I wanted to love this bra because it's just so pretty, but this was both a size and shape mismatch. I technically needed a 34 E, but the shape of the bra was not compatible with my breasts. I both couldn't completely fill the bottom (full on top) but was completely spilling out of both the sides and top. It was also giving, was breast could fit in the bra, a very pointy shape.

I bought this bra after trying it on in my local lingerie store, knowing the size I would need, and seeing it for only $30 on Amazon (I know, I know, support local - but you all know how expensive bra shopping is!!) I decided to get it even though it wasn't quite perfect, because I'm low on well-fitting bras and needed something to tide me over. The problems I have with this bra are similar to others I have had in the past: annoying crease on the bottom (not filling the bottom, but I think the problem isn't the cup size but more the shape), and straps are way to far apart for my narrow/petite frame. Usually I spend 10% of my day shimmying my bra to raise the underwire, and also adjusting the band back down, and moving the straps back in to rest in a comfortable spot on my shoulders. I'll keep this for now.

This bra is super comfortable. Measured/ "usual" size too small/cups not deep enough. There is a bit of retro pointiness going on but I don't mind it. Going to try a cup size bigger.

I agree that cup is too small but wanted to make note that the wires are not in your IMF. When putting on a bra, make sure you push wires into your IMF. I bend over, pull the straps on, push the under wires into my IMF/tissue, latch the back of the bra, then go in and scoop all my tissue into the cups from bottom and sides. This makes sure bra is sitting correctly and that all tissue is in the cups.
I hope the next cup size works for you!
I feel like nothing stays in my IMF!!!! I am wearing a CK bra up there and it feels weird. I guess it just doesn't feel right to me. I've never, as long as I remember, had a bra fit in my IMF. Will I get used to this sensation?? I am used to having my wires sit on my ribcage.
I actually find myself pulling the wires out of my IMF because it is not comfortable/feels weird!! Anyone else have this problem???
I think I was supposed to/meant to put LeProfessor -- just realized you can tag people in these comments!! duh..
If you keep wearing the bra in your IMF you will get used it.
I used to do the same thing, it's a tactic women whom wear bras that have bands that are too big and cups too small. In an attempt to find the most room in the smaller cups.
The wires should be encircling the breast while still being on the ribcage. The wires cannot support the breast unless they are right under the breast which is probably why you've always like very full coverage bras. They help pick up the support that the bras under wire is not providing!
If you make it a habit to have the under wire in your IMF , ivyleaf , you should get used to it and will feel more supported overall.
I'm giving this bra 4 stars instead of 5 because the gore and the lace come up a bit high for my tastes. It's a great bra for most tops and dresses but with some v-cuts and wider necks you may see the gore or the lace peek out. Otherwise great bra! Very supportive and comfortable.

Nice looking bra, good quality. Just not the right shape for me. The wire on the side is too short so my tissue migrates to the armpits and spills. The cups are too small so there's quadding in the center top.

I didn't fill in the cups and so I returned this bra.

Thank you for the measurements etc., even though it did not fit.
The bottom of the band rolls up and it feels slightly too tight. When properly scooping and swooping, the cups fill well, but I wish they didn't come up so high so they would work under more shirt styles (I wear a lot of V necks). Also the shape feels weird. I'm completely comfortable when the high point of the cup comes close to the outside and not in the immediate center of the breast, which makes me feel pointy. The wires seem to be wide enough. The gore is very tall, but I'll have to wear for an entire day before I can say whether it digs in throughout the day.

Thank you for the review. I want to try Panache Andorra Full Cup Bra (5675) in a sister size to this.
You're welcome dfe98we ! I've found the gore is too high for me since my breasts don't really have space between them. I've worn the bra quite a few times and so now I'm pondering drastic modifications to it to make it more comfortable for me.
I actually like a tall gore
Wires were so stiff. They jammed into my sternum and underarms. I tried to see if I could bend them away but they were too hard to bend. I did like the stretch lace on top that didn't gape.

Do you feel that @Andorra gave you a rounded shape? Thanks for the review. Panache Andorra Full Cup Bra (5675) is *another* style I want to try
A little shallow for me, but works well with my soft tissue at the top of the cup and mostly accommodates for my center-fullness. The quadboobing is from, again, it being rather shallow. The band also runs firmer and shorter than other Panache bras IME, notably Envy. Super pretty and up to Panache's usual quality standards.

Lovely! The wires come so low in front it looks painful to me, but mine do too. and are only occasionally painful
dbmamaz Isn't it pretty? I so wish it fit. If I was craftier I could replace the wires but as usual, I have trouble justifying that in a full price bra.
The wires aren't as low as they look. I would estimate there's a good quarter inch of extra fabric on the band. The lace lays really nice and flat. I prefer this amount of fabric, actually, as it prevents a lot of the bunching up normal banded bras tend to do.
I really wanted this to fit! It was super comfortable.
