There are apparently at least 3 stores in Berlin that carry Panache: Körpernah, Schöneberg and Viabella Dessous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600601 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 11:18:21 +0000 Astrid 600601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, thanks Heleen! I'll try this store if my order doesn't work out. I didn't know we had something like this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600600 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 11:15:02 +0000 HeleenH 600600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Astrid,</p> <p>I can't find a proper bathing suit in a general lingerie store, but specialty stores usually do carry lots of sizes. Especially this time of the year. Shops like this one: <a href="http://www.koerpernah-berlin.de/k-bademode.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.koerpernah-berlin.de/k-bademode.php</a> It actually carries panache so they might just have the tankini you wanted to actually try on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600585 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 09:56:51 +0000 Astrid 600585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Elly. I'm only a 30E when the depth of the cups isn't too big, I would be alright with 30DD most of the time only that these are often not wide enough. I've heard that Panache tends to run wide, so I hope it will work out. I had the same feeling about swimwear bottoms running small, I already went up one size when I ordered the 12, my normal size would be a 10. The size chart said 14, but I've also read that some people had to exchange the size they ordered inititally to one size down, so I hope the 12 is sufficient.</p> <p>It's a gamble! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600451 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 02:54:19 +0000 Elly 600451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck--- I find I actually wear a bigger size in Panache than I do in Freya or Fantasie, but it is because of the width vs. depth of the cups works. Really really hard to tell!</p> <p>Swimwear bottoms usually run small, but from lingere companies this might not be true. I often wear a smaller panty size in natori undies than I do in DKNY, for example. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600248 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 21:38:29 +0000 Astrid 600248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After reading up on some online reviews I ordered the 30DD and the brief in size 12. I hope it works out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600236 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 20:29:29 +0000 Astrid 600236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking about going with the 32D, but I'm still not 100% sure. I have a Freya bikini top in 32D that's just a tad too small and I've heard that Freya runs small, so I'm guessing that a 32D with Panache should work. I'm still unsure about the briefs though. I could maybe order both sizes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600142 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 19:01:39 +0000 Astrid 600142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Meredith. I never did that either in the past, but I got so used to having a good fit with my bras that I don't want to wear ill-fitting swimwear anymore and here in Germany my size is not available in the stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600133 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 18:51:12 +0000 Meredith1953 600133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh dear... it is cute and I am no help. I don't think I would ever buy a swimsuit without actually trying it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/panache-swimwear-sizing#post-600130 Fri, 20 Apr 2012 18:47:46 +0000 Astrid 600130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been thinking I need to update my swimwear and found this Tankini I like the look of. But now I'm not sure about the sizing. </p> <p>My bra size is a 30E (UK), but with swimwear I prefer a slightly wider band, so a 32DD would be the corresponding size. But if Panache runs bigger than a 32D would probably be better. Anyone know about Panache sizing? And the size chart tells me I should order a 14 (UK) with the brief, but I never would wear a 14 in other bottoms. If I hadn't looked in the size chart I would probably have ordered a 12. </p> <p>Returns are not that easy and would take a bit longer and I don't want to order two sizes. Any advice? </p>
