Ewa Michalak Help?!

So, I received the 42J PL Burgund that Bra Nightmares sent me; I put it on and all sorts of crazy things were going on. (1) the center gore did not sit flush at all. There was enough room for 2-3 fingers between the wires and my body, (2) I could immediately tighten all the way in on the hooks, (3) the cups did not feel secure and I was still quite jiggly. Also, still some armpit "fat" I guess.

I know a handful of people suggested that I size up in the cups from my 40Js that I got in the Stalowka and the Karmelki. But, as the 42J should - technically - be the same cup size as a 40JJ, I don't know that the next cup size up would work (and it could be possible that EM bras aren't perfect for my shape). I actually really love the fit of my 40Js, and they make my boobs look AWESOME.

So here's the comparison measurements.

Stalowka: cup width - 9", cup depth - 15.4", wire length - 15", stretched band - 39"

Burgund: cup width - 9.3", cup depth 15.5", wire length - 14.5", stretched band - 41"

Could it really be the difference in the cup width that is causing the problem???

I want to order the PL Ametyst, and I was thinking of ordering it in either the 40J or the 40JJ, but I'm just not sure.

  • Thanks JJ; I had run the comparison as well to see where the differences were, and I really just don't get it!
