Plus Size Women's Envy Balconnette Stretch Lace Bra, Navy, 28F

I was so excited to order this bra, because I recently discovered Panache Jasmine and fell in love with it. I was finally fitted several months ago, only to lose weight and change sizes again. I now wear 36GG or 36H for the most part, but in Panache I have been running 38GG. The Jasmine holds me up and center with a very uplifted, round shape. It has 4-part cups with side support, which this bra also has, so I thought it would be a guaranteed success. Well, I am so sad and disappointed that it just does not have the same support because all the material is too stretchy, and the cups are more separated. I am especially disappointed because the nude is perfect for my skin tone under lighter colored tops, and the seams are so nice and flush that they don't show at ALL! But the support is not there, affecting how my back feels and how my shape appears under clothing. I may reorder in a 36GG and/or 36H to see if that helps, but I am holding off for now because I suspect it is the stretchy material and the wider placement of the cups, not the size, that is the problem.

Scratchy, as noted by others. Also, the wires are too long for a petite torso and stab me in the armpits. The back closure for the 36G is only two hooks high, which is NOT enough hooks for comfort, and they should have used sturdier materials for the larger cup sizes. The stuff it is made of is just not up to the task of handling 36G. It is overall flimsy, wiggly, too stretchy, and miserable to wear if you are both petite and big-busted. It fit well when I put it on in the morning but by evening had stretched and slid and rubbed my chest raw. It caused me literal agony.

Bought this on a whim, thinking it could be a cheaper alternative to my all-time favorite, the Prima Donna Madison 32I. Unfortunately, you get what you pay for.Overall a decent bra for the price. Fabric isn't as soft and comfortable as the Prima Donna bras I've owned and the overall quality appears to be less. I ended up returning this one because the underwires were so unbelievably wide and tall. They stretched beyond my armpit onto my back and jammed upward into tender tissue. I am a 5'3", dress size size 8P-10P. Maybe someone taller or broader wouldn't have that problem.

I tried on around 15 different bras I ordered through Amazon and this was by far the best!The side support part really helps push together, and the bra gives me a nice round shape under shirts. The bra itself is a bit thin (no padding), which I don't usually like (usually buy lightly-lined) but it works for this bra. It's not too thin to where you can see everything; it's just enough.I was worried about the lace being itchy but it's really not (and I'm usually sensitive to that sort of thing).The straps are thin, but not too thin to provide support, so you don't look like you're wearing a grandma bra.The sizing is just right. I'm guessing the people that think the sizing is off are not accounting for the difference in the UK sizing system (which is not the same as US)The only "con" I had about this bra is the center gore kind of dug in when I first tried it on. I have a very bony ribcage so am sensitive to that. However, I used my hands to slightly bend the wires out a bit and it fits sooo nicely now.

Beautiful bra but I think I am sized out of the largest cup size.

My new favorite bra! This fits very similarly to the Panache Jasmine. The stretch lace is very forgiving for those of us with slight asymmetry. The subtle herringbone fabric is posh looking and I didn't find it scratchy at all (less scratchy than, say, the Cleo Lucy or Fantasie Salsa). Definitely a great bra.

love love this bra it fit true to my size I plan on buying it an every color they have.

This bra is super cute and provides decent support. The band was pretty tight. I should've gone up a band size and down a cup size to get a sister size, but that's my fault. It stretched out after a few wears and a wash so it wasn't a deal breaker. The material that the front of the bra is made out of is nice but the back is made out of a stiff meshy material that can be a little scratchy but will hopefully soften up with wear. My biggest issue is that it doesn't really work with any of my clothes except thick sweaters and sweatshirts because the ribbing on the pads shows through, which is a real bummer since the bra is comfortable and makes my chest look great. I'll wear the bra in the fall and winter but once spring summer come around it'll be unwearable. I probably won't buy this bra again since it's so impractical. So if you're looking for a smooth bra that you can wear all year around under anything don't go with this one.
