Bra fitting help » Underwires push into my stomach fat
Panache » Ana Plunge (9396) » 38E 38:6
My only problem with this bra is the bottom arc of the underwire pushing into my stomach when I sit down. It hurts really bad and I couldn’t wear the bra after a couple of hours.

helpfulThe front photo shows your wires sitting too low on your torso as there is not enough room in the cup for your breast tissue. The wire should sit right in the breast crease. I know that some can get away with not having the wire firmly in place but if pain is an issue then you are not one of them. The mighty boobs can push down even more when you sit!
Again, a larger cup may work in this style but I am not too confident about that. It may be worthwhile to remeasure you and your bras - I know that I needed practice when I started to get a good picture of what I was starting with. It can then be valuable to look at what people are wearing who are your size AND look at pictures of other people in the same bra as what you have to see what a good and bad fitting bra looks like. Persistence!

helpfulPanache underwires are quite hard, some people need those hard materials for support. Personally, I find their underwires are too hard for comfort and I wear other brands.

Another thing to try: I like to wear bra liners to help with this issue!

Yes!!! Panache are NOTORIOUSLY stiff and undersized! Wash the bra in a bucket of fabric softener multiple times!

helpfulFrom the third photo, you can see that the band is far too tight for you--see how the side seam is bent like (? Do you have an extender? If not, I'd try this in a 40 band.
