    Didn't fit

    Wow, the level of disappointment is real. This is such a beautiful, delicate bra and it just does NOT work for me at all!

    I’m hoping someone can clarify for me—obviously this bra is too small in multiple ways, but I thought Ewa Michalak bras were supposed to be good for projected breasts, especially the BM cut? Like I said, I know this one was too small, but my boobs tried to escape out the top. There is literally hardly ANY projection immediately at the wire, it’s literally all in the apex.

    The band was so tight, *insert expletive here*. I thought my 75 Kris Line bands were bad? ... This was AWFUL. The best way to describe it is torture device, I couldn’t wait to get it off.

    The gore doesn’t tack. Probably because the cups were way too small. I had massive empty space at the bottom and plenty of quadding because my boobs were trying to find room at the top. There’s also a lot of space next to the gore where my boobs just don’t fit into the bra, I might be too splayed for such a narrow gore. Speaking of narrow, wires are narrow, and I think too narrow for my shape.

    I don’t know if it’s worth it to try going up a size (or 2?) based on how the 80J - Ewa Michalak » Bm Bibi Black (1000) fit, I’m worried I’ll still have the gaps and have bullet boobs like I had with that one.

    Starting to think Ewa Michalak BM bras are *NOT* for me. *shakes fist*

    I’m supposed to be getting an Ewa Michalak Pl Biscuit in the mail next week, and I’m nervous. I know lined/padded bras aren’t really suited for my shape, but honestly I’m having a hard time finding ANYTHING that suits my shape. It’s making me want to give up trying. 😞

      I just looked at the measurements (I measure in CM but have my Bratabase set to IN, and I don’t know how to convert CM to IN off the top of my head), and I noticed this band is 35”. I’m telling you, there’s NO WAY this actually stretches that far on my body, it was so ridiculously tight and you can see that in the back picture.

      oh no. I just got a BM Suzy last night, and I love, love, LOVE how tight the band is! I'm not going back to loose bands. Would it be worth trying this one up a band, and up 1-2 additional cups?

      addendum: I know most boutiques say, "Go up a band size" but for me, I don't go up a band size. I'm 30 UK and 65 band in Ewa MIchalak.

      I think I might have to! I did a virtual fitting with Judy at Levana Bratique and she suggested I wear 80 bands for Ewa, but I really think I need an 85. I’be noticed that I should be wearing an 80 in Kris Line and those bands are waaaay stretchier than EM, in my opinion!

    • pretty_promise , I do the same thing, I always measure in cm.

      I feel your pain. The EMs I’ve tried so far are ALL too tight in the band. I haven’t tried going up on the band yet because I’m worried the cups will be too wide. I’m using extenders for the time being. I hope you find one that works for you

      would you try 85HH maybe? That's up one in the band, and up one in the cup (I believe)

      Maybe it's just me, but the cups don't look terrible, only slightly too small?

      BraOdyssey that’s the plan, I’m going to try it in 85HH. It takes so long for returns to process though, so it’ll be a bit before I can do that since I’m not made of money LOL!

      I’m noticing bras that have very angular wires (Ewa Michalak, Nessa) don’t seem to fit my shape as well as ones with wires that curve the whole length (Kris Line). I honestly think if it doesn’t work out I’m just going to stick with Kris. 🤷‍♀️ If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right?

      Oh no! I’m sorry you’re having such a terrible time with the fit on this one. It is such a pretty bra and I was hoping the padded straps would add to the comfort.

      Let us know how going up in band and your PL work for you. I was thinking of a PL, but it being lined makes me nervous, too.
