Which size Jasmine should I get?
Ok, I've finally decided to figure out if Panache Jasmine (6951) fits me. I ran a comparison with Panache Tango Ii Balconette (3251) and Panache Ariza Balconnet Bra (5051) ; sizes 32H, 32HH, 34GG and 34H.
Despite the similar band lengths on Tango and Ariza, I've found my 32HH Ariza to be too tight (have to wear an extender) while 32H Tangos are fine. Possibly because my Tangos are well aged and actually stretch closer to 90 cm. So I guess I should go for a 34 band in Jasmine too, since I'm buying it new?
The cups in Tango are a little bit too shallow, both on top and bottom, but that's because of wire distortion. The cups in Ariza are ok in the bottom, but there's too much fabric on the the top half (doesn't really bother me). And the cups are a little wide on both (again, wire distortion on Tango). Would Jasmine have enough bottom depth/projection in 34GG or should I go for 34H? Any other considerations?
(Would be so much easier if I had a job and could afford to buy locally, so I could get several sizes to try on and return the ones that don't fit...)

Both the Tango and Ariza run small in the cup and the band. A 32 could work with the Jasmine, but I'd keep some extenders around just in case. As for the cup size, I'm pretty sure the Jasmine runs larger than both the Tango and Ariza. You might be good in a 32GG or 32H (though don't let that discourage you from trying 34G and 34GG).
If you are getting first version of Jasmine, go for 32gg, I'vve got in in 32h and it's soo tight ( my underbust is 74cm). Latest, Champagne version is not so tight.
