I like this bra a lot in terms of aesthetics, but the bans is so damn tight... fits like a 26 (!) band in EM, so it's a no-go for me. The cups are low cut, very narrow, similar to 75E - Ewa Michalak » Sm Nana Beżowa (451).

This bra fits really strangely on me. It's a gorgeous bra, and one that I re-visit in my drawer a lot, but never wear. The band is very tight, and very very narrow. It is pretty low in the wing, and tapers off to be about an inch high, rather than having a rounded leotard back like most full-bust bras.
The cups are very narrow, shallow at the base, and very very open up top. The cups feel simultaneously too small at the base, but too big at the top, resulting in a lack of support. I'm wondering if the cup design is an effort to make the bra wearable as crossback and halter (the straps are detachable) but it doesn't really work in any strap configuration for me.

How I choose my size: I just picked whatever is equivalent to 28G. Since they go from A-Z cups, thus that technically means that 60I ~ 28G. So yeah. That's my size in Milena. 60I. (I never trust any measurement chart on bra sites. I just count the 9th cup on most bra charts.)
Quality: Good enough for the price you pay. You get what you pay for. The embroideries are beautiful though.
Fit: The band, I'd say that their 60-band can fit a 26" band comfortably. I can hook a 26" band on me, but it would be uncomfortable, so I have been wearing an extender and hook it ... on the second hook/last hook of the extender. I would say the band looks like it's gonna stretched out easily.
This is better than Milena. It has immediate bottom projection for my boobs, and the wire channel doesn't twist and turn. Wires are also narrow. No issues near the centre gore like Milena. It is open on top enough for me. Not as open as Cleo Marcie (6831) , but it doesn't cut in on my FOT Boobs. Still need an extender for the band. Straps are of normal Cleo width. Shape is comparable to...SM models, round pointy but lifted.
Cup depth: The Verona (balcony) is deep, while the Toffino (half cup) is less deep than Verona. Bottom immediate projection varies from bra to bra.

The bottom of the cup doesn't have enough depth on me. Also when I wear it, the wire channel at the bottom keeps twisting and turning inside meaning the frilly bits are sitting on my ribcage. Wires are narrow, I would say they're comparable to Ewa Michalak , Cleo . The wires don't angle that much compared to Cleo though. Straps of Milena are super thin so it's a pain in the ass for me, I swapped it out with the straps of an old bra of mine. So the straps you see in 60I - Milena » Toffino are actually my straps, not the original one. I would also say it is a little shallow near the centre gore. Shape is round and lifted.

Comfortable, tight band, after three months of frequent wearing it hasn't stretched more than 1 cm, if at all. The lace is too loose in the upper part of the cups, this is a common problem with this model, even if the size is right. Should fit better someone with breasts full on top. The wires are stiff and don't stretch with the band, they fit me well. Narrow, pretty straps. Overall the bra is good quality and looks really good, but the manufacturer should work a bit more on the construction of the cups.
