I have mixed but overall positive feelings about this bra.
Firstly, when I ordered it from herroom I expected the fabrics of the cup to be one sheer and the other one more opaque. However, what I got was a bra with the cups all in the same type of fabric, in between sheer and opaque. This was a disappointment because I really like the appearance of bras with half sheer fabric. Still, the colour was breathtaking so that compensated it a bit. It's a gorgeous bra like this too, I simply expected something different.
To be honest, when I first bought this bra it didn't fit all ... that well. But now, a year later, it does. I used to experience quad boobs/spillage on the top when wearing it but that no longer happens.
The band runs a bit tighter than I'd like but it's not such a big issue. The straps can be adjusted properly.
The underwires are a bit too long on the sides, poking under my arms. I had the same issue with the Panache Tango Ii Balconette (3251), so I wonder if this has to do with the way Panache makes their bras. Perhaps they are too wide for me.
One of the main problems I face when I wear this bra is that the bottom lace, the one that runs in front of the bra, under the band, tends to roll in and it can make me skin irritated after a day of use.
Overall, it's a beautiful, beautiful bra. I'm in love with its colour and the embroidery on the cups looks great. It's not what I wanted at first, but it is aesthetically pleasing anyway. The fabric is not the most comfortable one and the underwires are too long, but besides that, it's a good bra.
