So pretty! Band too tight on me and the tops of the cups were empty. It almost looked intentional. If the gore wasn’t digging into my chest, I might have kept it despite the loose cups. Returned.

Excellent coverage and support. Fabric is a bit scratchy and it comes up a little higher than needed under my arms. My boobs look young and perky. (Black)

This is my favourite bra, it's very comfortable and it's gorgeous. It fits true to size.

Just bought this one, and I love it! Great wire-free option that's still both functional and cute.

This bra is /almost/ perfect. The fabric is beautiful and soft against my skin. My breasts are wide rooted, close set, and FoB with a lot of immediate projection and the cup is practically perfectly fitted. My overall shape is naturally somewhat pointy, and I could see people who are used to moulded cups thinking the shape is too triangular. However, I find the shape looks very natural on me and provides just the right amount of lift. The underwire is a touch too wide for me but since the cups fit so well it's not an issue and it doesn't poke on the sides. I normally wear ... 32F (UK), so I would say this band has a lot of stretch and would recommend going down a band like I did.
If I am standing or sitting with perfect posture, I have zero issues. Unfortunately, when I slouch or lie down I have issues. The top of the cup/bottom of the strap presses slightly against my armpit, which is a minor annoyance and easily overlooked. The real problem is intense pressure from the underwires at the center gore poking against my sternum. I have seen others mention they try pushing the underwires back in the channel, which I will try and update my review if it works. Comfort would be 5/5 if not for the gore.
Because the fit of the cup is so perfect, I am keeping this bra as a "professional" bra to wear when I am at work/ in situations where holding perfect posture makes sense. I probably will not wear this bra while lounging around the house unless I am able to fix the gore pressure issue.

It turns out I got the wrong size, but I think even with the right size the shape would be more pointy than what I want

This is the non padded version with some side support!
major pros: high, supportive wires at the gore without going so high on the outside as to be pinchy or restricting ! A rare gem in my experience. Straps we also place close together enough that I could get a full range of motion without any pinching! the wires did come too far under my arm for me , but I have a fairly narrow root. Lays flat when unworn and hooks shut, unlike some bras in this range which 'triangle' up.
It did little to control boob jiggle though, and the flexible lace trim means that adding some moulding padding ripples the fabric, instead of lying flat.
Great fit, but not the right style for my needs.

Bought this bra used and the band seems to have been overstretched because the closure at the back is misshaped and some of the stitching looks strained. I don't think there is enough room at the bottom of the cup because the wire will not sit in my imf which is causing the straps to dig in despite the band being tight enough. The wires are also too wide for me and since the bra wasn't in the best condition I decided to reshape them. My experiment with the wires helped some but it still rides down. The gore is also not narrow enough for me and the straps are too far apart adding to the discomfort. A size down would definitely be too small so this is not a size issue, it just isn't the right shape for me.

This bra is SO pretty. I would love to keep it if it didn't look so funny on my boobs. Unfortunately it seems to be the complete opposite shape to what my boobs need so I'll be sending it back before I turn around and knock someone out with my breastorpedoes.
It feels narrow and very projected, but there is a lot of space between my boobs which I am not fond of. I feel like I could fit a third boob the same size in between my breasts, and they definitely want to be closer together. Another one that's not for me.

Cups and gore are slightly too wide for me and there's not enough projection. The fabric is comfortable and does support my breast well.

I was hoping for a comfortable wireless bra to just wear when I want a little support but the lace around the band is itchy and there's a little bit of quadboob.

Bought used. Feels softer (clothes/wires) than Tango II
Band is tight for a 30, using an extender.

This bra is very pretty to look at and comfortable, but the cups are a tiny bit too big for me. It is enough that it might not be a problem, but in addition to that, I think 28 bands are really the best for me right now. Wearing this one on the middle hooks right from the start and knowing I could probably be comfortably wearing it on the tightest hooks does not bode well for longevity.

This bra is made fairly well. The material is soft and so is the lace. The gore is a little high for my liking but this will not keep me from wearing this bra. It has moderately projecting cups, fully adjustable straps and a fairly stiff band. However, for a 30G I don't think 2 sets of hooks are enough. I wish it had at least 3. The straps are soft but really stretchy. Not sure if they will support the weight of my breasts without digging in. All in all it is a good fit for me. I have an even amount of breast tissue on top and bottom that is fairly projected, not too close together but not wide set either.

This is probably a better fit for FOB or someone who is less projected. Maybe short roots?!? Not an expert but going off of how it fit me that would be my best guess. I had a major quad boob effect from this bra. I don’t think I can go up a size because the wires will be too wide and I’m not sure I would get the depth I need. It does have a stretch in it but unfortunately it’s closed on top, well... on me it is.

This is an interesting one. The 30G was noticeably too small when properly swooped and scooped. For reference with other Panache bras, I can fit into a 30G on the Jasmine and the Envy, but need a 30GG on this Idina and the Clara. With the Envy, Clara, and Jasmine I get wrinkling at the bottom of the cups due to lack of immediate projection. This problem seemed to be nonexistent/very minimal in the Idina, which I was very excited about. This bra is SUPER comfortable. The band does feel very stretchy, though, and could probably be sized down.

This is a nice bra, similar to the Envy with a slightly lower gore and shorter cup. I prefer the Envy because for whatever reason the Envy is more comfortable on me, maybe because the fabric on the bottom of the cup is stretchier on the Envy. However, the shape of the Jasmine is phenomenal, high and round, while the shape of the Envy is much pointier/lower. The stretch lace top accommodates FOT ladies pretty well. I do get wrinkling in the bottom of the cup from not enough immediate projection. Overall, this is pretty good but not perfect bra for me.

Didn't work for me. Really scratchy material, surprisingly. The band seemed shorter than the band on the Envy and the wires were digging in pretty badly at the bottom of the cup. I think the wires at my armpits were too short. The stretch lace is lovely, though, and the cups contained all my tissue well (except for around the armpits) with no quadboobing.

I feel like I wanted to like this bra a lot but couldn't make it happen. The cups were way too big in the G but in the FF they didn't offer enough shape to my vvvvv soft center-full FOB breasts. Especially my right breast was just so....weird with the side support things. Also the full coverage just felt like so much fabric for my frame. Small rib cage and small shoulders and then a sea of lace. Eep. I'm just barely learning how good bra fit works, but I can tell this isn't it (sadly!)

About me: size 30FF/G or 32F/FF but most comfortable in 30G. Very projected, close set breasts with short and narrow roots. Even vertical fullness and center full. Best fitting bra is Cleo Lily in 30G.
I really wanted to like this bra, because it's beautiful and the lattice at the top is different from anything that I have. Unfortunately, this bra fits me very poorly. The wires on this are pretty long, so they poke into my armpits on the sides. The center gore is both high and wide, and since I'm so close set, it floats a little. I usually have issues with ... gores either floating or poking into my breasts, but it seems to be worse in this bra. I have tiny shoulders, so the straps are way too far apart for me.
Even though a lot of people have said that this bra runs big, this colorway (black floral SS16) seems to run small on me. The back band is very firm, and I'm getting in cup quadding on my larger side. This doesn't seem to be a shape mismatch since I fit well into similar bras like the Ellis.
As for pros, I think that this bra is beautiful and classy looking. The fabric is comfortable and not itchy, and very supportive for soft tissue. It has great projection and gives a nice, rounded shape. Despite the gore issues, this bra still manages to give me good separation.
I may try altering this bra since it's so pretty. I also really want to try the Ivory color to see if some of the fit issues that I had were limited to this colorway.
