in the cups than my other Cleo, a Marcie. It seems truer to size. The top is a little closed off but my larger breast doesn't quad much because the cups are so high. Instead the gore doesn't tack. In fact, it fits like a very tall wide Curvy Kate Bardot. There's a lot of bra here but I don't feel swallowed up like in the Marcie. Still, the wide tall wires are all up in my pits. The band is quite stretchy and I don't need an extender.

Look: It's basically Barbie's dream bra. It's hot pink with baby pink accents and a tiny leopard print bow. The fabric is this soft textured stuff. The hooks and eyes are the same baby pink. It appears better made than the Marcie was. No weird lumps. The cups are a little conical on me. Not the nice round Marcie shape. Could be related to fit but I'm in the largest size they have so I can't size up to tell.

Comfort: I can't comment because I didn't wear it long. It seems to be similar to Panache quality comfort. Certainly the materials are soft, not itchy.

For a similar fitting bra, see Cleo Della .

    "Barbie's dream bra"--giggling :-) :-) Oh how I hope the scaling differences factor in my favor. And, how I wish Panache would narrow their wires in the larger volumes.
