Used to be my favourite bra for a long time. Sadly my boobs decided to grow again. I need now a 32K/32KK in other Panache bras (like Floris and Melody) and probably a 32L in Ariza.
pros +
+ gives a uplifted round shape
+ full on top friendly
+ very sturdy construction
+ wires are a bit narrower than on most panache bras (Tango, Melody, Floris)
+ band is very firm and barely stretches out with wear
+ very supportive, gives "boobs of steel" feeling
cons -
- fabric is a bit itchy at first wears
- shoulder straps can dig in
- wire pain since the wires are very very stiff (but that also makes the bra so supportive for big / heavy boobs) but also note that I get pain from wires digging in in all my bras when I wear them a full day, because the bras have to carry a lot of weight
about this colorway: it runs imo a half cup size small / the top section is a bit less full on top friendly than on other colors
also beware, band is less firm in +JJ sizes, so go with you usual band size even if other reviews say to size up (bands runs 1 size small in J - cups and under)
