I bought the Panache Tango bra back in 2010 when I first learned about bra sizing and have used it during the past two years.

This bra has always been comfortable and supportive, plus it comes in a great variety of colour. While it's not really original, girly or sexy, it is definitely a great tshirt bra if you have the right shape for it.

The main problem with this bra is that it runs a bit small on the cup size and has a narrow structure. The fabric is thick and will not work with all breast shapes. I found that it often cut into my breast tissue ... or slipped down during the day because the weight of my breast was pushing it down (something that tends to happen less in bras that are the right shape for me).

After debating whether the size was the problem or not for two years, I have decided that the biggest issue for me was probably the shape. While my breasts are not especially wide and are rather bottom-heavy, the top of the cup still cuts in my bigger breast tissue because it is too narrow for my breasts.

In conclusion, I think this is a very good bra, it is still in pretty good shape after two years despite the fact that I machine-washed it. The fabric is very supportive and comfortable. Despite the details on it, it doesn't show much through the clothes and it surely is good looking if you have the right shape for it.

However, the cup size is on the smaller end.

Purchased in black. Full on bottom, experienced wrinkling at the top. Band was stretchier than other Panache bras I've tried. Conical shape even if it did fit. Fabric texture appears through tighter tops.

This was a really comfy bra. I was worried because it felt stiff, but when I actually put it on, it was great. So pretty too, this was the first non-neutral bra I've owned. Band fits but I would prefer it to be a bit more snug. That, the gore being too wide, and need a bit more immediate projection, are my issues with it, but they're really more nitpicks - as I've been wearing more bras with wider gores my breasts are getting pushed apart more. A very comfy bra I fell asleep in a few times.

Very pointy and unsupported shape. This bra made my breasts look significantly sadder and more droopy than they look naked. Not a winner.

Although most of my bras are 28DD and 30D, with a couple of 30DDs thrown in, the Tango in 30E cuts into the top of my breast tissue and gives me lumps. As with every other Tango I've tried, including the plunge model, the cups pucker around my nipples. The wire length in the 30E is great for me for side support, however I cannot manipulate my tissue enough to fit it into the narrow cups. I love the fabric and colors of the Tango, so I try and try to wear it. Why doesn't Panache make their other styles with this supportive, durable fabric?

This bra is not shaped well at all for me. The bra has a lot of fullness and projection in the center right by the gore - I slope more gently out than this bra and so have a lot of empty space at the top inner side. The bottom and outside are filled out okay, but there is just too much fabric leading from the gore into the middle of the cup.

So close. This bra was really really close, and it's my first time getting a soft cup bra that's too big - now I know what wrinkling looks and feels like! The bra also seems to have a bit of a pointy shape in the structure, which could be why I can't fill it also. It's a shame because it comes so close in other ways, like with the fabric on the sides being smooth to my body and of course the lack of quadboob - but the wrinkling just doesn't work out. It's getting returned as well.

Fit was ok, but gave me a pointy shape - wasn't obvious under thin shirt, but will be returning anyway. Wires are poking me in sternum. Disappointed because this bra comes in beautiful colours.
