This bra is the first is my order direct from EM. I was terrified that it wouldn't fit since my SM Rozmarzona 65G fits so perfectly.
But...it FITS pretty much perfectly. Tack is awesome. Band is TTS. The lace at the top of the cup is just just just barely closed enough. I suspect it will "ruffle" if I lose 1/2 a pound. Christmas is coming...won't be an issue this month LOL
It's also a half cup bra for sure - perfect for wearing under low scoop neck tops, but unlike other half cups I've tried, the way Ewa's straps are attached, they provide a little extra coverage at the side, which I really appreciate.
The lace is gorgeous and I love it!!
I'll measure it later - I wanted to post the pics because I know that some girls have been wanting to see.

I tried the sekret at one point too a while back, but it gave me a weird shape. Do you find it rough/stiff? I found the fabric a little still when I tried it.
@Wilderness it's scratchier than BM lace, for sure. But not unlike the lace in my Ellesmere bralette...which got softer after I washed it in Eucalan. I find non-stretch lace scratchier before washing but after it's perfect.
AprilGoulding good to know! thanks
Adds back to wish list...
That lace is gorgeous, so glad you got a great fit!
This bra fits just like my other HM (HM Fiolecik). It is my holy grail shape. Super narrow center gore (with wires that overlap at the top!), absolutely tons of room for center fullness and bottom fullness. Narrow, projected, very forward and very uplifted. Love!!
The fabric of this bra is not my most favorite. For some reason, the two toned flowers do not really appeal to me. I do love the hot pink bows with tiny black dots though. But honestly, this bra is a workhorse for me. I don't really mind if the looks arent my 100% favorite. I wear it more than my Fiolecik because I'm not as concerned about hoarding it. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I wear it just about anywhere, because the shape it gives me under fitted clothing is absolutely unparalleled.

This is very beautiful on you!!!
Love4Pollinators thank you!
Can't wait to get mine in the mail soon! Looks nice on you! I like the pink bow too!
This bra has been on my radar for I don’t know how long, but I was always nervous about what size I needed. AGBras had it listed and included it for me to try along with the Gorsenia Simena with option to return or buy. I will spoil this review by saying that I’m buying it. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />
This is one of the unpadded half cups and is made from non-stretch lace. I know that some people have found the lace to be stiff and/or itchy, but I don’t feel that at all! It’s soft and light to me. It’s a ... little bit of an unusual lace pattern. The upper portion is a flower pattern and it is a lot more open and sheer than the lower portion, however is is all the same piece of lace - no horizontal seams to divide the two lace textures. There’s one vertical seam in the center of the bra, and a triangular piece of mesh at the the apex. At the center gore is a hot pink satin bow with black polka dots. The center gore and band are both black mesh and at the strap connector on each side is a small black satin bow.
The fit of this bra is actually really good on me. It’s lightweight and gives me a great shape. It’s got a few flaws that can be slightly overlooked - the forest instead of the trees. You know?
The first is the center gore - I find that it is a little bit too wide for me at the bottom and is a little bit too splayed for me. This *is* my unsupported shape, but usually in a bra it’s less pronounced and I’m closer set. In my natural shape, I am a bit east west, so in this bra, I’m not quite as forward facing as I would like to be. I do also wish the gore was not quite so tall. But it’s the nature of this cut and it’s not terribly bothersome. The second is the classic wide straps. I mean, I am kinda used to them by now but I wish they were closer together by like a cm or two.
The band is quite comfortable on the loosest hooks and I expect a long life before it gets too loose - I’ll probably change before I wear it out. Lol. The lift of the bra, especially the immediate projection is just fantastic. No wrinkles at the wire; no shifting snowbird wires. Wires are an acceptable width for my narrow-ish boobs - little bit narrower would be better for me. And as I said before, it’s a very light lace, so the cups, bra, lift, etc make this a very comfortable lightweight bra. One thing that I really appreciate about this bra is that it is a short cup. As someone who has soft tissue that’s even-ish and taller but shallow roots, I become functionally short rooted and slightly more full on bottom. Most half cups give me a fabulous shape, but I find that the top of the cups gap because they’re too tall. This one is perfectly low and does not have that problem even though it’s a quite open edge (which is probably because of the height). Yay!!!
All in all, this is a sexy AF bra that’s comfortable for daily wear or a special date night. It seems to mostly suit my pudding boobs.

