Help! So confused in order to find my size I ordered a few but there is so much difference in the same band size. On top 85j below 85hh...

  Can you explain what mean by that? How did this specific bra fit you?

• Did you buy an 85J or an 85HH?
  If you got both, most educational would be measure and see the exact differences.

  So sorry I added pictures for comparison but they are rejected. I ordered both the HH and J in same bandsize. The 85HH measures 73cm and 85J 70cm so that doesn't make sense to me; I always thought bigger cups equals bigger circumference so go bandsize down if you go cupsize up?

  They should be the same band measurement BUT since Ewa is handmade there are boing to be some discrepancies
  How did the cup itself fit? Which did you like better?

  I ordered 4 bra's the Scarlet and the Gwiezdny Pył, which are exactly the same cuts (I also ordered the matching briefs in 44 and 46) in both 85HH and 85J because I wanted to make sure to get the correct size and I needed to make an return shipment anyway :) Both the red and the black set have the same sizing; HH is wider in band then J....so confusing....this isn't normal right?

• Cupsize in J is way better for me; it almost tacks :)

• Unfortunately it is pretty normal :( if you look at bratabase for exact same size the measurements can very and it honestly goes right back to being handmade I was telling Jaimie and braobsessed.com she needs to request the same seamstress for all orders so the variances aren't as crazy lol
  But I honestly think even the same seamstress wouldn't be perfect each time I know I'm not when I'm seeing lol

• Interesting! But comparing the black with the red 85HH exact match and same goes for both the 85Js so that was very consitent....

• their bands are very inconsistent, it is very frustrating.

  I'm assuming that this 70 vs 73 is unstretched? Have you tried measuring stretched out? Might be more similar
  It's possible the elastic was sewn on at slightly different tensions
  Being optimistic lol

  My first EM order I ordered a 70HH BM and a 70J SM. The SM's band was significantly shorter, both stretched and unstretched

  I figured it out, I already measured it for the database :) The fabric is completely the same with and between all 4 bras but the wires in HH are wider (and lower) then the Js this makes up for the difference in band length overall! Now the question will if a JJ will fit even better...
