      Wow that looks great on you! What a gorgeous style. I love the option to do either with the cookies.

    • Thanks I was so nervous that it wouldn't fit even with the cookies. But so glad it did!

    **EDIT** thank you Loxus for telling me about bra band tension. I previously wrote about slight gapping and gore digging in, but that issue has now been resolved so I am omitting it in this review. If you experience an uncomfortable gore, gapping, and a band riding up in the back, check out this blog post: http://widecurves.com/its-your-bra-band-tension/


    I am so glad I ordered a 65 band, phew these are tight compared to my Freya bras! for reference, my snug underbust measurement is 27.6 inches. this fits like a deeper, more projected, higher quality and prettier Freya Deco. I’d even venture to say the Ewa ... Michalak 30 bands are tighter than Freya 28 bands :0 I have learned through this bra that I am quite projected, with narrow roots, and upper+inner fullness. I cannot use the cookies as my breasts push the cups outward and create an artificially tight band.

    This bra has perfectly narrow wires for my shape which is amazing, they don’t dig into breast tissue or extend to my back like a lot of other UK/US brands. I will say, however, that the material isnt especially soft or comfortable, the lace is a bit scratchy but that is just personal preference and something I got used to very quickly. The lace at the tops of the cups are not sewn into the bra- you can flip it as it is only attached at one end, I am not sure of the purpose for this but I wasn’t a fan as it could move and show as weird wrinkles through tight and thin tops. The material on the straps isnt very comfy either, it seems stiff and uncomfortable. hoping this will go away with wear and wash.

    The nude and lace design is beautiful, and I love the detailing with the straps and the complimentary, removable decoration ones for a more sexy look. The bows at the tops are also very cute. I wish the straps could be shorter tho, the extra strap hooks on the sides can be an issue for those who need shorter straps. The jewel detailing at the gore is also very subtle and beautiful, i appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail with Ewa Michalak. I will definitely be trying more of her bras in different styles and will be keeping this lovely bra.

    Didn't fit

    I really like this bra and I’m sad that it didn’t fit. ☹️ (The pictures are without cookies.)

    I haven’t ever really tried the lined EM bras before, so I wanted to try this plunge out as my first! I really like the fit, it was comfortable except for the major quadding and the band was a tad snug, it’s technically 2cm shorter than my loose bust measurement so it’s technically not the right size, but I heard the band ran large in this model and chose to size down. I think I could probably go to an 85 band for this after all.

    I looove the design, the ... black lace over the tan color is really cute. I love the rounded shape I get! And like I said, it was soooo comfortable to wear.

    I’ve been reluctant to try molded cups because of my needs for projection, and I’ve always been told that molded cups aren’t for girls with projection like me. This bra actually seems like it’s reasonably okay for projection. I tried it on without the cookies, and I honestly probably wouldn’t need them because of how full the bra makes my boobs look on its own. 😅

    I definitely want to try this in another size, but I don’t know which size to try next, so I’ll be posting a fit check/recommendations post soon.

    This bra is GORGEOUS. It's seriously the sexiest looking bra I own. I love it! This is my first EM PL bra. I'd only tried S cuts before. I'm surprised at how well a bra with such a low gore fits me! (Granted I did size up in the cup for this one). I think that if I went with my normal size - a 75F - the cups would not have been tall enough for me (I have very high nipples). However, since I size up a cup (to a 75FF) I can only wear it with the pads in it. I am ok with this ... though since I'd been wanting an EM bra where I could put the pads in - kind of like a push up bra (but not as extreme!). When I try it on without the pads there is a slight bit of gapping - esp on my smaller side.

    The straps fit perfectly! I was so worried that they would be too wide or not adjust small enough since they are only partially adjustable (I have fairly small shoulders). The detail on the straps might also be my favorite part of the bra - they are so pretty!

    The only real con about this bra is that because I sized up one cup the wires are a bit too wide for me. They don't bother me most of the time, but I can feel the wire dig under my armpit every now and then on my right side. It's not awful though so I'm still going to keep the bra.

      I'm glad this worked out pretty well for you! I love how low the gores are on the PL styles.

      Yes! They're super low but still supportive! I've never found that before! :)

      I have this bra coming in a CHP style. I can't wait to try it on. You're lucky you have high nipples. I almost never fill the apex with my super low ones!

      girl333 High ones are a pain too - they always want to pop out! So annoying lol. :)

      And I haven't tried the CHP style. I love the look of it though!

    I got this in a swap from another user. This fits just like my other PL cuts. I don't know why but I really love bras with the black/tan combination. I have a CHP Cappuccino that is too small and loved the aesthetic of it, but after trying CH and CHP in multiple sizes I think its just not the right cut for me even though Comexim 3HC works. With EM I think the PL is my best fit, and possibly S but I've only tried one and it was a cup too big.

      I'm wearing mine now too, put it on to take photos since I hadn't yet and I had been wearing my EM HP which I decided to list so I left this one on. Definitely is super comfy.

