This bra itself is gorgeous; unfortunately, it warped my breasts into some horrid ski slope downturned shape, as well as put them right in my armpits.

The sizing on this bra is perfect, and the straps are padded and comfortable. Unfortunately, the straps are so wide set they dig into my arms. As with most Panache bras, the cups are extremely wide, so be wary if you're more narrow than average. Otherwise, it's a beautiful bra.

I fell for the beautiful AW13 Tea Rose and Figleaves exclusive Peppermint colourways. They're both perfect, incredibly flattering on my skintone - Tea rose works great as a neutral and Peppermint is a gorgeous mint green colour (mints being mostly blue these days). However, that's where my love for the Tango ends. I tried it in a variety of sizes, at a time when I still had no idea how wire width affects fit, I didn't know much about shape either and I had yet to try a bra that truly fit, so I had nothing to compare it to. Looking back, the cups were too wide in ... every size, and the shape was always very pointy and east-west, with almost no depth at the wires and gore, where I need it. The style is also a full cup rather than a balconette, at least in the larger cups, meaning it cut into my FOT/tall root, even in several sizes up. The Tango is one of those models that I'm sure works wonders for women with small cups or a larger underbust, but in the large cup/small band range, there are a lot of problems due to poor scaling.

Starting at a GG cup, the straps are reinforced with padding, there's boning at the wings, and it has a three hook closure. In spite of the issues I had with the cups, I still felt like my breasts were comfortably anchored to my body, with no possibility of an accidental peek or boob escaping anywhere. It's like Panache have constructed a boob fortress to securely contain your breasts. No flimsy lace, no frilly doo-dahs, just your boobies and their fortress.

Does not work with my shape!

YES! Best fitting bra for me ever! Panache Andorra gives me the shape I want, and this plunge keeps the center gore and side wings from being too high that I can't wear my favorite shirts and tops. The stretchy lace tops gives enough support to the top of my breasts that I'm not going to fall out of this one!

I ordered this bra and the 28HH Tango II at the same time, and at first was unsure which to wear. In the beginning I was worried it was too tight and that the wires under my armpits were high, wide, and cutting off my circulation. I took it off halfway through the workday the first time I wore it.

This is probably a testament to the troubles I've had finding a good bra, plus I've complicated it by trickling down a little in weight and inches! It also could be that after some wearing, this bra broke in a bit. I now can fasten it on the third ... hook and have it be comfortable, and there's certainly some extra space in the top of the cups.

Overall, however, the fit issues seem to be ones I often run into with Panache -- the cups and wires are high and end too widely under my arms. The wires on this bra basically line up with the back edge of my arm pit. I think I've ended up with the larger cup sizes in this brand partially because I get a lot of unused space to the sides. And I'm not sure my root is even particularly narrow! The high gore is also an issue, and my worst jabbing comes from the top of the wires against my sternum even after I've given them a bit of bending.

This is now, however, one of my daily bras. The black mesh is pretty , soft, and has a substantial feel without being stiff or scratchy.

I tried the 28G in this about a week ago and found it to be too small in the cup (among other things). For a variety of reasons, I ordered this in the 28H instead of the 28GG (though I'll now be trying that one out just to check).

The difference between the 28G and the 28H is pretty significant (recognizing that there is an entire size in between). The cups on this one were close, but also fit entirely differently. The wires extended too far and the gore (even though it is a plunge) was uncomfortable. Perhaps most surprising though, was that the 28 band feels much more like a 26 band, even on the loosest setting. At least I know I'm not a 26 now. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

All around, a good bra, but not the right fit. It will be interesting to see how the 28GG fits.

I love the subtle trim and the soft cups, super comfortable, and allow for a little fluctuation. My boobs spill out in the middle slightly, but they always do in a plunge due to my slightly outward pointing nips. The straps are fully adjustable and at a good distance apart. As with other plunges the wires dig into my sternum, kinda bad. Before I wear this bra for any length of time I will have to break it in and probably manipulate the wires some. I don't know why but plunges always have uncomfortable wires. The band is also too small, I couldn't fasten it, I have to use an extender. At least it will last longer this way.

Overall it's a very nice bra, though it definitely needs breaking in.

This is my first Tango Plunge bra. The two things that I love about this bra is how comfortable it is and how low the gore is on it. I bought this bra from another user.

I'm happy with this bra overall. The wires are about an inch too wide for me, but that's hard to avoid in an H cup on a 28 band. The band does fit on the snug side, I might consider sister sizing to a 30GG with my next purchase. It provides a nice shape and I love how it looks.

This is an everyday bra for me as it's sturdy and practical and doesn't show under t-shirts. It doesn't give me cleavage but it does give a nice not super rounded but definitely not pointy shape. The straps are padded which make them very comfortable and they are not too wideset for my shoulders like some other bras are. The band is quite stretchy but it doesn't ride up. The band has 2 hooks and I wish it had 3 as I find 3 hooks more comfortable and it makes the bra feel more secure. Edit: After wearing this bra for a while I noticed wrinkling at the bottom of the cup so I think this bra is too shallow for me and the wires are too wide, this makes it slightly uncomfortable but is still wearable.

I am still trying to fighure out what cup size I wear, I recently found out that I'm a 26 band not a 28. I can wear some GG cups. I bought this bra when I wasn't sure of my exact size , and it's too late to return.This is a beautiful Berry color by Panache. This bra is brand new with tags attached, never worn only tried on. Panache is known for having smaller bands than Freya and I agree, its very comfortable and light, but it is not my cup size.

28 bras

Sadly this bra did not fit me. I originally reviewed this bra in a 28GG, but it was way too small in the cup so I reordered in a 28H to see if it would fit better. Well there were more fit issues with this size than with the original 28GG.

Pros:
1) Soft lace.
2) Three hook/three columns in the back.
3) Nice wide side wings so no back bulges.
4) Beautiful shade of purple.
5) Straps are just the right distance apart.
6) Straps that are the right width elastic, not too thick not to thin.
7) Straps fully adjustable.

Cons:
1) Cup still too small.
2) Didn’t really provide much lift.
3) Wires stretched and wrapped around to my back, very uncomfortable.
4) Gave boobs an east west spread.
5) Gave boobs a pointy shape.

This bra got sent back the next day. It was just not for me.

I was not expecting this bra to fit but was pleasantly surprised! It was an impulse buy in an online sale with free postage so I thought why not? The wires are a bit wider than I would like, which is not helped by the fact it already has to be fastened on the middle hooks, but the cups are perfect. There is no wrinkling or digging in and it lifts my boobs into a nice round shape compared to my white 28GG version of this, which has become too tight to wear. In that one the wires are spot on, but there isn't enough space in the ... cup, whereas this one has enough depth but too much width. I think the sizing of this bra changes depending on the colour as this in black fits best in an H cup, but the pink version is fine in a GG, whereas the white in a GG is definitely too small. It may take some trial and error to find a good fit in this bra. I love the comfort of this bra, it is perfect for everyday use.

Pros:
Pretty design and great comfort
Lace is very forgiving if its a little too big or small
The band is fairly snug for a 28 (just not enough for me it would seem)
Nice natural shape
Really good for bottom-heavy shapes, even those like me who avoid freya and curvy Kate balconettes and plunges.

Cons:
The sizing is a bit odd
Not good for creating cleavage (should you be wanting any)
Not for wearing under really low-cut clothing
The wires are rather wide and go too far back by about 1/2" on each side (for me anyway)
