    Lately (the past year or so) I've been wearing a 30G, but the store I ordered this from automatically sizes up for the Lucy, so I was sent a 30GG. It fit fairly well the first few months, but now seems quite worn-out and I find the straps too loose (even at the tightest setting), and most of all, the cups are bagging significantly, although the bagging is thankfully not visible under clothing. However, as a result, my breasts don't look as uplifted in this as they should, and I plan to purchase a new black bra to replace this one as soon as there is a good sale on. The change in fit is likely due to a reduction in my breast size - I re-measured last week and now am measuring as a 28FF or 30F. I also suspect the straps aren't as adjustable as I would want for my petite (under 5'0) height.

    I loved this bra, but 30GG was the wrong size for me, so I never really wore it. The mesh is very breathable and the design is pretty. It also gives a great, rounded shape. The only issue is that the underwires are very pokey. :/

    I get slight quadboob on this, but not enough to make me go up a cup size (this is also the case on my Juna, but not my Darcy). Unlike my Juna, however, the gore seems to want to not tack unless I play with it and push my breasts away from the center; I think this is probably related to the fact that my breasts are relatively close set.

    Either way, it fits almost perfectly once I move my breasts around for a few seconds, so I'd consider it a success.

    This bra seems alright in the cup, but maybe a bit too tight in the band. I've been wearing 32FFs, but decided to try a 30GG since my 32FFs seem small in the cup/ loose in the band. (30" underbust, 39" overbust).

    The problem is the straps. They are so tight, even on the longest setting, and they dig into my shoulders. I think I have a low set root, or maybe just the cups are a little too small.

    Band 30 it's too tight for my 73cm ribcage. The centre gore is soooo wide, I had to make it narrow stright away - bra is much more comfortable now around this part. By taking the gore in, the band got even tighter but I'm going to get extender.
    Band has only 2 hooks but is quite wide, wider the other Cleo Bras (Alexa or Natasha. Straps are wider too.
    IMO Lucy is very more Panache Superbra style then Cleo - it covers more and I feel the same when wearing Panache's Eliza - lovely round shape, not so high like in Alexa but still good lift.
    As usual I'm not the fan of Cleo's looks but the construction is great.

    Edit after wearing it for a bit - Ive got the same problem like with Eliza - the wire is poking under lest armpit - it's just too long.

    First bra I tried in my correct size. Gives good shape and doesn't show too much under shirts. I might try a 28H next time because the band seems to be stretching after a few wears. I like my bands really tight, though. Definitely going to be a style I wear for years to come!

    I read reviews before buying and they all said to go up a cup so I went one cup size up but the cups were still too small. The top of the cup was too tight. The band was also really loose. This one is definitely getting returned. I think this bra would not work out on people with wide roots .

    This is a great bra with excellent support. The edges of the cups lay flat against my breast so there is no cleavage or spilling. The straps are not comfortable. It holds everything tight and grips the rib cage well. I found that the cup runs small so you may want to go up a size. I'm not full on top and still had to go up one cup size. I normally wear 30G in Panache, Freya and Curvy Kate but in the Lucy I had to get a 30GG. The band is true to size. Initially the wires may dig a little bit at the sternum but after wearing it twice, it loosened up and no longer dug. I highly recommend this bra.

    SS12 Yellow "fashion color" version.

    Band length: 75.9cm
    Cup width: 16.5cm
    Cup depth: 34.4cm
    Wire length: 35.2cm
    Cup separation: 2.0cm
    Strap width: 1.5cm

    Quality: 3/5
    Comfort: N/A
    Appearance: 5/5

    Other sizes in this review found here: 30FF (http://bra.pe/R4C/) 30G (http://bra.pe/R4D/).

    I've noticed Panache bras are made wildly different from style-to-style as well as by season. So I got a 30g, a size I thought might work and one cup down and up from it to compare. I am happy to say the 30g works well. The 30ff band is nice but the cups cut into tissue giving a bit of quadraboob. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell if the "30GG" would have been more appropriate: I firmly ... believe it is actually about a 36GG just MISLABELED!!! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_surprised.gif" alt=":O" /> If you look at the size measurements an average band can be about 7" or 16cm smaller than the "band size" to allow for stretch & support. If so, this bra is definitely far too large in both band & cup to be what it says. Sadly, this makes a comparison of all three an impossibility with what I ordered.

    This if the first time I bought the Lucy style because I fell in love with the idea of a bright yellow bra!

    I'll keep an eye out for more colors of this style in the future.

    Measured unstretched before wearing.
    Purchased early-April '12 from Freshpair.
