I have even breasts with wide and tall roots.

(I have this bra in two colorways, and will make the reviews match.)

Very cute bra. The mesh panel across the top of the cup is gorgeous! In this size range, it is accommodating to tall roots moderately well.

I wish the side panel were a bit higher, as I see a ever-so-slight bulge above the end of the wire--almost as if the underwires are slightly too narrow, but I do not think they are.

With significant wear, the thread on the sides of the mesh panel start to get fuzzy.

I ordered this from Zulily, as I thought it was a 30DD. Sizes seemed to skip DD, so I thought it was just an aesthetic sizing system and that 30E in this bra would still be a 30:5. However, I think I am wrong. It seems to be about a cup size too large--I ended up giving to my 30F roommate, whom it definitely fits better but is a tad small. So, I think this bra does probably fit like a true UK 30E.

Nice fabric and beautiful color.

I have wide, even breast with tall roots.

I was actually surprised this worked for me! I think there is some space in the bottom of the cup, as if it is too projected, but it doesn't seem to create a problem. There is wrinkling at the bottom of the cup that is apparent when not wearing the bra--seems to be a result of the sewing of the outside fabric to the cup; I'm not sure.

This bra doesn't seem to cut in much, if at all, to my tall roots (which is what I expected to happen!). The bra material is very nice to the touch and comfortable to wear. Gives a great shape. I love the feel of band.

This is a copy-paste of my review from my other Panache Sport in lime--they fit exactly the same on me, thankfully! In this size range, this bra is good for shallow breasts with gradually-sloping tall roots, as mine are. Oh, and I ne

I have wide, even breasts with tall roots.

There is no cutting into my tall roots on the top--great fit there.

Very tight band, reminiscent of Cleo bands. This bra is SO CUTE and feels very well made.

The underwires are strange--they feel much more flexible than normal wires. It is hard to feel them at all. I didn't realize that the bra was actually ... sitting well below my inframammary fold at first. I tried adjusting it upward but I find it more comfortable a bit below--however, it's hard to tell where the wires even are due to their strangeness, and I'm not sure the wire placement matters as much for a sports bra.

It gives a nice round, and uplifted-but-slightly-minimized shape. I would definitely wear this as a normal bra on some days.

Due to the shape and construction of the bra, I had some difficulty on the S&S.

Can update this review after the next game of ultimate frisbee!

update: This sports bra is AWESOME! I don't have large breasts, but the fact that I never thought about what I was wearing or what my boobs were doing proves that everything was in place (and I could focus on the game!).

This bra did not work well for me. It may be because I am not a fan of plunges; it felt very strange to me to not have the support and structure I expected.

It is comfortable and cute; just fits very strangely on my breasts.

I have worn this bra three times now. It is actually a size too small, but the cut accommodates my even breasts to actually fit relatively well considering the size difference (though as I wear it more, it seems to feel artificially tight since the cups do not quite fit). Band seems to be pretty firm. The bra gives a nice and rounded shape (and the pattern is super cute! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />). The feeling of the gore digging into my sternum has gone away completely by the third wear.

Does not fit me; bought for a friend. Very firm band.

I have even, shallow breasts, with somewhat tall roots,

Though I vaguely recall the bra cutting into the top of my breasts when I first tried it on in February, it fits perfectly now (I updated my measurements just in case).

Feels like a standard 28" Cleo band, but with a low gore and a partial band.

I have even breasts, tallish roots, average-to-wide roots.

I was so worried that this was going to be horribly uncomfortable to wear once I took it out of the box and felt that weird, cardboard-y support in the cup. But I actually find this to be quite comfortable!

I am a bit worried about wearing something like this strapless, since the band is so short vertically and the cups are pretty tall. But luckily there's a lot of potential adjustment on the band (long strap adjuster with a singular large G-hook) so I can tighten it a lot. Runs a tight which is good for me as a 30 band ... is a little too large for me.

I am genuinely very surprised at how well the cups fit; it almost FEELS like I'm going to pop out (just due to the construction lol, half of my breasts aren't covered!!) but I think it really is very secure and makes my breasts look good but natural (no smooshing them together in the center).

Obviously being so small I don't really need much "support," and I don't think this bra is super supportive as much as it is for shaping and nipple coverage, but that's ok for me.

I don't predict needing to wear this often lol but I am very glad to have it around.

I think even if my breasts grow at some point in the future that the style of this bra would be forgiving of a larger cup size (probably would not do well for a smaller cup size than the size though) since it is so low-coverage and not supportive in a traditional way.

This is the first time I am wearing it. The band feels very firm--I am truly a 28E, and I think would work well for other 28 band wearers. Something in the back of the band is slightly uncomfortable, though--it is itchy and kind of pokes me, but I may attach some softer fabric to cover the clasp area there to see if it will help.

EDIT 8/11/14: Third time wearing it, after washing it last night (albeit in a laundry detergent). Back of band that previously seemed itchy is now comfortable and unnoticeable. Whole band seems to have been broken in to feel ... like a fairly true to size 30, rather than my previous comment about 28s.

EDIT 9/4/14: This bra fits well but I think gives a slightly pointier shape than I would like.

EDIT 15 Feb 2015 before rehoming: I decided this didn't really fit because of my tall roots, and therefore the top of the cup cuts in/wrinkles there (this wasn't a big deal when I had first gotten it, but now that I have better fits, I don't really wear it).
