The first bra I'm not dying to take off
Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2016
I'm very new to European sizing. I just recently learned I've been wearing the wrong bra size thanks to /r/abrathatfits. They've got a very helpful bra size calculator, so I used that to determine my size. I was wearing a 34C before, but I measured to a 32E. I ordered this because I needed to determine if 32E is right and the free returns gave me peace of mind, but this fits perfectly.Great design - There isn't any padding in the cups, but the material is forgiving enough to not poke through too obviously. I wouldn't wear this under sheer shirts or thin tees, but it's great for anything I wear with an undershirt or regular men's t-shirts. Since I can wear this all day, it's nice for long work days. The lace on the bottom of the underwire slightly folds up (check the picture), but it doesn't affect how it feels.Great shape - This bra nicely shapes your breasts and supports them so well. It's subtle, but it just makes my breasts the perfect shape somewhere between Wonder Woman (I can dream) and Kim Possible.Great support - I have a small fitness trampoline that I used to test this bra with. I never knew this support was possible because I can't even get this right in sports bras (yet!). I was able to wear this comfortably for the entire day, and I can't remember the last time I've felt that way. I didn't need to bend the underwires, but you're able to if necessary.I'm not a bra expert, just a woman wanting to find comfortable bras for once in my life. I was very impressed with this bra, and I highly recommend it!
I have reached bra Nirvana.

Wow. This is a perfect fit for me. I have been dilly-dallying with the Cleo line from Panache, and while I loved a few of those bras, there was always a but: Lucy fits like a glove but has embroidery that makes my breasts look like they have measles under every shirt I wear, Lily has great narrow projection but the colors just don't work under all but the darkest tops. All I really wanted was a Cleo Lucy in nude with no embroidery, in nude.Effectively that is what this bra is, with better material. I originally ordered a G cup, and while it fit the stretchy lace at the top was a bit wrinkly as if I wasn't filling it out. So I returned it and ordered the FF which is just perfect. The bra is seamed, so yes, it can be noticeable if you're wearing a thin material, but that is the only drawback. It's set wide enough for my shoulders and holds my breasts in a nice shape that more narrowly projected than the Lucy, but not as narrow as the Lilly. Aside from the seaming, the material of the bra is undetectable under a shirt, but it is still pretty, not dowdy. And god bless them, they made it in nude.The Panache bras are more expensive than the Cleos, but I can see why. If this doesn't work for you, definitely check out the other Panache options, I am completely sold.
Yay!!!!! Finally!!!!

Very nice. Reasonable support for an unlined bra - and I'm a 34gg! The wires weren't too pokey and the material was soft. The stretch lace allows for a rounder shape, at least for breasts that are full on top, without the top of the cups cutting into your skin. Definitely going to get another
This one is GREAT!

I wear the Jasmine and love it. I was nervous to try another one, but wow, this is amazing! It fits right up close to my sternum and firmly underbust on the loosest hooks to start. The cup is deep enough and the stretch is great for me because I am full on top and always have to tuck myself in because I'm bulging out...I hate that! The side view is ROUND which I love and many times, I've tried one and it looks like torpedoes and flattened me out on top. This is perfect. My underbust measures 34, so I took a 34 band. My full bust measures 44, so with a 10-inch difference, the HH cup (UK size) fits perfectly. That should help somebody get the correct size. It's tricky with the double letters when you're counting a cup size per inch. I may be able to take the H cup in this, but the HH is not loose in the slightest, so I think this is the right size, which I also take in the Jasmine. Because Amazon makes it so easy to order, get it in a couple of days and return for free, I am able to experiment with sizes and send one back, keeping the correct one. I think I have settled on 34HH now. I recommend this bra and I will get another one soon.
Love it

This is one of the best bras I've found for larger breasts. Especially for those of us with smaller ribcages. Most bras seem to have very wide-set cups, making you look wider from the front. This bra brings 'em forward, without making them too pointy. It actually makes me, and my boobs, look smaller. If you want cute patterns, or some variation in color, try Panache's Jasmine bra. It the same cut as Envy, but isn't full lace; and they change the colors and patterns each season.
The most comfortable bra my wife has ever worn!

My wife wears a 34DD and being comfortable has been a struggle for her for the last 39 years we've been married. We have learned not to be afraid of cost and for many years went to a specialty store that offered custom tailoring and were quite pleased to spend $125 - 150 for a bra. When the demand for their services declined they closed the doors and we started shopping at Victoria's Secret. My wife found several over the years that she was happy with, but only so. This last Christmas I was doing some research on bras and I found that the Panache Envy was highly recommended for larger sized women and I gave it a try. Well she went crazy over it! I kept waiting for something to go wrong, but wash after wash and day after day she feels better and looks better. Much more natural than I thought a large sized bra could look. I bought another for Valentines day, our anniversary is coming up in June and I have a feeling that I'll be thinking about the color for Panache #3.

I love the Panache Envy style, very supportive (38HH) and reasonably pretty too.The Panache Envy style is functional and fine for everyday wear. It is full cup, of sturdy construction.It's a shame the colours and patterns are not more varied, like Panache Jasmine, but hey. I'm happy!Packaging was appropriate, they arrived swiftly and excellent value via Amazon. Thank you

Great price for a normally expensive bra. (I guess its coz the colour isn't very popular!!) Not a problem to me.Would recommend.

I love these bras I have bought 4 of them they fit perfect on the bigger bust and so flexible in movement, I wear mines for work as they r so comfy I usually get friction from my bras over the course of a day but not with these ones they fit like a glove

This is a great bra. I have two of these now because they're great for everyday wearing. The underwiring tends to be a bit on the narrow side and pokes after wearing for a long duration but it's not too bothersome. Would definitely recommend.

Most supportive bra Iâve been able to find for my J cup size. Only ever hand wash or the wires will come out! As with all large wires bras.
