This review is for the Candy Pink Cleo Marcie. I originally bought it in a 28F which almost fit so I tried the 28E instead. The 28E is much smaller than my other 28E Cleo bras (Raspberry Cleo Marcie, Cleo Lucy, Cleo Kali, Cleo Nyla, Cleo Lily and Cleo Ellis). Everything about this bra is smaller, it seems like it should be a 28DD but is labeled a 28E. I kept it thinking it would stretch but don't wear it often enough. The under wires are the same width as the 28E bras I mentioned and narrower than the 28F Pink Marcie so I'm thinking it's meant to be a 28E. I should have returned this bra but it was my first experience with 28E's
Surprisingly, the Raspberry Cleo Marcie fits well.

I've mostly worn Panache Cleo's in a 28F. My best fitting bra is the Cleo Blake. I'm pendulous, even, fuller on top and projected. I've primarily worn Cleo bras because the 28 bands work for my size 26 E/F. Since the Cleo Minnie has been discontinued I've been exploring other brands. I just got this bra today from Amazon and the fit is perfect. The wires are a little wide on the sides but that's common in this size, even in Cleo's. Unlike the older Cleo's that pushed me to the center this bra gives me a more natural fit. I don't get that little spill out the ... middle like I do in some of my Cleo's.I was worried about the band being too large but it actually fits comfortably.
The cups are a floral print on a navy background. The top of the cups, wings and gore are lace while there is a supportive white, navy and blue elastic band. The cups are trimmed with an elastic band so they don't cut into my boobs.
The bra is both casual and dressy. In spite of the lace it looked smooth under a darker T-shirt. I'm excited now to try more Freya bras.

I got this bra today, put it on and haven't taken it off. It's so comfortable. As usual the straps are a little too wide for my narrow shoulders. So far the under wires aren't poking into to my rib cage like my new Marcie does (I think I need to bend the wires a little). The seam on my smaller boob does show slightly through my T-Shirt. I haven't tried it with my other T-shirts so I'm not sure if this will be a problem.
Like other Cleo bras the band is firm, very good for my 25" under bust.
The pattern is red with white polka dots and cute even though I'm not a "Minnie Mouse" type.

Finally, a Comexim that fits. I originally bought the Georgia in 28H. I figured starting with 28 bands was the safest place to start. The 28H is wearable but the gore doesn't tack and the fit of the cup is a little big on top and the straps a little wide. It also slides below my IMF. I thought I might need alterations to get Comexiums to fit or I should have gotten 28G. Last week Wellfitting had a clearance type sale and had the Georgia in a 26 band. Even though it wasn't refundable I decided to give it a try anyway. I'm so glad I did. The band is nice and snug, no need for an extender, the placement of the straps is perfect for my narrow shoulders, the gore tacks, no sliding down. Cup fit is almost perfect, I do fall slightly toward center but at this point I don't care. I'm jumping with joy.

I bought this bra when I was looking for a TShirt bra. It give a nice shape, looks good under all my shirts. The band isn't as firm as other Cleo's so it stretched much faster than I like. Not so good for my 25" ribcage.
