This bra is gorgeous!! I received it from Anya99, and it fits perfectly. the straps are moved as an alteration. As someone with a short torso, I appreciate the straps being able to extend all the way back so that the wire sits properly on my IMF. my boobs are OUT, as in they are so lifted up and prominent in tighter clothes, it makes me look like i got some work donehttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" /> I thought the cups were too big until I scooped and swooped. I appreciate the three row hooks and thick straps, and overall, my boobs look and feel awesome.

I bought the matching set for this, and omg, I FEEL AWESOME IN IT. I just love the design, I think this colour way is unique in lingerie brands as they tend to be plan jane vanilla (black, beige, white) or über sexy, red and lacy. It’s very refreshing to see one that is neither the above. Yet again, Comexim has the cutest collections suiting the widest range of users. Side note as this is not a bra comment but I ordered the Braziliany Sukulent in a size S and it is cutting into my butt cheeks and is overall too tight. My hips and thighs aren’t that ... voluptuous either, I believe my hip circumference to be around 35” and my waist 23” ish. So yeah if you plan on getting the matching set, which I 100% recommend as it just looks…*complete* that way, I would recommend sizing up in the bottoms. The seams are less accommodating than usual from what I’ve experienced with their briefs and thongs.

Anywho, back to the bra. This is a 3HC, which is what it originally comes in, and I think I am doomed to not fit this style as it is just too closed on top for my breast shape. I am even/FOT, I would describe my breasts as 3/5 (3 fifths of my tissue is above my nipple, 2 fifths below) so in certain positions the (absolutely gorgeous!) teal ribbon at the cup edges cut into my body rather uncomfortably. The Comexim plunges fit me much better; I find them to be more accommodating towards FOT shapes compared to the 3HCs. So, verdict #1 is that if you are FOT, I would stay away from this shape as it is quite closed on top.

Verdict #2 is closely tied in with the former, with it being another shape issue I have with this bra. The 3HC is quite shallower than its plunge counterpart. The cups for me lack immediate AND overall projection at the front of the cups, and there is empty fabric on the sides of the cups as my roots are quite narrow. So in conclusion, a shape mismatch on my part.

I think that if I could travel back in time I would request a 60L cup made using a 60K wire…the band isn’t as snug as I’d like either, and I think there is some pseudo-snugness because my breasts are pushing out the bottoms of the cups. So actually I’d order a 55M with 55L (or even K, at this point) wires.

I think for now I will keep this set anyways, I can’t bear to part with it and the issues aren’t super noticeable day to day. It’s just so beautiful, and I don’t wanna wait another month for a Comexim shipment that may or may not fit me. I can live with it! (cries)

I have been eyeing this bra for quite a while now and it finally arrived! Yay! I bought the PL, BM, and matching thong for a set. I am unfortunately a size 60G in all of her models which meant I had to pay and wait extra for Ewa to manufacture it. But the wait was worth it, and, it fits perfectly. No quad boob or gaps, the wires are the perfect width, and the plunge works great for my close set breasts and is very comfortable. This bra fits just like her other PLs, with lots of projection and lift due to their 3- part seamed cups ... and very strong underwires.

The Roz i juz is a beautiful and vibrant pink without overdoing the brightness to be like a highlighter shade. This pink lace is over a plain beige foundation with the foam, and the insides of the bra have cotton cookie pockets that my sensitive skin adores. There is one bow on the gore made of a darker pink ribbon, and two on the sides of the thong. The lace is shiny in some parts and matte in others which adds great dimension to the colour way. The lace is SUPER soft. Like, I can feel the quality even if I didn’t know the price tag. The panties are mainly made of this soft lace too and it doesn’t dig in or cause irritation unlike lace from other lingerie brands. I appreciate the range of styles Ewa has to offer- girly and pink, plain and solid-coloured, and sexier ones for all body types. Because big boobs ≠ boring beige bras.

**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.

I ordered this to be a longline instead of a regular plunge, and added the little C charm (My first initial is a C lol!) but other than that there are no other alterations. I ordered a 60L, but I do think that I might need a 55M/L with narrower wires for more projection next time. I believe this to be a sign that I have graduated from 60 to 55 comexim bands (this checks out as I now need a 60 in Ewa Michalak bras, and her bands run very tight). My snug underbust is just under 26”, and my loose underbust is 27”. This band is ... VERY stretchy! I already need to have it on the tightest hooks to provide adequate support, and even then the gore does not tack properly.

