Ewa Michalak bra calculator- accurate?
So, normally I need a 28FF or 28G (I take those sizes in Freya Deco which has even been said to run big, but I'd say it's average). However I did my measurements on the Ewa Michalak calculator and it gave me a 30E which is about 3 cup sizes smaller than I actually take. Is that calculator not particularly accurate, or could I be wearing a bra that's too big now? I feel like my 28FFs now can't possibly be too big because after wearing them, I still sometimes get red marks on my boobs
Just for reference:
Ribcage = 26-27 (depending)
Bust standing= 34-34.5 (depending)
Bust leaning over= 36

I have roughly the same measurements as you, about an inch larger in the standing and leaning but same rib cage, and I also wear the same size in the Deco. I was suggested a 60G by people on here and ABTF. I also got a 30E on the calculator. I think most seem to agree not to follow it. Hope that helps.
I recommend you take your normal cup volume, or even order a size up in a few models, like PL. As far as the band, it really depends but you should be fine in most of their 28's. Some of them you may need 26 or 30 though.
