After I had my implants redone I tried so many different bras in what felt like a million sizes. At this time, according to ABTF calculator I should be getting UK 34H, but nothing really worked even though I tried some in other sizes/styles.
That being said, I lost about 45 lbs in the last 6 months and had to start the process over.
I hadn't found anything that felt right and had just about given up when I decided to try Ewa Michalak. FINALLY some bras that aren't uncomfortable for me. The wires are narrow and not in my armpit, and they carry push up bras for larger sizes. I feel like it's nearly impossible to find push up/padded bras in larger sizes, for some reason the companies think we all want our breasts to feel like they are in completely separate pockets and minimized. I didn't pay money to have 700cc implants to feel like a C cup lol
At this time, ABTF calculator recommends that I get UK 30HH according to my measurements, but when I had tried a gently used EM in 70H it felt too large, which besides it being stretched from wear, I think it being too loose around made it hard to tell if it would actually fit right. I do wonder if maybe I should go up to a 65H rather than a 65GG in the styles that I recently purchased, however they work and are very comfortable so I'm not worried about it right now. I wish that there was someone local that carried EM bras so that I could just try on some to see, but the store that I purchased them from does have an exchange option.

Hi! What country are you located in? Ewa Michalak has a map on her website of stores that sell the brand.
also, we have some lists on r/Polishbras
Also, just FYI the ABrathatFits calculator isn't any better than other online calculators that *don't* use + 4 (and there are a lot of them! for example, this calculator https://sophisticatednotion.com/bra-size-calculator/)
the "six measurements" is just a sales and marketing gimmick in order to plug their sponsored brands (which are the cheaply constructed & overpriced brands: Freya, Elomi, Panache, and Bravissimo. I find each of these brands horrible to wear personally!! https://www.reddit.com/r/ABraThatFits/comments/sqaxxo/after_almost_250_bras_my_unicorn_at_last_36gg/ )
often times, the ABTF's calculator just causes more harm than good, like this woman who tried on 250 bras following the ABTF calculator.
