Didn't fit
I ordered this bra and the 28HH Tango II at the same time, and at first was unsure which to wear. In the beginning I was worried it was too tight and that the wires under my armpits were high, wide, and cutting off my circulation. I took it off halfway through the workday the first time I wore it.
This is probably a testament to the troubles I've had finding a good bra, plus I've complicated it by trickling down a little in weight and inches! It also could be that after some wearing, this bra broke in a bit. I now can fasten it on the third hook and have it be comfortable, and there's certainly some extra space in the top of the cups.
Overall, however, the fit issues seem to be ones I often run into with Panache -- the cups and wires are high and end too widely under my arms. The wires on this bra basically line up with the back edge of my arm pit. I think I've ended up with the larger cup sizes in this brand partially because I get a lot of unused space to the sides. And I'm not sure my root is even particularly narrow! The high gore is also an issue, and my worst jabbing comes from the top of the wires against my sternum even after I've given them a bit of bending.
This is now, however, one of my daily bras. The black mesh is pretty , soft, and has a substantial feel without being stiff or scratchy.
