I got really lucky and found this new with tags on Ebay! My last experience with a CHP wasn’t so great due to size. This fits pretty well and I get the cakes on a plate. The band on this feels on the stretchy side, so I may end up moving in on the clasp sooner than later. The cups consists of three vertical seams. The inside of the cup is white with the outlet fabric a light baby pink with black dots. There are thin satin lace looking detail up the front of the cups with a nice black lace edging. The straps are a black elastic with a pink detail on the front portion of the strap where it attaches to the cup. The patterned fabric continues around the back of the band and there is a black 3x4 clasp. This is super cute. The only down side is you can see the cookie holder fabric outline from the outside of the cup even if the cookies aren’t in it. *All pictures taken without the cookies.
May12, 2021: *Update: Currently this bra fits after major weight gain over the last year. I feel uplifted and supported all day. As with all my other BM’s I’ve had this past year, the look, quality, and quality keeps me coming back for more.
May 5, 2020: *Update: After washing and wearing this bra for a day, the cup is slightly too big. I get some wrinkling at the bottom of the cup. My boobs try to wiggle up to the apex of the bra, pushing the cup down a bit. It is wearable and will fit well when it’s my time of the month and my boobs ...are at their maximum size, but I feel for everyday wear, a 65G would probably be my best bet.
After purchasing several BM’s in a 70G, I picked this up to try for a better fit in size. So far I feel it fits well. The color is lovely under white shirts and I feel this shade can carry over from when I’m at my lightest to when I’m very tan at my darkest as a nude bra. This bra has lovely lace on the cup, but the backband is a nude like mesh. The straps have the scalloped thread edging and requires you to take it off to adjust. Not terrible as it won’t ever just slide out of position once you’ve set your straps. The backband is firm but comfortable. I appreciate that this doesn’t have any bows or charms. Just small buttons where the straps meets the cup as well as the center gore. I’d say this works great as an every day bra. Very pleased with the overall fit despite running slightly larger in the cup. I feel the apex of the bra sits slightly higher than the sister size 70G I’ve tried in other BM’s.

Yeah. This one is a heartbreaker. It actually fits almost exactly the same as 65GG - Ewa Michalak » Bm Kleks (861) . It's such a shame because the colour is such a good match for my skin tone https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> A perfect nude.
This one was small on me too. It’s sad, because it is so nice. I honestly don’t know what size to get with this one.
Oh wow, this one really would've worked well as a nude. Sorry that it hasn't worked.
I wonder if it's possible to stuff the cups and have them stretch a bit? Would that help?...although I don't even know the first thing about getting that to work.
Today this one feels too large in the cup! I'm so done...
Oh no :( ..maybe it will snap back into shape after washing with warm water?
Sometimes our boobs are possessed, and sometimes it's the bras. We've all been there honey. (And I swear the BMs are alive and do change on their own!) Give it another few days and it will feel too small again I'm sure.
Is it the base, or the upper lace? And I have to ask, did you do your normal swoop n scoop? That is usually the culprit for me...
I scooped and swooped same as usual, I just do it out of habit. It's the upper lace that feels loose lol. At the wire it still feels constricting. Moody bras are weird!
Indeed. :-/ Sorry this one isn't being as boob friendly today.
Lately all my older Ewa bras feel a bit too small in the cup (70FF or 65G), so I took this one a cup size up (65 GG) and it works great. The band feels good for my 71 cm under bust. It is much softer that I expected, for some reason unknown I imagined that the bottom half is more similar to a padded bra, but is is not at all. It is a soft cup bra. I also tried it in 65G and it also seemed to fit, but a bit tighter...but the shape I get with a larger cup size I very much prefer - the smaller cup made mu bust sort of point downward a little bit when looking from the profile/side. Matching thong is again very comfortable, soft and since it is all lace with no rubber band, it does not leave any marks on my sides. Aesthetically I like the set aswell. I was afraid it might be too bright, but I like it on me.
This is the 3rd size I've tried in this bra due to weight gain/body changes. Compared to my other Pralinkas this thing is a beast! The straps feel very wide and the cups give me a very strange torpedo like unnatural look. I also get quite a bit of gapping in the top of the cups. I love that the band has 4 columns with 3 rows of hooks. The nude color is perfect for me and it fits the bill for a nude basic every day bra. The center gore sits well agains my skin and doesn't bother my close set breast despite it being higher than my 65G's. Sad this didn't provide a nice round shape as my other Pralinkas do. I guess I'm more of a 65G 1/2 in Ewa bras.
I also noticed a "torpedo" like shape in S styles in 65gg/60h. I figured that's just how the S is supposed to look, and that others like it more than I do. But perhaps the shape varies with size?
I get torpedo in my S bras as well. It takes some getting used to but I sure do like the girls out of my way. Maybe try without the cookies? It looks like you would fill the cup without them. The bra does look great on you! You fit it well.
