The long awaited Cherry. Underwhelming, but I'm keeping it around as a project. Runs tall and open, meaning everyone who's not FOT could probably size down one and be okay. Narrow wires, wide set straps, typical Ewa. Awful, awful, awful shoulder straps. Truly terrible. However, it's the most projected bra in the history of ever. If you need projection, step right up - there's enough projection for everyone.

CH Cherry is a brand new bra for Ewa Michalak and the first CH cut she has relea

  Wow, that projection tho!! I would be all over this if you didn't say it ran tall, cuz Ewa half cups always gape on top for me x_x

• You could probably size down!

  Hope there are several more CHs coming with .6" straps. The projection would make my breasts sing ;-)

• Where are you located? I was able to buy return label for $8 on PayPal, which is significantly less than purchasing on USPS or at the post office.

• Noob My PayPal account won't send international any way but Priority which is $15+. It will send a bubble mailer First Class for a great rate, but even a small box is $$. How did you configure your shipment? Thanks!

  I did send it as First Class Large Letter in a small box, since Ewa requires you send padded bras back in a box. The one that was sent to me was really large since it contained 4 bras, but I just cut it down and made it as small as I could for the bra. It was about 7 oz with the bra.

• Noob I've been afraid to select Large Letter when I'm sending a small box; fearing it will arrive "postage due." Have you had any induxatiobs that USPS protested the designation? Exciting....it will help so much with international shipping!

  I've shipped this way internationally only 3-4 times, so I'm not sure if there would be problems or not in all cases. But I've never had any problems. I believe bubble mailer is also considered package though.

• 1

  I can confirm I've shipped "first class international envelope" in a package and I didn't get arrested by the mail police or anything.

• 1

  I'm in the US and I've sent stuff first class international via PayPal before too. It's cost me as little as $5 and as much as $14 depending on the location. In the end, I kept the bra more so because of the projection than the cost of return shipping.

• Sorry to hear that it’s a bit roomy. It’s a really pretty bra, but I think an Ewa anomaly? I know I saw a blog post about alterations to it so I’ll have to find it and see if you might benefit from it. Welcome to to Polish side where we have projected cups and narrow wires!

• Here’s the post, but I don’t think that it’s the answer that you need. It does, however, highlight that it is an odd fit.

  "SomethingIcan'tspell"..... oh how that made me laugh! Welcome to the realm of Goldilocks Ewa padded bras. Hopefully you will find your "just right" size (& style) quickly.

  As much as I love the extra lift and oomph her padded bras give, after spending a small fortune, I came to realize padded bras just don't work for my breasts. 😖

  Even with this one not being your Goldilocks bra, the color compliments your skin beautifully. Hopefully you will get some use out of it!

• You know I always thought this one was unpadded :)

• Sovavosi it is, the cup is just lightly lined with cookie pockets. Speaking of which, I was NOT ready for the 5-minute struggle that was trying to get the cookies into the cookie pockets. Could Ewa have designed those pockets in a way MORE difficult to use???

• 1

  Heh yeah, I gave up putting cookies in the CHPs. I'll just be more uneven 😎

• Cookies in CHP are a pain in the butt.

• I have this in a 65F which is now a bit small. Let me know if you'd be interested in a trade.

  So the CP style is an unpadded bra with cookie pockets? How unusual....

  So wouldn't that make it a multiway cup? 😄😋 Small cookies for a semi soft, or the full cup cookies for a padded..Versatile!

  MamaPagan The CH is a padded half cup. I believe that the Onyx in the CH line is actually a multi-way. It’s pretty similar to the CHP if I remember correctly. Possibly narrower and more projected than CHP. At least that’s my understanding from reading reviews and blog posts about them.

  Calluna It is so much harder to keep track of the details on the styles I haven't tried. A mutliway half cup would be awesome, wouldn't it? I was just being silly with my comment (about an unpadded cup with cookie pockets so that it could in turn be "multiway" in it's ability to be unpadded without cookies, semi soft with small cookies, or padded with full cookies as I know it wouldn't truly be called a multiway due to that ability) but I still think it would be a neat idea! Though the cookie pockets would most likely show through the cup if the cookies weren't in, wouldn't they?
  I always thought the CH was a CHP but for the smaller cup ranges, but wasn't sure. Thanks for the additional info!

  Okay! I had to look the style up on Ewa's site to refresh my memory and yes, Calluna you are correct in all regards. The only CH left is Onyks (which is a multiway with 3 sets of straps.)
  https://www.ewa-michalak.pl/eng_m_BRAS_CH-Bras-228.html

  The CH description is:
  "Padded halfcup bra, perfect for low and broad neckline. Vertical seams give your breasts rounded shape.

  The underwires at the center of the bra are higher than in our plunge (PL) bras, but lower than in our soft halfcup (HM) bras. This gives your breast very good support. In comparison to our HP style, the CH halfcup bra pushes your bust forward and upward more."

  So now we all know! (I love learning new things & refreshing my memory!)

  I can't believe Ewa is down to one bra in that style, and it is down to one size. I guess she is discontinuing it as well? Is she getting rid of all the smaller size range bras? Or maybe she will combine them with the "like styles" in the larger cup range ones, so like the CHP would cover the lower ranges as well or something? It would be very sad if she stopped offering the lower range styles, as I know many women love and need them.

  No worries MamaPagan ! Yeah it’s sad that she hasn’t really updated the CH/CHP range lately. Would love to see more of the M and other petite cuts. Wishful thinking.

• I would just like to see more festive patterns and colors that don't sell out opening weekend! 😄 Seriously though, Ewa needs to update all of her smaller range styles CH, M, 3DM, etc. We have several on here that I know have been patiently waiting with money in hand for new releases that never arrive. I get that the BM and SF are the most popular (as I do love them myself) but that shouldn't mean that the other styles get neglected. Each customer should be valued and their needs should be met.
