The band is fairly firm, as I expected. It is very comfortable, even the center gore, which is moderately tall on me. Doesn't dig in on me. One cup size too small I think, get a bit of quadding out the top. I am hoping to get this in a 30GG, it is so cute! I generally do NOT like unlined bras, but I think I can make an exception for this one! The wings are too low on the sides, but I'm thinking should be ok in the correct cup size.

I love everything about this bra, but the way it fits me. The straps are constantly buckling, folding in half, or falling off. The underwires hurt my rib cage, and the band leaves heliotropic bruises and hot spots on my back.

I'm going to call this a brand mismatch; all the numbers say this should fit. However I constantly have these fit problems with panache. My ribs are prone to overlapping or "twisting" when too much pressure is on them. This overlaps is extremely painful, and wearing panache makes it a daily event.

I've tried all different sizes and cuts, but i always run into this, so the only thing for me to do is avoid panache. I adore the cut, colors, material and design of this bra, but it's too painful for me personally.

OUCH! The first time I wore this, the top of the wire at the gore dug into the inner side of my breast tissue and has left a dent in my skin that's still here after like 3 days! I have now bent the wires forward at the top and when I put it on it sits much more flatly on my chest rather than pushing into it. If you have problems with gores you may want to try it at home before going out and being stuck in it. Standing up straight with my arms back, it fits perfectly, but if i move my arms together the top wrinkles. I think it's a very full on top style.

I had an orange in the glass effect with this bra, where the fabric would wrinkle at the top, yet cut into my skin. Not the most ideal bra for someone with shallow breasts. Also, the line between the lace and the animal print part near the top can be seen through somewhat tight tops.

I've worn this bra a few times now, so I can actually make some worthwhile comments. This is actually one of my best fitting bras but some problems remain (whether I will ever be able to solve them is unknown)

* The wires seem too wide, I'm bulging out at the sides and they're under my arms.(this is probably partly due to the centre gore being too wide for me as well)
* Unless I keep perfect posture all day, the centre wires poke into my sternum - I think I have a bruise there from slouching yesterday.
* The straps are too far apart and want to saw my arms ... off. Of course, this wouldn't be such a problem if I didn't ever need to move my arms forward and it also seems to be par for the course for balconnets - can't someone make a balconnet with the straps just a smidge less wide?
* The centre gore doesn't sit completely flat but that's because there just isn't enough room between my breasts for it to sit flat.
* When I first put the fit in for this bra apparently I marked it as top of cup being wrinkly - to be honest, it's barely/if at all noticeable and I'd change it but I find it really difficult to figure out where to go on this site to change things once they're done.

When I was fitted at Bravissimo, for some reason she said that I should be wearing it on the smallest hook. Not only did that not make sense to me but it was damn uncomfortable so I wear it on the loosest hook - it's still firm enough for me.

All of these issues are replicated in my Cleo Juna.

I also agree with another reviewer who felt that the mesh did not match the animal print, maybe they had heaps of that mesh and needed to use it up?