I love the color! While EM's beige bras are fine on my natural skin tone, I discovered that they are too light for my summer skin tone. The S isn't my favorite for every day wear because of how crazy huge it makes my boobs look (not my favorite look for work), but I may have to invest in this one! I wish EM made more bras in this color.
klilly3 Having had this bra in a 65FF and currently a 65G, I'm going to say it varies with size. I don't get the same effect as I do in this 65GG. It's hard to explain, but its as if the inner lower portion of the cup isn't projected enough and along in gore it gives an "east-west" separation where as the outer cup then brings the breast back in giving some cleavage. I get a nice rounded shape with my 65G and had high hopes for this, but it just doesn't work for me. Makes me feel like I've stuffed my bra with socks to get the shape lol.
roxannelovesbras Thank you. I tried this without the cookies and the cup is just too large to fill.
LadyInBlue I also love this color and wish they had more available in it. Especially if they had a SM in this color. I find most "nude" bras to be way too light and this works great even when I have a bit of a tan.
I agree with you that the inner lower quadrant of the cups is unusually flat and shallow. It creates a super high, half globe "mound" of boob above the edge of the cup but does look odd and angular from the apex down. Maybe you can wear it with tops that are low cut but very loose and flowing?
wendybien I totally agree with your description of how this bra is shaped. The pictures really don't do the oddness justice lol. I think this is just a miss for me. I've had some really good luck with Comexim as their cups fully contain my breast and provide a nice round shape. In the past I've always had awesome luck with Ewa bras. I think I've just outgrown the Ewa round-zone and just not ready to venture into torpedo-town.
It's such a headache adjusting to the changes when boobs get bigger or smaller. I hope you can find a new bra comfort zone!
I think you look terrific in this bra, sorry it didn't meet your needs. I am thinking about making my first EM purchase and hope I look half as good. : )
This bra is so fun, sassy, and very sexy! The cups are made from a very soft, smooth animal print with a touch of deep red ribbon separating the animal from a lace edging which is sewn over a nude cup, providing interest along the top of the cups. There is a matching, deep red bow in the center gore. The black straps are finished with another deep red ribbon, sewn with a zig-zag stitch to add a gathered, very feminine look to the straps. The cups come with cookie pockets and removable pads for the correction of asymmetry or for that wow factor! This is a stunningly gorgeous bra, fun to wear, charming, sexy, and very alluring. It didn't fit me, unfortunately, but I have since reordered it in the correct size. I love it and can't wait to find this one a new home!
Love everything about it, super sexy and good for summer, nice support, center gore wires overlap a tad at top of gore. fits a tadddddd too big, it gapes/wrinkles a smidget by nipples, looks ok under tight shirts. I should have double checked the bratabase measurements and sized down a cup:-/
Okay so I absolutely love this bra. The shape and uplift are amazing, as usual. Ewa is the queen of unpadded bras that actually lift you while maintaining a great shape. I don't know how she does it. It's beautiful *and* comfortable. Good quality lace.
My favorite part about this bra other than how pretty it is, is that it's literally the closest I've gotten to my skin tone, ever. Closer than any other beige bra-not the Deco, not the Comexim Basic, not even Ewa's CH Biszkopty have been that close to my skin tone. Oh, sure, they work under shirts as 'nudes,' but none of them are near ...to what my actual skin tone is. If you're curious, I have darker Mediterranean (Italian, specifically) skin. More olivey than fair/pale. All three mentioned above are quite a bit lighter than my skin tone (okay, many shades lighter). They work fine under white shirts, sure, but the Cynnamon is so much closer.
And that, my friends, is awesome. I hold out hope that some day I'll have a 'nude' bra that is really my skin tone, but I'll be waiting a while I know. The bra world has a long way to go in skin tone variations, but this is a pretty good option for those of us with olivey skin tones.
I am a fairly even and very projected breast shape. I have average-to-narrow roots with a slight omega shape. My best fitting bra is a Cleo Lily in 28GG, though I think a 30G would be more comfortable in terms of band length.
This bra is good for someone with average-narrow width, a projected shape, and some upper fullness.
I think this bra might be the death of my bank account - I like it a lot! It's a very, very tiny bit wide for me, so I'm doubly interested in other EM bras that have her normal width. This is the first EM bra I've tried. I don't ...necessarily feel like I get the cakes-on-a-plate look she's famous for, however, but then this is one of her balconette bras rather than a plunge or half-cup.
The band is nice and snug, comfortable without being tight or constricting. Do note that I tend to prefer a very snug band, however, so YMMV. I am especially pleased by the three hooks, rather than just two, in the band.
The bra has nice, stretchy lace on top - I suspect it could accommodate for slightly more wiggle-room where upper fullness is concerned than some bras. The cup fabric itself is silky and smooth to the touch - it's very comfortable and doesn't chafe even a little. The peal and bow detail in the center adds a little extra elegance to the classic design. I would also go so far as to say the pictures uploaded don't really do it justice - I was a little worried about it feeling "plain" when I purchased it from another bratabase user, but I don't feel that way at all now that it's in my possession. It has a "less is more" sort of feel to the design. Read more 193 more words
You seem to be similar to me in size and shape, I cant wait to try EM bras :) you also sound like you have the same preferences for certain features. Thanks for sharing this review
Well, I think I'm sold on Ewa Michalak and understand what all the fuss is about. The S Wiśniówka is my first EM, and I'm not disappointed, even though there are some minor fitting issues. Mostly because I believe these issues would be resolved by going down a cup size.
