    34GG

    Didn't fit

    On paper, it looks like this fits. However, I think a 32GG would "fit" in the way that a sports bra is supposed to in order to provide the intended support. This one is fine on the 2nd set of 4 hooks, but I'd probably ratchet it down to the 3rd set for real activity if the cups were more firm. I went with the Freya instead of the Panache because I'd read several reviews about Freya's shorter underwires (and I'm 5'3" so that matters). Unfortunately, it's no more bounce-reducing in this size than a 32GG Deco, which looks a whole lot better on, so I'm going to send it back into the universe.

  2. Tankini (3184)

    Didn't fit

    It's a wirefree tankini. So basically like a wirefree bra, but you can go swimming in it.

    This garment offers no support to my breasts. They are not compressed (I expected this to be a compression sports bra type). They are not encapsulated either. They're just hanging in there, squished together, like in one of my old wirefree nursing bras. The shoulder straps carry a lot of the weight, and because they go across my back, the weight is mainly on my lower neck area and I'm getting a serious headache now. When I move, my boobs move. I can't imagine doing any kind of water sports in this ... tankini.

    The hem of the tankini is too small for my hips and keeps hiking up to my waist. If the bra part

    If you want your swim gear to cover your boobs, and look androgynous (but not make your boobs disappear), do get this tankini. That is, if you don't mind looking droopy outside the water. (Because, you know, while you're in, the water will carry your boobs. They might try to escape trough the neckline though.) Unless of course your hips are a lot bigger than your waist.

    If you want your swim gear to keep your boobs from going all over the place when you actually exercise in water and/or on the beach - buy something else.

    Hasn't set fit

    This is the first bra I've ever had that stopped painful bouncing while working out. I can run and jump in this thing and it feels totally fine. Pretty magical. It's perfectly comfortable with no poking, and has lasted me several months with no signs of wearing out.

    I love it but for one thing and that would be the bizarre conical shape it gives my boobs. It's so embarrassing that I actually stopped wearing it to the gym. It flattens my boobs out and makes them pointy. I don't expect to have the most glorious boobs ever when I'm working out but this is a really horrible look. I don't even like seeing myself in it when I'm all alone. It's possible that going up a cup size would help but I would rather try a different, rounder bra next time I'm buying a sports bra.
