    28D

    Fits

    I think I jumped the gun a little bit with the first size I tried on in this bra! I originally was in a 28DD and it fit so well (compared to my ill fitting 32 A's and B's) that I was so excited and thought it was perfect. Thank goodness a Bratabaser (is that a word?) recommended sizing down on the cup size to solve my too-wide strap issue!

    This is truly the best possible fit for me, don't you think so? I wore it all day today, adjusted 0 times, and when I took it off when I got home had no red marks, even from the wide-set straps!

    Today I learned the importance of letting your breasts settle a bit in the cup before deciding whether a bra is too small! Thank you so much cjarasmith https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    • Lovely!!

    • I don't think red marks are necessarily a bad thing, as long as it doesn't cause pain

    • Heh mercury, you're so right! For me in the 28DD, by the end of the day I had painful red marks where the seam was between the cup and the strap since the cup was a little bit too wide for me!

    • Do you find the top edge to show through a lot of tops? I bought Maddie in orange animal print (discontinued) and that top edge is different -- I thought it would be less visible through clothing than what you bought, but it does stick out pretty badly, despite being a perfect fit. I'm wondering if the embroidered top edge is better or worse.

    • Idk why I didn't see this river_wilde , until now, I logged on and batch uploaded like 10 bras.

      Yes the top edge shows under clothes :( Usually I wear this one with loose clothes/thicker fabric like sweaters, or wear a tank top under to hide the top edge.

      My new favorite bra is the Masquerade, Ardour in 28D. It fits perfect as well and stays flat under almost everything!

  2. I love the Panache Porcelain model and I'm pretty sure Maddie draws much inspiration from that iconic t-shirt bra. Maddie is indeed very, very much like the Panache Porcelain Viva; with a a few small differences in shaping and details. First of all, typical to Cleo, the band is stretchier. After my experience with Juna's incredibly unstable band, I ordered 28 in Maddie, instead of my usual 30. Maddie's cups are, again, quite like Porcelain Viva, but Maddie's cups are "open" (similar to Juna only in this respect). Also, Maddie's cups are definitely "padded". If they were even the slightest bit thicker they would feel bulky to me. (I prefer the very lightly lined Porcelain cups). It's highly likely that I will buy more Maddies, but I think the 30DD size will be work better at keeping my boobs from migrating out the sides of the cups. Maddie's band is firmer an tighter than Juna's and overall it feels more supportive.

  3. Cup height (measured up the center outside): 6.25"

    I ordered this in both 28FF and 28G, having read that this model can run small, but now I think I'm toeing the line between 28FF and 28G (or, more accurately, 26G and 26GG) anyway.

    The 28FF gives better (phenomenal!) cleavage for my short-rooted, high-set breasts; the 28G acts more as a full-coverage bra than a half-cup on me but fits better overall, I think. There's no gapping and it seems to follow the shape of my breast better than the 28FF, which feels like it's cutting in at the top a little prematurely, giving me some quadboob and thus enhancing the ... cleavage factor.

    I wish I could have a good fit and good cleavage out of the same size, but I may end up keeping both of these for different purposes!

    The band is nice and snug and the straps are thin and fully adjustable, which is wonderful for my high-set chest. However, I've noticed that the straps start to hurt if I have them as tight as I'd like on most bras (perhaps because they are so thin). I still get excellent support if I loosen the straps, so this isn't an issue.

    The lacy part on the top of the cup doesn't show through tight, thin t-shirts, so this would be a good alternative to the Freya Deco Half-Cup, especially if you're sized out of that like me--I've been looking for something like this for some time.

    Also, I have noticed that the thin fabric on the outside of the molded cup seems to catch on EVERYTHING--fingernails, jewelry, etc. I don't think this will affect the look of the bra and I can only tell when I get close (or when something catches), but it is something to keep in mind.

    28E

    Didn't fit

    I normally wear a 30D, and based on reviews went one band size down and one cup size up with the Maddie. The cups are STILL too small, which is incredible to me. The band fits comfortably even if it seems to be riding up a bit in the photo (that's from me desperately yanking on the straps trying to give more space to the top of the cups so I could lie to myself about it fitting), and the cups are incredibly soft, so I'd be willing to try a 28F if not for the fact the gore is too wide as well. It sits flat, but has to push my breast tissue out of the way to do so, which only serves to cause even more quadboob toward the center of the cup.
    All of this is a shame, because the bra is VERY comfortable otherwise, looks quite well constructed to last a long time, and I am still on a quest for a skin-tone t-shirt bra that fits just right.

    • Like you, the gore was too wide for me also. If you are open to wireless options, Wacoal How Perfect wireless has space for center projection, rounds beautifully, and is surprisingly supportive. Its band, however, runs small. And, if you have projected breasts, sizing up in the band helps, too.

    • The Maddie's way too shallow for you to fit in this size I think. Do you have breast tissue UNDER the gore? If not, sizing up to 28F could still work. I have a Simone Perele foam cup (caresse 3D, in case you're interested, but it is much pricier than Cleos unfortunately) in which I shamelessly sized up to a cup volume that's technically way too big, but it works to get the projection I need at the center. The sides of the cup are empty but since it's foam that's not visible and causes no discomfort.

