Hasn't set fit

Will update after wearing for a bit. My first impressions:

First of all, I got this with the intention of wearing it as a sleeping bra/around the house. It was on super sale and after shipping was under $25, and at this price point, I'm really impressed by the quality of this bra. The fit is not *perfect*; the gore doesn't fully tack on me and I get some very soft lapping at the top on my slightly full on top bust, but it's comfortable and I don't feel the need for an extender. The band seems quite curved, being tapered a fair bit more toward the bottom than my usual Panache bras. On the website, I noticed this band seemed to dig into the models less than other examples, and this is also true for me.

The flex wire is sturdier than I expected, but still more flexible than my usual bras. I used their size recommendation from their quiz while also cross referencing the US to UK size chart (I wear a 32GG in most Panache) . I put in that my bust is full in the middle, which recommends a cup size up, which was a good idea. Probably one size up from this would be even better, but I would buy this again even at this size. The straps are nice and firm. Though there are no strap stays, it's not incredibly bouncy. I find the lace soft and comfortable, and the elastic at the top of the lace helps keep in it place (the lace has no stretch, but a bit of ease is worked into the elastic).

Light Grey colorway