It's a very comfortable bra. It goes up into the armpits but not too high, and the gore doesn't come up too high or dig in. The cups appear to be a good width. The padded material on the inside of the cups is soft and not scratchy or stiff. The lace at the seams ...is soft and doesn't seem to be too obvious underneath clothing. The material of the cups is a nice change from, say, satin -- it has a more subtle effect. I also like that the band has three hooks. The straps are okay. I feel like if they were set any wider, it would be too much for my shoulders. Now, I ordered a 65GG (30GG) expecting that the band would be quite firm, but I found that not to be the case. I had to use the tightest hooks right away.
As for the shape, well. Are you ready for some uplift? Because you'll get it with this bra. Yowsers.
I experience some gapping at the top of the cups when I first wore it, especially when I wasn't sitting up straight. Strangely enough, it seemed like my slightly larger breast had more gapping issues. I scooped and swooped rather aggressively, and filled out the cups, but it seemed like as my boobs settled, then the gapping issues came up again. However, it wasn't obvious under a shirt. The second time I wore it, I seemed to fill it out more? I will definitely update this review after I sport my PMS boobs in this bra, because it may turn out to be the perfect PMS bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
[UPDATE]: It's been a few days and I've worn it a couple of more times. I have to say it's fitting better than when I first got it. Maybe the cups are molding more to the shape of my boobs or there is a breaking in period, but the gapping issue has definitely diminished. Plus, dear god is this a comfortable bra. brb ordering all the EMs lol just jk only not really D; Read more 297 more words
Hands, down, Ewa Michalak bras are the best fit that I've tried. I don't even have to swoop and scoop my breasts into the cups... From the moment I put it on, it's already perfect. The. Best. Fit.
Unfortunately, I outgrew my 65Gs and my size has been fluctuating a lot lately (up 1 to 2 cup sizes since then). When the new designs came out, I knew I had to have this, and it really is a beautiful bra. The first time I put it on, it was slightly pointy along the middle seam of the cup. One wash, though, and it settled into the usual rounded PL shape.
First off, I ordered this one because it was the smallest available band/largest available cup (I ordered the other Effuniaks in 30H). Understandably, the cup is a little too small and I have some free boob over the top. It doesn't bulge unless I breathe in deep, but boob overflows a bit when I do that. (Boobs are enclosed, but attempt to creep out the sides a bit, very slight quadraboob) The band is definitely too large on me, though. The cup issue would have been worth it to have a strapless for the first time in my life (I grew fast...) but it's really way too large, especially ...for a strapless. It will stay on the third or fourth row of hooks (it has 4) but still slips down over time, and I cannot really move around a lot or everything will descend sadly.
That said, the bra itself. It is very pretty, the cups are a harder solid foam than the other Ewa Michalaks I tried (makes sense for strapless) The foam is white with a black mesh over it. It is supportive and overall is the best strapless I have tried (I have also tried a Fantasie and a Panache - my boobs didn't even get halfway into those and terrible quadraboob. Not so with this one, despite the wrong size! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> ) It has a nice shape, not too far out to the sides, and despite not filling out the cup to the bottom (is that just a strapless thing?) my boobs are right where they ought to be. (Until the band slips. The cups are perfectly fine, though.) If it was the right size, I would love it a lot. Read more 180 more words
This is the ultimate summer bra for me. It ranks up there with my SMN Sieci and SM Czarna Mgiełka.
The cup is a three part cup. The cups are made with a airy open teal colored mesh. There is satin trim lines all the seams along the cup. The center gore is made using two layers of the same mesh and there is a cute satin bow in the same color. The side walls have a bit of the doubled up mesh with the back band being a very soft stretch fabric made using two layers. It’s super comfortable!! The back clasp is a 3x4 closure with teal hardware. The straps are a teal color with a satin finish. There are two small satin matching bows where the cup meets the strap. The hardware on the straps is white. This is a bra I wish she would make in every color. I will note that the satin edging on the cup does not stretch.
This bra is a beautiful addition to my summer bra wardrobe. The lower cups consist of three parts. The inside is a tan non stretch fabric with black lace overlay. The upper cup had an inside layer of tan stretch mesh folded over on itself with a black stretch lace overlay. The back band is two layers of black stretch mesh that is very breathable. The edge of the upper and lower band is made of stretch mesh folded over the edges. The back clasp is a 3x4 closure. The elastic straps have a matte satin finish. The straps end in black hooks that attach to black rings found at the top of the cup. There is a black satin bow with a diamond pendant hanging from it.
I originally review this bra in detail in size 65G, review found here: http://bra.pe/X29q/
I also reviewed this bra in size 70G, review found here: http://bra.pe/X2R8/
While this bra falls in line with all others in my bras in my recent order of size 65GG, I found that this bra in particular had wires that were wider than all the others. While the wire was the same length, it definitely was on the wide side. It wasn’t wide enough to be an issue and still fits, but I do find it strange that there was a discrepancy. Yet another example of hand made items having slight differences depending on who made it.
what girl?! You get the deals! This looks great on you! congrats on the bra win!
