PanacheWomen's Envy Balconnet Bra (7285)

For reference my band size is 32.5 and my best size is 39.5. I am a 34H. They unfortunately didn’t have a 34H so I got a 32H and the band is a bit snug, but I got bra extenders because I love how it covers all of my boob. I don’t have any spillage and I like the coverage a lot. My right boob is slightly bigger than my left due to breast-feeding but it’s not a problem at all. The straps are sturdy even though they are thinner and I feel so confident in it! The support is great and I don’t feel like I’m falling out and I don’t have side boob

I have spent literally $3K the last 2 months in search of bras…I knew my bust had gotten bigger after baby#2 but omg I am now a 32JJ. That is an N cup in American sizing (which I think doesn’t even exist??). I started on size H and just kept going up with different brands/sizes. If you experience any kind of pain or discomfort with these bras then it’s literally just the wrong size. Once I found the right one it was like butter!! I love the fabric under the straps on this one especially, it’s so soft. It’ll take some getting used to the cup seams showing under my shirts but the fit and support is worth it.Also for the girls who have boobs that are close together - if the center gore is in the way go down a band size and add a spacer to the back. The 34 band fits me fine but sends the girls too far apart and it doesn’t look right. And the band extenders are only $6 on here so it’s a perfect fix! This particular bra has enough stretch that i didn’t even need a spacer for the 32 band.

True to fit and great quality. I bought this to wear under a bridesmaid dress and it lifts well.

First: I love Panache.I've worn Panache for many years. They give me great shape and support, which is hard to find as a 34/36 K.I have two problems with this bra. The first is the band chafes my rib cage. But just in the front. This happens with all my bras except for a really, really old bra I own. The second is that the cups are a little wavy on me. I've re-ordered the bra in a different size to see if that fixes it, but if it doesn't it may just be because I'm in between sizes.The good points on this bra: the lace is soft, the straps are easily adjustable, and it's lovely to look at!

I'm losing a lot of weight and bought this based on measurements and past experience with Panache. I used the abrathatfits calculator (specifically for UK sizing, which Panache uses). The cup is a smidge big; I could've probably gone down a size and been okay, but it's not bad enough to return, especially because I snagged these cheap and won't fit in them long anyway.The issue is that out of the two bras I bought in this style, one broke on the first wash. Delicate cycle, in a garment bag, and the wires popped right out the front. I was not about to bother attempting a return, so I just tucked them back in and stitched the pockets closed better. I always hang them to dry. But if I thought I'd be in these bras longer than a few weeks, I would probably be more irritated. I'm sure I'm meant to hand wash them, but let's be real here. I'm only gonna bother doing that when I pay $80 for a bra.

This product is big breast friendly, I love the coverage and comfort ability

I purchased this bra in a 32H. I was expecting it to fit because I had ordered from this brand before, and also read reviews about the band running tight and the cups running large. It is one of the most comfortable bras I have ever put on. The gore runs up pretty high, so if you have close set, firm breasts, I would not recommend this bra for you. I have close set, soft breasts, and the gore digs in just the tiniest bit. I find this comfortable because I like the full coverage and have never been fond of plunge bras. Previously I have purchase the Cleo Marcie balconnet by Panache and I loved that bra as well. The Cleo Marcie offers more forward projection, whereas the Envy gives a much more round shape. As has been previously stated in another review, the seam where the lace meets the houndstooth is visible under lightweight blouses. It is a beautiful bra, and I love the way it fits. I would normally have purchased a 30H if I hadn't read about the band being tight. I am glad I went with the 32.

I’m a 38JJ. I LOVE THIS BRA and plan to purchase more. The lift is amazing the comfort of the materialIs soft. I love this bra!
