This is my most perfectly fitting bra. The lace might wrinkle ever so slightly at the top, due to me being FOB, but it is great. So comfortable, I hardly know I have it on. Great for close-set breasts. Also, it works despite me being center-full.
If you were wondering if what they say about black bras is true (size up in the band), here is a perfect example. I own 4 of this bra in different colors, and I think you could line up the band sizes this way, from smallest to largest: black, wine, mineral blue, antique (light dusty pink).
As for the bra, love it! It fits because it matches my shape: center-full, close-set, FOB, splayed, tall roots, fairly wide roots.
So I am returning the black one in 28G and ordering a 30FF. The wine color in 30ff fits fine, as does the antique in 28g (and I will no doubt stretch out the mineral blue 28G after a few wears and ditch the extender).
Wow, my first bra that fits! It does wrinkle a little on top, but as I am FOB, this is the best I can do. FYI, center full, FOB, splayed, wide/tall roots, close-set. The lace on top is stretchy, and hides any difference is size. The color is very pretty, muted, but not pastel.
I bought this bra gently used and it fits nice and tight on the first hook. It's a cup size too big but will do for now. I like the shape and it's very cute. The center gore was itchy all day and the underwires left red marks but I think that will go away after a while. I fill it up nice after scooping and swooping and tightening the straps, but there's some room at the bottom and sides between my root and the underwire. UPDATE: well, today it certainly doesn't fit!
Re-doing this review now that I know what I'm doing a little more. This is one of the first "fitting" bras I bought from r/braswap. It's used and still has good elasticity in the band, but I get "pointy boob" in it. Since my collection is sparse at this stage it's still getting a lot of wear, despite having room on all sides, as the pictures show. I could go down a size but the Jasmine isn't my favourite Panache bra tbh. It's a little too youthful rather than my idea of classic feminine/sexy. Anyways I'm adding pictures because this is the one I'm wearing today lol. That means it might be slightly looser when I measure it tonight.
This one is really close. I tried it first on the loosest (and most comfortable) setting, and unfortunately it did slide down a little bit after a few hours (in front near the breast tissue). However, upon tightening to the middle hooks, it is now much less comfortable. That said, the center gore is easily the softest on my sternum, so that's a major plus. A larger cup would resolve some slight indention in tissue. So close!
This bra is good in a lot of ways. My initial issues related to the band, but I think I've just determined that I wasn't sufficiently swooping/scooping, so the cups are a little too small - breast tissue that was at the bottom of the cup now overflows a tiny bit at the top and there is a bit of loose material at the bottom.
My current most significant concern, which may be due to the cups being too small, is that the band is riding down just a little bit after a short period time just below the breast tissue in the front.
I'll keep trying with this same model to see if I can get a cup size that is closer to what I need!
Gorgeous T-shirt bra. While it kind of fits, the cups are taller, shallower, and wider than I'd like. Even though the cups are tall, gaping is very minimal because it closes nicely on top. For this reason, I'd say it's better suited to FOB breasts or breasts with even fullness. And even though the cups are kind of wide and extend around my side a bit, the wires don't poke my armpits, so it's not uncomfortable. Straps are comfy too. Band is a bit loose.
This is a beautiful bra. Comfortable and hold up large heavy breasts well. Gives a good shape under clothes. It does come with detachable straps so you can convert it to a regular bra, halter or criss cross. In a 30G I would prefer 4 rows of hooks instead of 3. The band in this bra is too big for me but it doesn't come in a 28.
Slightly too large in the cup and too small in the band for me. It's a true 28 and I'm definitely a 30 these days (20 weeks into my second pregnancy). I wear it with an extender. Since I don't fill out the cups completely (mainly at the bottom; there's some obvious wrinkling where I don't have enough volume to fill it), it gives kind of a pointy shape.
The fabric is kind of scratchy, but I'm sure it will be softer once it's broken in. When I was nursing my first baby, I had a 30GG Envy that I loved and wore all the time.
Many thanks to my "boob cousin" for sharing one of her favorite, readily available bras. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> If this gore were narrower, I would purchase a Cari bra. The spacer foam is thinner than the foam Comexim and Ewa Michalak use. The immediate projection is good: there was a bit of buckling near the wire. The concentric circles around the cradle were both tasteful and interesting.
However, I strongly prefer three columns of fasteners I always receive with my Comexim orders. The band on Cari feels less supportive because it is more narrow. Additionally, I appreciate the .75" straps on Comexim bras. Finally, Comexim will both narrow and overlap the gore wires which I require for my close set breasts.
This is a great bra if you need immediate projection and you can tolerate a .9" Gore width.
