This used to be my favourite bra for a long time. Sadly my boobs decided to grow again. I need now a 32K/32KK in other Panache bras (like Floris and Melody) and probably a 32L in Ariza.

pros +
+ gives a uplifted round shape
+ full on top friendly
+ very sturdy construction
+ wires are a bit narrower than on most panache bras (Tango, Melody, Floris)
+ band is very firm and barely stretches out with wear
+ very supportive, gives "boobs of steel" feeling

cons -
- fabric is a bit itchy at first wears
- shoulder straps can dig in
- wire pain since the wires are very very stiff (but that also makes the ... bra so supportive for big / heavy boobs) but also note that I get pain from wires digging in in all my bras when I wear them a full day, because the bras have to carry a lot of weight

about this colorway: compared to other Arizas I tried in this size (blossom and mint) I found that this one is less full on top friendly as the cups are more closed on top and also it runs slightly small all over.

about this colorway: in my opinion this one allows more room in the cups compared to other Arizas I tried in the same size (mint and teal) fits most generous, also the band is a bit bigger than on the other colors.

about this colorway: it runs imo a half cup size small / the top section is a bit less full on top friendly than on other colors
also beware, band is less firm in +JJ sizes, so go with you usual band size even if other reviews say to size up (bands runs 1 size small in J - cups and under)

I'm full on top and this bra does not fit me correctly. Even though I'm usually a 32JJ/K I tend to spill out of the top of this bra a bit...makes it perfect for lower cup tops but the underwire on the sides also come up too high, making it super uncomfortable for all day wear. The band is nice and snug though, the cups are just not made to fit me properly. The material is also a bit itchy.

the Ariza bra is really quite pretty, I would say the back size is a little big but otherwise really good
