It is somewhat itchy. However, this is the best fitting bra I own. It is VERY supportive and keeps my shoulders and back from hurting. It is not a t-shirt bra, you can see the fabric texture through certain shirts. It keeps my breasts separated and never gives me the "3rd boob" that spills boobage in the middle. I like this bra but it isn't the most comfortable for sure.

This bra is pretty rocking. When I first bought it (IDK... 2 years ago?) it fit perfectly. Everything still fits, except the band. WOW, does it ever stretch out. It's not the best bra for an active job, but it is very good for day-to-day walking, desking, and sitting.
I do like this bra, but I'm not sure I'll be getting another. I'm pretty sure a 34GG or H would be perfect (I'll try one on the next time I go bra shopping!), however the two I have (the other is a 38FF!) are still in decent shape. I will for sure be taking in the band on this bra, to make it more like a 34.
Oh, one other thing. The uplift of this bra is not the most excellent, as the straps do not attach to the portion of the cup that goes under the bust. Keep this in mind if you have problems getting the perky shape you want!

The Tango in 28DD gave me the "orange in a glass" effect (wrinkling around the tip of the cup), so I tried 28E but found the cups too big. For some reason, the cups come up noticeably higher in 28E, the centre gore is taller (7cm vs. 5.8cm) and the band is broader at the sides.

Although the bra was very supportive and comfortable, I don't think it's a good match for my shape or preferences. The wires came up too high in the center and under the arms to wear under most round, v-neck, or sleeveless shirts. The underwires are also very wide, stretching back far beneath my arms and leaving a bit of extra fabric there. At the same time, it was too tight in the front and top of the cup, bulging over and cutting in. Some combination of the wrong size and shape.
The bra gives a supportive, lifted but "incognito" shape, keeping boobs secure and somewhat minimized. A perfect choice for work, school, or any setting where you don't intend to show cleavage and don't want to draw attention to your boobs. Will definitely try the Tango II Plunge for more versatility.

My "true" size with Panache is 40 H, but I prefer the Tango in 42 GG because there the wires do not come up as high as they do in the 40 H. Downside is that the band is too loose, I always have to wear it on the tightest hook.

I like the fit of this bra. Good coverage while still attractive and fits my petite frame well. A 32F probably would have been even better as I sometimes have to adjust to avoid the quad-boob effect.
July 2011 update:
The cup in this bra seems to have stretched since I purchased this bra (almost 3 centimeters) which explains why I no longer experience any quad-boob effects (gladly). Interesting though. Also, the band is pretty stretchy and I generally wear it on its tightest hook. Could have gone with a 28 band and been good I think.

Great fit and support. Can wear all day. Sexy look, see through. Straps do not strectch which is good, difficult to put on but great support.

Good coverage while still allowing you to wear some lower t-shirts. Definately not a plunge bra. Very supportive.

I love this bra, I just wish that it came in a KK.
It is very comfortable and I wear this bra everyday. It took about 2 1/2 months to stretch to the point that I had to move it into the middle set of hooks.

it is the balconette #3251. the plunge only goes up to and H cup and if you are a full busted person you would need to go up in the cup for the plunge.
Not flattering
