Size help, please?

Okay, since Ewa Michalak apparently won't make my size any more (60HH/J in PL), Freya's 28s are, as far as I've seen, too stretchy for my 28" ribcage, and Panache wires wrap around to my back even when I sister-size up a band, what are my options? I'd been considering trying Comexim (I think 60L or M? But I can't decide, and I think I'm just going to have to order both and see what happens), but because no two Polish brands use the same cup sizes, I can't tell if I'm sized out of the others or not. Does anyone know? For example, is it true that Kris Line runs tight? The 65s listed seem to vary a fair bit, but since it's a different style or two in every size range, it's hard to tell. So if you know anything about any of them, especially if you have insight into how the sizes compare with/translate from EM, please let me know!

  • I am new to this new bra size stuff. But, I do know that I am a 26.5 band and Mark and spencer plunge bra I received yesterday was tight on my 24 inch waist. I don't know if that helps any. I will have to put 2 band extenders on it when I get them so I can wear it. other than the band being like 23 or 24 I love the bra.

  • Kris Line runs very tight, imo: I think they are a plus-four type of brand. You can look at the band measurements on this site to see how tight. I bought some bras from them years ago and they ran super-small in band AND cup.

    Panache mentioned that they might start making smaller bands in Cleo, so maybe drop them an email letting them know you want that? They do make 28s, but some of their bands are stretchy.
