Great bra. Comes with three straps: normal, thick and padded, and a long strap to make into a halter neck bra.

This is the one Ewa Michalak bra that I just don't want to let go, even though the cups are a bit too big, and the band is a bit too loose. I think it's the padded straps that have entranced me-- that, and the soft, comfortable feel of the entire bra.
Alas, it has the problem all my other Ewas have, and even just wearing it for a moment reminds me of how the weight of it is basically sitting on the top of my stomach.
I've heard that the Onyx line runs a bit big in the band, but I'm not sure where I stand on that. It's one of the looser EM bands out of my haul, but it's also not as loose as I was expecting of a 70. If I was reordering this bra, I'd go with a 65 just to be safe.This bra is not owned any more

Ewa Michalak bras are very comfortable and very flattering. I read a lot of good reviews about her bras and now that I own one I agree completely. I ordered this bra in 65 hh because I decided to order my usual uk size and not what was advised to me by effuniak calculator (75 FF). The band is very tight; I was able to put it on but the first few days I was barely breathing. The cup though is a little bit big so I think that the right size for me in this bra would have been 70 GG.
Nevertheless I find this bra very beautiful and comfortable and I am planning to order more from efuniak.

This one was a disaster on me. The cups ended up being too widely spaced for my boobs causing a bit of east to west shape and then the cups themselves didn't even fit. I thought about pulling out the asymmetry pads that came with the bra to see if that made the cups fit better, but really this one was too much of a disaster on me to really try.
The band was nice and tight. Actually, it may have been a little too tight, but just barely! The shape was good like all of Ewa's bras, but because of the small cups, I just got a lot of quadraboob. All the quadraboob occurred near the center gore.
Definitely not the size for me. I think I prefer the shape of the PLs and CHPs anyways, so I am going to stick with those and hope I can find a nice home for this one.Updated on Dec 22, 2012 Flag this

The shape this bra gives is incredible, but the size wasn't quite right for me. The band was borderline too tight, so one of the hooks pulled slightly, and the cups cut into the tops of my breasts.

Great bra from what I can tell. This bra is a bit too big in the cups for me. The band fits firm. For reference, I'm a 32G in Panache Sienna and 32G in Curvy Kate Thrill Me. I should've ordered one cup size smaller. Comes with removable padding and three sets of straps - comfort (wider), regular, and a halterneck strap.

Initially I was petrified of getting a potentially sub 28 band bra, but in this case it fits beautifully and the quality is nothing to be sniffed at. I can imagine this bra lasting a long time.
Although listed as a 60ff/28ff, I would consider this a 26 band on one from the tightest hook.
Update: It is getting awfully small, I attribute this to breast tissue migration. The band is a bit too big now (after ALLOT of wear!) and I am going into the 26 range easily (as I intended to begin with) so stay tuned for some 26 Ewa bras.

I love the feel of this bra. The fabric, lining, straps, etc... It is all very comfortable.
For me the band is perfect. The only problem is I ordered a size or two too small. I get definite quadboob. I tried removing the cookies, but that wasn't enough. I need to order one, maybe two cup sizes larger next time. As opposed to the HP style, I love the shorter wires under the arm. This style is a bit more comfortable for that reason, but I would still love a bit more coverage over the top. A larger size may help with that...
Very comfortable and well made.
I'd suggest buying your regular band size in this style (CH) and possibly one cup larger than your Freya cup size.This bra is not owned any more

I figured I was generally a 60G in Ewa Michalak bras, but read in a place or two that the Onyx ran loose in the band. It was obviously a mistake because the band almost doesn't fasten on the smallest hook and the cups are somehow also much smaller. I love the multiple, fully interchangeable strap feature (a big reason why I got this bra, although the bra MUST be worn with straps). The padding I'm a bit confused about, since I can't see someone who fits the bra properly being able to accommodate the inserts as well, but I can't test this out as it's too small to begin with. I'll probably try ordering this in my proper 60G size, or maybe even sizing up, because the 60G sometimes feels on the fence about containing everything.
