Didn't fit

I am center full with touching breasts , short roots and need a ton of immediate projection. I probably am functionally full on bottom now, but in my perkier days I probably was even.

This bra accommodates the immediate projection very well . I have no discomfort in the front underwires which is a rarity for me because the wires stay in my IMF.And I have no wrinkling at the side of the cups like I have in almost all bras.
It is better than most on the center projection, although I probably could use a little more. One wire sits barely on breast tissue but then this happens in almost all bras.

Gores are always a problem for me. This one is too tall and a little too wide for me. Anything taller
than 2 inches is too tall.

This is a really aesthetically a pretty bra. I got the teal.
It seems to be a little higher quality than some of the Cleos. The band is a satin type fabric.
I like the ridged strap although I wish they were fully adjustible. The strap is only adjustible in the back to just below the shoulder. The strap is padded over the shoulder.

All cleo straps are a little wide on me and this is no exception.

While this is not a perfect fit, it is one of the better ones because of such good immediate projection. And so I'll probably keep it. It is such a relief to find a bra with wires that stay in my IMF , that I'm willing to overlook
the other more minor fit issues.

The shape in a t shirt is not as round or quite as perky as some of the Cleos. It is a more natural shape.
