Porcelain Moulded Strapless Bra Customer Reviews

I bought this bra to go with my Halloween costume, and while it did somewhat work for that purpose, it still shows with the halterneck. The "plunge" really doesn't go as low as I'd like it to. The good news is that this bra does stay up as promised, though the cups tend to fold at the bottom. They are also very flat near the gore, which makes it look like I am felling out though I am not. The shaping is so-so... it kind of flattens me out in a way that I do not particularly care for, but I have tried worse strapless bras. Overall, this seems to be the only strapless bra on the market in this size with a plunge front and it is fairly comfortable, but still not the best.

Just received this bra today to go with a French maid costume for Halloween, and thankfully it is going to work. This seems to be the ONLY strapless plunge bra on the market in this size that will go with this costume. Strapless bras are less of an issue because you don't wear them as much... anyway, I like that this bra is molded and does its best to hold me up without ridiculous amounts of padding. The "plunge" part isn't as deep as I was hoping for, but it's not like I have many options at this size. I don't like that the bottom part of the cup collapses and doesn't really hold any tissue, though I fill out this bra and am almost too big for it. I also don't like how high the sides come up, but once again, I can't be too picky at this size. I was fitted at a 32FF but vary between 32FF and 32G, so I ordered up in this bra and it seems to fit well. Overall not a bad purchase, I hope it lives up to its promises!

The cups for this bra are softer than preferable for me in a strapless. Also the bra sat a little low on the ribcage. I will continue the quest for the strapless that fits, lifts, and still allows you to wear a low cut shirt. braspecialist, , Age: 20's October, 2009, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: 30DD

It seems really nice; it was just too small in the cup for me. Also, some Panache bras ride too low on the torso for me. This one seemed to ride low, though that could have been a matter of overall size. I love Panache's 'Harmony' balconette bra and would like to know which of their bras are based on the same model. Most of their older models are just too low and flat for me, since my breasts are already frustratingly 'pendulous.'

Also (again, this might be due somehow to the one I tried being too small in the cup for me), it seemed to point me left and right, while flattening me out in the middle. I would rather have my breasts centered up front and outwards, than flattened and going out to the sides.

HerRoom Response: Thank you for your feedback. We have forwarded your comments to Panache.

Panache Response: Thank you! Panache Strapless style 3370 tends to run a bit shallow in the cup in general, so since the customer is already a G cup, I'm afraid this particular strapless may not be the right fit. I would however recommend our new Strapless Evie style 5320 as that style goes up to H cup and I think would be the best fit, but I would recommend trying both GG and H cups in this case. As far as other silhouettes go, if she liked style 4031 Harmony Balconnette, I suggest she try Confetti Bra style 4071, those two bras are same shape, she might also want to try style 3256 Tango Plunge. In the last style, I would suggest going up to GG cup. Anne, PA, Age: 20's October, 2009, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: 30G

I ordered the next size up like everyone else. The cups fit me strangely, however. My breasts fit the cups, but there was this weird, small empty space at the nipple area that was like a wrinkle. There is no way the 36DD (my usual size) would have fit, yet the cups of this bra were too large in the nipple area only, by about 2 cm! It was weird! So I had to return them both (I got the the strapped one as well). I didn't think this bra did much for my breasts either, to be honest. Not that impressed overall.

HerRoom Response: The symptom you describe many times happens when a woman has implants because the shape of the breast is rounder. We do not know if this is your situation. Panache may simply not be your brand. melissa, phoenix, Age: 30's September, 2009, Tall (5'9" and over) Size: 36e

I seriously don't understand why HerRoom won't suggest buyers to go up a size. I ordered this bra in a 28E (which is my Panache bra size) and it fit horribly. My breasts were spilling out on all sides. If you look at the reviews, most of the customers seem to be having this problem. I bought another strapless style by Panache with the style number of 5210 in the same size, and it fit true to size as do their other styles. Aside from the fit, the bra seemed to at least stay up with the silicone backing and I like the fact that it was low cut. Of all of the Panache bras I have tried, this is my least favorite. I seriously recommend you girls to go up a size if you want a good fit. Otherwise get the Panache Underwire Strapless Bra 5210 which HerRoom also sells!

HerRoom Response: Thank you for your feedback. HerRoom buyers and Tomima have had a conversation with Panache about the sizing due to all the reviews being posted. As a result, Tomima has added a tip to this item. We are also posting a response from Panache.

Panache Response: "Due to the molded plunge construction of this strapless bra, the cup sometimes may appear to fit a bit shallower, so we recommend customers go up a cup size in this style" Mechelle, United States, Age: 20's September, 2009, Petite (5'3" and under) Size: 28E

Wonderful fit and good workmanship. However, I wished they would make this one in size 34GG or 34H. I would order several in all colors. Tolerance, Atlanta, GA, USA, Age: 60's September, 2009, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: 34G

This was the first bra I've bought after being 'fitted' . (Turns out I'd previously been getting a size too small at a 36F, whereas I'm actually a 36 FF to 36 G ... anyway...) Basically, I'm a bit disappointed in this bra. As a strapless bra, it works fine and overall is fairly comfortable, stays up as reasonably as I'd expect given the size of my bust -- but as soon as I add the straps (which, being an active person, I absolutely do as soon as I'm not wearing a top that needs strapless-ness), the underwire cuts into the my sides. Leaves tender red marks, verging on sores. REALLY uncomfortable by the end of the day, and frequently makes the next day worse, as bras touch the same spots regardless of which bra I wear. Also, the underwire almost seems to poking out already... I've had it for only 3 weeks! Anyway, it looks fabulous under everything from strapless to tee shirts, which is why I give it 3 stars, but my very sore sides do not let me go any higher.

You have to order up a cup size. I normally wear a 30E, but was overflowing the top. The 30F fit much better. Very comfortable. Jennifer, Cypress, TX, USA, Age: teen September, 2009, Petite (5'3" and under) Size: 30F

Thank you for having this in stock. I have been trying to get this from another company since Dec 2008. One call to you and it came within a week. Anna, Hawaii, Age: 40's August, 2009, Petite (5'3" and under) Size: 32DD

Finally!!! A strapless bra that fits!!! I've now entered into the fashion world of tube tops and strapless dresses. This bra fits perfectly and is surprisingly comfortable. jennifer, washington, Age: 30's July, 2009, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: 30ff
