Didn't fit

Purple paisley print, full coverage bra. Pretty standard panache offering quality wise. This is a 3 part cup with two layers of non stretch mesh. The band is a stretch powernet material same on the Panache Jasmine. The top of the cup has decorative lace, but it always sticks out, tighter on the area it is sewn to. It makes the cup seem too big when it is actually too small. I feel my breasts are compressed as much as possible so breathing is hard but the band is still too big. With straps not extended all the way to make up for not a big enough cup it really offers little support, and boobs escape bottom. The band and cup seem to run big in this one. Full coverage on me, but cup is uncomfortably small, band too big. Sadly this is my only wearable ( sort of) bra at the moment. Many of the hooks are missing. I desperately need bras again, nothing fits at the time of this review.

  • Are you familiar with Ewa Michalak? Its a polish company a lot of us order from. they came out with a new bigger size range series. You might want to check it out. No one is exactly sure of the sizing yet, though, because they are pretty new. I think 2 have been entered here so far?

    link to the bras on their website (looks like you can order even bigger cups in the notes below:

    This is the only bra in the series entered in to bratabase so far, but there is some discussion about them n the comments:

  • Thanks, i'm familiar. I've been dying for one of the non fuller bust ones, Przeplatanki. I 'm not sure I want to splurge on one or more not knowing measurments of a bra that fits. I wish I did't miss out on the Onyx. I have a few Ewa Michalak, just not fuller bust styles. They used to fit, although parts of the construction i was meh on.
    The FB styles frankly don't look that supportive, or as nice a general shape as their smaller counterparts (although review looks better). At least it's a step in the right direction. Worlds better from other options. I really don't need such high gores on all my bras, many people do yes, but having that option to have a plunge would be nice. Especially with closer set breasts. I just hope she doesn't stop making custom bras. Shipping and waiting is a doozy. I'm hoping my first purchase from Bravissimo is quicker. Going to try the Alana in a 36L. I'm hoping the newer Ewa bras get more measurements up as well. The new review is hopeful, and looks better on the bratabase woman. The 5 inch gore looks fine on her but anything near that I feel is way to much for me.

  • I found a video review of the FB on youtube - she said that because her boobs were 'fake' she didnt need that much support, and she didnt like so much coverage. but it seemed to fit her pretty well

Fit information

On Jun 2015

Support mostly comes from straps cups mostly enclose breasts but is painful doing so. Extending straps all the way helps make up for too small cup. Band too big, Runs size larger in band and cup this is the closest fit now. Too big in band but doable maybe a cup bigger. Straps extended all the way hooked on tightest hook

Top of the cup:
Cuts into breast tissue (quad boob effect)
Band fit:
The back of the bra is not at the same level as the front (rides up)

This bra didn't fit her, but these did
