    Didn't fit

    I absolutely LOVE this bra. I had seen it on Levana but they were out of any sizes that could have possibly fit me. When I saw that Sheena had it for sale, I was so excited and I had to try it. I had just ordered another SF a few days before and was feeling pretty sure that 65H was going to be my size. Well the first SF arrived a couple of days before this one so I already knew this one was not going to work. I was actually a little surprised at the fit. The ... Iris would be perfect for me if the wires weren’t so tall. I fill it out. The band is comfy although I felt like I could move it in from the loosest set of hooks. The gore is a little wide but I could have dealt with it!! BUT the wire poking into my armpit...I can’t do. I wish I could just cut the wire so it doesn’t go up so far lol. I want to wear this bra! 😞

    So I guess I’m going to try a 65GG next per Judy’s advice (from Levana). She didn’t have a lot in stock in my size but did her recommendation on what she had. I feel like a crazy lady! Searching and searching and trying bra after bra and yet still I’m wearing my lounge bras with the bands so big and the cups too small.

    Any suggestions or advice?

      I don’t have any suggestions without seeing a 65GG for comparison, but I love the deep purple colour of this bra!

      Besides the wire digging into your armpit, the fit looks very good :)

      Aww, too bad about the wires. :( It looks good on you though! Hope the 65GG is better!

    • 2

      That is SO pretty. Hopefully the 65GG is better for you, but I will say that I have two SFs and they both fit a little bit different. I think I may just be de-sensitized to high wires given that I'm 5'1 with a short torso and all wires are high on me, but I do feel like the wires on my 65H - Ewa Michalak » Sf Moonlight Lace are shorter than the wires on my 65H - Ewa Michalak » Sf Zenith (1410) . Maybe the Iris is one of the higher-wired SFs?

      Rozelyna I just love this color, it’s even more gorgeous in person.

      Sheena Thank you! I wish I could put a shorter wire in it lol

      bustyand I also have a short torso and I’m 5’3 🥴. I had my eye on the moonlight lace! Maybe it is one with higher wires. I have the SF Gladzioch (black) and the wires bother me on that one too, they are almost identical in length. Have you found any bras with wires that don’t bother you? Oh the joys of having a short torso lol

      damaries Wires usually don't bother me, actually (hence my comment on being de-sensitized, lol). I'd say the feeling I have with basically all of my bras is more like 'if I could choose I'd make these wires shorter, but I'm not actively being bothered by it.' I will say though that the Panache Olivia's wires were high enough to actively hurt me my first few wears, though--somehow, it's stopped doing that.

      Rozelyna oh my gosh I just realized what I said lol 😅 you did say that. My darn adhd brain just skips over things lol. Well I sure wish I could get there and not be bothered by high wires 😕

      I tried wearing it again and I really dislike that feeling. Maybe I’ll become used to it

      Have you considered removing the wires, shortening them, reinserting them into the wire channel, and sewing a stitch so they can't migrate back up under your arms? I think I used wire cutters to shorten wires in a half-cup style. I sanded the ends with a Dremel tool, but you could use a manual file.

      learningaboutbras Omg I would do this! I was wishing I could just cut the wire but I really didn’t think it was possible to do that without ruining my bra.

    Hasn't set fit

    Got this through the Bratabase listings, could not resist the beautiful purple color!
    Thank you damaries (:

    My normal Ewa M. size is ~70GG but I was willing to try this 65H with an extender, as in the U.S. it doesn't happen too often that you find an affordable Ewa Michalak (good as new) close to your size, and in such a gorgeous style!

    To my surprise, when it arrived it actually pretty much fits as-is..?
    May still add an extender for comfort (I don't normally wear my bands super tight) but it's not far off. Does kinda make sense, as I normally switch to the second ... or third hooks on my 70 Ewa M. bands after a couple months (and tightest hook after a year or so).

    Construction-wise, somehow this almost seems like a 'hybrid' between an SF and a BM to me?
    It has similarities to both my 70GG - Ewa Michalak » Sf Zenith (1410) and my 70G - Ewa Michalak » Bm La Gloria (1173), in a good way.
    Where Zenith feels quite tall and the gore bothers me after a couple hours, this Iris should technically be a sister size with similar volume, but it definitely fits me smaller and is more scaled down overall. And while Iris' gore doesn't measure any lower than Zenith's, visually it seems to 'dip' a little more in the front, reminding me more of my BM. Also the firmer fabric of the bottom cup, that SF is specifically known for, feels softer for Iris than for Zenith?

    Anyhow, not sure if this makes any sense and I'm not an expert at all, only having tried 1 SF and 1 BM before this Iris - but for some reason this bra's construction seems to share characteristics of both!

    Appearance-wise I really like the color, it's a deep purple with more red than blue. It's hard to capture in photos but very striking in real life. The upper lace is cute and the purple fabric has some floral print as well, giving it some depth. There's a cute embossed pattern on the straps too and overall the design and finishing is just well-done.

    As for fit, I wouldn't switch to 65 bands when ordering directly, but overall this works okay! If we're being super picky there is some squish / smallness on my larger breast, due to asymmetry. This causes the stretchy upper cup portion to slightly flatten / push into my upper fullness, to the point where even my husband -(who unintentionally/vicariously became a bit of an expert on bra fitting, haha)- commented that it looked a bit strained.

    Nothing major though and I'm very pleased with this purple gem!

      I love this bra! I have it in 55HH and it also has a looser band. It may just be the model.

    • 2

      It looks great on you!! I’m so glad it’s working for you. I also agree with your thoughts on it feeling like a hybrid! I also felt like that.

    • 2

      pretty! This totally looks like it fits!

    • 3

      marilynne ah makes sense then, might just be the fabric or something! Feels like a 67.5 band to me haha.

      damaries very happy I could adopt it from you, it found a good home! And that's so interesting that you had the same hybrid vibes (:

      BraOdyssey thanks, yes I lucked out!

      aww i have this bra in an FB style and its SOO pretty! But my FB band is so tight its one that I'll never be able to wear without an extender. Its one i'll really miss if I lose weight - i'm actually working on losing weight, becuase I was starting to not tack in my FBs and i realy didnt want to go up any bigger.
