Didn't fit

I was so excited to get this bra in the mail! Finally a new CHP from Ewa Michalak, and in a really pretty color! Hopefully, since it's a brand new model, this review is helpful to others who are interested in it.
I have a 60G CHP Cappucci-nowy and a 65FF CHP Marcepanowa Magnolia. The 60G is a good fit, though recently the band has been a little tight for me. The 65FF is a bit too big/open on top for me, so I add an extra insert on my smaller side (in addition to the two inserts that came with it). In the case of this bra, I have the same issue but more dramatically ― it's more like my CH Cherry in terms of openness on top. For context, I have even vertical fullness but short roots.
I tightened the straps of this bra to try to help with that, but the notorious Ewa Michalak straps are as wide-set as usual, so tightening them doesn't really help. I may order a 65F next time, though the 65Fs I've tried from EM have consistently been definitely too small.
The design is beautiful. I love this rich, almost reddish purple, and the black and white pattern on the tops of the cups reminds me of Art Deco. The fabric is soft and comfortable. I find the three buttons on the gore very cute ― I sometimes find that Ewa Michalak "does too much" with her bras, adding straps and lace and mesh and this and that when I prefer more simplicity, so the fairly simple but very stylish design of this bra really works for me.
The band is definitely loose, as I'm already fastening it on the second-tightest hooks, but I prefer tight bands and I'm closer to a 26 than a 28 so true 28s or those who don't like tight bands will probably have a better time. The band fits similarly to my 65FF Marcepanowa Magnolia but slightly looser. As with my other CHPs, there is enough immediate and overall projection for me, and the wires stay very close to or in my IMF all day. The wires could be a hint narrower, but since it's a padded bra, I don't notice/it's not an issue.
I love this bra and I'm not too sad that it's too open on top for me (I'm way more disappointed in the 65F SF Iris that I also ordered that ended up being a total flop) because adding the extra insert helps. I will definitely wear this a lot!

This bra is not owned any more

  • It is a gorgeous color and if the cookies work then woohoo and use them. :-)

    For me, I always sized down in the CHP from my BM/SF size, which was 2 cups down from my S/PL size. It gave a nice rounded lift without the cookies, and I don't remember the straps being an issue, though I can't say for sure.

    As long as you have some squish to your breasts, the CHP will allow for sizing down for the extra oomph.

  • So beautiful! I was thinking of asking if this can be done as a PL as I think I do better with them than CHP, but I’ve only tried one so I don’t know if it was the exception or norm.

  • This bra looks gorgeous. Looks great on you! Thanks for posting measurements and so many photos. I definitely want to try it now. Thanks for mentioning the size differences MamaPagan I didn't realize it might be best to size down in some of the styles!

    braluv It all is dependent on the person and their breast tissue, but yes, it sometimes helps!

  • Nice "deep" color - for a moment I taught it was an overlay ;)

    And I'm with you for the buttone, they add a delicious retro touch.
