I love this bra. Only negative thing I notice is that since the top of the cup is not stretch I can get a slight gaping at the top edge with some movements. Super minor to me, and the bra is sooo pretty!

When I owned this bra, it actually fit a bit better than Lily in the same size. I believe I was verging on quadding on the 28H Lily but this was a bit more open on top so it was more forgiving. It was also used, which might have played a part. It definitely made it more comfortable, though.

I no longer own this bra but it was too small for me.

I originally had this in 38FF, but unlike its cousin, the Lily, it was too roomy and tall in the cups for me. The 36FF is a better fit volume-wise, and the bottom and center projection are still great. However, being FOB, I really can't fill out the top (unlike in the Lily, which is more closed on top -- much less wrinkling).
Also, the straps do go long enough for me, but only the back portions are adjustable.

The top of the cups on this are a bit loose but I can't decide if that's me not quite having the right fullness requirements for the top part of this bra or if its a tad big. I think if the top section was stretch lace it would fit so much better than the stiffer lace its actually made out of. Under clothes the slight wrinkling doesn't show much anyway.
This bra is fantastic for immediate projection. Both at the bottom of the cup and at the centre gore. I used to think I couldn't wear taller gores because my boobs were too close together. Turns out I actually can wear taller gores provided the cups are super deep right near the gore. If the cups aren't deep enough my breasts just push the cups/gore away from my sternum.
As with other unlined bras the fabric is a bit scratchier and less comfortable against my sensitive skin.

Cup width is too much for my narrow boobs, and I can't seem to fill out the top even though I should be able to. Maybe a bit too open? Unlike my 32E - Cleo ยป Lily Balconnet Bra (7351) there is a lot of space up there, even for my tall roots. I tried a 30FF since I am straining a bit with the cups on my 32E and could probably do a 30 band, but it looks like 30F might have worked better. I would compare this to the problems I had with the Meg, though, and won't be trying the 30F even if I find it (likely there will be in-cup quadboob). Sad, since the pattern and blue/teal is gorgeous.

This is the same colorway as the Olivia although it says Alexa on the tag. It does not fit me very well (I think) because I have tall roots. My smaller boob is also narrower and because of that makes this bra not work at all on that side. I could pull it off on the other boob, even though there is some wrinkling because the bra wants to cut in when my boob just keeps on going!

Cleo sells the Samba spot Alexa which happens to look like the Bravissimo Olivia. So they look the same but Bravissimo calls it Olivia and Cleo calls it Samba spot. It's got gorgeous polka dots.

I love polka dots. The straps are kind of wide but you know? What else is new?
I like this bra so much I have it in 2 sizes. 28E and 28F. The F cup fits better.
