Side support in Polish bras

After more reading, I realize I'm definitely not shallow, I'm pendulous (but not narrow-rooted, I don't think.) It took a bunch of pics of people in bras with empty space above the underwire for me to start to understand this factor in my bra fitting struggles. So I'm going to start looking at bras (unlined, 28E-F) reported to offer immediate projection. But I also just discovered the beauty of side support a la Freya Hero (though haven't found a size that fits yet, now awaiting a 28E.) When I look at pics of Polish bras, they don't generally appear to emphasize side support, via an obvious fourth or inner vertical panel of some sort. Does the narrower cup width and/or some other feature of Comexims and EMs provide this benefit more subtly/covertly? Are there some (unlined) styles particularly known for both immediate projection and this front-and-center effect?

Also, in my search of US stores that carry Polish brands, I can't actually find any offerings in my size range. Is this typical? Do most people here still go straight to the source and pay the significant international shipping and return fees? Thanks so much for the rookie help!

  • Gorsenia K200+ balconettes have the best center projection, and the immediate projection, for me, is outstanding, too. Ewa Michalak and Comexim both have a very wide lower gore that does not work for me at all. All three brands have narrow wires. No side support that I've experienced in any of the unlined bras of the aforementioned.

  • If you're willing to pay more, Wellfitting is made by Comexim. Anna Pardal For Comexim is sold by A Sohisticated Pair, and Zathiya carries Comexim and Ewa Michalak . Not sure what the shop return policies are though. Finding your Comexim size can take some trial and error, but once you do you, I am pretty sure you can ask for higher wings since almost all their bras are made to order.
