Short roots, projected, center full, close set, slightly narrow, omega shape, short waisted,....

The band is a bit short. You may want to size up. My under bust is 28" and the 30FF was too tight for breathing https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />

This size fits much better than I anticipated. The cups fit my short-waisted physique well. In several other sports bras, my one complaint was the cup digging into a tendon in front of my shoulder. 32E is one size smaller than I usually wear and my tendon is happy.

However, this smaller size creates a different issue. My lymph nodes begin screaming within a few ... minutes from compression. The cup doesn't quite accommodate my full on bottom tissue. So, it spills over into the gore and into my underarm. Because this is wire free, the gore spill is comfortable and acceptable. However, the underarm spill and subsequent compression hurts.

Because my exercise is often short in duration, the discomfort may be tolerable. Certainly, the bounce is minimal which is my primary concern.

This bra is the most projected wireless bra I have encountered. However, like many wireless bras and several wired bras, the cup collapses and the band digs in while I sit. For me, this really is an "exercise only" bra. The shape is round and my prominent nipples are shrouded. Although I won't choose to wear this all day, I can create an impressive list of reasons why someone else would want to wear it all day.

This is the first proper sports bra I have and I'm amazed at the support and coverage it gives. My shape is projected, full on top and centre, with tall and narrow roots, soft and self-supporting tissue, and super close-set. My usual UK size is 28FF/G depending on how open on top the bra is.

The band runs true to size but it feels like the 3 rows of hooks gives a snugger or more secure fit than usual. The cups are wide, tall and shallow, which makes it compressive and high coverage, so everything is held in place. I got the wireless version because the too wide wires ... and gore would become a problem for my narrow and close-set boobs, probably making it uncomfortable.

The straps come with a hook to turn it into a racerback, but in the pictures the straps are already in the loosest setting so I'm not sure how I could use the hooks. This is not a problem for me, as I don't need to wear the bra as a racerback, but if you have a long torso/ low set boobs, the straps might not be long enough for you.

Ordered this one recently as I have been trying bras consistently for quite a while now, on my never ending hunt for the one unicorn bra that will be comfortable to wear for every day, I thought I might try a sportsbra for a change (And hoping a fitting sports bra would motivate me to go for runs again lol)


First of all, I love the design of this bra. I love the color combo. And I love the build in J-Hooks. I love the look the most when the straps are hooked to a ... Racerback.
If I wear the racerback bra to often it gets painfull tho as there's too much pressure on the nerves and trapezius muscle that sit right on the neck. Maybe the bands don't adjust long enough too, as you can see I can only wear the racerback when the bands are adjusted to max lenght.

I like that they offer a unwired version because wires are very often uncomfy for me. The Cups are padded and very spacious unlike a compressing sports bra.
It's overall pretty supportive and unlike the compressing sportsbra I've been wearing up until now my breasttissue doesn't try to find a way out, everything sits in the cup savely and doesn't slip under the band, quad or squeezes out on the sides.


The paint on the plastic J-hooks comes off super easy, the first time I closed the hooks a chunk of the orange color came off. Not a big issue but it's a thing I'd try to avoid if I was a bra maker.

I'm practically living in this sportsbra now until I find (or make) my unicorn bra.

I purchased this bra by mistake, I thought it was the underwired one which I have loved for several years.
Here's how this one fits on me right now :
Firstly, this is the wrong size for me. I should have ordered at least one cup size up, maybe two. I have quad-bood effect in the tiny cleavage it creates on me. I kept it as a lounge bra because it was the second I ordered (first one fitted me even worse) and like a fool I have cut the tag right out of the package. Stupid, impatient me !

The band is tight enough and comfortable, but I feel it ... is maybe not as supportive without the wires, because the straps dig painfully into my shoulders and adjusting them doesn't change that.
In this bra my boobs are squished together and not separated at all. It is not uncomfortable but this bra is more what we call in France a brassiere than a bra. I don't know if it's because it's too small in the cups, or if it's just the cut of this bra, of it's because my boobs are very squishy and soft to begin with.
I was surprised by the very good quality of the material for a non wired bra. It should last a long time without becoming too stretched on women who get a good fit with it. I still feels it should be less expensive that the underwired one, but it's the same price.
The color is coral on the center part and purple elsewhere, it is VERY flashy especially the coral and shows under light-colored clothing.
Also on a side note, it doesn't suppress bounce at all, but the underwired sports bra is like this also on me.

I would not recommend this bra for women with big boobs who like to be supported and comfortable all day long. I would rather recommend its underwired version, which is far superior in support and comfort even when it is ill-fitting, believe it or not !

This bra might be life-changing. I've never had a proper sports bra that actually fit me before. Before, I used to just wear 2 sports bras and hope for the best. It worked, but it was very tight and my boobs would be squashed together. Peeling the things off after a sweaty workout was almost a workout in itself.

The Panache sports bra is a game-changer! There's no wires, but the cups are molded in such a way that they lift and separate my breasts. The cups hold my breasts in place and keeps them from bouncing around. There's also a J-hook at the back for more support, or ... to coordinate with your top. The neckline is high enough that my boobs won't fall out during yoga inversions. In fact, it covers enough of me that I think I'd feel comfortable wearing it without a shirt over top at the gym.

