What is Ewa playing at?

My new M Gorzka Czekolada arrived yesterday. It's completely lovely, and the cups fit perfectly, but good grief, the band is tight!

It's a 70DD, and the band only stretches to 29 inches. That's roughly the same as my snug underbust, and while for some that might be ideal, for me it's way too tight (I need at least an inch and a half more stretch for comfort).

I'm not really sure what to do. I love it, but I hate wearing an extender (I find them awkward and uncomfortable), but I don't think I can wear it long enough without one to let it stretch out naturally.

I know people complain about the inconsistency in Comexim sizing, but in my experience Ewa is much worse for this. It makes me seriously reluctant to buy from her again, unless it's something really special.

  • Oh, that´s just sad :(
    I hate inconsistent sizing!

    Have you btw thought about sewing an extender to the bra band? This way it´s easier, it doesn´t come off by mistake from one end when you´re fastening the other end. I´ve found this helpful. I don´t know if you have similar or other issues with extenders though.

  • I usually fasten the bra around the back of a chair and let it sit there for 2 days. Alternatively you can wash it a few times.
