I think that it's important to realize that different bras can lift your breast tissue to the same level, but the cup construction plays a big role in shape. Certain constructions can give the illusion of not being lifted- I think you call this the "east-west" syndrome. It's funny how breast shape and body types vary among women and how that can play a role in what they perceive is or is not a good bra/good lift/good shape. It's all kind of relative. <br />I've worked with many, many manufacturers over the course of 10 years and I can say that Panache definitely has the market cornered on shape and options for teeny waisted and full busted gals. The establishment I worked at did complimentary alterations to help make the best products on the market become the perfect products for each customer. I wish every store and their staff had that ability!

It's a beautiful bra and one of my favourites to look at. However it's not a push up like say Freya Deco and it's not moulded like the Porcelain.<br /><br />The Andorra full cup I found to be super comfortable and the lace towards the center front has nice give so it doesn't dig into the skin there at all. It's very supportive but I found it to be a bit pointy as opposed to round in shape.<br /><br />I guess I'd say don't write them off til you try them!<br /><br />(ps I tried these on in both 30G and 28GG when I was last fitted)Cassiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16474749904039072585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-90148280139738098502012-02-06T15:21:56.705-08:002012-02-06T15:21:56.705-08:00My main issue with Panache is the underwires pokin...My main issue with Panache is the underwires poking me in my armpit, so that is fab news!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196047597851863606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-61273346807769269932012-02-01T08:43:34.406-08:002012-02-01T08:43:34.406-08:00The great thing about Panache is that they really ...The great thing about Panache is that they really seem to listen to their customer feedback!Bras I Hatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692999972337398680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-18361096191481535512012-02-01T08:20:46.926-08:002012-02-01T08:20:46.926-08:00That diagram is a great addition to the post.

I think Panache is pretty polarizing as a brand, from what I've seen. Personally I just wish they would diversify and have more options in every shape, as opposed to heavily featuring one shape. <br /><br />Also, I don't mean to disparage the blue shape. It's more that it goes against my natural shape, so I find it less comfortable. I should clarify that.Bras I Hatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692999972337398680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-706716744772949852.post-67387950693879980962012-01-30T15:45:37.521-08:002012-01-30T15:45:37.521-08:00It's funny because the Sienna does exactly tha...It's funny because the Sienna does exactly that on me (not enough uplift with a funny shape).
