I had high expectations for this bra. Similarly constructed bras Panache Jasmine and Envy did not work for me.
So to start on a positive note:
The bra looks really pretty and well made. The fabric with overlaying lace is soft and good quality. The lace upper cup is very stretchy. Also there is no elastic ribbon at the cup edge, so no cutting in. I also really liked the round shape I got in this bra.
The bad:
The bra just felt very unsupportive! It only features a 2 hook closure in this size. The band feels thin and flimsy and not supportive enough for a heavy bust. ... (32HH is still a large size!) I found that a lot of weight was on the straps. Also they are very narrow would cut in easily. The wire width was okay but I found the wings to be too low. It's not that breast tissue would escpae (as the option I had to choose here said) but I think a taller wing would give more support. There was also quite a bit of jiggling when I moved (as expected with a soft stretchy lace) but I found it was too much. Weirdly I even had some slight gaping going on where the strap meet the cups... I really don't understand. I usually wear even a 32J in Bravissimo Alana so this bra here is NOT too big.
Anyway overall it just felt too weak and I wouldn't not recommend it, if you looking for supportive everyday bra in that size range.
I'd love to try 30J or 30JJ and see if they fit me better since those sizes have 3x3 closure and extra lining for support.

This whole move to 2 hooks sucks. Have you tried Elomi in 32H or HH? They have three hooks.
