I just got this bra in the mail today and it is the best fitting bra I have ever owned. With that being said, it is far from perfect but that is mainly because I have been wearing the wrong size bras most of my adult life and now have ginormous omega breasts. On top of that, my left boob is almost 2 whole cups bigger than the right.

The 34K - Panache » Jasmine (6951) gave me a lift that I never thought was possible for my extremely heavy breasts. The wires creaked under the weight for the first hour or so but now have quieted down. The wires are much narrower than my Elomi Caitlyn Underwire Side Support (8030) and Goddess Keira Banded Underwire (6090) and they actually sit on the outer edge of my rib cage instead of my back. It is still a smidgen too tall, poking under my right arm while the wire holding in my larger left boob feels like it is barely there.

Before trying this bra, I stayed away from anything that was not full cup because I thought being a bigger size meant that I needed fuller coverage to avoid spillage which occurred anyway. Even tho I am jiggling and wiggling more in this cup style, my girls stay put even when I bend over. I actually feel more secure in the Jasmine than I ever did in my Elomi or Goddess.

The cup separation is the best I have ever had in a bra but its a wee bit too wide, giving my close set boobs that east/west look. The cups are very deep, deeper than I thought was possible (thanks in part to the stretch lace). After doing my measurements properly with the help of this site, I found out that I have full on top boobs but didn't realize how full until I got this bra, I have 2 inches of empty fabric at the bottom of the cups! O.O

Jasmine's gore has gotten the closest to my sternum than any other bra I have ever owned, but it is still about an inch from tacking. My other bras, the gore would float on TOP of my breasts, not even close to getting in between them.

The band sits flat and stays put on my 33.5 inch ribcage at the loosest hook and is comfortably snug. I feel extremely supported from down there, which is a wonderful change from bras that use to float and shift around on the bottom of my boobs.

The straps are perfect, they are padded and very comfortable. They are wider set than I am use to but feel great! And for the first time in my life, I didn't need to over tighten the straps to feel secure or get the lift I wanted, in fact, I am wearing the straps at the loosest setting!

As I said in the beginning, the Panache Jasmine (6951) is the best fitting bra I have ever owned, and has really helped me narrow down what I need to look for in a bra to get closer to the perfect fit!

• This is my fave bra (i'm full on bottom). I'm hoping that the more people like it, the more colors we can get! yay for finding your best bra ever! I hear you on the crazy big boobs! hopefully they will also start making bigger cups too!

• Yay! I LOVE the shape it gives me, very natural, rounded and uplifted. I look and feel 10 years younger!

  I have seen a few colors so far but are mostly vendor exclusives. I got mine at Bare Necessities and they have 3 other color ways available at different sizes.

  This bra seems like a good in between. And the lace does a good job of containing my full on top boobs. but if I could fill the empty fabric on the bottom, I believe most of my other fit issues would be resolved.

  I am gonna try an Ewa Michalak bra next but I am not sure which style, as I am pretty sure I would not be able to afford the return as I am in New York.

  Any suggestions?

• aphrospice The BM cut is basically the same sort of thing as the Jasmine; a rounded balcony style with stretch lace on top. So, if you like the Jasmine, that could be a good choice.

  Other than that, the other options in your size range are the S (padded medium cut balcony), SM (unpadded medium cut balcony) and PL (lower cut plunge). You need to have the right kind of boobs and frame for PL to work on you in this size range and a lot of people don't, but S and SM are pretty good.

  Resale value on EM is reasonable, they tend to go for $40 US new with tags, so even if the size isn't right, it won't be a total loss for you.

• Ereshiy So funny you should mention the BM, I was just going through EM's blog and saw the Bm Gwiezdny Pył and promptly added it to my wishlist. They dont have it in my suggested size so I'll have to custom order it. It does look very promising! Now I just need to get the funds for this beauty!

  I am scared of plunges, my boobs are pretty massive and have a life of thier own. But then again, the Jasmine contains them quiet well so.. I will keep an eye out for something here in my size to grab.

  Thank you for the resale numbers, I will mos def make the investment. The Jasmine really helped me figure out that from what I read about EM bras that they are will probably be the closest I will come to the perfect fit.
