Didn't fit

This was kind of an unplanned deal, since I thought it might be too closed off on top, but then I heard it's more open on top than the CK Bardot, which is only a teeny bit too closed for me, so when I found it half off on eBay I snagged it, despite it being pink... again....

Overall, not too bad! I think it's a bit too deep overall - despite thoroughly scooping & swooping & the wires feeling firmly planted in my IMF there are tiny wrinkles at the bottom, apex, and quite a bit of extra space on my smaller boob. It's not as bad on my bigger boob. A 28FF would be too closed off I think, or too small. Plus my boobs are pretty sore and full right now, so it might only be good for one week a month haha.

Band is good, wires are good. Shape is Cleo-Apple, which I love. The mesh/lace is wearable, it kind of itches at the gore. I've worn it all day and nothing is digging or making me want to claw it off, yet. I love love love the shape, and am glad I at least tried it so I could experience the much-hyped roundness and lift Cleo unlineds are supposedly known for. I have 2 unlined bras now, my Bardot and this Lucy, and they both give that perky, held up and in and out shape. I doubt I try any other unlined bras simply because my skin much prefers softer material, but this is a solid bra.

Pink colorway

This bra is not owned any more

    You can pinch the lace at the gore and stitch it down a tiny amount to get rid of the gapping.

  • Funny you mention that, I had thought earlier today I could probably do something with that lace!