  6. This is pretty good! Overall, I'll say perfect fit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> I am very satisfied with the shape it gives me, and I feel very secure and supported. As I've done before, I took both the pads it came with, and put in my smaller side, and that is just about the perfect amount to make my boobs identical https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
    The bra itself is so, so pretty https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> I am glad I got it in the cappuccino version, because it looks very low-cut and sexy under a not-so-opaque shirt, because it looks ... like the cappuccino color is my skin, so only the lace is covering me. It is super smooth an luxerious-feeling. So I really love this bra already https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
    The straps would be difficult to make fully adjustable. I have not tried forcing the decoration through, though it may well be possible, but since I don't need it, I don't want to potentially damage anything.
    The band is less firm than some other Ewa bras I've tried, and I prefer it to be stretchy! The straps however are non-stretchy, and I think you can see on my pic why I prefer them more elastic: They can be adjusted nice and comfortable, but the firm-ness means they don't move with me, so if I lift my shoulder (to take a picture, for example) they dig in.

    If we are to go into detail, fit wise:

    There are slight signs that it is not completely compatible with my shape (which I knew from owning disastrous 34JJ's)
    -I would definitely NOT have it even a bit narrower! In fact, I'd prefer it to be maybe up to ½" wider at the bottom of my breast, where the root is widest.
    -It could never be even a hair more shallow at the bottom: A common problem for me, and what made the JJ's unwearable. I do get just the slightest orange-in-glass in this, but it's the least I've had in a padded bra, ever, so it's good! But, if it was more, I'd risk it folding in the empty space, which is what can literally ruin a good bra. I still have to watch this, make sure to dry it when stretched out etc.
    -The center-gore is flat, but not very insistingly :b There is no visible space between me and the gore, but I don't feel it touching me, so it could be 'flatter', but it's good as it is.
    ^These are things that could make you think I could size up. But:
    -I could not have more space at the top. There is ever so slight gaping - when standing straight, I can see a glimpse of the inside of the bra. If I roll my shoulders forward just a tiny bit, I can see a lot. So, good as it is, but not bigger.
    -There appears to be a quite small arm-hole. This is often the case of a too big cup with tightened straps (which may be true), but I can't size down due to reasons already listed.
    -It appears to be more full coverage: Larger sizes often tend to be made to be more full coverage, and when added that most of my volume is in the bottom of the cup, there simply isn't all that much to stick up of the cup.
    Also, this is comfortable on the inner-most hook from new, it could even be tighter and still comfortable, so I think next time I'll get 32KK instead. I think this may also fix some problems, because it will 'hold on' to what I scoop in: When I scoop, it isn't too narrow, and it isn't slightly gaping, but because it is a bit loose, the scooped slides out a little bit.

    ^All these are details, even though it turned out quite long :b It really is a great bra for me!

    I love how comfy the band is! Also, the underwires are a little thinner than I am used to which adds to the comfort of this bra. I could have gone up a cup size I think to accommodate my larger breast on my left side. Otherwise, the bra is well made, gorgeous and I will wear it but next time I will go up a cup size and use the cookie (appreciate these!) on my smaller size. Customer service at Ewa Michalak was most helpful. They converted my size for me and I'm sure if they saw me in person they'd have upped the cup size due to the asymmetry of my breasts. Overall, very pleased. Will buy again!

    Good quality fabric and construction. The band is a bit tighter than Cacique bras in similar sizes, so maybe go up in band size or get an extender if you're used to lower-end bras. The three hook band was a surprise - I'm used to more hooks and a taller band in my size. Nice decorative touches. Wires are fairly narrow and short, which is good for me - no armpit poking. Not quite my size but I think I'm one size away in cup and band from achieving that famous Ewa Michalak lift.

    This bra is gorgeous. Seriously. It's prettier than many of the A-D cup bras at Bras n Things and other such places. I actually think it's the sexiest bra I've ever owned. Unfortunately, even though the fit FEELS great when I first put it on, the underwire pokes up into my armpits and makes them chafe, which makes this beautiful bra absolutely unwearable.

    So I went back to wearing this bra. Of every brand and model I've tried so far, Ewa Michalaks plunges are still the best fit. At first the bra gaped more on me than it does now, although I still have to get some support from the straps, and not only the band. The gore dug in painfully when I first got it and for the couple of times I wore it after that. Even bending away the underwires didn't help that much: after a day of wearing I had scratches at the fold of my breasts, of which one even left a scar. Today I am wearing ... it again for the first time in a while, but the gore doesn't hurt me so much anymore. Maybe because I fill out the cups better now. I hope there is a way of altering so that I can get almost all support from the band. EM bras are quite sturdy and have strong underwires. I never had this problem before I started bra fitting in my true size, but the straps are a bit too short and therefore too tight for my taste. Of course, I kind of need that now for support, but they do dig into my shoulders.

    Oh, by the way, I altered this band to a 60. I ordered it in size 65 so that it could be returned if it was no good.

    EDIT: replacing the original thick, sturdy underwires with thinner ones of the same shape and length entirely solved the problem of the poking center gore. No more scars for me, thank you https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
