    55J

    Didn't fit

    I'm so disappointed. The band, brand new and all, stretches to 29 inches - a far cry from the 26 band I was expecting. I own this bra in 55H as well, and while I realise that a bigger cup can change things, this 55J is just -so- much more bra than the 55H. The cups are very wide, the gore is considerably higher, the cups are suprisingly tall and the straps are pure agony. It's bad enough to make me wonder if they got the patterns mixed up, or if it slipped through quality control - especially considering the SM Nana, bought in the same size, is ... actually a decent enough fit... Of course it's also a possibility that this bra won't work for me and my tiny frame past J-cups, so next time around, I'm going to be trying out the S shape instead.

    With some (read: alot) of alterations, I could probably make it fit - but that would require moving the straps over an inch, somehow shorten the band, and wear the bra with the pads at all times to combat the jiggle, and I just don't feel it's worth it all that hassle. At some point I would actually like to try a 55HH, or a sister size... for science! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    70G

    Didn't fit

    This bra runs very wide in the band and has very large cups.

    My other two 70G Ewa Michalaks (CHP Cappuccino and HM Gold) are much snugger and the cups are too small. In the CH Onyx, the cups are definitely big enough – almost too big, even, but only almost.

    The band is a problem. In addition to being wide, it is also very stretchy. I was able to fasten it to the innermost hooks straight away, and I will probably need to make it narrower in the near future. If I had know this, I would have ordered a 65GG.

    The straps have pros and cons. The comfort ... straps are, as they promise, comfortable! However, due to the comfort pads, they aren't adjustable all the way, and may I say they are ridiculously long. I wear them as short as possible, and still they are way too long, glide off my shoulders and don't give the little but essential support they are supposed to. Will need to shorten them.

    The normal straps are adjustable all the way, but they, on the other hand, are very short, and it is impossible to wear the bra straps as an X. To do so, I will need to buy another pair of straps, meh...

    The appearance of the bra is very nice – plain and stylish with a tiny detail that just finishes it off (the buttons on the front).

    CH Onyx gives my breasts a slightly "out there" shape, at the same time pointy and round – not bad. Still, I would maybe prefer an even rounder and closer-to-my-chest shape with this cup size, now I don't feel it's quite as supportive as it could be. Although that probably has to do with the too wide a band and the too long straps.

    All in all, this bra needs it fair amount of tweaking to fit me perfectly, but after that I believe I will be very satisfied.

    Edit (17 March 2013): I've now narrowed the band and shortened the straps. It's better, but still not perfect. The straps still don't cut in but are very comfortable, which is a BIG plus. This of course has to do with the band being firmer, but nevertheless I don't feel it's firm enough. The band rides a bit up the back and respectively glides down at the front, although definitely not as much as you'd expect with a band that is this much too big (e.g. compared to the CHP Cappuccino in 70GG, with which I had to give up).

    As also the cups are now bordering on too small (no quad-boob yet, but almost – nothing to blame EM for, probably just the last bit of breast tissue remigration), I decided to order this bra in a 65H and leave this one as an at-home-bra – it's still far from perfect, but thanks to its comfort its still a keeper. Let's hope the 65H turns out to be the true catch https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    I adore this bra, but it is just too small for me. It gives a fantastic lifted, up-front and rounded shape. It is lightly padded and has additional removable padding to correct asymmetry. The fabric is very soft and the cups are lined with cotton for comfort. The 'comfort straps' certainly live up to their name, although one downside is that they are only part adjustable. Since the straps are removable, it's also a multiway bra and you can swap for the (included) regular straps if you need to adjust them any shorter.

    The band is quite stretchy, but still true to size in my opinion. There are four hook positions so this will extend the life of the bra. The wires come up low under the arm and in the centre, so it's probably not great if you have soft breast tissue, but I love it as I often find wires dig in when they are too high.

    It's a fantastic quality bra and I wish it fit!

    Didn't fit

    This bra (CH Onyks) is absolutely stunning. Even several sizes too big (I used their online calculator, it works for some people but not for me), it provides more uplift than I would have believed possible for my soft, slightly saggy breasts. I am sending it back for a replacement in my size, and will definitely buy more from this brand. The removable padding to account for breast assymetry is a nice touch, and I like that, even when fastened on the tightest hook, the bra lays flat on a table - the cups are less than half the total width of the bra. ... My breasts are quire forward, so this is normally a problem for me.

    Don't be fooled by the 2 hooks; the band is actually four inches wide around most of the body, and only narrows to the two hooks between the back strap attachments (which are boned for support, as is the side band. Despite being quite short, and the band being too long, I did not find it too high under the arms. I am really, really impressed by this bra and look forward to getting one that fits right.

    The straps are multiway and widen with length and are padded at the top, very comfy. Band too short for me, runs short at 24" stretched. Wings have side boning. Four columns of hooks. Has cookie pockets. open on top half-cup shape. Gore is slightly overlapped. Soft cotton comfy inner cups, outer fabric is silky with slight visibly sheen. My measurements are 26" and 34" leaning so this is too small in band and cups but I tried it on anyway with an extender so I could review it.

  8. This bra is slightly too small now but 65DD CHs are slightly too big on my smaller side. So this is a bra that I'll be keeping, since it has great multiway straps and I can wear it as a strapless (though EM says not to do that).

    I would say CHs ideally fit a slightly narrow/projected even shape due to the good immediate projection and open on top cut. However I am FOB and the fit is still pretty good. The band on this bra is slightly strange. It has boning halfway through and then the bit near the clasp is more stretchy. Personally I don't like ... the appearance of the back but it doesn't change the fit for me. The bra design is a simple black color that works well under clothes that aren't too thin (some outfits the dark colour or seams do show through). I comes with 2 sets of straps, a normal black pair and a padded pair. I find the padded ones to be excessive on me but if you dislike thin straps they would be very comfortable.

    Overall this is a great simple multipurpose bra that can work for many different shapes.

    I would say the Gore is a little too wide for me, since I have really close set roots. But I can live with it. The under wires are narrower per an Ewa bra. It came with different straps and removable cookies. It is a good shape for me and depending where in the month I am, the cookies are easily removable. I wear an extender with it, since it feels a little snug. But I am still trying to dial my size in. I removed the side wing boning for comfort issues. The quality is really good, accept 1 hook was not sewn in. Which was easily fixed by hand stitching. Overall it is one of my better fitting bras.
