Polish bra sizing help

I'm planning on ordering a few bras from the Polish brand Kostar. There's only one bra in the system. So I don't expect anyone to know their sizing, but I just need to know (in general) what would my polish size be.
The only two measurements I can provide in CMs is underbust 69cm, and bust 88cm.
From looking at Ewa's size chart I'd be a 70D, but that would be a UK 32D. My preferred sizes are either 28E or 30DD.
I tried 60E in Melissa Dessous and they were ridiculously small (in band and cup)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I think your EU size would be 65e or 65f maybe I found most EU sized brands run a little bit tighter than UK sizes. The cups also runs a little bit smaller since EU sizing change size every 2cm and UK change every 2.54 cm (i.e 1").

    EU sizing does not use double letters so 65e corresponds to 30dd roughly

    I've never tried kostar so don't know about their sizing

  • Keep in mind that brands that use "EU" sizing are also not in agreement among them, Comexim uses 2cm step for their cups, Avocado uses 4cm and I believe that Ewa Michalak uses 1inch step. The key here would be to find what does Kostar uses.

    Something that could be tried is to look at how that one bra compares to another the same size on another brand, on this case compared both 34:7 on Kostar Gisele Soft (164) and Cleo Meg Balconnet (6751) (since you recently reported that one to fit you):

    This shows (inconclusively due the small sample) that Kostar will run a bit smaller in the cup and a tad wider. If you are needing a 30:5 then the size difference would be smaller than 1cm with your Meg so maybe just ordering the same size would work.
