**Shape info:** very projected, pendulous, center full, somewhat narrow root (though doubt if Omega shaped), high on chest.
**I really like wearing this bra!** It is very soft, the elastic on the outer sides of the cups and bottom of the band is smooth, not scalloped, which I think is lovely. The fabric on the lower cup is reinforced with a less stretchy lining, but the top cup is quite stretchy. It also looks very pretty in a clean, minimalistic, yet feminine way.
Either this bra is one cup size too small for me, or there's a slight shape mismatch between my breasts and the bra cups. Some tissue escapes ... in the center after a bit of time and moving around. And the top part of the cups looks a tiny bit flattened when looking from top down - but it doesn't seem to be visible through clothing. (But I noticed that the tissue escaping *can* be seen through clothes in some cases though.) That is about the only negatives I could say about this bra. Maybe also the thing that I get more boob sweat with this one comparing to the Ewa's BM ones, as this one allows the breasts to touch in the center.
**The center panel seems to tack to my sternum. Not very strictly so, but a lot better than the BM Deser Nugatowy that I also currently have in size 70HH** - and more so than the absolute majority of bras that I've owned and tried on so far. For context, the only other two that have ever tacked have been Ewa's BM Bezowa Perla and Cleo's Kayla Balconnet.
[The next two paragraphs are about center panels (not) tacking and comparison of this vs. other EM bras that I have:]
I've wondered if I should make as big of a deal out of this as I do, but the bras whose center panels did tack seemed more comfortable and secure than ones that don't tack. It also seems like the gores not tacking do shift the angle of the wires, so the wires can put more pressure on the ribcage than intended. I noticed when wearing the BM Deser Nugatowy nearly daily that sometimes I got a bit of a pain where the bottom of the underwire sat (relieved by shifting the underwire so it doesn't press on that spot). I'll still see how I'll feel after a while of wearing this one but so far it seems promising.
(The only other Ewa bra that has so far tacked for me before has been BM Bibi Bezowa Perla in size 70G. Even now that it's quite a bit too small, it seems closer to tacking than the BM Deser Nugatowy in the more correct size. (It was also the only bra whose wires have ever poked the sides of my breasts - not armpits though - painfully after a bit of wearing so I didn't get much wear out of it, but technically, it might be the closest one I've ever gotten to a correctly fitting bra. Besides this one maybe.) I have a theory that it is because the wires are shorter - and maybe the fabric is a bit stretchier? Anyway, the PLM might be, in this regard, the best bra I've found so far, as it has the cup volume needed but is a lot lower in the center, and I think that the description on their website also stated it's lower in the armpits, which feels true right now. Haven't measured the bra yet.)
**All in all,** it is a very soft, lovely, comfy bra to wear during days I don't have to do much vigorous physical activity. Maybe it'd be more movement-secure if I had purchased a larger cup size, hard to say. But for now, definitely keeping this one!
