I got this bikini from another Bratabase member and was going to alter the band down to 30DD / 28E. I read somewhere that this bikini runs big in the cups, but that´s not true. Boy are the cups too small for me! I usually wear 28F in Panache (or 30E in P swimwear). Panache Isobel bandeau bikini cups were way too small for me in 30E and I sized up to 30FF to realise that the cups are probably the wrong shape for me. I think I should size up to at least 32DD / 30E in Amelia, but I have my doubts that cup shape still would not be ideal for me. Maybe I should just give up on Panache bandeau styles...

I really like the look of this bikini, the cut and the fabric, and I´m thinking of keeping it although the fit is not good (this probably is not a good idea, but ... meh https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />) . If I don´t swoop & scoop, it doesn´t look that bad at all.

There are removable straps that adjust all the way. There is no silicone elastic at all which makes me wonder if the bikini stays up without straps. The same goes true for Panache Isobel bandeau bikini as well. Both bikini tops feel secure when wearing them so maybe the silicone missing is not an issue.

I alo got matching bottom briefs in UK10. I think they run true to size because they are a bit small for me and I usually wear UK12.

This bra is not owned any more
