I love Ewas but this one is too small for me. I am between sizes and have a 65F that fits great with the cookies. This bra is beautiful but the alterations make it too small for me.

This bra has the best gore for my breasts of any I've tried yet, but it's still not quite low enough. I would be happiest with a gore around a half-inch lower (length isn't a problem, it would just have to extend below the bra, not up). The cup separation is good, but again, a smaller separation would be even better.
The band stretched since I got it (new with tags, had been tried on but no more). I needed an extender the first time, but since then it's too long. I can fit two hands comfortably inside the band to hook it, which was definitely not the case ... before.
The cups fit and feel and look amazing. I love the lace, and I love the flowershttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
The straps are wide and they feel good against my skin. I had to extend them to the longest reach, but they fit just right.
I love love love that the cups are lined in cotton. It's so much more comfortable than any other bra I've tried, even after wearing it all day in the heat and humidity.
I might need a 65G or something like that next time, though.

This bra seems to be in par with other Ewa Pl's. The band is very tight for a 30, it runs like a 28. The bottom elastic is also super tight, so even though I am V shaped and the band is too big for me, the bottom elastic feels fine on the tightest hook.
The cups on this particular model is wide, which accounts for more depth than usual in this size I believe. I've owned the 65E - Ewa Michalak ยป Pl Karmelki
(260), which I found to be similar in the band, but slightly narrower and therefore less depth but fits similarly.
Overall, this is a really nice bra. The narrow and short gore fits my close set breasts perfectly and it gives pretty good cleavage.This bra is not owned any more

I agree with PawsOff: The Malwa runs one cup size smaller than any other PL I tried so far. Just the wires are a tiny bit wider.
The band is also on the smaller side, even for an EM bra! It barely stretches to 28" in a 70 (UK 32).
That being said, the PL Malwa gives great uplift and shape, not too much coverage, and is really comfy to wear.This bra is not owned any more

I love this white bra and the cleavage that I get from it. I also love the option of having cookies so I can get that extra oomph is I do so choose.

Flowers are super not my thing. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, the rest of the bra...
Fit/feel: The band feels pretty normal for a 30, to me. The cups are super narrow, which is glorious, the straps aren't super bulky and are fully adjustable (yay!) and it doesn't run too high under the arm. I tried the bra with the removable pads in, and it was just about perfect on the big side and a little loose on the small side. When I put both of the pads on the small side, I ended up with quad boob, so I guess I'm at a point ... where 1.5 pads on the small side would be exactly right. Oh well. My major beef with this bra, comfort-wise, is that the cups are kind of angled inward in the center, so the wires at the gore tilt inward toward your chest, which is rather uncomfortable. It's not a sharp, poky pain, but there's too much pressure for my liking. If I were planning on keeping it, I'd try to bend them outwards a touch. My SM Trefl kinda felt the same way at first, too, but now that one is ultra comfy.
Appearance: I like white, but the flowers are super not my thing (especially because they're pink). The cups are thin white foam, covered with this floral lacy mesh stuff. Meh. The wings are a double layer of mesh with white polka dots on the outer layer. Also kinda meh. All that said, though, the overall appearance of the bra is quite pleasant. It looks pretty nice under a shirt - perky, rounded, uplifted. Without a shirt on, it looks a little odd, though. It's a three-part cup, but unlike the usual balconette shape where there's a vertical seam rising to meet a diagonal one where the lower, outer segment comes up to attach to the strap, there's two lower segments and a more or less horizontal one across the top to which the strap is attached. The vertical seam is I think too tall for my breasts, so the horizontal segment kinda makes the top of my boob look flat. However, this is only noticeable when I'm not wearing any clothes over it, so I don't think it really matters.

This bra is a little tight in the band, and although I'm very slim and 28 inches around the ribs, it gives me a bulge in the back. I used a band extender to fix it in a pinch. I really liked how it pushed my wide set, narrow round boobs together. It was perfect and gave great cleavage for a plunging dress. The fabric is not slightly scratchy and I took the pads out. The lace you can see through a tight knit. It isn't for form fitting tops, I didn't care for the shape it gave me in T shirts. For the plunging neckline it gets an A+. I'd order up in the band and in a more T shirt friendly fabric next time.

Although I should be wearing a 60 or 55 band size, this band was very firm, and i'd say true to size to slightly tight. So if you're a true 65, this band size should be perfect. The wires were a bit wider than I was expecting, but they fit me surprisingly well! The shape of this bra fits a shallow breast shape well in my opinion. I love everything about this bra; it is well made, comfortable, and beautiful!

Oh, that one is really nice. Too bad it's discontinued.
