For the Bandeau Bikini tops, Panache utilized a clever design feature to ensure the band stays put while you swim:

Bandeau_Top

Personally, the Halle and Veronica were stand-out sets because of the luxurious and glamorous colors, but ultimately, I loved the nautical Nancy more.  My set should be arriving within a month or so, and I can’t wait!  All of my previous swimwear was either black or some best-I-could-do-with-my-boobs mismatched set, and I decided to up the ante and choose a swimsuit with some color and pattern.  Of course, it is disappointing to see that the Superbra line offers only one collection in 28 bands . . . and it’s all black.

Your turn:  Which styles were you favorite?  Which collection did you like better: Cleo or Superbra?

P.S.  Even though we do not carry swimwear in the store, I can order these styles depending upon stock availability, and I am happy to offer a 10% discount on your purchase.  Since this is a specialty item, we would request a 20% deposit which can be redeemed for store credit if they do not fit.  If you’re interested, please email sophisticatedpair[at]gmail.com.

    I’m on the hunt for a good bandeau. I like the idea of getting one with detachable straps, in case this new technology is not sufficient to keep it up. My favorite from panache was the Veronica, from Cleo it was the Hattie.

    I’ve heard you can get away with sizing up in the band for swimwear so I might give the 30FF a try rather than my usual 28G. Unfortunately Panache wires tend to be a bit wide on me so I’ll have to wait and see.

      Hi Daisy! I’m curious to see how the new bandeau styles hold up during swimming as the idea is promising. It’s such a shame the 28 bands only have black to choose from in the regular line!

    Oooh, the bandeaus are coming in H cups? That is new, right? It could be very exciting news–they could work as strapless bras! There are still so few strapless bras that go up to an H.

    Thanks for doing these posts!

      You’re most welcome! I was kind of shocked they were offering the bandeau bras up to an H cup as well, but I had never though of using them as a strapless bra. That’s a great idea. If you get chance to check them out, I’d be interested to hear your thoughts!

      Tallulah is another gorgeous one! I think the dark panels on the side would be very figure-flattering too.

        Maissa, I agree with you on Superbra being my favorite of the two, and really it’s mostly due to the size range on Cleo’s line! Although there were definitely some sophisticated pieces from Superbra.

          Back on this post again! Tell me what do you think about savannah’ straps? I saw the back on figleaves and start wondering if it will be really supportive. I love both print & colors and since I got my eyes on this swim I cannot see anyone else lol. And I didn’t find the compromise in fantasie / freya. Which swimwear will you advise? Pleeaaase helpppp!

            From what I have seen of the Panache swimwear, the materials are pretty sturdy. Are you thinking of the bandeau one? I’m not sure of the support although I’ve heard good things. Dezi has the Halle which fits very well, and I have the Nancy (review coming soon). My only complaint with the Nancy is that the bottoms do not cover enough for me on the rear. However, both the balcony bra and the tankini offer incredible support!

            Thinking of the moulded balconnet. the front part of strap is decorative. I know that support must come from band but… Ok anyway I’ve 2 weeks to fix my mind, so waiting for your review! I loved the nancy which reminds me of darcy bra.

            Ah okay! I wear a 30HH, and so far the swimwear I’ve tried has been pretty darn supportive even if I slip the straps off my shoulders. They keep the bands firm and the underwires are a little less soft and flexible than usual too.

      Maissa, I am interested to see how the Nancy fits and feels when it arrives. I own three Panache bras now, and I love all of them. So I have high hopes for the swimwear!

    I recently purchased the Halle Tankini . I tried on the tankini top and will say, I never had a bathing suit fit so well.
