Customers are mixed about the fit of the bra. Some mention that it fits nicely, is reasonably true to size, and feels tight enough. However, others say that the fit is small, so size up.

You can't go wrong with Cleo/ Panache!

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2016

Verified Purchase

I am a major major MAJOR Cleo/ Panache bra snob. It's the only bras I own and I likely have 12 of them. This bra is one I am buying in duplicate. It fits as expected and covers any "headlights" which is important as a nurse wearing this scrubs. It lifts the girls (they need it) and looks great under t-shirts. I don't perfectly fit the cups but I also don't have "double boob" or "uniboob" that you can get as a large chested gal so easily. The color and patterns don't show through shirts as much as you'd think it would. Again, it is not a thin bra and it has a molded shape to it so if you were to sit it on top of a flat surface it would hold it's shape and not lay flat. I like this especially in the colder months or even a colder building (again, doctor's office work) as it just keeps you warmer and hides the obvious results of stated temps! I also have Raynaud's which often times will make your toes or fingers burn and ache and turn blue-ish purple in cold climates due to vaso-spasm/ constriction. In large chested women (I'm a 32-34 GG) similar results can occur in your OTHER two extremities! And it HURTS!!!!! So I love this bra to help protect me on the days that I can feel that the Raynaud's may be easily triggered.

So Cute, Knock-Out Cleavage, One Weird Fit Issue

Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2017

Verified Purchase

This bra is really cute and gives knock-out cleavage. I bought it to wear under a dress of the same color to a beach wedding, and the dress had a plunging neckline that needed discrete undergarments. I almost didn't wear the dress because the cleavage was almost too much--it doesn't look fake or like you're trying too hard, but it's hard to look away if you're generously proportioned. I was very pleased with the cuteness, the silhouette, and the flattering decollete, but there was something slightly ill-fitting about the band. It felt tight enough, but didn't sit perfectly flush against my rib cage (as if it moved), even though the cups fit. I'm a 30 E, so an ill-fitting bra is my undoing. I was able to spend 8 hours in this baby, dancing, carrying someone else's 4 year-old, and having a blast, with minimal discomfort. Wearing it under a t shirt, I noticed more that something odd was going on with the fit, but it wasn't uncomfortable so much as it was distracting.

Not the quality it used to be from this brand.

Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2018

Verified Purchase

This bra is much like the “So” brand from Kohl’s. The teenage intimate apparel. Very much on the cheaper side with a heavier price tag. I was a bit disappointed. I wear the Juna bra from this brand and love it. But it seems the company has changed the material and the quality is no longer. I have recently purchased the Juna, and it too, is a lesser quality material from what it used to be. Very disappointing. I will not be buying these bras anymore. It is sad, because they once were a good bra for larger breast sizes. They used to support well. Things have changed.
I wear a size 34G or 36E

Fun print and good support for shallow on top

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2020

Verified Purchase

I find that my breast shape does best in a demi and this didn’t disappoint. It gives me great support and a nice round shape. I wish the straps could be let out just a little bit more, but at least they don’t dig. I don’t know why bra makers think that smaller bands means shorter space for the straps. Anyway, the blue polka-dot print is fun, the blue bright, and the fit as expected. It’s washed and line dried just fine.

Did not like

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2017

I ordered a size 28DD based on my Reddit A Bra That Fits sizing, and it was simultaneously too big and too small. The cups were oddly shaped, the material was thick and not very soft. Even if it had fit well, I wouldn't have kept it because the material was so rough.

Lovely Bra

Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

This bra fits true to size. Band in nice and firm in typical Cleo fashion. The cups are lined (not padded) which will give good coverage if needed as well as nice lift. This bra will give nice 'cakes on a plate' cleavage.

Side note - the straps on this bra are only partially adjustable. I am 5'3" and I am wearing the straps as fully extended as they allow. If you have a longer torso or if your breasts sit lower on your chest, you may have sizing issues due to the straps.

Perfect. Buy this bra.

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2017

LOVE this bra. The fit is perfect, it's very boobie-lifting, comfortable, as I expect from a Panache, and most of all sooooo cute. I love wearing it with tank tops or off-the-shoulder shirts because the straps show. Now I want another color :) Bottom line, wonderful bra for women with natural, large breasts on a normal frame.

Great Bra. Fits well (28G fits similar to a Comexim 3HC in a 60J) and is very supportive. Band is true to size and fit is very flattering. It brings everything front and centre so the look from the front is slim (no east/west action) and the profile is very projected and rounded.
