Overall this bra is very pretty. I have the pink colour and the lace is very nice with lots of little details. This bra seems to fit okay, but not perfect. It is not padded, and creates a kind of pointy shape because of this. It also seems to fit me a bit weird in certain places. It feels a bit tight and pushes me upwards in the cups, but at the same time is almost too loose in other places, creating wrinkles in the lace. I think I may have too much upper pole fullness for this style.
Bought when I was trying to figure out my post-weight loss size. The cups were too large for me both in width and height. This caused the underwire to stab me in the chest. Otherwise, it was a cute bra though the ruffle is a bit odd.
I had to send this back because the cup was too small for me, and they don't go higher in this style than a G-cup. Disappointed, because this seems like a very nice, basic moulded cup bra with a cute trip along the neckline.
Now, when I first got this bra I absolutly loved it!! The fit, the pattern, the look; it was all perfect! However I have found that with wear the band has stretched too much and the cups are too small. I would reccomend that If you have a 26/27 inch underbust measurement that you don't go for this bra if you plan on wearing it a lot as it will stretch out really fast. All in all I do love this bra.
I love the look of this bra. It's pretty supportive and I like that the straps aren't too thick and that it's low enough to wear lower cut shirts. It also makes me look perky and gives me a good silhouette. : )
The only problem is that I think the band may be slightly too tight on me - the underwire in the front between my boobs pushes a little bit too much. In my other bras I'm a 32G, but I think this cup size (GG) is perfect for me. The sides are also very close to my armpits, but it's still comfortable.
Overall, I think this is a good bra, although I wouldn't wear it while relaxing around the house.
This one is definitely too big for me. The underwires extend around nearly to my back! Too much fabric at the top of the cups as well. Also, the sides of the cups dig uncomfortably into my armpits.
The band is the perfect size for me though. Nice and snug.
A pretty bra, but definitely way too big for me in the cups!
First off I have to say that I find this pattern hideous and if I hadn't received it as a grab bag order I would never have bought it. Looks can be decieving though because this is one comfy bra! It's lightly padded so no terrible nipple slights and the seams don't show under a t-shirt. The lace is rather annoying though and kind of pokes out but this could be snipped off if you need to. I have to wear it on the tightest hooks and I did have to bend the underwire around to mold to my rib cage but it's definitely a keeper as long as I wear it under dark cloths and nobody sees it. : )
** pictures with review are with the bra on the loosest hook and before I bent the underwire**
German only: Meine Kritikpunkte wären: -viel zu viel Nylon und Elasthan. Das 28-er Band lässt sich so weit ausdehen wie ein 32-er Band! Normalerweise sind 28-er für mich schließbar, aber untragbar. Den Lucy habe ich absichtlich ein UBB kleiner gewählt und das Gefühl, eigentlich ein 30-er Band zu tragen. -der Steg ist zu breit, er liegt zwar an, knickt aber in der Mitte zusammen. Stört jedoch nicht beim Tragen oder in der Optik, könnte sogar von Vorteil sein, da keine Stegbrötchen mehr.
Mein Fazit: Ich liebe ihn! (hat man nicht erwartet, weil ich am Anfang nur gemeckert habe, stimmts? https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> Aber beim gefühlten 100. Bh steigen einfach die Ansprüche, was die Begeisterung jedoch nicht mindert) Für ein 28-er Band sind die Bügel erstaunlich schmal, sonst habe ich in diesem Größenberei immer Probleme mit viel zu weiten Bügeln. Diese sitzen perfekt.

Quality: 3/5 (is very supportive yet delicate... will survive the entire summer season?) Comfort: 5/5 Appearance: 5/5
I am super pleased to say the fit is 100% identical on this bra to the current widely available SS12 Yellow version. Sometimes there is a slight fluctuation in the actual bra make so I decided to try both a 30g (http://bra.pe/RdB/) and 28gg just like Lucy in Yellow. Please see my fit review for Yellow 28gg here: (http://bra.pe/RcB/).
The color is quite difficult to capture on camera. It is perhaps best described as a "fluorescent green highlighter" color. I am in love.
Measured immediately before wearing. Purchased mid-June 2012 from Bravissimo.
I got this bra about 4 months after I got implants... It fit fine at the time, little did I know I was still swollen in the band and had more settling to do.
Bra was super comfortable and very pretty! Loved the pattern and thick comfortable straps! It is very thinly padded but keeps from showing the nipples. I would definitely recommend this bra or any of the Cleo line!
This bra is pretty! Cleo is one of my fave lines, I ordered this bra a while back when I was still trying to figure out what size I was and I kept it because it worked for me for a while and it still works because technically I don't pop fully out of it although my nipples are right at the lace line at the top of the cup. I have to really scoop the side boob tissue to get into the cup when wearing this (but only because I technically should be in a 30H. Anyway, Fabulous bra, would definitely recommend! Love the line, nice slightly padded bra, no nipplage.
I love this bra because it is really pretty. It is white with a lacy overshell which doesn't pick easily so that is nice as well. This is a nice plunge to wear with low cut tops and the lacy shell doesn't show much under sheer shirts. The only downsides are the underwire slides within the underwire pocket so I had to add some stitches to keep it from moving. Also the cup is cut pretty low to where my nipples ALMOST pop out but I don't have quad-boob. It is a pretty bra but remember with white bras, you are going to get discoloration where it touches your body no matter how clean you are. Also the straps are a little short for me so the top of the cup chafes on my armpit area, but I'm keeping it!
Very good support for such a delicate looking bra! The band sits nice and snug and the straps are very comfortable. I found some cutting in in the top of the cups so I modified the center gore and now it fits perfectly. It also gives a nice and rounded shape which I like.
Definitely too small for me, but I should have known, I just really hoped https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Nice forward projection though! Very rounded and forward, instead of making the breast take up a lot of area on your chest. Looks and feels fantastic as well. Though it is only 2 hooks, still felt wide and supportive.
This bra is a pleasant identical fit to newer SS12 version Olivia in 28H (http://bra.pe/RlL/). Exact material sturdiness, perfect rounded shape, well adjustable straps, adorable print, every day comfort.
Measured unstretched before wearing. Purchased mid-August through Bratabase.
This is a pretty bra. The band is very stretchy, and I can fasten it on the middle hooks. By fastening it on the first set of hooks, the cups "droop". The lace is set on at an odd angle, but doesn't seem to show under shirts. Anyone very full on top will likely need to go up a size, as this seems to be a better fit for bottom heavy cups.
EDIT: The cups aren't big enough in either a 32G or a 30GG - they look okay, but by the end of the day, I hurt on the sides and have overspill. I wore the 32G ...for two days, at which point I was on the tightest set of hooks with the shoulder straps bearing most of the weight. Further, after having it on a while, I get overspill. I agree with everyone - if you're full at all on top (and I'm not overly so), size up. I need to try a 30H in this bra, which I'm going to do - I think the shallower cups are will work well once I get the right size.
EDIT EDIT: I talked to a fitter at Breakout Bras, who said the Juna underwires don't go back very far under the arm - so anyone with much breast tissue on the sides isn't going to get a good fit with this bra. I asked for a credit rather than an exchange. Read more 134 more words
The band is really stretchy, so I could probably use a 28. The top of cups, below the lace, cuts in a little. No problems with the lace being too tight or too loose, it is just right. The center gore is higher than I prefer, with my close set boobs.
Speaking from experience I'd highly suggest exchanging down 1-band, up 1-cup method to a 28gg for you. The cup looks just a bit too small and would likely be a perfectly comfortable fit.
