This is the other bra from the package I waited 7 long weeks for. As much as I was hoping it would work, I just dont think it is right. The S might just be a complete style mismatch for me. So unfortunate since the S seems to be one of their major styles of focus! There are so few PLs available and that seems to be my only EM option.
I absolutely love the design of S Kamea. Its sort of got a sophisticated sexy vibe! It reminds me of a sexy pencil skirt and a blazer with a little pop of lace and color underneath. Don't ask me why I envision an outfit when I look at a bra, I don't get it either haha. But to me that is what I see when I look at this https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I am completely in love with the gore charm too! It gives it a vintage/antique-y vibe. I wish I was better with words https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
The good was once again the cleavage! Incredible, up out there and in your face cleavage. But that might have been the only positive for this one https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I had the same band issue as the other bra from this purchase. I paid extra to custom order 65HHs but the bands stretch to 32"! It is way too loose for me and I have to go straight to the second and third hooks. Like I mentioned in my other review, I don't get why I even paid for the custom size then! It was definitely on the small side in the cups as well. Even with the cookies out my boobs were flowing out the top quite a bit. It also gave me a really torpedo-y boob shape! It looked absolutely awful under a tshirt. The cups would probably mold to me a little better after a few wears but it just has too many fails. The tag next to the cup on this one says XXL and again I am just assuming its related to the wires? But I much preferred the XL of my PL Blekitna Rapsodia over this XXL. These wires were too wide and definitely too tall (height was a problem on the PL too though). Also like the PL, the wing area was too high and rubbing in my armpit too. But that is something normal for me it seems. I just prefer Comexim for being willing to help me with that problem. With EM, you get what ya get. The gore is too high for me also. That is one of the biggest reasons S and I will never get along. I am very close set and my poor boobies were like battling against it the whole time I wore it.
So the bad certainly is outweighing the good. EM is not the best choice for me, although the PL is somewhat manageable. Sadly this means my absolute favorite, S Nostalgia, will never be mine! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> And S Kamea will need a new home https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
I am so glad I waited 2 months for this lol https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

ETA: Before I shipped her out to her new home, I noticed the wire tag on the Kamea actually says XXXL!

This bra is not owned any more

  Im starting to think we really need to give them feedback about their band size problems.

• Have you tried the SM cuts yet? I know we have similar breasts. I am Babyfox on JBI. And they work for me

• Look what happened last time dbmamaz though...

• last time what? I dont know what you are referring to?

• Strapgate. The last time anyone brought up any issues with Ewa Michalak's merchandise.

• I dont know about it. Do you have a link or something?

  actually I googled it. I dont really see the comparison. I'm not saying that things fit wrong, I'm saying that I bought 2 or 3 bands in whatever-band-size and they arent the same band size at all.

  apparently this whole deal was more about people trying to get her to help them figure out whey their bras werent fitting right, and she wasnt helpful.

  I dont want any help, I just think they should be aware of the inconsistency of the band lengths. They apparently are somewhat aware, as some of the bras are marked as having a firmer band, so you should order up a size, but they havent gotten that disclaimer on all the bras they should have it on.

  This is a simple measurement, not a fit issue

• I havent tried the SM yet! Do you wear the same size as in other styles? I want to try again but it worries me. And if i do, i know i need to send them an email about the band lengths of these. I was really hoping to avoid that confrontation lol. I had originally tried a 70HH (PL Wrzos) and it was huge on me band, cup, and strap. Their response was that it wasn't what the calculator requested, of course it doesn't fit (i was asking for advice on what size to order next based on photos). Technically i did do what the calculator said though not on purpose lol. Calculator said 70GG i added 2 cups for projection and "firm body" lol. So i requested 65HH for these orders and they tried to talk me out of it. Said the straps and band issue would be fixed once the cup was my proper size and that if i ordered 65HH id have strap width problems. But if these 65HH are small in the cup, 70HH should fit me right?! But i was swimming in it! Honestly i feel like they just made them like 70s anyways just to spite me lol. But i know thats being a little ridiculous to assume ;)

• I have the SM Cynamon in a 65HH. Which is a great fit and I normally a 28J. The 65 band is actually tight fits closer to a 28band. So
  I would order a 65HH/J depending :)

• I do get some quadboobing as the day goes on.

• I actually used their calculator, but (as advised elsewhere) I breathed out and sucked in and pulled tight for the tight measurement - much tighter than my usual tight measurement. It put me in a 70HH, and I wrote asking advice before ordering, and they suggested I get my 70HH - Ewa Michalak » Bm Bibi Beżowa Perła (533) in 70HH and the 70J - Ewa Michalak » Sm Fiolecik (642) in 70J. the cups both are pretty good - the Perla is slightly small and the Fiolecik is slightly large - but the perla band is great and the fiolecik band requires an extender.

  I'm not in a hurry to buy another EM, but I would probably try a padded one if I did.

• So i ended up emailing them about the bands. I just politely asked what a 65 should stretch to. I said that both bras i received stretched to 32" which i thought was more like a 70 and that i had ordered these specifically because the 70s were HUGE on me. I didnt even mention all the things i wanted to and that i had to special order these yet still got more like a 70.

  The response: Some bands are stretchier than others (like the PL Blekitna Rapsodia). You can always email us first to find out how a band behaves. And then she told me where i could sew the bra to make it smaller if its really too big on me.

  Are you serious? I PAID EXTRA for THEM to sew the bra! Not for me to have to do it. And this wasnt just the Rapsodia. The S Kamea was EXACTLY the same. I could have just ordered a 70H then! SO MAD!

• Yeah, customer service is definitely NOT their strong point. Its frustrating since its hard to get such small bands and they arent making it any easier on you.
