I got my hands on the beautiful Ewa Michalak Sm Summer Time (554), but was heartbroken when it didn't fit like I expected. The band wasn't snug enough, the cups were not my ideal width, and the upper cup didn't support very well. Exchanging for a smaller size would likely lead to the same fit issues I had in the Sm Burek (and returns are too expensive anyway). So, the only thing that's left to do really, is to bend the bra to my will (and boobs) - literally. I bent the wires to the shape of my roots. DIY customisation. Bam. It's so much more comfortable. This helped with the loose band, too (I don't have to wear it on the tightest setting anymore, yay!) Now there's just the loose fabric to fix. It looks like it can be solved by bunching up the excess and fastening it at the straps. I'm going to make this baby fit!
