The Ewa Michalak 65F Ch Cherry looks great but is far from perfect for me. It's not just that the band, supposedly a 30 band, only stretches to 28.5" inches. An extender would fix that. Also a problem is the CH's center gore. At 2.5" it's short for a half cup bra's gore, but 1.5" is as high a gore I can comfortably wear. I've been slowly selling off my bras with gores higher than 1.75" or so. I of course knew the Ch Cherry gore would be too high for comfort when I ordered it, but...so pretty...
The colors, lace, and decorative straps are feminine and flirty. I ... get cakes on a plate cleavage, as expected from a half cup bra. The decorative straps accentuate the mounding flesh above the cups. I have no complaints about the looks. What everyone says about the notable projection of Ewa's Ch cups certainly plays out here. The more forward facing my boobs are, the thinner I look from the front. I'm glad to look thinner on top. Inverted triangle body types like mine look more balanced that way.
If I wore this with an extender, the band would be a reasonable length, and the gore wouldn't press so hard into my sternum. I'm usually too lazy to add an extender to my morning routine. I find it annoying that I have to add an extender to a 65 band, which should be equivalent to a 30 band.
The big draw of Ch Cherry, the main reason I might keep it, is the matching briefs. If I wear the Ch Cherry, I could wear the matching, high waisted panties. When I wear matching panties, I feel like I accomplished something. These panties look great, both in front and back. It's not easy to find a high waisted panty that's as flattering in the back as it is in front, at least on me. It is in fact very, very difficult to find flattering high waisted panties, and I loooove high waisted panties.
While I ordered the 65F Ch Cherry direct from Ewa Michalak, I had tried on two sister sizes at Revelation in Fit's Oakland store. The 70E (UK 32E) and 75DD (UK 34DD) both looked great. The boobs looked exactly as they're supposed to in half cups in both sizes. I much prefer the bands on either of those than on this 65 band. I should've just bought the 70E if I were determined to have this bra. But no, I had to second guess myself and order the 65F from Poland. It costs $20 to ship a bra back to Poland. By the time I figured all this out, Revelation in Fit had sold out in 70E and 75DD. They didn't have the 65F when I visited. Argh.
I don't know what I'm going to do with this bra.
