Such a lovely print! Beautiful flowers in petrol and purple, a really wintery design.
The good parts; Jasmine has soft felted straps, a firm band, 3 hooks (from GG cups), nice stretchy lace on top and very firm supportive fabric in the lower cups.

However, Jasmine does seem to be my Goldilocks bra?
Hard to find the perfect size!

I love my Animal Jasmine in 30GG, wear it a lot but it's somewhat small.
So I sized up in Ricamo, 30H - rubs my armpits and wrinkles in the bottom.
Bought a cheap older color (Navy floral) in 32GG to see if the tight band was the problem, but that one's almost unbearably chafey in my armpits.

Tried this new design in 32G (too flimsy & small), 32GG (too chafey) 30GG (this one) and 30H (same issues as Ricamo). Panache does seem to keep their fit pretty consistent in different Jasmine colorways. In the end I decided 30GG is best for me, but still not perfectly comfortable.. Kind of wide straps, some wire poking, band could be sliiightly looser. Not perfectly in my IMF (seems hard for me to get bras to stay there 😒) And I'm still not a fan of the mesh-like fabric that is somewhat scratchy. All not dealbreakers, but things I suppose they could improve on.

Maybe after first being SO impressed by Jasmine's gravity defying performance as an unlined bra, I'm also getting more critical these days.

Perhaps they could learn from Comexim and produce a Jasmine with straps moved in?
And use the 4x eye setting and supersoft fabrics from Ewa? 😁

  awww, we can only wish right? I have a similar issue with unlined Cleos. My 32G red Minnie is as close to perfect as it gets, but all other color ways or variations on that cut are either a bit loose on top (32G), a tad small in the cup (32FF), causing ever so slight in cup quad boob, or chafe a little in my armpits (32G).

  Oh well, I chalk it up to me becoming more perfectionistic as my bra knowledge progresses ;-)

  I would still love to try the Jasmine and the Floris (I've never tried any Panache bras), but I'm currently on a little Ewa shopping spree...

• Yeah if only all bra producers did custom alterations! 👌🏼

  my focus is currently on my Comexim and Ewa wishlists as well.. Tried my first EM (Kwiaty) this summer and I've been wanting to buy Kicia for ages. Also reeaaally like Comexim Yoko. Just a little apprehensive as their wires seem slightly too narrow for me.

  If you're still considering them, I've been pretty pleased about Panache - firm bands, sturdy under wires, generally good quality. Mostly wider than Polish bras though.

• Thank you for this review! I have lost a little bit more weight since I posted my Panache Tango II 30HH and just got a Marcie in 30H that was hilariously too big. I was thinking about the Jasmine but I will have to think more. This at least helped me confirm what many reviews I've been reading saying that this bra is a completely random fit; if it does, its a dream and if it doesn't its just sad and uncomfortable. :/
