This being the first properly-fitted bra I've ever worn, I don't really know what to say. It was given to me by my sister after she purchased several bras and found that none fit. Instead of returning them she decided to re-sell them, but asked me to try them first. The Panache Superbra Sasha (5291) was the only one that fit, and she gifted it to me to start me on my bra journey. When I did my own measuring I found that I probably wear closer to an D/E than an F (explains the wrinkling on top and empty space on bottom), and that a ... 30-32 band fits me (surprisingly!)

For the first time, the gore touches my sternum and I have a bra that actually stays in place! No boobs showing when I bend over! Yay! It was a little itchy to begin with, and I wasn't sure how to feel about such a snug fit but I got used to it pretty quickly. It took wearing it for an hour or two, a couple of times for it to soften up, but now it fits great! Because it's a balconette it gives me the whole pointy-no-bra look, but when I buy my own I'll look for demi-cups or molded cups.

All in all:
Pros: Snug, comfortable, gore touches sternum, under-wire doesn't dig in, band isn't too loose/ tight, straps adjust perfectly, cups cover entire breast, bra stays in place.

Cons: Wrinkling at top/empty space on bottom, pointy-boob look.
