Staying_Abreast

I bought this bra second-handed here. It is almost as new, with one exception: the right cup arrived very slightly dented (around 1-2 cm), possibly from postal handling. This does not affect in any way the support or fit, which are great.

The Panache Sport wired bra is my favourite sports bra, and I am glad to have two of those.

This bra seems well-made, but has an utilitarian look. I wish it would have a lace detail, a prettier shade of beige or at least a satiny fabric...

I needed a strapless bra for a special dress, so I bought this one. However, none of the strapless bras I tried did actually fit well.

The Evie was the most projected I tried and as I was slightly thinner it worked well enough... as long as I don't swoop and scoop much. It does quadboob on the top line. I would need it to be more open a bit, but still projected like this one. I tried several cup-band combinations but ... none was perfect. I did need a projected bra for that dress (a flowy one, so I needed the bust projection to make it look right) .

(I also tried the Cleo Koko in several sizes, which gave me a beautiful round "butt" cleavage but made my breasts very flat and cut on the outer part (near the armpits). I tried a lot of sizes and even when the cup was already a little empty it still cut near the armpit. It could have been my choice if the dress had a V-neckline. The Porcelain was worse than both these).

This is a very beautiful bra. 3-part cup with flower lace on the transparent top and swirls on the semi-transparent bottom. It is a very, very beautiful bra with a look I love, elegant, sexy and chic.

I bought several 34C bras strongly discounted when I found this size was a major improvement over the 34B and 36A which I was wearing before.

Unfortunately, now that I know better I see that the band is too big and the cups cut me on the top center of my breasts. The cups are quite roomy for a 34C, pretty much on the projected/almost pointy side of the shallow/projected spectrum.

When viewed from the top it fits me beautifully. However, from the front and sides it clearly distorts my shape due to cutting (quadboobing).

I will check if 2 relatives of mine with smaller boobs want them. Otherwise they will all go for sale.

This is a sports bra that works and looks good. I have been wearing it for martial arts for a year and it is perfect. Not only does it keep everything in place (no bounce), it actually helps remove my boobs from under my arms and keep them lifted and centered.

It could even become a good bra for winter, as the shape is great and it is comfy https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I am a fan.

A very fresh and spring appropriate design. It's very pretty https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

This bra is made with that strong smooth laminate material in the lower cup so it should support well... If it were my correct cup size.

Unfortunately the cup is too small for me and my boobs distort it creating the upside-down 7 shape. The band fits true to size and is comfortable.

I ended up giving it to an older family member who has a slightly smaller cup size. She seemed to like it and I hope she will enjoy it https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

This is a very beautiful bra, almost luxurious-looking. Makes one wish to show it https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Both the satiny texture and the embroidery are very beautiful and classy.

The colour is a golden light olive green which is quite unusual and makes me very very happy.

Gives a wider fit than I usually wear, more of a lifted look than a projected look. Interestingly, under thick fitted clothes like winter sweaters, this actually makes my boobs look bigger (as in "more volume").

The band is sort of firm. This is not uncomfortable but it is not a barely there bra either.

This bra currently cuts a little on the top of my boobs. However, as I am on my period I will retry it when I am in a less full week.

Re-tested it: on a less full week only the top elastic cuts a little, but nothing uncomfortable or ugly. I have loosened the straps and this helps.

It gives a natural but lifted shape. Looks very streamlined and very nice. I love the look when I wish to wear something simple.

This is a very beautiful bra. 3-part cup with flower lace on the transparent top and swirls on the semi-transparent bottom. When it was tighter and it more or less fit me, it gave a semi-pointed (similar to how I see the Andorra fitting other people) uplifted shape.

I bought 3 of them (Ivory, white and navy blue) in 34C when I started checking bra sizes different than 34B and 36B which fit me horribly and it was a huge progress. For some reason, the 3 bras have quite different measurements. My size changed, and I learned I prefer smaller bands.

I am going to try to (massively, but in a reversible way) alter the oldest one of the 3 as this is a very, very beautiful bra with a look I love. If it works, I'll keep it, otherwise I'll undo the alterations and give it to a family member who wears 34C.

I own the beautiful cobalt colour.

It fits very well, giving a mix of natural and rounded lifted shape which is relaxed and nice for when you do not want to "show off" your boobs but still want a nice shape.

The bra material is nice. I am not sure whether the delicate top lace will last or not, time will tell.

I really like this bra.

This bra supports well and is comfortable. My boobs do not bounce at all. It also gives a nice shape.

I personally prefer the wired version because it has a little more immediate projection. The wireless cups, on my breasts, collapse just a little and are slightly too small. This is, however, a very minor issue and I really enjoy this bra.