    • wendybien , when I first started trying on bras at the beginning of my proper fit journey, I tried on a Simone Perele foam cup and it felt absolutely amazing and looked great, but the 30 band was loose and that was on the tightest hook. The lack of band support just isn't worth the price point. I'd rather save up for a 65F or 70E Comexim.

    • oh, sorry, I just ended up going off on a tangent there to give an example of how I had sized up to fit into a bra that is technically more shallow than my shape calls for. I didn't mean that I wanted to recommend the SP for you. What I was suggesting was trying a 28F in this Cleo Maddie, because it looked to me like the main problem was a lack of space on the inner upper quadrant rather than a wide gore. The Maddie's gore isn't very wide at all.

    • My breasts are quite close together. Any gore wider than .5" is sitting on my breast tissue if it is taller than a plunge.

    • Maddie has a strange shape as far as I'm concerned. The cups are very wide and shallow, yet the sides are short, so it seems to be designed to push everything out the sides. 28DD - Cleo » Maddie Moulded T-shirt Bra (7201) In addition to the wide, shallow cups, the center gore is SO wide and the straps are ridiculously far apart. It must be designed for larger rib cages.

    It fits well. Since I'm slightly FoB it's half an inch to an inch of showing my aerola on my larger side otherwise. I wish the straps were closer together. It's a solid bra with lovely construction. I like the very delicate pattern even though it's nude and hides well under clothes. No headlights.

    This bra works well for shallow breasts, but the cups do run small so order a size up. The straps are very short, so if you have a long torso or low set breasts, this will probably not work for you.

    I really love this bra! It is the most comfortable panache/cleo bra I've tried. The Gore is not too high or wide for me which is often an issue I have with panache/cleo. I love the shape it gives too. Unfortunately this is a discontinued style. If anyone knows of they have a current version of this or something similar please let me know!

    I do sometimes get a small gap near where the strap and cup meet depending on the position of my arms but it can't be seen through clothes and I have a dent in my breast tissue right there so this is sometimes unavoidable, so I'm not counting that as a fit issues, especially because this bra is so freaking comfortable.

    The band is not as firm as many panache bands but it is tts.

      Thanks! Gna go look. If I can find 1-2 more this bra will definitely become my daily driver.

      Lexi had a similar shape and is also discontinued but there are still some available on ebay.

      Thanks. I'm a little unsure if the lexi will work for me. I've heard it was more shallow than the maddie but when I compare the measurements they are almost identical. It does seem like the lexi is more closed on top though. So I worry that it'd cut in. Might be worth a try if I can find it from somewhere with easy returns or through ebay with a seller who accepts returns but eBay is always risky.
      I did buy another maddie on ebay though. In pink because why be reasonable and buy the nude that I really need when I can get bright pink! 😂

      I found with my extra wide, & generally tall roots that Lexi is really good for short breasts and rather open on top with a little upepr shaping to keep one from spilling out, whereas Maddie has the right proportions for tall root but is just too tall for a short projected breast. For anyone who needs a lot of direct projection from the wire out rather than an extended depth only at the nips, it would have been perfect if there was something in between both of these styles. If you are in a normal to narrow root width the upper is less likely to curl inward as hard from pressure at the bottom of the cup straining to deal with a wide full root. if you are more Omega it could work really well in the right measureme
      nts.

      I got a little lost in that comment. You're saying the lexi is better for tall and narrow roots?

    • Lexi is not narrow at all. I'd say that Maddie is the narrower and more full on top friendly between both styles- it has a smaller wire that's more U shaped and expects a front-facing & vertically deep breast that might be more self supporting. The upper cup on Maddie isn't as wide as Lexi, so I've found that it will also cut in if it's too small. It reminds me somewhat of the old VS dream angels but more supportive. I'd also venture Maddie's shape is closer to Cleo Mimi which I put up with till I got Comexims and abandoned all molded styles. Anyhow in all the sizes I've tried of both Maddie & Lexi, the Lexi has a longer wire that's short for it's size, and the cups look built for a shorter, wider breast; the upper hem on top flips back inward a little which seems like it is for someone whose immediately full with short or shallow roots; someone with a lot of apex projection that could benefit from having a little more containment on top. The foam felt more resistant than Maddie but I might have worn my Maddies to death and softened them up. Lexi is closer to the Panache Tango's shape. I'd only heard of Lexi in this last year so most of my experiences with it are during a long growth period where immediate depth and a very projected lower cup made all the difference in how the top of a style would fit, or not fit.

    Bottom was too shallow (I’m too immediately projected). Very uncomfortable and painful. Cups were too wide and large, straps too far apart, gore too high and dug painfully into my sternum.

    It's hard to make a beige T-Shirt bra cute. But Cleo managed to surprise me. They somehow made a grandma like bra design into something actually adorable. With the stripes, lace trim and button at the center gore, I would not be embarrassed to be caught in this bra.

      What part of this doesn’t fit? The band?

    • The straps are too wide and the gore won't sit flat, if it did, I'd be quadding.
