That was a great review and so helpful! I feel like I know the ins and outs of this Andorra and can know what to expect from a purchase.
Love4Pollinators thanks! I was very surprised as I don't have many non-wired actual bras, not bralettes... I have none, to be honest. This is a very different experience and I am a bit on the fence here whether I find wired or non-wired bras more comfy.
The size range on this one is smaller than the older models. Bummer, it is nicer looking than Sophie and Alisha.
I've had this bra for a while but keep forgetting to add it. 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. It's supportive being a wireless bra and great for lounging at home or taking short walks. The band is true to size and the cups provides nice lift and coverage. I would say it's projected, wide and a little bit closed on top but it doesn't have wires so these are not issues for me.

This bra gets top marks for being the most comfortable bra I have owned so far. It fits in the sense that there is minimal wrinkling in the cups, that the fabric doesn’t dig in to any sensitive points (such as the armpits), and the fact the band has a fair amount of give without being too loose. Do bear this in mind if you find you’re in between sizes!
The material is another plus. who doesn’t love soft lace that stretches and doesn’t torture the skin around your underbust?
I’d say it technically doesn’t fit perfectly as the cups do measure rather wide especially for my roots, although I ... think that’s a common design feature of many non-wired, non-padded bras. I haven’t experienced any ill effects, like chafing, because of this.
You may or may not have noticed it gives a more vintage “pointed” look to the bust. Personally, I do like this but I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea hence why I wanted to point this out (mind the unintentional pun).
I will also note that the straps of this bra seem shorter than most I’ve tried. Being 5ft 3 (161cm) I’m rather petite in the torso but I haven’t had to adjust the straps too much.
In conclusion, I really adore this bra and it makes me wonder if the wired full cup version will also treat me well.

Of all the wireless bras that are sized by band and cup rather than S, M, L, and so on, Andorra Non-Wired Bras are the best for me. (I also have the Cosabella in two different sizes (P and XS) and neither fit well. The cups splay so far to the sides that there is no support whatsoever.) Panache has somehow engineered these non-wired bras so that they function like the wired Andorra with the interior side slings, providing superb support for the sides. 32D's band is comfortable (three fingers, rather than two). The D cup is a teensy bit small, producing a minor quad boob effect. Also, ... the breasts are definitely not separated - smooshed but not quite a uniboob. I don't mind the smooshed boobs since my breasts are closely placed already.
A little more background as well. My breasts are placed relatively high on my chest, so underwires constantly poke into my arm pits and eventually my arm pits push the bras down my chest, negating whatever support an underwire ought to provide. Hence, non-wired.
I like the Andorra Non Wired so much that I bought four of them (3 different sizes for different parts of the month). I will definitely buy more.

I wear a 32J UK in the Panache Envy, so I tried a 32J in this bra. This is definitely a structured bra that just happens to not have an underwire rather than a bralette. I found this to be very supportive, and suitable for wearing under T-shirts to work. It runs a bit small--the gore doesn't even come close to tacking, but I don't get any quadboob. I don't find it all that comfortable for lounging or sleeping. The elastic rubbed a bit of skin off when I tried to put it on with damp skin once. If this came in a larger cup size, I would try it out to see if I could get the gore to tack. Even so, I liked it enough to purchase it in sky blue as well as black.

I have been looking for some bras without wires for a while now. This is a new style for me and I used to LOVE the andorra plunge so I decided to try it. It's a really nice looking and well made bra! My biggest problem is with my monkey brain and not the bra, I purchased it one size smaller than I need! D'oh! The 28E was about $15 less expensive on Amazon than the 28F and I can sometimes fit 28E's depending on the style and if they are less structured or more of a bralette.
This bra may look like a little flimsy thing but it isn't. It has a solid construction and because of the quality, doesn't fit me. I will likely be trying this bra in a 28F or a 30E in the future because it seems like such a great wireless bra!

This is way too small. Looking at the measurements and fit details it seems like it shouldn't be THAT small, but it is. The band if I isolate it from the cups actually does feel okay, although it's way smaller than a 30 band usually is (could only stretch to 28", I'm surprised it feels OK on.)
The straps feel a little used i.e. digging in at the shoulders. I suspect that's from the woefully inadequate cup size.
The band is a fuzzy almost terrycloth and very soft and comfortable. The lace pattern is lovely. I'm not sure if the soft cups are defined enough to give actual separation ... between larger boobs. (As an alternate example I wear old Fantasie Belle bras with the wires removed and the center gore basically tacks, despite being stretched out and cups 1-2 sizes bigger than I usually wear now. I think this is because the wire channels are a stiffer fabric than the rest of the bra. On this one, it's just a seam.)
The fabric in general seems a little thin. I'd be worried about an earring accidentally puncturing it and causing damage.
Overall I'm disappointed but they do make this up to a J cup so I might try again in another size if my foray into Molke is a total fail (really trying to get some non-underwired bras into my rotation!)

What was I thinking? Just because a wireless bra comes in larger sizes, does not mean it has the support of a wired bra. Oh boy. The straps don't shorten NEARLY enough to PRETEND to hold up my breasts. This is just going braless with more steps. If you want a glorified boob sweat towel, here you go. I've never missed my young self just being able to throw on a sports bra more than when I try on a wireless attempt at a bra. It's not even flattering. There's no way for this to look good on projected breasts, at all. They're just going south. Simple as.

“going south” LOL
I know what you mean
I love this bralette I got it in my normal size of 28f, and it had no fit issues. There is a little extra fabric in the armpit and the lace wrinkles a little but I fit the cups well. I wasn’t quite sure if the gore was supposed to tack, cause in between it floats and I can see through it. The shape gives me a pointy warhead type appearance.

I like the way this bra fits quite a bit. Its much better than the wired Andorra in the same size, mostly I think because there is no wire to poke into my armpit (the fabric is a bit too high on the side, but thats much more tolerable) and there is no gore to force my breasts apart, which makes my shape feel much more natural. This on is for sure a keeper. The bottom band is rolling up a bit, but I'm not sure if that's because its a bit tight or because I'm just a bit fleshy below it there. I do definitely feel like the shoulder straps are doing more work than in a wired bra, but I think that's to be expected.

Thank you for reviewing this!
I know exactly what you mean about feeling the unwired bra more than the wired bra. Panache and Freya need to take lessons from Wacoal....seriously. Wacoal absolutely knows how to make comfortable, wireless matrix-sized bras whereas Panache and Freya engrave deep red grooves into my underbust.
