This bra has turned out to be the bra I currently look forward to wearing the most, despite it being pink (not a color I like) and my also owning the Cleo Lily in the same sizes -- which is typically more true to size and easier to fit. It's just very comfortable and seems to suit my breast shape very well, even though the wires (cup width) are technically not narrow enough for them.

-I own both this bra and the Cleo Lily (sister cut) in the same sizes -- both 34G and 36FF. It's really clear that the Meg's cups are cut slightly deeper, almost (but not quite) enough to say it runs 1 cup size larger. I seem to be between cup sizes (34G/GG or 36FF/G), so the Meg's larger cut actually worked in my favor.

-The wires (cup width) are narrow, but not as narrow as my Lily bras in the same size. It's definitely noticeable as soon as I put it on but it hasn't bothered me, because the wires don't generally poke me (despite my extra side "padding"), and are pretty comfortable. I had to bend the wires of my 34G Lily to conform to my ribcage better, but didn't need to do so with the Meg of the same size.

-Just like the Cleo Lily and most unpadded Cleo bras, the band runs tight. My break-the-tape underbust measurement is 33" and snug is about 35", but this 36 band is just about right. I can easily fasten it on the second tighest hooks, but I haven't needed to yet. I have to wear the 34G version with an extender (for now, probably won't need to for long).

-Also like the Lily: I may technically need even more immediate projection than this bra provides, since it does slide down in the front every once in awhile -- but only by about half an inch to an inch at most. All in all, its immediate projection is good.

--I have this bra in 34G as well, and I've noticed the 36FF's straps are wider and wings are higher. The 36FF's wings are also noticeably higher than the 36FF Lily.
