Panache Bra Size Chart & Sizing Guide
The full-bust specialist: firm bands, deep projected cups and UK letters to K, plus one of the best-known sports bras in real sizes.
Panache in numbers
Panache is built around D+ fit. Its wires run wide and its bands firm; cups are projected and hold their shape at large sizes. Cleo covers smaller cups and younger prints, Sculptresse extends bands to 46, and Panache Sport is a fitting-room staple for high-impact support.
Sub-brands and lines: Cleo by Panache, Sculptresse, Panache Sport.
Your measured size in Panache
How this is computed: your US size converted into UK notation, then adjusted for how Panache typically grades: firm bands, true cups.
Where Panache sits on the size grid

Does Panache run small or big?
Panache bands run firm across UK bands 28–46: if you sit between bands, take the larger band with the same cup volume (a sister size).
Panache cups grade true to the measured difference from D to K: a gap or overflow in the measured letter is a shape signal, so change the cut before the size.
Panache wires run wide: good for wide-root and shallow shapes; narrow roots may find the wire ending under the arm. Straps: Wide, well set.
