I usually wear anything around 34K-L so I had to size up in band to get the cup volume I need. I love the cute Butterfly print and that it is apparently modelled after the Panache Jasmine Balconnet Bra (6951). I have to say that it only shares the same cut with the Jasmine but the lace section on top of the Sculptresse bra is not stretchy at all. I think that actually makes the bra more stable and sturdy. I had issues with the Jasmine being too weak for my boobs so I had high hopes Sculptresse's take on the popular cut.

What made it a failure? It come up very small in the cups compared to older models like Sculptresse Bellise Balconnet Bra (6891) and Sculptresse Willow Full Cup Bra (6905) . I can fit into Bellise in a 38J since the cups run big and do not even have to alter the band since it comes up small and I can wear it on the tightest setting.

With the Paradise I have visible quadboob and the band feels much too big. Since I found the old Sculptresse styles to come up big in the cups and small in the band compared to a usual Panache bra in that size (for example Ariza or Tango) I think that this bra is now actually true to size and fits like every other Panache 38J or even a bit small in the cups.

This bra is not owned any more
