Wow, I totally love this bra! More than the bra I'd been waiting for! I LOVE the rich chocolate of the lace AND the taupe-ish color of the trim. the cups fit like a dream! (yes, on the high coverage side, but I'm good with that!) Band is much firmer than the S Magique. Slightly loose on my smaller side, but I didnt even adjust the straps, so that might be correctable. This seems like one of my best yet, somehow!

I need to really think about it. I mean, i wanted the Magique for so long lol. and I generally find S more comfy on days I feel achy, but BM more comfy on days I feel fine. I kinda like the Mojito, which comes in S and BM. and also the Glamour (S). But I need to spend a little more time thinking about this Magique and whether I should keep it or not.
Wow. This color is amazing. The Ewa photos didn't do it justice. I'm glad this fits so well!
Gorgeous!
Very flattering, looks like a great fit and the shade (mink/grey/brown/taupe?) really suits you indeed (:
Wow that color is gorgeous on your skin tone . The fit looks lovely too. I just keep grabbing my bm bra so comfortable. Looks like you found a winner .
Looks great! I agree with everyone that the color looks great with your skin tone. I have one BM bra, but I seriously need to get more. So comfortable!
I love the cocoa colour of this bra. It fits exactly the same as my 60J - Ewa Michalak » Bm Szmaragd (794). I'm glad both of them are so consistent with each other!

Looks great on you! :)
Thank you, I think I like this cut 😀
MY SHAPE: Projected, center full, tall and narrow roots.
THE TAKEAWAY: Construction very similar to the 30G - Cleo » Hettie Balconnet Bra (9011)! The stretch lace panel on top makes this a forgiving bra, and I can almost get away with it in both a 65G (one cup size down) and a 75F (two cup sizes down). Good projection, handles my center-fullness admirably. Band is TTES (True To Ewa Size), stretching to ~31". If you mostly wear padded Ewa styles, you may need to size down in the cup for the BM. The stretch lace is good for my tall roots, but should accommodate both FOT ... and even-full breasts well.
DETAILS: In my review of the Cleo Hettie, I note that it (and the Marcie) square me off on the sides, lending to a somewhat odd torpedo shape looking down. For whatever reason, and despite what seems to be a very similar seaming construction, the BM does not do this; I get a very round shape from all angles. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the stretch lace covers the entire cup? Maybe the lace is molding me into a rounder shape? I guess we'll see, when I eventually try the SM.
I have so far tried three BM bras: 75F - Ewa Michalak » Bm Szmaragd (794), 65G - Ewa Michalak » Bm Bibi Flamenco (808), and the Naomi. All three were beautiful, but I think the Naomi is a stand-out for me, with the way that the lace is only on the cups, the exposed band pleasantly-silken to the touch, and the choice to leave the stretch lace panel unlined, which creates a very elegant look on the skin. That said, do note that the Naomi is unlined: the seam on the inside of the cup is much more prominent against your skin than in the other two BMs, and I'm sure there are people for whom that would be a sensory issue.
I've read several reviews that call out the BM as having hard wires. I'm not the person to ask about that, because I've never actually met a bra with wires too hard for my comfort. The only time I've even really noticed wire hardness was when I used to (gulp) put bras on upside-down and backwards, then wiggle them around and yank them up. Doing that with some of my Panache bras caused a hilarious, audible SLAP as the gore viciously whipped into place. But even then, when I wore them, they weren't actually uncomfortable. I will say that the BM has the firmest tack I've experienced in an Ewa Michalak, but since I've probably worn most of her padded bras in the wrong size I'm not really sure that's not the reason.
Currently, the BM is my best-fitting bra. For many of the others, what I'm calling good is in practice a little small in the cups, or a little big in the band, or a little wide in the straps. The Naomi BM is none of these things, at least not for me. (The strap width is especially good in the too-small Flamenco, though, so that in itself might be a good reason to try more BMs in 65...)

