Success with Ewa Michalak SM bras
OK I did not expect to be reporting this, but I have had success with the SM bras in a 75K size. I have been in not-so-good health lately (nothing too serious, I know what I need to do to get back on track) but as a result I've gained a lot of wait, like I'm close to my highest weight ever besides pregnancy. Then my son has been teething a lot so he wanted to nurse all last week which generally can increase their size. And I've been spilling a little out of some of my old Bravissimo bras.
So by the time I got my EM bras, I was expecting not to fit in at all. To my surprise, it was a near perfect fit in everything. Except for the BM Aqua, which gave me the oddest fit because it forcibly made my breasts torpedo shaped. I'm not even exaggerating. It actually felt likt they were being squished and pushed forward. I have a theory this means the bra is actually too small for me because it did it more so on the breast that is bigger today and I have had a weird shape before with a bra that was just a tad too small. Also because EM is trying to make bigger BM cup sizes I wonder if they are finding odd shapes with larger sizes, even if you can technically fit in.
Anyway, for those in my size range and for dbmamaz I put up some pictures and all the measurements. The 75K - Ewa Michalak » Sm Fiolecik (642) is my absolute favorite bra in terms of looks, I'm wearing it now! But I think the 75K - Ewa Michalak » Sm Trefl (361) would be my new favorite in terms of comfort.
However if I ever go up a cup size, I'll be sized out for sure, and I'm not sure that anyone with firm boobs my size could benefit from the SM. My breasts are becoming more and more compactable, so it may be seriously affecting cup size. I'll review the actual bras themselves once I've worn them for a day each.
For reference I wear a 75L in their S style bras, so that's why I didn't think it'd work. I think they work because of how full coverage they are and how narrow their wires are.

Squee! Giving me hope! I still worry the band will be too small for me, but hey - I'm really glad these worked out for you!!
The band for the Sm Fiolecik is definitely tight so you may need an extender or to sell the bra and get the next band size up because my 75 feels like a 70 band to me. I just looked it up and the un-stretched band is about the same length of all the 70 bras I've put in database. I'm sure the bra will work out for you in every other way though.
I got my Decent Exposures order too so I was pretty happy, but I need to work out some kinks with it.
