When it comes to lingerie, the right fit makes all the difference. A well-fitting bra doesn’t just enhance your shape – it supports your posture, boosts your confidence, and ensures all-day comfort. Panache Lingerie, renowned for its expert craftsmanship and dedication to fuller busts, has perfected the art of bra fitting. If you’ve ever struggled with straps digging in, cups gaping, or bands riding up, this guide will help you find your perfect Panache fit.
Why Bra Fitting Matters
Most women wear the wrong bra size without even realizing it. This can cause discomfort, poor support, and even impact your outfit’s overall look.Panache bras are designed with precision, offering sizes from D to K cups, ensuring that women of all bust sizes find the support they deserve.
The Panache Fitting Formula
Here are the key elements Panache focuses on during a fitting:
1. The Band
The band should sit level all the way around your body, parallel to the floor.
It provides 80% of the bra’s support, so it should feel snug but not restrictive.
If the band rides up, you may need a smaller band size.
2. The Cups
Your breasts should sit fully inside the cups without bulging over (quad-boob effect) or leaving gaps.
The underwire should trace the natural crease of your bust and sit flat against your ribcage.
If the center gore (the part between the cups) doesn’t sit flat, the cup size may be too small.
3. The Straps
Straps should sit comfortably on your shoulders without digging in.
They provide 20% of the support, so if you’re relying on them to lift, your band might be too big.
4. The Shape
Panache bras are designed with different silhouettes – balconette, plunge, and full-cup – so you can choose a style that complements your shape and wardrobe.
For example, balconette styles like the iconic Panache Jasmine lift and project for a rounded shape, while plunge styles like Ana create a flattering neckline.
How to Check Your Fit
Panache recommends running through this checklist when trying on a bra:
Does the band sit firmly and evenly?
Do the cups fully contain your breast tissue?
Does the center gore lie flat against your chest?
Can you fit two fingers comfortably under the band and straps?
Do you feel supported and uplifted without discomfort?
If you answer “yes” to all of the above, you’ve found your Panache fit!
Professional Bra Fitting
While online guides are helpful, nothing beats a professional fitting. Many Panache stockists and lingerie boutiques offer free fittings with trained specialists who understand the brand’s unique sizing. Even if you know your size, Panache recommends checking your fit at least once a year, as your body can change due to weight fluctuation, hormonal shifts, or lifestyle.
Finding the right bra is transformative. With Panache Lingerie’s expert designs and commitment to fit, comfort, and style, you can finally enjoy lingerie that works with your body – not against it. Take the time to explore different Panache styles, get fitted, and discover how much of a difference the perfect bra can make.
