So, rather than put my new bra reviews as adventures like always, I figured I would just write one adventure and highlight everything instead. So in February I placed my first Ewa Michalak order after receiving my income tax refund. I ordered the S Colette, the S Granatowa, the PL Zlote Ono, and the CHP Klaudyna (I'm sure I spelled some of those wrong so please forgive me). All in 70GG, I figured I would order a size up in any that I needed to, but I wanted to start with my baseline size rather than guessing at which cuts I'd need to size up in the cup for.
They were all too small. My guess is with the proper narrow wires (since none of the comexim bras I've bought secondhand have been the right size anyway), I have some extra tissue that normally would settle back into the wider wires that's now being put into it's proper area, the cup. Even though they're all too small, they're still my best fitting bras so I am keeping them until I can afford to reorder in a larger size, since I can't afford to send them back and be back to my few ill fitting bras.
Things I'd like to highlight: The PL Zlote Ono and Granatowa have some lovely detailing where, if you're like me, you won't see on the stock photos. The gold stitching on the Zlote is by far my favorite. I actually want to email them and see if I can get the Zlote made in CHP, though I know sometimes this is asking a lot and they will not do it. But regardless, it'd be such a pretty half cup since my boobs are very center full and soft so I tend to fall out of plunges after a few hours of wear. The Klaudyna and the Colette have the softest material on the outside of my lot, very touchable. The Klaudyna also gives my favorite shape out of the lot, even though it has a very stretchy band (so I know I'll need to size down in the band up twice in the cup).
I had to email Kaska and ask for my order from the spring collection be changed to 70H instead of 70GG. I am getting 2S cuts and 2CHP cuts. I ended up having to pay 40PLN more, due to the fact that the CHP cups have 70H as a custom size, but I'm alright with that considering how much I'm in love with the shape. Regardless, that was taken care of within a day, which was nice considering that sometimes over email, it can take awhile to get something settled, especially considering the fact that we're dealing with different time zones. Now I want to place yet another order, I'm so addicted to these gorgeous polish bras!
Next order though is going to be through Zathiya since she has the new Annika from Comexim! So I figure I'll get that and the S Syrena bra so that I can have my free shipping and some ideal fitting bras in a week rather than a month and a half.
All in all, great bras from Ewa, just so sad that they don't fit right. Here's hoping my round of spring bras turn out perfect!

  • wow, thats a lot of bras! I have been hemming and hawing about buying another 2 or 3 (1-2 EMs and a Jasmine) . . . maybe now that the layoffs are over and hubby still has a job, i'll finally spend the xmas money from my mom I was holding on to.

  • @dbmamaz I'm grateful your husband has escaped the cuts. Stressful.
