  1. Love this bra! Can't believe how high it gets my boobs! Magic! Also how cute it is!

    Straps are borderline too short. I have to size up in the band in Cleo to get a comfortable fit. Of course I wish it had 3 columns of hooks, but it's firm enough even in a 38 to stay in place.

    My go-to for looks -- not comfort.

    Update a year+ later, I still love it, just now graduated to the 2nd set of hooks even though lots of wear.

    Only issue with Cleo is the top lace panel is not sewn to the same tightness as the bottom of the cup, meaning ... a seam line is readily apparent, total bummer.

    2-year update: still own, wear and love this bra. Lengthened the straps. Band still fits great because of weight gain. Am in between cups in cleo so these are loose on top by the end of the day, even though I took in the top lace on my smaller side.

    Have begun to crack the code on why panache fits and feels the way it does: their wires are of a guage like 8x heavier than any other brand's. No wonder they are so uncomfortable! and support so well!

    3 year update: am finally retiring this bra, have repurchased in the same size and am using this one as a sewing pattern. Just wanted to note that in 3 years of heavy wear I went from an extender to just the last set of hooks, never stretched more than that (caveat i did gain some weight in that time period, my UB went up .5"). So: wow on that sturdy elastic, Cleo, and here's to the power of washing your bra every few wears and gently.

  2. I hate the material - it feels like plastic tarp. The bra looks and feels cheap in person. The fit is okay....the thin material makes the wires uncomfortable. The top of the bra is quite narrow, even for my teardrop shape. It gives an okay shape and good lift.

  3. This cut is deep & projected but a bit closed off on top, which makes it a no-go for many. It works for me, although the straps are VERY wide set, which can become uncomfortable at the end of a long day. The bands only have 2 hooks, which I think is ridiculous for cup sizes above F, but the support is nonetheless excellent. Lift is excellent. Quality is excellent. Pattern is freaking adorable.

    Fits quite standard for the Marcie family. One of the more closed on top of the group.

    more for even-to-FoT breasts with moderate projection. Very comfortable, nice, light materials.

    This is definitely a full-on-top bra. It's at least a cup size too small on me, but it took me a while to realize it because of how open the red lace is. It's your standard Cleo in most ways with projection, average wires, and a nice rounded shape.

    Like the previous owner mentioned, the straps on this bra are remarkably short. I did get a Melissa in similar size and the straps are fine there, so I think it may be a manufacturing quirk with just this bra.

    I bought this on Zulily while trying to figure out my size. It's a cup size too small but that seems to work to its advantage. I usually get a bit of loose fabric at the top of my Cleos (Cleo Lily Balconnet Bra (7351) , Cleo Ellis (7211) ) and a little inner cup quadding since I'm pretty projected and FOB. With this bra I get just the smallest amount of quadding at the top of the cup. I have a tiny bit of inner-cup quadding but it's not as noticeable as on some of my other Cleos possibly because the lower fabric is more firm.

    The gore doesn't quite tack because the cups are pulling my breasts so close together. It doesn't seem to affect the fit or support so I'm okay with that. I think if the gore were lower it wouldn't be an issue.

  8. The fit is very similar to the Marcie. At first, I got an odd fold in the lace, near the center seam, but after one wash, it is gone. Great lift and support. I am not usually a big fan of red and blue, but this bra is very cute in person.

    Too small in the cups and too big in the band!
