The band is snug, so even though I was a 28G at time of fitting, we went with the 30FF because it's so snug. This was my best fit option while breastfeeding (9 months at the time). I'm close set, full on bottom, and center full, though I get melon-round when full of milk. I'm projected, too.

What I love: How this looks under shirts! It's round, lifted, and smooth. I don't get hot in it, feel like I'm locked in but the fabric stretches to accommodate my full moments and inserting Freemie cups for pumping. Straps are fully adjustable. I can also pull the cup and strap down ... for nursing. Even though I have all this lift, I don't get crazy cleavage or feel like I'm sticking out there. I actually get a slimming effect with this!

What I don't like: Coming from stretchy, too big of bands, a snug band took some adjustment. The gore is higher than I'd like, so it can irritate on first day of wear after washing, but it feels better on subsequent wears. I also wish the elastic was a little more comfortable.

Wires are to long, cups are to far apart

After some changes in my body and a period of time when bras weren't a priority, I've gone to get fitted at a store and this is the result. I was thrilled at first as it was significantly more comfortable than the bras I've been wearing before, but after wearing it for several full days, I've noticed some things that weren't as great.

First, the good. It's a nice nude bra with a touch of femininity with the lace. It provides good support and I love the J-hook option. The extra mesh side support is really nice. It's practically invisible under clothes. I am not a big fan of ... plain T-shirt bras, but this one works for me. It's also the first seamless cup that works for me. I like the soft material, it feels like the boobs are resting on a pillow.

I have to say I am not a fan of the full coverage style and minimized shape this bra provides. While it is subtle, I prefer my boobs up, front and center (so they make my stomach look smaller in comparison https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />). For some people this might be a selling point, though.

The big problem for me is somewhere along the lines of underwire or band shape. I'm not quite sure what's going on, but if I put the band in it's rightful place, the lower outer part of the underwire is not quite where it needs to be, sitting a little away from my IM fold. This allows the cups to travel down my body over the course of the day and when they are forced back, say, by sitting down, it pinches the bit of skin below my boobs. In order to prevent this, I need to wear the band higher up in the back than I am used to, where instead of smoothing things over it creates a bulge. This is mitigated somewhat if I switch to the tightest hook, but that is not entirely comfortable and hey! I don't want to wear a new bra on the tightest hook. There's just something that doesn't entirely click with my shape, I think. Still, it's a good wearable bra for me, it's just that it's not perfect - and what is?

Very nice bra. My favorite t-shirt bra.
Very confortable, gore tacks (but inicially hurted my closed set boobs), wide cup though, nice for wide rooted.
I love the material, it is soft, maleable, it is moulded but adjusts to the shape of the breasts.

I think this is a great bra that would fit a lot of people. Because the spacer fabric is really thin and flexible, it can conform to your shape, so it's able to accommodate more projection than most t-shirt bras and the top edge isn't closed or constricting. I'm wearing Nippies in the photos; otherwise there's some slight show-through. I had to push the wires down in the channels and bend them outwards slightly at the top, but I'm extremely close-set and I don't think the gore would be a problem if you're not. After I made this adjustment, the bra is overall very comfortable and I plan ... to use it as an everyday t-shirt bra during the summer.
The design has a lot of attention to detail, from the pretty lace on the band to the flat ribbon bows to the tiny loop trim under the edges of the cups. You have to see it in person to see how pretty it is! The straps are a good width, not noticeably wide but not so thin that they dig in, and are fully adjustable (but there is a j-hook above the adjusters, so if you pulled the adjusters to the front of your shoulders, the j-hook would be in the front too). The back is u-shaped, making the straps are set a bit closer in, which is great for anyone who struggles with straps digging into their armpits or falling off their shoulders.
The bra seems true to size for a Panache 28E.

Many thanks to my "boob cousin" for sharing one of her favorite, readily available bras. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /> If this gore were narrower, I would purchase a Cari bra. The spacer foam is thinner than the foam Comexim and Ewa Michalak use. The immediate projection is good: there was a bit of buckling near the wire. The concentric circles around the cradle were both tasteful and interesting.

However, I strongly prefer three columns of fasteners I always receive with my Comexim orders. The band on Cari feels less supportive because it is more narrow. Additionally, I appreciate the .75" straps on Comexim bras. Finally, Comexim will both narrow and overlap the gore wires which I require for my close set breasts.

This is a great bra if you need immediate projection and you can tolerate a .9" Gore width.
