Runningtrailswithboobs

I own many of the wired versions of this bra and wanted to try the non-wired version, thinking it might be more comfortable for some of my lower impact activities - yoga, rock climbing, etc. It worked OK for climbing. The boob shape under shirts isn't as nice and high and round as with the wired version, but that wasn't unexpected and wasn't a deal breaker for me. However, I got into downward dog and my boobs just slipped out of the top of the cups! I have very soft breast tissue and so I think because the cups didn't hold their shape after a day of wear, maybe the gore spread out or something?

It does fit the same as the wired versions i.e. true to size. Someone with slightly more rigid tissue or looking for a bra for hiking, walking, or climbing that won't eventually poke one would probably like this bra.

I did LOVE the cobalt colorway.

I love this bra! I hadn't owned a Deco for some years before I picked this up (thanks, Bratabase!) and this and my Fantasie Jana are basically all I want to wear these days unless I'm in a sports bra. The detailing is subtle but lovely (there's a cute shiny plastic charm at the gore). Straps are thin but strong and don't slip off my shoulders. Optional racerback clip is awesome.

I haven't yet ever tried an EM bra that actually worked for me. This is too small for me to be sure, but I also feel as though I wouldn't totally love this bra if it did fit. It's too stretchy, not supportive enough. I'm currently really into bras that fit AND hold me in - so if I jog down the street or bounce down a flight of stairs, I'm not going to flop out of my bra. The thin, very stretchy straps on this bra, plus the thin, very malleable, low-cut foam of the cups, plus the extreme stretch of the band (which is, however, very comfortable), make me guess that this bra would not make me happy.

I like this bra, but it is not the most comfortable (I'm used to less high wires now) and under mid-tight shirts it *looks* like I have quadboob because the thin fabric doesn't hold in all my tissue. Atm on the rag I'm a bit larger than normal and the cup is a bit too small on the left, but still too big on the right.

- Update May 2015 - The little thread dots on the cup have started pilling. I wear this bra regularly and it's the perfect color under a turquoise shirt I have with lace at the top (so the bra matches the lace). It does get uncomfortable, especially under the arms, by the end of a day. But a solid place in my closet!

This bra is the reason the Deco is so beloved. Snazzy color, cute buttons, great shape & fit. My only complaint would be that sometimes, when I'm driving (so, sitting & slouching forward) the underwires sometimes dig in under my arms. This isn't a problem at any other time.

Although I'm still on the fence about the pattern of this bra (multicolored feathers) I reach for it regularly. I've had it for a few months and it still fits well on the loosest hook - so it hasn't stretched out much. Sometimes the straps can feel a little flimsy, but with the very stretchy band material and three hooks the majority of the support clearly comes from the band, which is good. I do love the colors and how thin/"normal looking" the straps are. Overall a great bra that fits me well! As with most Comexim bras the wires are very narrow, which works for me; but ... be aware if you're trying one out for the first time.

- Update May 2015 - this bra doesn't really fit me anymore - I could use another cup size and a bit more room in the band. Comexim bras are pretty stretchy so a tighter fit is more comfortable than it might be with a stiffer bra, but that means that one can end up wearing a tighter band than one ought. That's definitely happened in my case, I've had to sew the eyehooks back into the bra since I've stretched them out. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> BUT, I've been wearing this regularly (few times a week) for a year and it's still in great shape, no deformation of the cups, visible broken-ness in the elastic, or even fading color.

This bra is beautiful and well made - lovely attention to detail especially for a nude bra like this one! Unfortunately it is now too small for me, though it fit when I got it nine months ago. The wires are very narrow and the cups low under the arms, which was novel to me when I first tried it - and wonderful. I found it gave a lovely uplifted shape, great cleavage, and despite the great cleavage, it worked as a "t-shirt bra" because the cups are so close together, my boobs helped each other stay in place and not quadboob. Overall a great bra.

I own 6 of these, 2 in 30GG and 4 in 28H. Love them all. For awhile I was very skeptical of the underwired sports bra, but now I am totally a Panache sport convert.

I LOVE THIS BRA. I'm not really sure how much it "minimizes bounce" over other big-boobed sports bras, but I haven't ONCE thought about my breasts while I'm exercising in this - jogging, sprinting, jumping jacks, jump rope, etc. It's comfortable, prevents excessive boob sweat through the super high center gore, and kind of looks like something a superhero would wear, i.e. awesome. I just purchased another one in a different color today. So glad I took the chance on this - it's amazing.

I love this bra! It fits like my Brav Satine (30H), is gorgeous, and provides a great shape.

-Update May 2015 - I still love this bra, though it's a tad small for me now. I never wear it without an extender and that helps mostly, but I could use a bit more cup room also these days. The top of the cups now have a bit more of a tendency to fold or crease an inch or so away from the center gore, which smooths out under clothing but is a note. I did have to reinforce the sewing attaching the hooks and eyes to the band from when I was wearing it without an extender (too tight!) but that's an easy hand-sewing fix and it's held up wonderfully.
