Beautifully encloses my breass it clearly fits. The wires are terribly long but doesn't uncomfortably poke under my arms just feels strange. The only draw back is that it's gives me a very pointed shape. I'm not fond of that at all. I can't use loose tops or anything that is not cotton with this bra as it looks way too pointy and it kinda embarrasses me. I guess the term for it here is too projected. I like for my bras and breast to look round on the side not all up in ur face. Don't like the attention. But other than that if I could walk around without a blouse, I would. Cause once the blouse comes on it looks very uumf.

Horrible, horrible , horrible fit. The cup fit ugly. It made me uncomfortable to even look at myself in this bra. Which is a shame I love the color combinations. It gave me a cone like effect of my breast, a quadboob where the top is too tight. This bra just looked so bad on me.

This is the best fitting and most comfortable bra I own. The band is ideal at the start of the day but can be a little tight by the end so i sometimes wear with an extender.

Only worn for a few minutes to try on and review. Bought for $26.58 online (free shipping & returns) from Amazon.com after a 20% discount for signing up for their fashion news email in February 2014.
Wires - The wires were a little wide and a little tall under the arms, but not enough to be uncomfortable.
Comfort - Bandless, so wires sit directly on ribs, which is slightly uncomfortable but bearable. The straps are wide-set enough to rub the front of my armpit, but I'm used to this.
Fit - Band feels OK, but can be pulled a few inches away. The center gore does ... not tack. The top edge of the cups fits smoothly but there is a fold and wrinkling at the bottom. Both sides have a little bit of empty space at the top corners where my armpit/boob crease is.
Under clothing - Subtle uplifted shape, not perfectly round but definitely not pointy. The seams and texture are barely noticeable under a clingy top.
Overall - Beautiful bra with thin, comfortable material that hardly shows under clingy clothing, but the fit is not quite right, and I'm learning that I prefer bras with bands that continue under the cups.

Jasmine used to be my best fitting bra before my boobs decided to keep growing. The black ricamo colorway seems to be shallower than the older colorways. I know Panache starches the hell out of their bras, but since i want to return it, I can't wash it and see if that loosens it up a bit. The band is also stiffer than normal, but that could be because of the black dye.
I need a stretch lace upper section for my soft FOT boobs, but I still had a cup worth of quadboob on my larger breast. The stretch lace also seemed less generous than in past colorways (which could again be the starch and/or black dye). The side wings are also higher, so avoid if you have high set boobs.
The print is floral faux embroidery, which pops from the black background. Fabric is stiff and fairly unforgiving, but I would chalk that up to the starch.

I have very projected and FOT boobs. Floris is too shallow and way too closed on top. I had 1-2 cups worth of quadboob on my larger breast. The fabric was comfortable and the band is a nicer fabric (not mesh), but stretchier than other panache bras.

This bra is the best I have ever owned. Everything about it (besides one small detail) is absolutely perfect. The soft lace prevents the "quad-boob", the band fits AMAZING, the wires don't poke and prod like my Cleo, and the gore lays completely flat like it was made just for me! The only thing I think they could of altered was the adjustable straps, even just an inch more would of made a huge difference. Other than that, I've ordered 2 more of these bras because I just love it THAT much!

It doesn't fit me, so I can't tell much about this bra. However, I 've worn both Marcie and Colette, I can say that this is definitely not the same cut with Marcie.

Just arrived today: first impression - looks ok, feels good, great forward projection, holds everything in place without any spillage or quads; the cup fabric seems too soft to to provide enough lift for the bottom of the breasts. Good side support. The gore doesn't tack - but does it ever?

I absolutely love everything abit this bra. I wish I had sized up to a 34, as the band is extremely snug. I believe it will stretch out, but I would recommend sizing up in the band. The cup shape, depth abd strap placement are all PERFECT. I love this bra, abd hope the band stretches out a bit with washing and wear.

This was my first actual bra that fit. It was itchy. I was told the pattern would soften with time as would the band and neither happened.

I was less than thrilled with this bra. I had such high hopes but it poked everywhere with underwires, which improved with bending but wasn't eliminated. Wings were much too high to be comfortable and while a very pretty bra it drove me nuts. The band is not very stretchy and was snugger than my 30J melody. Maybe it just didn't have enough stretch in the cups.

VERY open on top--would be great for FoT shape. Seems to run slightly large as a result--you can't fit into this if you're a 32H, but you might if you're a 32J.
The design isn't my thing, but it's appealing enough despite that. The mesh is vaguely see-through. Very sturdy; a good daily bra.

This is a great bra. Fits wonderfully and comfortably. It is made impeccably. Even tho I sized down from a 34HH to a 32J at my last bra fitting, I notice even on this brand new bra that my left breast tissue in the middle of my chest wants to quadboob. I believe my right breast is a tiny bit larger so I find this confusing.

I think you're right. At this same bra fitting trip, I was so excited to try Comexim bras. I tried 3 different ones and although they gave me great lift, my breast tissue in the center felt like it was spilling right out of the cups. I even went up a cup size and it still happened. I realized then that maybe the tissue at the center of my chest is just really soft. I always attributed it to 'quadraboob' because of the bra not fitting. Now I am guessing I just need higher gores. My bra lady told me that Comexim will custom make bras with higher gores. Maybe some day I will try it :P
This is an excellent bra. The band is a very firm, so I recommend a bra extender while breaking it in or to size up if you are used to looser bands like those seen in most Freya bras. The cups run true to size and give a very uplifted shape. The bra also has stretch lace at the top, which should accommodate many breast shapes.

This bra is gorgeous and I think it would be very uplifting if it fit properly. The stretch lace is totally ace for avoiding bumps and quad-boob. The wire was a little too wide, and the cup too shallow for me.

It would be absolutely perfect, if the sides weren't so high!!!

Short version (as I have multiples of this bra, which I've already reviewed), it's a pretty versatile bra that should accommodate a fair number of shapes. Unfortunately, I need a larger cup size than is currently available.

Let me use this sentence to explain how awesome this bra is -- I was wearing the wrong size for about two weeks before it dawned on me that such a thing (wrong size) was a possibility.
Overall, I'd call the Andorra's band about average for a 32. (Note: This Caribbean blue colourway seems to run just to the snug side of average, while the other versions I have seem to run a tad looser.)
The stretch lace at the top of the cup is soft and very accommodating. There was no wrinkling, gaping, or spillover on either of my (differently sized) breasts. It was really easy for ... me to think the cup fit perfectly.
It actually took working the bra into my regular rotation (and, erm, buying multiples apparently a little too soon) to recognize that I was having some fit issues, after all. The wire on my larger side is just a smidge too narrow. I'd apparently been distorting them a tad -- and then getting poked in the boob when they wanted to move back into place. Additionally, my breasts started pushing the cup down, leaving empty space at the bottom -- though for want of width or more lower depth, I cannot tell.
Since I was actually stretching -- though not to maximum capacity -- the stretch lace on my smaller side, I decided it would be worth sizing up to a 32J (the bra already runs about a cup size small) to see how that goes. Said 32J Andorra is currently on its way to me.

Maybe it's the cup depth/height of the gore? There's always the possibility of boobs changing.