It looks beautiful on you! I just ordered their new Gorzka, which is also a simiar colour/lace (though I got the M cut).
I get the same "square" /00\ shape in the Marcie, Minnie, and Lily, and it drives me bonkers because otherwise they are such great bras! I've never had that issue in Ewa's bras. I feel like it's caused by how the bra distributes the weight of your breasts, but I'm not really sure.
klilly3 wow that emoji is PERFECT, that's exactly the shape! I know that it's part of their effort to get me "front and center" but it looks SO SILLY when I glance down. Thankfully it's really not noticeable to other people, but I do tend to look down ;)
With the Panache Jasmine, which also does it, I'm sure it's the side support sling. I'm center-full and fairly soft, so side support slings are pretty much always overkill. Marcie and Hettie both lack an actual sling panel, but their two-part balconette cup (with the single vertical seam) seems to have a similar effect by not giving me enough space to assume my natural round shape on the sides...
But the BM theoretically has that same construction. Is it seam placement? Are they maybe just curving the panel in a way that agrees more with my shape...? Or is it the stretch lace giving me a round shape all over? Seamless lace cups always give me a nice round shape.
Wilderness1 I've never tried the M cut, entirely because I'm just barely outside its range :( 70G in BM, probably 70GG in other cuts though I've yet to find a padded Ewa that really agreed with me.
Everyone else: thanks ;o;
klilly3 That's the shape I have naturally with no bra on. I'm all centre fullness, quite empty at the sides and I can never find bras that are designed for that shape. All I can find round me out but too far out, the apex is generally an inch away from where my nipples are so I get pushed apart uncomfortably into cups too wide. I can't stand the east west spread they create. I like my boobs to stay where they are naturally - in front of my chest, not pulled under my arms as if I want the lying down look whilst stood up! Lol
So maybe that bra would actually suit me? Though it would have to have a very narrow and low gore (I'm not familiar with the brand or the style names) due to how close set my boobs are. I can hold the stylus from my tablet in between my boobs with no bra on, they are that close set. Pens are generally too wide though. Don't even know why places size the gaps using fingers. Nope! Ha ha
rainbrasspetals when I first got my Lily and was self conscious of the shape I made my mom who happened to be visiting me look from all angles and swear it didn't look weird! I think it really is just disconcerting from our view looking down, because it's not what we're used to. I think it must be a combination of seam placement, the shape of each panel, and strap placement.
AlexaFaie it sounds like you have the exact opposite situation that @rainbraspetals and I do. It does sound like the Marcie and Minnie may be a good shape for you, but they have fairly high gores that would likely be problematic with your close set breasts. Mine are moderate to wide set, so I can't help you much with that, but I'd check out Love4Pollinators great detailed reviews, I know she has worked hard to find a bra that works and is also close set.
I bought this at the same time I bought a BM Bibi Bezowa and this seems like it is a size smaller, especially in the band.
Band is very small for a 60. It feels comfortable on me with an 1 1/4 " extra with an extender.
I am short rooted, very center full with touching breasts in a bra and need a lot of immediate projection. My breast are very dense and heavy, so aren't overly maleable.
Gores are always a problem for me. Anything taller than about 1 1/2 " will press on one breast. This may be a function
of ... not have enough center projection. I'm just not quite sure on that.
Since the depth of this cup is a little smaller than the Bibi Bezowa, the gore is pressing slightly more on one side.
I'm definitely packed in a little tighter in this bra, but I'm not quad boobing at all. I don't think it is small enough to go one cup up. Wire width is good, I have no cup wrinkling at the side
I wonder since this is all lace (lined at the bottom) if it is cut a little smaller for support?
The brown is not as chocolate brown as it looks on my screen. It is more of a pink toned brown and the lace is a stretch lace on the upper cup. Cute little light beige polka dotted bow at the center.
So far I've tried Ewa's S, Sm, and 2 seam half cups . None were as good as this cut for me.
I don't find the wires as firm as Cleos. I know some people find them firmer than Ewa's other styles.
I can't really comment on that comparison since I've had so little experience with her other cuts.

Wires are too heavy for me
Cups lower coverage than what I thought they would be.
Not as round an appearance as I wanted.
Different fit from the BM Tajemniczy Ozgród (probably due to the different fabrics)
Ewa BM on a smaller bust

That's such a cute bra. I'm sorry to hear it didn't work out as well for you as you had hoped.
The lace is gorgeous!! Beautiful on you despite the fit "surprises." The shorter cup would fit me better--thanks for your review!
Darn for the fit issues and wires not quite right! The bra itself is beautiful and looks great on you! Bet the next ones you ordered will be better :)
what a bummer - Naomi is my current favorite. It fits better than my other BMs, so i guess it is a little different
Gorgeous bra. Pretty cocoa on the cups and the rest is a lovely color I would describe as fawn. This bra differs from the bm magnolia in that the entire cup is not lined. The upper portion of the cups is made of what seems to be a much more durable stretch lace. The profile seems to be less pointy than the bm magnolia which for me is a good thing. The band in the Naomi is stretchier, however.

Huh, the website said the Naomi band was small? Anyways, lovely - i ordered one in 75J a few days ago, great to see one live and in person (almost!)
what was the stretched band length?
That looks lovely on you! It gives such a great shape.
This fits me technically technically fine (with the caveat that I need an extender to get one extra row of hooks). I love the fabric - the color, the feel, the little polka dot bow in the middle (and I'm kind of sick of bows!)
I feel like I'm not getting enough lift in this bra for my personal tastes. It's also giving me an ever so slightly pointy shape. I think a cup size down would be perfect. And, the straps are a little wide set (which is not a problem I run into with Ewa bras, another reason I'm thinking too big cup size).

This is my first attempt with a bigger cup size in the BM style. Based on the EM recommendation, I first bought 2 BMs in one cup size smaller than other cuts. It seemed to work in the beginning, but I soon realized the cups were actually too small and I don’t wear my BMs in 65E anymore.
This is also my first attempt with the 70 band (along with the SM Triumf). I decided to go up in the band size because most of my 65s feel really tight these days (excepting Ja wiem, Syrena and Glamour) and I’m pretty happy I did so! The band in Naomi ... (and Triumf) feels really super comfy yet supportive, I think I’ll stick with the 70 bands for my future purchases.
I was pretty sure the cups were going to fit as my 65Es show several symptoms of a too small cup – quadding and too narrow underwires. In reality, this bra has literally exceeded my expectations. Despite the cups being quite shallow, this is by far my best fitting unpadded bra. I’m literally in love in this cut and I want more! The underwires are perfect in this size, the cups are a little bit tall which is great for my soft tissue. It gives a great uplift, all my breast tissue is gathered to the centre and I even get some cleavage. I feel my boobs are very well supported and they stay put in the cups all day long. The fit is the same right after putting the bra on and at the end of a day.
The shape is surprisingly rounder than I expected, even more than in the SM which gives quite a pointy shape on me (excepting Czarna Mgielka).
The centre gore doesn’t tack perfectly but it doesn’t bother me. I think it’s due to the shallow cups.
My only complaint is about the cup height under the armpits – it runs a little bit too high and I can feel it but it’s definitely not a deal breaker.
