Super pretty and unique, but the corset gore is not a good match for my center-heavy super soft tissue.

dbmamaz I usually wouldn't either, but the 3D/Ms and the MP work well for me, so I thought I may get lucky with this too. I may with a different PL, but the ties on this are more than I want to fiddle with.

Very cute bra! It is labeled 70A (32A) but it really fits more like a 28DD. The cups are super open and run large. On me, the cups are too small since I am a 28F in cup volume, but I plan on holding onto this in case my breasts shrink post birth-control pills.

the lace-up gore is a bit fumbly and will probably take some practice to get just right so that it both fits and looks good. it's a neat idea though and I like that it makes the cup separation customizable. I laced it as tightly as possible all the way down, which caused the band to fit more like a 30 than a 32. It still rides up on the loosest hook though, so I think if I buy any other Ewa bras, I'm going to need a 60. I can wear this on the middle hook.*
The cups either run large or are very open on top or ... both because they fit me just fine, maybe even a smidge larger than I need? It does gap if I slouch. I might have to play around with the lacing some more, and learn how to tie a pretty bow while I'm at it.
* EDIT: No I can't. It rides up on the tightest hook even with the straps loosened.
Also, surprisingly, the cups work like a push up bra despite the lack of padding. The gapping when I slouch is bothering me a lot. I'm thinking this could work a lot better for someone with a larger ribcage and bigger boobs... and nimble hands to make that lacy centre gore look good.

It's the sexiest bra that I've ever owned. It gives the round, uplifted shape that I love. My boobs have never looked perkier!

I bought this bra when I was still a 30C in other brands. At first I wasn't sure about whether to keep it or not although I've always really liked its looks. In some positions such as bent forward with arms stretched out (tying shoes position) there was some slight gapping.
However now - after some breast tissue migration - I am really happy I kept this bra, because it's one of only four of my old bras that still fits me (at least as long as I'm not pre-menstrual). As - according to Ewa's calculator - I'd need a bigger cup sizes in Ewa bras too now, ... I think this is due to the very open cut of the cups.
The bra is comfortable, gives my boobs a really great shape (pushed forward), and its band is still really tight so I usually use an extension (1 set of eyelets).
Cup separation depends on how tight or lose you tie the ribbon between the cups with this bra. I measured the tightest setting with regular lacing, but you can certainly get the cups closer together with a different lacing method and overlapping eyelets.
The only negative aspect I can think of is that the ribbon at the centre gore cuts into my flesh a little more than regular centre gores, creating a criss-cross pattern.

This bra is remarkably solid for a bra which has only lacing holding the two underwires together (see the image of one cup flipped each way to see how flexible it is). I bought it as a boudoir bra but I think it is supportive enough to wear on a regular basis - assuming you like plunge bras (I don't).
My size in most brands is 34H, so this is one size up in the band.
I have included a picture of this bra with several other bras because the laced gore is more visible (the image showing the back of the PL Czarny Kropek). (The other bras ... are Ewa Michalak CHP Kurczak, Ewa Michalak CH Purple, and Bravissimo Harbour Bright tankini.) There is another image showing it with the same other bras, which I think gives a clearer representation of the color, although the pink is a little bit washed out. It's a very light pink.
Note: I am writing this review in January, 2013, several months after the bra was purchased. I have given my initial review and fitting comments based on my notes about the fit of the bra near the time of purchase. Since the bra was purchased, my breasts have grown and the bra no longer fits properly. Below are my comments on the current state of the bra:
The band on this bra has not stretched significantly while I have owned it; I can still wear it on the loosest hook. I have only worn it about three times, though.

It's a pretty and sexy bra
https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> It's got a cute ribbon in the centre and straps are really nice. It's too small for me at the moment (I breastfeed) and like any other plunges, my breasts trying to get out. It's waiting in the drawer for me to finish nursing.
