I caved and got an Ewa because it was on sale and possibly my size. It was too small, but I'm unsure whether it's one or two cup sizes too small. Gore floats a little and there is some quad boob going on. Otherwise it's pretty comfortable and I will probably get a replacement once I know what size to get.

A lot of girls with omega roots do prefer SF over BM. Try sf 100HH & J along with sister sizes.
Not my current size.

The cups have a stretchiness at the top cup line that just doesn't fit right.

It almost was a perfect fit. Almost. The top of the cups have JUST too much material and I do not fill it right. Too bad, because it is a very pretty bra

This is indeed very pretty. I, myself, would keep it and tack down the lace with a few stitches because it does look lovely on you.
I have nothing good to say about this bra. It's a 30E, but the cups fit like a DD at best, and the top part of the cup is too big but too small??? The band is HUGE. I had it on the 3rd set of hooks and it was too big.

I'm learning to hate the "slide sling" in bra's...they make soft tissue look so strange. I think I'm not "full" enough in tissue to fill this out.

I bought Wacoal in a 32 band when I was a 30 band, after finding their bands run small. I went for a 32C (32:3), as my true size according to the ABraThatFits Reddit calculator was 30D-DD (30:4, 30:5). That calculator, as well as this one, now places me at a 32DD-E ... class="mentioned-item">(32:5, 32:6). This was / is my every day bra, however the cup shape is shallow. I recently learned I am actually projected (90° lean test) - horizontal perimeter is about 7.75" but I appear pretty flat and Full on Bottom when standing. My breast relative to my nipple is technically VERY slightly Full on Top. So pretty much "even" from top to bottom of the breast. It's important to know the shape of your roots (both vertically and horizontally), which you can find out through the lean test. I believe myself to have tall, narrow roots, with some distance in the middle (maybe a bit more than average?). My BREASTS are wide though, when unsupported. I've been buying wide shallow bras when I should probably be buying narrow projected bras. It fits mostly okay, the first time I scoop & swoop I have some quadding on the bigger side (left). That boob is maybe half a cup size bigger than the right? But as time passes, it turns into gapping at the top. Not so bad you can see nipple when leaning, which was a problem that plagued me in my teen years (buying 32A-34B T-shirt bras). The cup of this bra is a bit open on top for me, I think. My breasts are also short from top to bottom, I prefer a cup height of 5" - 5.6" so that my breasts aren't fully enclosed, but I also believe a taller cup will lead to strap gap and regular gapping. I think my breasts are kind of pushing the bra away and also spreading out inside them, leading the underwire to sit on breast tissue. My breasts have extremely soft tissue so they kind of go into whatever shape they're pushed into, which is why I thought this one fit. (Edited -previously measured horizontal perimeter as 9", but I'm more between 7.5" - 8". Could have had some swelling that day, or misinterpreted the measuring directions. It may be helpful to measure during different points in your cycle to see if you'll need a different size for water retention / swelling, and also measure several times for accuracy.)

Bra feels comfy but the straps pull my soft tissue too much on the sides giving me a weird shape. The difference in fabric thickness at the bottom vs the top gives me a quad boob effect. It would have fit better if the fabric was double lined all throughout. The fabric curled slightly at the very top. Not a good fit for me.

After I had my implants redone I tried so many different bras in what felt like a million sizes. At this time, according to ABTF calculator I should be getting UK 34H, but nothing really worked even though I tried some in other sizes/styles.
That being said, I lost about 45 lbs in the last 6 months and had to start ... the process over.
I hadn't found anything that felt right and had just about given up when I decided to try Ewa Michalak. FINALLY some bras that aren't uncomfortable for me. The wires are narrow and not in my armpit, and they carry push up bras for larger sizes. I feel like it's nearly impossible to find push up/padded bras in larger sizes, for some reason the companies think we all want our breasts to feel like they are in completely separate pockets and minimized. I didn't pay money to have 700cc implants to feel like a C cup lol
At this time, ABTF calculator recommends that I get UK 30HH according to my measurements, but when I had tried a gently used EM in 70H it felt too large, which besides it being stretched from wear, I think it being too loose around made it hard to tell if it would actually fit right. I do wonder if maybe I should go up to a 65H rather than a 65GG in the styles that I recently purchased, however they work and are very comfortable so I'm not worried about it right now. I wish that there was someone local that carried EM bras so that I could just try on some to see, but the store that I purchased them from does have an exchange option.

Hi! What country are you located in? Ewa Michalak has a map on her website of stores that sell the brand.
also, we have some lists on r/Polishbras
Also, just FYI the ABrathatFits calculator isn't any better than other online calculators that *don't* use + 4 (and there are a lot of them! for example, this calculator https://sophisticatednotion.com/bra-size-calculator/)
the "six measurements" is just a sales and marketing gimmick in order to plug their sponsored brands (which are the cheaply constructed & overpriced brands: Freya, Elomi, Panache, and Bravissimo. I find each of these brands horrible to wear personally!! https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/comments/sqaxxo/after_almost_250_bras_my_unicorn_at_last_36gg/ )
often times, the ABTF's calculator just causes more harm than good, like this woman who tried on 250 bras following the ABTF calculator.

Try 95HH and 100HH (95HH may feel better with an extender since you're omega) or 105H since you're breastfeeding. You can use 2 extenders if you prefer 95 cups. I wouldn't worry too much about a perfect fit until you're done breastfeeding as your breasts are still changing. Just get something comfortable and somewhat fits. For me, I like bras that are a bit too small because in my experience ewa Michalak stretches far too quickly and the cups become looser so I just use an extender to make the cups fit until it breaks in.
