Very nice quality, fit was good for shallow wide rooted breasts, wires comfortable, fit was overall good. The bands run small so when ordering get a size up in band. Cups run true to size. I prefer lined bras, and this is a non lined bra.
For my top-heavy ladies, this is truly the most perfect bra ever! I've only recently discovered it, and have ordered it in as many colors as I can find, in hopes that even as it stretches I can have it for years. It's the first and only bra that I NEVER have had to adjust during the day; everytime I look down expecting spillage, it's miraculously not there(!?!?!); and the girls are front, center, and high! My lawd, it's a gorgeous bra. Thank you Panache------puhleeze never discontinue this style!
At first I liked this. Need a soft cup bra. This is comfortable. A little pointy on the silhouette but I could live with that. But the weird wrinkling in he bottom of the cup, and the really strange silhouette in he bottom half of my boob - I don't think I can get past that. Is this the dreaded inverted 7??
I just got this bra yesterday and am wearing it now. I only have one other bra in Panache - the Masquerade Amor in a 32E. I decided to go up a size and get a 34E in this one since that one was a little tight (it fits, but it's very snug). The 34E in the Panache Porcelain Grace fits me in the cups, but is just a tiny bit big in the band. I'm wearing it on the loosest hook and it fits but I just feel like it's going to stretch out very quickly - the band is very stretchy. The cups do fit me ...very well at the moment, but I do currently have my period and am a bit larger in the bust area right now. I'm not sure how well they'll fit the rest of the month, but we'll see. I'll update my review later to see how it fits then https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
UPDATE: 4 hours later and I'm still wearing this bra. The band is definitely not too loose - so I'm very happy I went with the 34 and not the 32! Read more 87 more words
This is the greatest sports bra I have ever owned and it's not even the right size anymore. I just saw that they're releasing it (or already make it) in bright colors and I cannot wait to drop more money on this glorious piece of equipment. I never felt comfortable when working out before I got this. My boobs got in the way, they bounced, I felt like everyone was staring and it was really hard to concentrate on my workout, especially when running. Now, my boobs stay put!! It's incredible!!! This sports bra. I have been asked about it by complete strangers who also have trouble finding ...proper sports bras. Basically, I recommend completely. It's magnificent. You might cry from happiness.
One thing is that when I first got it, the band was REALLY tight. even now it's rather tight (as you can see from my measurements). There's a hook in the back to make it a racerback which is fantastic, but you probably won't be able to fasten that part right away. After a few wears though, it'll loosen up a bit and then you can start hooking it there. It gives a nice boost to cup security. Read more 91 more words
It fits perfectly except for the bottom of the cups. There is some wrinkling because there is not enough projection on the underside of the cups, Overall a minor issue, though, and one I can overlook because this is the only nude plunge I've ever found that fits well. The band is also a little stretchy, but I may just be used to how a Cleo fits.
The thing I love the most about this bra is how there's no extra fabric under the bottom of the cups. When the band extends below the cups, my pooch stomach always makes it roll up and it looks weird and is also a bit uncomfortable (Freya longlines are the worst for this). This bra has nothing extending below the underwire and I had ever realized how much I like it until I finally got a bra like this.
i bought this off a Braswap user who got it from someone else who paid a penny for it at Nordstroms because the fabric tag got cut out. As such, the paper tag they attached is actually wrong, and although it says 32G, the Braswap user was correct in saying it measures in line with a 34E. Unfortunately for me, it was too large in both the band and cup.
As looks go, this is the prettiest bra i have ever seen. Im so sad it doesnt work! The bra is a rich, deep plum, with vibrant turquoise and orange floral embroidery. The top of the cup is sheer ...and has large daisy looking flowers, while the bottom half is more opaque with small leaves and flowers. I love how the same lace on the top half of the cup is on the gore, its so beautiful!
The fit is an entirely different story. First, it is clearly too big in the cup. When i first put it on, its not so apparent, but once i settle i get a pretty large amount of space. the cup doesn't lay flat against me, especially at the top where i lack fullness. if i pull on the top of the cup, i get an idea of the shape i could have-natural, slightly rounded. The band is also slightly loose even on the tightest hook, and very stretchy. i could probably size down here as well. I don't think the under wire comes up to far under the arms, and i think it's wide enough, but i cant wear the bra for long enough to know if it would eventually be a problem. the straps are half adjustable, with a decorative scallop shaped strap in the front.
The largest issue for me, and why I've decided to pass this on rather than deal with it, is that the gore absolutely kills me. I feel as if m being stabbed- i actually still feel bruised from the ten minutes i worse it, and that was a day and a half ago! no matter how tight or loose the band is, i get this awful pressure that's bad when i stand, and unbearable when i bend over or sit. this gore is higher than any ive ever worn. I tried some Freya's at Nordstroms that were around that height and also felt the same. My breasts are farther apart, and my sternum is all bone with no breast tissue, so higher gores don't work.
This is a beautiful bra that feels very well constructed, but unfortunately it isn't for me. Hopefully i can pass it along to someone who it works better for! Read more 336 more words
The best fitting bra I own, even one year after I first bought it! Unfortunately getting a bit too loose in the band. Love the look, too.
The band was measured when the bra was already one year old. It's too loose now, so I assessed how it fit when it was new(er). I'm going to alter it in order for it to be less stretchier.
Tango II Balconette is a very nice bra with nice smooth lacy material and various colours. Mine is cornflower blue. 34E cups are a bit too large for me, particularly at the top of the cups, so I'll buy 34DD next time I get this model. But it still feels good to wear.
I bought this bra as I was looking for a black plunge T-shirt bra. The material is very soft, although it can be a bit warm during summer. The slightly padded cups are very comfortable and firmly lift my boobs. The only problem with this cup size is that I don't fill the top of the cups. Maybe 34DD would have been better for me. I can still wear it, but it is not a perfect fit.
Cup Fit : Feels true to size Band Size : Feels true to size
I adore this bra! The colours are exquisite and the fit is spot on. The only thing I could think of is maybe slightly wider straps (+1/8 in.) and the centre front gore dug a little into my sternum and I occasionally have to adjust it. But aside from that, it is a very lovely piece. I would definitely recommend this!
It would really be helpful if you could post the measurements, I'm so glad you found your Holy Grail of bras!
