My best bra because it is very deep with immediate projection, very firm wires to hold me up,and no itchy lace getting pinched under the wires. Firm, solid fabric except for the strange lace on top. So FOT friendly that it really is best on FOT. Supports and separates, not a cleavage bra
This is my favorite bra, so I need it in every color - this is the newest, Ivory Floral - and I also had to play w my new phone. I know the bra looks like its not on quite right, but I'm a tad big today and i was in a hurry and it hasnt been washed yet! I just wanted to post pics
This is a lovely neutral colored bra, which is supposedly based on the Floris cut. And like the Floris, I find it very deep with immediate projection
In fact, it does fit me fairly well, with 2 main exceptions.
First, the fabric is much softer than the Floris. The Floris fabric is smooth and strong. The Olivia fabric is a lovely soft feel, and it does seem fairly firm, but not quite as firm as the Olivia's fabric. This seems to cause it to not press in as firmly on the outer cups, allowing the breasts to bulge out to the sides slightly more than ...the floris.
But the killer for me is the top of the cups. The Floris is extremely open on top, to the point where there is loose fabric folding down on many women. In fact, it did this to me when it was new, but seemed to fit better when washed.
Apparently, in order to correct for this, the shape of the top of the cup of the Oliva was slightly changed, and in addition to using a stretch lace for the top section of the cup, the top is also trimmed with elastic. Elastic which cuts in to my larger breast.
My hopes for a neutral color bra that fits me was dashed because the elastic makes the bra slightly less FOT friendly than the Floris.
Lovely, deep, soft - not as FOT friendly as I need. Read more 144 more words
This is a gorgeous bra. I have been wearing it around the house and bouncing around, trying to see if maybe it's too small. It's hard to tell with the Jasmine if it's too small. That's what happened when I bought the 34GG jasmine. Just didn't realize it was too small. I get a weird folding of my breast tissue at the outer part of the cups, just inside of where the cup meets the strap. I'm not sure what to think of it. I feel like there might be a tiny amount of quadboob for my right breast.
This bra felt TIGHT! I was still able to fasten the bra, but it felt much tighter than my other 32s. I love the color I grabbed (black with pink embroidery) - it's very pretty. Since this bra only has partially adjustable straps, loosening them did not completely help my quadboob. The top of the cups are more rigid than my @Cleo Lucy and so it digs in a bit more than I'd like. The bra goes up pretty high on my breasts, so it's not a bra for low cut blouses! I got it for a steal and it's still arable, but I think when I find a 32JJ at a good price I will definitely go for it. The wires are a smidge too wide for me, but not as bad as it was in a larger band size. The fabric is a little scratchy so I'm hopeful it'll soften after a wash or two.
The bra fits well. Cups not gaping compared to a 32JJ and everything else fits as it should, as well. I think I've finally discovered my size! 32J (at least in Panache).
This is a very popular bra with a nice, firm band and supportive cups. The band runs tighter than my other Panache bras, like the 32J - Panache » Jasmine (6951) or the 32J - Cleo » Marcie (6831). I would say it fits more like a 30 band.
The underwire is a bit too high in the front (though it doesn't poke badly like some bras that I own). The main problem is that the cups are too shallow and separated, for my close-set, projected, very full-on-top breasts, creating a minimizing effect, a bit of quadboob, and a wider silhouette than I prefer. I think this would work better for someone whose breasts were shallower and more balanced, or even a size down, like a 30J.
This bra was way too tight in the band; I had to really pull to get it closed, at which point it was way too uncomfortable, bordering on painful. I felt kind of "jiggly" on top and there was some wrinkling on the lower sides of each cup.
I love this bra way more than I expected, I was looking for a bra to wear under light coloured or see through tops that wasn't uncredibly ugly and this suits my skin tone and looks good. The wires are too wide for me but that doesn't bother me, I hated the Tango and this is supposed to be similar but it is cut a lot lower, is less coverage and is stretchy which seems to make it work for me where the Tango didn't will probably buy in black as well, great basic bra which still looks good in a sophisticated way.
I have the black bird print, Ilove the print on this bra and have been looking for it for ages. This is the first Jasmine I have tried although I had a white Andorra in 32HH which I got a tiny bit of quadboob in hence sizing up to 32J. I find the band tight on this and could probably have got away with a 34, the gore is also too high so it becomes uncomfortable after wearing for a while. The wires are too wide as well although this doesn't seem to bother me too much, I wish I had been able yo try a smaller cup size and/or bigger back to see if this had a lower gore.
I have a feeling this bra would be perfect for me if they would just make it one cup size larger. As it is, the wires are too narrow. This makes the cup slide down, compromising support, comfort, and shape. It also leads to the side underwire poking me in the armpit.
I am tempted to keep an eye out for the 34J, just to see if the larger cup size alleviates this problem.
The center gore does lay flat on my sternum, but it is too high and my boobs are too close together, making it very uncomfortable. A plunge style would probably be better. I don't quite fill the bottom of the cups, and the cups definitely wrinkle when I lift my arm. The band was very difficult to hook, and I even had to take the straps off of my shoulders to get all three hooks.
The bra that fits me best so far, I think I finally figured out my real size as 32J: no spillage, whole boob is inside the cup, wearing the new bra on the loosest hooks.
However, the center gore is either too wide/ too high for my close set boobs. So much so that after wearing it for a few hours, the right underwire naturally migrates on my right boob (the smallest) and only the left underwire is left between my breasts. And there's clearly no room for more than one there. Even altering the bra and tucking in the center gore (which is pretty wide) doesn't solve the ...issue. As a result I end up with angry red lines on my belly from where the underwire has been pushed away from my chest and down.
The shape is pretty nice, overall round but with a squarish/flat look if one looks closely. The seam between the lower half of the cup and the mesh seems to be digging into my boob somewhat. But my breasts are not very dense at this place, so it might not be a flaw of the bra itself. It doesn't show anyway when I'm wearing a top. No quadraboob effect though! Read more 95 more words
I was in too much of a hurry to really judge this bra before purchase. On a whim it seemed like it fit very well in the store, but after a few wears at home its obvious how poorly it actually fits. It's a better band size for me, but its just WAY too large in the cups. Stretchy lacy material make up the cups of this bra. It's designed to give great support to the breast by having interior side panels that push the side of the breast into the cup shape. The breast will make any soft breast appear firm and perky. It can give a ...very conical shape if you are bustier. The underwire cups for this bra are way too larger for my breats, although it feels like there is plenty of material to cover my breast, the cups are just too large and thusly i suffer by being poked by the underwires. The scalloped lace details along the under of the cup are more annoying, than pretty. they curl under the cup and curl away from my body. Read more 76 more words

The band on this bra is too big on me. I usually wear a 30 band, and a 32 if the band runs small. But Andorra has quite a stretchy band. Cup-wise the 32J does fit me much better than the 30J. But I would really need a 30JJ in this bra, which sadly Panache does not make.
post a fitting request with pictures and measurements of the bra. Also make sure your own measurements are up to date.
