This review describes the SPICE (orange) colorway.

I own this bra in lagoon (blue) and plum (purple) in 34GG and 36G respectively. The 36 band is a better fit for me but I prefer three hooks (found on GG and up) over the two hook version, so I ordered this bra in 34GG with the intention of using it with an extender for the first few months. In terms of band tightness, the spice colorway feels similar to the lagoon Sienna of the same size. It is what I would consider typical Panache sizing, unlike the other two bras I tried from this season, the ... Panache Clara Full Cup (7255) and the Panache Dahlia (7291). These bras both were loose by Panache standards, while the Sienna remains tight.

I have recently started to spill out of my lagoon and plum Siennas a little on my larger size, while the small size fits me well. That means they're about half a cup size too small for me currently. By contrast, I had significant overspill on my larger breast and some overspill on my smaller breast with the spice Sienna. It's about one size too small for me (which means I can order the right band size!). That means that it runs about half a cup size smaller than the lagoon and plum colorways.

Like most Panache bras, the straps are only partly adjustable. It is not possible to make them shorter by forcing them over the padded fabric because the padded section of the strap is separate from the adjustable part. This is in common with other Siennas. I have had less of a problem with Sienna strap length than with Jasmine strap length, however, despite the fact that the Jasmine can in theory be made shorter by forcing the adjuster over the padding.

The lagoon color of this bra is gorgeous. It looks amazing under the black lace.

This is one of my current favorite bras, despite the fact that I have to wear it with an extender. I would not trade it for a 36G, which would have only two hooks and not offer nearly as much support and stability.

I purchased this bra from a fellow Bratabase user because I really wanted to try out this style. The bra was a little too big in the cups for me, but its still very comfy. I knew I was taking a risk in buying a 34GG, and it actually fit better than I thought. I'm going to try this bra in a 32GG next. Hopefully that will resolve the fit issues I have with the 34 band.

I had my mom try this bra on also, and I'm happy to report that its a great fit for her! She has some issues with shoulder pain which has caused ... problems with bra straps in the past. The straps not being fully adjustable worked out perfectly for her and resolved the issue of the adjuster hitting right under her shoulder blades. She had no problems with strap length, even without fully adjustable straps, and she's 5'9" with a long torso, so that's no easy feat. I'm very happy this bra worked for my mom, and I can't wait to get one for myself in the correct size!

This is a going out bra. I get a little chafe on the ribcage, which I just realized may be because I need to bring it in a hook or two.Other than that it's beautiful.