The band hugs my ribcage - my boobs don't feel like they're trying to escape beneath the band (a big problem I'd get in sm/med/lg sized bras where I'd have to size up to fit my breasts). I love the fact that there's a proper closure at the back - no more trying to wiggle out of a sweaty bra after a workout.

Edit: Update December 2016 - 3 months of owning this bra:

The band has gotten very stretched very quickly. It was never all that supportive so I only wore it one to two times a week for the duration of a workout (not the whole day or anything) and still, the band unstretched is now 26", and it stretches to a ridiculous 33.5". I've only hand washed and laid flat to dry so I'm really disappointed overall with the quality of this bra. The band is just too loose to even wear for exercise anymore, and I have other bras that are more comfortable for lounging. ... I hope others have had better experiences, but I wouldn't buy another unwired Panache Sport and wouldn't recommend one to anyone in my size range.



---------------------------------
Well - I read reviews of this bra so I knew about the bottom of the cup folding issue. For me so far it's not uncomfortable and doesn't seem to show under tops but I do worry about the cup collapsing more and the straps having to compensate and take more weight. Mostly I feel great working out in this bra because I've been wearing badly stretched out sports bras with too little room in the cups for years, basically forever. I get migraines from nerve trigger points on my shoulders and neck - so it's something I'm really aware of - I just didn't know there were bras with less painful straps! Which makes me wonder... I always thought my nerve problems were related to repeated shoulder dislocations as a swimmer in high school and college - but now I'm wondering if others with large busts have this issue? I dont have a particularly small frame and didn't feel I suffered from the back issues smaller boned busty women frequently have, but perhaps my breasts have been more physically challenging for my body to lug around that I realized!

Anyway, this bra is still a tad too small for me, I've got some quadding at the top of the cups and the cup (even the fold area) is fully filled - I think the bottom of the cup fold is a construction or design issue, because there are two layers of fabric, I'm fully filling the internal coral shaped cup part but somehow on the outside it looks like there's empty space.

I like this encapsulation design, though for me there is still some compression since I'm being pushed up out of the bra. Panache sport cups seem giant and I didn't want to be swimming around in a sports bra, but if I bought this again I'd go with the 30H, which I believe is the largest size they make in this style. Probably because the weight of breasts that large can't be adequately supported by the design, hence the bottom of the boob fold.

One note about measurements - I think the other reviewer may have had a typo in her bust perimeter measurement, On a full inhale my perimeter in this bra was 40" and I believe the initial measurements say 48. Since the rest of our measurements line up quite well, I don't believe this bra could physically be stretched to an overbust perimeter of much more than 40", the material is not elastic and I fill the cups completely with some overflow, I suspect 38 was the actual overbust measurement. So beware if you have a >40 overbust measurement and thought this might fit due to the other set of measurements.

This bra does feel supportive, but in this size range I must agree with the other reviewers and say it doesn't reduce bounce or jiggling the way a good compression bra would. I never had luck running in my wired panache sport either though, for the record, though it probably wasn't properly fitted either.

I hula hooped rather aerobically in this bra for a half hour yesterday and it felt great - plenty of stability and took so much weight I'm used to off my shoulders. Yoga today was also great wearing this bra. I've jumped around some and expect it won't do so well on the treadmill - it doesn't stand up to that kind of repeated vertical motion. For that, in this size range, I'm thinking I'll have to go to a compression style bra... or a couple layered together.

This is...not good. I only tried this on because I was in Nordstrom Rack and spotted it for sale. I have never tried the wireless model and I wanted to see how it fit. I had a ton of bounce, but that's not really surprising given that it's at least 1 cup size too small. It really is a nicely made bra, just not a good fit. Other than it being too small, I don't think that the non-wired look is for me https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

Like the wired version, I think this is just incompatible with my shape. I bought this to teach and practice yoga in (in public -- in private i wear no bra or cotton 'sports' bras). It does the job OK. The cup doesn't cover enough side/armpit boob, and the wings are not deep enough in that area. At the same time there is extra room at the top of the cup, so if i were really trying to get a lot of support (i'm not) I def wouldn't be able to. When I first put this on it looks good, but like all wireless bras except enell, my ... boobs eventually win and sag down. The racerback hook provides more lift, but at the expense of my neck and shoulders. This is definitely a lot less support than the wired bra.

What i like: that the molded cup gives me psychological support because I know my boobs are well covered. It's pretty cute. It's comfy.

The band is too big, but that's my fault for getting a 38 i guess. That said i wear a 38 in all other Panache, incl the wired sports bra, so go figure.

update a year later: even though this bra is a technically pretty bad fit, I wear it alllllll the time, as it gives a far better shape than any other wireless I've tried. Glad I got a 38 now as I've gained weight and the band fits perfectly.

Very comfy and almost no bounce. Band is perfect. Have a weird crease in the bottom of the cups and I can kinda feel the bottom of the cups collapsing when wearing, but not enough to bother me. I wonder if it is due to lack of immediate projection or because I have such a high prominent tummy..
