The Panache Jasmine is a full-cup bra available in 30-38 D-K, and one of the best designs on the UK full-bust market at the moment. Here's how I found it.

Didn't fit
The red/floral colourway is gorgeous, but it just doesn't fit. I'm about a 30KK in most bras now (30K Ariza slightly too small, 30K Brav balconettes slightly too small), and this seems to be too big. There's excess material at the top of the cup (by the strap), and I have wrinkling at the bottom/side (though I think this is more due to the shape/width of the wires).
The band and cups both run big, so I would say the 30K fits more like a "standard" 32K (possibly KK). The wires are slightly wider than the Ariza's, so they're relatively narrow/mid-range, though they are lower at the side. I found the straps pretty wide-set and the side of the cup quite tall, which meant the cup cuts into my arms if I try to tighten the straps. On that note, the straps are only partially adjustable - the most you can shorten them by is about two inches, nowhere near enough for me, so they're no good for anyone who needs short straps.
I'm planning on exchanging for a 30JJ (possibly 30J), so we'll see if that works any better. A 28K would be preferable, but no 28s from Bravissimo. It did seem to give a pretty good shape, so hopefully I can find a half-decent size.This bra is not owned any more