This 3HC is wayyy too shallow for my shape; the wires extend much too far past my roots, and there is slight quadding and discomfort in the centre of the cups due to it lacking projection. I also cannot get the wires into my IMF as this bra lacks the immediate projection required to do so. Therefore, my breasts push out the underwire and cradle at the bottom, the gore doesn’t tack, and the band has a tendency to ride up. I need to tighten the straps to God Himself to get proper support which is the #1 sign the band is not snug enough. Overall, I think even if the band and cup fit I would not get the best support due to the weaker wires. It’s sad because I absolutely am in love with this print, the floral embroidery is everything I need in life & I like the “held in” feeling I get from a properly fitting longline bra. Overall, I think if I could go back in time I would request MUCH stronger wires, a 55 band, and the wires for a 55K bra plus the cups for a 55M/L.

I received this gorgeous bra from Marilynne , who was very communicative and patient. It arrived with the matching panties (size 36) for the whole set at a great deal, and in excellent condition.

This is my first SMN bra from Ewa as I figure out my size from her place. I really like this bra, it’s very sexy but also cute, with the quasi-tuxedo-strappy (idk what to call it) theme. The SMN is similar in fit to the SF, S, and BM cuts- a balconette shape with a higher gore and longer wires. I found this to fit me great at a 65FF, albeit ... the band a little too loose (grrrr…ewa, cmon man). I did not need to size down in cups in EM unpadded cuts such as this, and my true EM size is a 60G/GG depending on my cycle.

Both the bra and panties are see-through, hence the lack of pictures of me actually wearing the set. The translucence is from a beige, stabilized mesh/tulle material that comprises most of the bra. This stuff isn’t irritating to the skin, yet still TOUGH! I wouldn’t doubt it’s structural integrity holding up heavier breasts than mine. This is also the same material Ewa uses for her models with “peek a boo” gores with a translucent mesh window (such as my sf Motyl and PL Antonina)

On the center gore there are three black buttons and a red bow, and strappy motifs where the seams would otherwise go. These black stripes are made of a satin-esque material and are very soft, much like the material Ewa uses for her SF bras. Be warned tho: these lines are very, very visible under clothing, as even when wearing a hoodie you can sorta see the outline of the design. It doesn’t bother me, but it’s a matter of personal preference and something one should note before purchasing. The decorative straps near the cleavage area are non-removable just like the ones on the panties.

For the panties, the three buttons and bright red bow are also there, along with the non-removable, sexy strappy elements at the waist. Again the buttons are noticeable under thinner materials and it does look weird to have three small bumps on your crotch lol. These straps don’t add to the support of the bra nor diminish it, and are made of the same material the straps in the Cappucckinka and Bibi models.

For the sizing I’d say the band runs true to size in accordance with this brand, it is a very tight “30” band- although I would not advise anyone wearing a UK 30 to purchase their regular size. This is more of a 28 than a 30. For the panties, however, they are much smaller than my other 36 briefs, and therefore fit perfectly as Ewa Michalak panties are usually a little too small for my 34” hips. I also wanted to note that although the rest of the panties were made of that soft tulle material, the lining at the crotch is made of cotton. Give your bits some breathing space and natural fibres, thank you very much!

Overall, I adore this set so much- it brings me much joy to have cute matching lingerie sets that are gonna last a long time. Ewa’s high quality and workmanship cannot compare.

Basically: this set is see-through but the material is stronger than you think. keep in mind the satin ribbon reinforced seams at the cups will most likely be visible under clothing. I did not have to change sizes between padded and unpadded cuts but that is just my body. Size up 1 size in band (e.g if you wear a 32 band (70 EU), try a 75 band.

This bra is a gorgeous, almost neon pink colour, and I absolutely adore it. This bra has the alteration of stronger wires and the straps moved in, however, they are a bit too moved inwards, compromising the depth and projection of the bra, so the cup fits very small and is not projected enough for me. I will try to re-adjust the straps outwards in my own time, I think 2cm should work great. The stronger wires create a much firmer band which I prefer to Comexim’s regular bands/wires. Plus the gore is more closer to tacking with said stronger wires which also improves the level of support. ... Overall, this bra is absolutely beautiful and my favourite colour. The fit is not horrible, the cups are just a bit shallow for me but with a few alterations at home I am sure I can fix it. I do wish, however, that Comexim would make more bras in pink and with girly lace and jewels! I love this colour, and I love pink, but this is an older and discontinued model that I cannot purchase the matching underwear for.

Motyl=butterfly- thanks to my current obsession with Ewa Michalak, I am learning a few Polish words lol! I absolutely love butterflies, I have plenty of butterfly jewelry and tops etc. They are a huge part of my personal style, so obviously I had to grab one of these as soon as I saved the money. And I’m so happy I did!

