After my old strapless (H&M) started to get too tall (and a bit too big in the band) I was looking for a new one. The boutique I visited did not have it in my usual 32F so I tried it in 32FF and it fits surprisingly well.

This is a lined, seamed, 3-piece cup which offers good projection for a strapless. It seems to work best for short-rooted people - I rarely see a lined bra that doesn't gape on top - and gives a slightly pointy shape. The band runs half a size tight - on the tighter side of comfortable for me but not painful. ... The "nude" color is just nude to the whitest of white people (I happen to be one), it has a slight yellow-ish tint and the exchangeable straps (fully adjustable) are even lighter in color.

The padding is slightly too much for my taste (the less the better - if unlined strapless bras existed I would buy them). And as usual, I cut off the bow in the middle as soon as the pictures were taken.

Super tight band. Good for immediate projection. Seems ok for full on top. Itchy?

The band it astoundingly tight. I measure 30.5 snug, this bra is listed at a 32, I put an extender on it (which would make it a 34) and it's super tight. I can't get it on without the extender and I wouldn't want to. If I were to get this in another color I'd go up a band.

I have very immediate projection, which makes it challenging to find a strapless bra that will stay up without my breasts pushing it down. This bra can /almost/ accommodate me. The folds on the underside of the ... cup are the least I have ever experienced, and while the bra gets pushed down a little, it stops at a certain point and is stable. So, the wires don't sit in the inframammary fold for me but they're also not at my waist. And over-all, it don't end up looking droopy which is really the end goal.

A see people complain about the slight bullet shape of this bra. It's true. However I think that's what makes it fit and stay on my body, that's my natural shape so my breasts are able to sit in the cups without pushing the bra around.

Final note, I haven't worn it out yet but I wore it around the house for about 5 hours. It's kinda itchy. Not in a way that makes me want to scratch at myself really, but uncomfortable. I might be sensitive to something in the fabric. Maybe this will improve with a wash.

This was recommended to me as a strapless bra with seamed cups (instead of molded ones). I tried the Panache Evie in 32FF and 34F which are sizes that typically work for me.

The band on the 34F was a bit too big for me, but the 32 band was a good fit. Unfortunately, the gore still floats because the cups still don't work for me in this size. I get quadding at the top of the cup, and my tissue is pushing on the bottom in a way that makes odd folds. I think this is both a size and a shape issue, so I don't think going up another cup size will make it work.

In short, this was a no go for me in either 34F or 32FF.

This bra's bands tend to run a bit snug. Sister size up in this bra, and potentially go up a cup volume. If you are between two cup sizes, choose the larger one.

This bra gives a slightly pointy look. The nude is a very light color that's also a bit yellowish, which I didn't find flattering as a younger person. I like the black a lot better, especially the way it looks with the detachable straps. I have had some issues with slipping when wearing this bra as a strapless bra, and had to go right to the second hook, though I usually wear a 30 band.
