Nov 04, 2012 - Ewa Michalak PL
I'm looking for a little insight into sizing Ewa Michalak's PL style bras. I love my 70G CH Toffik and Lato, I wear a 70GG CH Onyks with its inserts to fill out the cups, and also adore my 70G HM Gold. The first time I ordered from EM, I got a variety of sizes and styles to see what worked, including a 65HH PL Malachit and a 70G PL Onyks. The PLs didn't fit and, unfortunately, I only recorded the band measurements before returning them, otherwise I'd be posting my plea in the "Fitting help" section.
The PL Malachit was far too small in the band, but overwhelmingly large in the cups, even with two inserts apiece. My pictures are here: http://www.bratabase.com/bra/dhkwp/
The PL Onyks was too small in the band and cups, although I could've managed the band with an extender. See here how the cups overflowed: http://www.bratabase.com/bra/dhkwn/
I'm surprised the 70G PL was such a failure given how well it fits me in the CH/HM styles. My breasts are fuller on the bottom, about a fingerwidth apart, and of medium firmness. Over the course of a day, they tend to spill into the center of most plunges I've tried, but I'm hoping that is more to do with sizing issues than style. I'm determined to find my size in the PL style, or the new S plunge that's being released soon, but I'm not sure if I should try a 70GG or 70H or...?
Do any of you ladies have experience sizing from CH/HM to PL? Is it common to have to size up in the cup once or twice? And should I hold out for the S style that's supposed to prevent center spillage? Thank you for your help, I greatly appreciate it!

I would suggest a 70GG in the PL. I need to size up in Pl compared to CH with about a cup size, though I would say that they are about half a cup size difference between the two bras. I do however not have much depth, which means that I can "size down" in CH compared to PL.
Ewa Michalak bras has a tendency to look huge when they are just a cup size too big, as the swoop-and-scoop and all the adjustments just doesn't work and they keep their shape. A 70GG would be right between the two PL bra you've tried so I would also because of this think it would be your best bet.
That's a really good point, it makes sense the cups would seem huge because the swooping and scooping doesn't hold. Thank you!
