The bra itself is really pretty. I'm not huge on the butterflies , so I wouldn't be sad if they "fell off" during a wash or whatnot haha. The band is too big for me.. I think I'm borderlining a 70 band as of now, or maybe it just measures big for a 75? I'm not entirely sure.

I had very noticeable "orange in a glass" going on when I first tried this on the loosest hooks. Using the tightest hooks seems to have fixed it considerably. Possibly another indicator that the tighter band would work better.

I'm not sure how I feel about the cutout straps, as I haven't worn it for an extended period of time, but it's a little annoying right now, so hopefully that will fix itself with time.

Debating on just returning this for a 70H sister size, but I've heard sister sizing isn't always the same with Ewa 😬😫

This bra is not owned any more

• Oh, this one is gorgeous too! Is the band loose enough that you feel pain or strain from excessive weight on the straps?

• Oh, how i love this bra. But the butterflies would be lost in my wash too :P

  I'm also not certain I would like this kind of split strap. The ones on my Kinga bra have wider, flatter splits. These look more like round cords. Hmmmm

  AprilGoulding yeah I've had a number of split strap bras over the years (or more like decades hahah) and if it's not mini flat straps, it's typically 2 "tubular" shape cords or strands, sometimes even stretchy. I've never had split straps that hurt, despite being super sensitive in the shoulder area, but I feel it tends to affects stability a bit.

• wendybien If I wear the bra on the loosest hooks, yes. The band rides up and I feel like all the weight is suddenly in my shoulders hanging on for dear life with those tiny straps 😂

• AprilGoulding the straps are exactly what you think.. they're just really soft, rounded cords. If I have the straps adjusted as much as I need, they're borderline biting my collarbone bones, which I don't particularly like. I have a really bad slouching problem (that I'm working on currently) that often negatively impacts my bra fits, so I've also got to factor that in when I get a new bra :/

  DerangedDragons19 hmm, in that case between the questionable straps and the band being so very large (and aren't you in a weight loss process? It could soon be too loose even on tightest hooks) I really would consider exchanging... I don't know what your options are with EM, would they let you exchange for a different bra altogether...? If not maybe the 70GG might even work? Having those stupid cords sawing into you all day sounds like it would just make you tense up and make it that much harder to address any posture issues.

  wendybien I decided to take your advice and just return it. It doesn't make sense keeping a bra that's too big in the first place. I think the cups are actually just too big--same with my SF Garden. I can't return that one now since I've worn it a couple times, but at least I won't be stuck with ANOTHER bra that doesn't fit me haha. :)

• I think that's a smart choice DerangedDragons19 . In my old age I've learned to be more ruthless about returning things--previously, for real I would agonize every time. You may be right about cup volume, it's a bit hard to tell from pics but you could be at that stage where either size is wearable if all the other fit factors are perfect--just not with this bra, since in this case there were several other things making the fit less secure.
