I've seen this bra touted as one of those bras to try before you go Polish, and yeah, as someone who best fits Polish bras, I do like this bra. Wires are narrow, comparable to EM in my size. Surprising amount of cup depth (12in in both sizes I got.)
It's got a cute, feminine style that's reminiscent of JP Wacoal and Triumph. I got it in Taupe, which is extremely close to the color Panache uses for their tags/ribbons, and reminds me of the Vintage colorway of Ana. It's a gorgeous color, so I'm not mad that it's too cool to actually match my skin. The cups are ... made of a thin mesh, similar to what's used in the Elomi Matilda. It's certainly not the softest material, but it's a total dream compared to Envy. And the embroidery doesn't seem to show under my thinner clothes.
As far as fit goes, I got a 32GG and a 32H. The following applies to both sizes:
- It does not cut into the center of my breast tissue. Yay.
- The wires are just a tiny bit too wide, but not so wide that they cause discomfort. (We're talking less than 1in here.)
- Good amount of immediate projection. The cups don't wrinkle at the bottom and wires don't slide down.
- The gore is technically too wide. Though like with the wire width, it's not uncomfortable.
Both fit well enough to wear without much issue, although I like the fit of the 32GG better. Not surprising as I also tend to size a cup down for Polish bras as well. 32H has a fixable amount of gaping at the top (fixable if you're willing to sew, at least,) which seems to be common in this model. The lack of side support is my biggest gripe, but it's not a dealbreaker.