SF is Ewa’s take on a non-padded bra that gives the same shape and support of a padded one. I appreciate the engineering and thought she puts into her designs, both in the bra engineering and fashion design aspects. The bottom of the cup features 3-part seamed ... construction and a stiff fabric that supports itself, and the top part is made of stretch lace. I was worried that due to the nature of the bottom half of the cup it would lack the immediate projection I require, but the extra seams do the job very well at accommodating my projection. However, I still feel a marked difference between this SF model and my BM ones. My breasts are relatively smaller so the immediate projection aspect is not a huge deal for me as they are simply less heavy than, say, someone wearing an 80G compared to my 60G. Overall though, this seems to be quite sturdy and I have no worries of the structural integrity of the bottom cup. It is very tough!

However even though the bra feels very much durable, it is made of a soft knit fabric and delicate lace. The floral patterned fabric is very pretty and goes well with the vibe of the bra as a whole. It is very soft, and reminds me of Lululemon Nulux fabric. There is a tougher polyester-like lining on the stiffened bottom of the cup that I actually don’t mind. Usually I prefer cotton lined bras as artificial fibres are irritating but I have yet to complain about that.

The bright pink lace is the exact same one they use on the Roz i Juz line- it is very soft and has varying textures and hues that add depth and dimension to a seemingly simple lace. This lace is stretchy and on both the top of the cups and the waistband on the matching thong.

The butterflies are probably the sole reason I purchased this set, they are beautiful and made of fabric which I was honestly not expecting but was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting them to be made of plastic or something lol. These are perched on the straps of the bra and the gore, and decorate the front and back of the matching thong. The split straps are just below the butterfly decorations, and are not stretchy at all, but very tough- again, tougher than it looks.

There is a small peek-a-boo mesh gore detail under the bow and butterflies there, which is not stretchy and the same mesh/tulle they use to make most of the SMN models. I appreciate the resourcefulness of this brand, using fabrics from other models to complete a look!

With all Comexim 3HCs, this runs shallower than their plunge cuts. Even with the request of narrower wires than what is usually used for a 60L, which resulted in more projected, deeper cups, I still had trouble filling out the bottom of the cups without constant adjustment. The band was very stretchy, due to the soft wires, which makes me want to consider getting a 55 band in the future….or perhaps requesting stronger wires? if anyone has details about comexim alterations, please replyhttps://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I also think the shape that the 3Hc gives compared to the plunge is less “gathered” towards the centre, which ... makes my torso look disproportionately wide compared to the rest of my body. This is especially apparent when wearing clothes. Although I got a very rounded and beautiful shape from this bra, it did widen my silhouette quite a bit.

Also, because this was requested to have cookie pockets, I had first hand experience as to the differences Comexim does their cookie pockets. For the 3HC, it extends through the entire bottom to top of the cup, making asymmetry correction easier while using less padding from the cookies (this happens with my EM bras lol) For the plunges the pockets only extend about 2/3 up the cup so the way one can correct asymmetry or add extra shape differs depending on personal needs.

Holy cleavage town!!! And i LOVE LOVE LOVE this colour so much!!! The material is similar to what is on the Basic Plunge- it is slightly iridescent and stretchy, reminiscent of athletic wear. The entire model seems to be based on the Basic, with only the colour being different- there are bows on the gore and the straps, the colour extends to the band and straps, and it is a plunge as well. I usually wear a 60L in Comexim but this also fit great as I requested for deeper cups just to try other sizes as the 60L is *slightly* too big at the apex. This is ... a newer model compared to the second-hand ones I buy off of Bratabase and it seems as if there is little to no difference between the fit of the Charlotta 60K (2023) and the Mariposa 60L (2012…IIRC) Even the wires are the same width. Perhaps they sent me a 60L by mistake?? I might just not be as observant lol.

I forgot to request for the straps to be moved in and they are too wide on my body…sigh…maybe next time.

Aaaanyways, I am not 100% as to how much the bra band should stretch to fit my body. It fits fine, but when putting it on, I barely have to pull the sides to clasp it. Should I try a 55 band? I’m kinda between band sizes at the moment lol. I just see other pictures of bras seeming to fit other ladies (and other genders, i shouldn’t assume) a lot tighter, and wonder if mine should fit that way too. The band doesn’t leave marks or anything. I’m completely fine with the fit as of now, it’s super comfortable and I have no complaints. I guess I will have to try them myself!