This bra gives really good support so I wish I could find the right size. This size feels too tight on me in the band and cup but then when I've tried it in a 30FF, the cup ride down and the back up. I'll post the pictures of the 30ff in the hot pink color
As someone who have a soft FoB breast with a need of a lot of immediate projection, I usually struggle to find a bra that I can fill in the bottom and the top of the cup at the same time. I started my adventure for a bra that fit at the beginning of the year, but until now, I never had the glorious feeling that I found the most perfect bra for my boobs. Well, now I have. The Tango II scarlet has arrived in my mail box this morning, and it gives me the projection I need at the bottom of the cup, but at the ...same time, it gently line the top of my breast, with no gap and no quadboob. The fabric is great, soft and not stretchy, it feel supportive. The wire are padded, and are confortable, they could have been a little narrower for my very narrow roots, but they are narrow enough to my taste. The straps are stretchy, and that's again very confortable, I trust them not to cut into my shoulders. Finally, the bra is very good looking. I love the design, the sewn leaves... However, I was a little disappointed when I discovered that the scarlet tango... Wasn't scarlet. It's a very deep pink, or maybe primary red... It isn't a bright and definitive red, it's a little pinkish. It isn't very visible on photo thought, it looks red. The shape it gives me is very natural, I like it.
I still have to see how it will turn out after wearing it a whole day, I will edit this review later.
Etant quelqu'un qui a une poitrine à la peau lâche, FoB, et ayant besoin de beaucoup de projection immédiate, je galère d'habitude à trouver un soutien gorge dans lequel je remplis le bas et le haut du bonnet en même temps. J'ai débuté mon aventure en quête d'un soutien gorge qui m'irait parfaitement au début de l'année, mais jusqu'ici, je n'avais jamais ressentis cette incroyable sensation d'avoir trouvé le plus parfait des soutiens gorges pour mes seins. C'est chose faite à présent. Le Tango II est arrivé dans ma boite aux lettre ce matin, et il me donne toute la projection dont j'ai besoin dans le bas du bonnet, tout en épousant le dessus de mes seins, sans bailler et sans me faire de quadboob. Le tissu est super, doux et pas élastique, je me sens bien soutenue. Les baleines sont rembourrées, et sont confortables, elles pourraient être un petit peu plus étroites pour mes racines super étroites, mais elles le sont suffisamment à mon goût. Les bretelles sont élastiques, et ça aussi c'est vraiment confortable, je sais qu'elles ne me rentreront pas dans les épaules. Enfin, le soutien gorge est vraiment beau. J'adore son look, les feuilles cousues... Cependant, j'ai été un peu déçue de découvrir que le Tango "écarlate", n'est pas écarlate. C'est un rose très foncé, ou un rouge primaire... Ce n'est pas un rouge éclatant et définitif, il tend vers le rose. Par contre ça ne se voit pas vraiment sur les photos, il y a l'air rouge. La forme que le tango me donne est très naturelle, j'aime beaucoup.
Faut encore que je vois comment il va m'aller après l'avoir porté toute une journée, j'éditerais cette review plus tard. Read more 449 more words
To be honest, this is just the absolute wrong shape for me. It makes my boobs look like very large pecs, with a little bit of a pointy/square side profile. They are made very high up but very separate, and the band is a little too tight on me.
My first properly-sized bra! I actually found this when cleaning out my car; I had completely forgotten that I owned this. As my first bra that I ordered based solely off of my new size, I'd say I did pretty well! This bra fits in every aspect except for the fact that the cups are just far too wide, you can see in the pictures that they wrap halfway under my arms and the cup cuts into my armpit a little bit. However, the band, gore, & top and bottom of the cups fit perfectly! This bra looks like I've worn it much less that I have (although I haven't worn it in at least a year, probably closer to two), so the band has probably snapped back a lot. It's a very true-to-size 28 band and provides a lot of support. The fabric is super soft as well!
Go for it if you are at least of average height! The cups do not overwhelm my torso, but i am irritated that they they slide down on my ribs. It would be a nice smooth-lying tee shirt bra if the straps were not so wide set and if they were fully adjustable. The band of this black model was stretchy so I have it on the middle hook and can fit three fingers. The straps are wide set and chafe, and the gore doesnt tack unless I improvise a J-hook to pull the straps together. The wires are somewhat too wide and my soft tissue wants to escape to my armpits. Alas, it was not meant for my 5"1' frame.
The cups are really tall, and the shape I get in this bra is actually less uplisted than my natural, braless state. It definitely minimizes my breasts. The gore is just a hair too wide, but if I alter it, the underwire is not longer wide enough.
I've been told that this Panache was running on the big side, to my opinion, it's the opposite.
Although the band was on the big side for a 28, the cups are really really small (a small 28G, or even 28FF). The underwires are not coming high enough on the sides, so it doesn't hold anything (but this could only be my odd shape).
Good points though, the moulded cups are smoothing the curves and the centre gore is very low, so it would be ideal to wear with a sexy plunging halterneck top. I will try the 30G and might alter the band if the fit is good as the low center gore is so good!
