The bra fit perfectly. I could not feel the rubbing under my arm and at center gore, as at black/white or nude see my previous review 34JJ - Panache » Tango Ii Balconette (3251) .

The cups seem to run a full size too large. I was able to fill out the bottom, but there was quite a lot of fabric on top. I am not sure if this is a thing with Panache as I'm just discovering my new size. I have two Freya long lines in 30e that fit great so maybe it's a shape issue. The cups want to put my boobs into a more projected/conical shape than I am naturally. Fabric is a little scratchy. This is a bra with no foam.

This one is baggy on me at the end of the day, possibly because my soft breasts sink to the bottom of the cup - I think it might fit better in a 32FF, but I'm not sure I like the style enough to try that. Plus the wires are a bit wide for me. I would put it up for swap/sale if I hadn't accidentally ripped a seam in it.

This bra has wonderful support! Since I am petite I had to shorten the straps.

Very supportive, but in the beginning it poked me at centre gore.
Pros:
+supportive
+round form
Cons:
-Poked me in the beginning
This was my first fitted bra, but somehow during wearing it was other behaviour, as my black or white colour. I measured it, but there were not a big differences between the three colours.
After I lost some weight, the bra is not good anymore, so I decided to order smaller one 32JJ - Panache » Tango Ii Balconette (3251) from this type.

This bra sits well and holds tight. It gives a good breast shape under clothes and I have worn it for full days without it bugging me in any way. It kept the (hard) work of holding the breast well and snug.
The only problem I have with this bra is the seam pattern is visible through thin, tight t-shirt (as it is a raised print). The nude colour, which is what I currently have, does not show under clothes (except the above mentioned patters).

I don't like this bra. I find it gives me a pointy shape and splays my breasts outward. I've fit comfortably in others of the same size, but the gore doesn't tack for me and it just feels off... I won't be keeping it

This is the most comfortable bra I have worn. I wear it all day with no discomfort. It provides great support, but the straps do slip off my shoulders.

I can see why this is such a popular bra. It is comfortable to wear. I did not find the seams to be obnoxious under a t-shirt that is pretty tight across the bust. It would be great for wearing to work in basically any field where you're keeping the girls even semi-modestly covered in a wide range of work attire, because the only things I can think of it not working well with would be something with large arm holes or very large necklines, and sheer or thin fabrics that most people would wear another layer under or wear somewhere other than work.
At the time ... that I purchased this bra, I had been wearing a 38 band & equiv. FF cup, assuming both were only one size too big, so I sized down once. I used online size calculators and my own measurements as a guide, but got "size shock" at the 34G result, thinking no way I was a 34. The first order of bras got here. I am, in fact, a 34.
The only cons for me that weren't due to my own sizing error are the direction it put my gals going. This bra isn't the worst at it of the ones I've tried this week, but it did give them a bit of an east-west look. My personal preference is more front and center, so this lost my vote here. It's noticeable in the picture, they kind of look like two eggs leaning on each other at the top, going outward from one another at the bottom. It isn't noticeable in a shirt I don't think, but how they look without clothes is pretty important for *me.*
No wires were poking me in either the arms or the sternum. It gives ample boob coverage without the cup seeming like it goes nearly to the shoulder, like in the smoother moulded t-shirt "balconnette" bras I have tried. I doubt it could be worn with a sleeveless shirt but, I didn't try so don't take my word for it.
I did end up returning this bra because it turned out to be the wrong band size - my fault not Panache's. Judging by how it fit I would guess it was pretty true to size for a 36 though. I can see why this is such a popular bra. I do think that I could have sister sized down and a 34G would have fit. But while the fabric feel and the overall comfort were pros, I'm not a fan of the actual print & aesthetic look of this particular bra and I opted to exchange for a totally different bra altogether as the retailer I used has a large inventory so I looked around.
