I decided to take a gamble on Ewa Michalak bras again. The others I tried are too tall for me, and this one is no exception. However, it's only slightly too tall, so I decided to keep it. Part of this might also be a shape issue, as the top of my breasts are slightly conical and shallow. I cannot form any sort of cleavage. However, after washing it, it got a bit softer and the quarter inch on the top folds down across the top of my breast.

After reading about the CHP cuts I ordered down one cup size. I feel a bit squeezed into the bottom of the cup with the cookies in, but without them in I doubt my breasts would be tall enough for this bra. It doesn't hurt so I left the cookies in. I haven't had much experience with a padded bra in my size. The CK Daily Dream collapses on me at the wire and is unwearable. This one seems to stay in my IMF and the cup isn't collapsing at the bottom.

The gore in this bra is pretty low and doesn't press on my tissue. There's a small jewel charm hanging off the gore. The wires are narrow and hard, though not as hard as Panache wires. It doesn't press on any tissue on the sides and feels good to me. The straps are set pretty wide, but don't really bother me that much. The band feels true to size, comfortable on the loosest hook.

Despite the gap at the top, I still think this is a perfectly wearable bra. The gap isn't noticeable under a shirt, and I feel open to trying other CHP cuts in the future.

This bra is not owned any more

  Awesome! I was told that Ewa wouldn't do a 60/65 CHP above a HH cup, period.......hum......wonder if she changed her mind???
  I may have to try & sweet talk her into doing one for me (yeah, I know-dream on)..... I love the open top on the CHP & found it to be helpful in avoiding the minor quad boob issue I get in the S cut.

  MamaPagan I got this from Zathiya, so who knows how old it is. I want another CHP so I hope she did change her mind!

  It was Aisha @ Zathiya who told me that after she went back & forth with Ewa regarding the CHP. I'd asked about 3 different ones, and after the 3rd, she said Ewa was not comfortable doing the CHP in a 60/65 band above an HH cup because she didn't feel it would be supportive enough. She (Ewa) said above the HH cup needed to go with the S style instead. That was maybe 2 months ago or so. My solution was to buy the CHP in a 70J and shorten the band by a few inches. Since you found one, there has to be exceptions to the rule!!!
