  1. This bra is a very good fit!

    My shape: full-on-bottom, full in the center, close set, average width roots, short roots.

    The band is true to size and I can comfortably fasten it to the first hook. The wires are average width and they feel shorter than Cleo Lily Balconnet Bra (7351) . The wires usually pokes my underarm in Cleo bras, but it is not as bad for Hettie. The gore is a little bit lower than Lily too.
    The cups seem to be true to size, The bottom part of the cup is non-stretch, while the top is made of stretch lace, with a ... layer of black mesh for GG cups and bigger. I like this second layer under the stretch lace, it makes it more solid. I believe it also prevents in-cup quading. My left breast is definetly a GG, while the right might be a H. I believe 30GG is the right size for me, it fits my short roots better as the wires ar not as long.
    The straps are wide-set, but not as much as Cleo Marcie or Lily. They are not fully ajustable because of a light padding at the shoulders. The straps are made of a nice fabric that has a nice texture.
    Wearing this bra, my breast have a more 'natural' shape not as rounded as wearing the Lily bra. I wound not say that it's pointy either.
    In my opinion, this bra is very comfortable as the fabric is softer than Marcie, and the wires shorter than Lily.

    • Shorter wires and softer materials--I like these characteristics, too. :-) Thanks for your review :-)

    Didn't fit

    I bought this together with the 30F to compare and this was more successful in terms of fit. Not much to say about the looks, other than I do like it. I like blue, and I like that the straps is a brighter blue and there’s a bright pink bow for contrast. I do wish the cups didn’t have the black overlay since I already have enough black bras.

    In terms of fit, it’s very similar to the Pixie I own. It has the same spandex-like material for the band and it’s also a bit tight for me, I’ll be wearing an extender until it loosens up. ... Cups fit similarly and gives a nice rounded shape. I like that it has stretch lace on the tops of the cups which prevents digging in on the top edge if you're fuller on top. It doesn’t have a second layer of mesh so it will actually stretch. I’m not sure if it's the same in the larger sizes, but in this size range it didn’t.

    The wires are a bit problematic for me. I generally don’t do well with high gores as they tend to dig in and my boobs sit close together. I’ve already bent the wires out, but the bra still requires some breaking in before it’ll really be comfortable. The width of the wires is ok.

    Overall, I like this bra and the shape it gives, but it will require breaking in before it’ll be comfortable.

    I really, really wanted this one to work! I love the print on the stretch lace. Unfortunately, it needs a fair bit more inner/upper fullness than I can provide. If you have tall roots or are upper full, this may be a good fit for you.

    The bra fits me & is comfortable for everyday wear but the band is too wide near the side of my armpits for my taste.

    Fits

    The stretch lace makes the fit on this very forgiving! I think I would be better off going up to a 28GG based on a bit of quadding viewable only from the side, but the lace keeps it in check and looking smooth. It is very comfortable and gives a nice, upright shape. I wasn't sure about the straps, but they are quite comfortable actually.

    Fits

    I'm very projected and this bra works well to accommodate that, although I also lean towards being full on bottom and have slight trouble filling out the lace at the top if I'm not standing/sitting straight with my arms to the side. However, like the Cleo Marcie, it's not a big problem with comfort and at worst it just looks a little weird without a shirt on when my arms are drawn forward. The underwire, gore, and wings near the side of the cup can be a bit pokey, but it's ultimately not so bad and mostly serve as minor annoyances instead of causing pain. This has also improved over time so I wonder if it might have just been a bit stiff when it was new.

    Trying this again four years later lol. It's a little too deep on my larger side, but not bad. The lace folds on my smaller side, would consider adding a little tuck if the wires weren't so wide and firm.

    Didn't fit

    I really want to love the Cleo Hettie. It's super cute in black, band is comfortably firm but not painful, it gives me a great shape. I sometimes struggle to get enough depth at the wire, but there's enough here. I don't quite fill out the lace at the top if I'm slouched, but if I sit up straight it lays perfectly. The only problem is that the straps are too wide and chafe my armpits. I can't tell yet if it's something that will fade with wear or become increasingly unbearable, but I hope it's the former.