Yay for a bra win! Looks great on you. Glad you found a black bra you like.
It looks gorgeous on you!
Yes, it’s a great lightweight and comfortable black bra. Probably a little bit fancy for work under scrubs, but it can be my little secret. ;)
Thanks everyone...
This bra looks awesome on you! Great fit!!
Thanks braluv !

It looks beautiful on you. I'm glad you're feeling better from the depression, solidarity <3
rubypig thank you ^-^ <3
My new Ewa came so fast! It shipped on September 13th and just came today, the 21st! I hadn't even started hoping each day that today was the day - just wasn't on my radar! They did have this one in stock already, so there wasn't the extra delay as it was made (part of why I got the 65D and not the 65DD..)
The cups are so nice and short as I hoped they would be! It's perfect for all my lowest cut scoop necks (and my short short roots!) I do have a bit of in-cup quadding on one side from the small dart that goes ... from the gore in towards the apex but it's not too noticeable.. I worry that in a 65DD the cups and gore could be too tall, particularly since it's so open at the top and my breasts are pretty short. The gore on the 65D is already a bit taller than I would prefer. It might be fine though! It's real tempting to order a second to see https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />
I am happy with it though! Will have to add measurements/fit/review as soon as I can get to it (grumble grumble it wants me to enter new measurements since it's been too long.. I should do this for my own good I know..)

Wonderful surprise :-) :-)
Looking forward to your measurements. I had this in 65DD, and the depth was 9 inches, I wanted to size down, but I wasn't sure if it would be too small (since a 9 inch depth would correctly be on a 65F)
Unfortunately, the band on this is incredibly stretchy and it's too large on me.
On top of that, at this size it comes with two hooks?! I was very surprised by this. Even at 65GG this model has two hooks, which is just incredibly stupid.
It's a beautiful bra though.
The cups have a single vertical seam but the shape and lift is really something else. I love love love the shape.

That does look great on you, do you have a Rixie clip? Might help...
Not the double hook one, no :( I think I might reorder in 65H as it's super small on my larger side (something that is once again hard to see in the photos).
Beautiful bra tho.
This is a major disappointment for me after wearing so many other EM bras. The wires are extremely wide, they are almost at my back. It feels like wearing a UK bra again. My guess is they aren't stabilized in the band, and they are getting pulled backwards when I put the bra on. Because the wires don't push me forward, the bra is too tall even with how short it is, and I get gaping at the top. It can't cope with my shallow roots at all. While it can't be seen under a shirt, it doesn't feel supportive and the wires are poking me in the ribs. The band is also very stretchy, measuring at 29", comfortable on the second tightest hooks to start.

Such a bummer. :-( Sorry it didn't work for you.
Ouch. These short boobs are difficult to fit! Like you, this was too tall for me. And, my aching ribs were very displeased.
None of the other reviews mentioned how wide the wires are as far as I remember. It's the same height as my CHP but the CHP I can fill to the top. Seems to be all a wire problem. Flat the wires are 6.1" wide.
My shape: Projected, narrow, shorter roots, even/functionally full on bottom, soft tissue. Cleo Lily fits me best.
The cups are too short/small for me, so I'd say this runs at least a half cup small, if not a full cup size.
I was a little surprised/disappointed that this only has a two hook band (I think all of my other EM's have been three hooks), but it's not a dealbreaker.

I normally wear 55F in Ewa Michalak CHP, but decided to go with 55E in this cut, since I am FOB with very, very short roots. That turned out to be exactly the right choice.
This is a stunning bra. The lace is gorgeous and I'm not sure I'd call it "sheer" so much as "openwork." Since I sized down, it's pretty low coverage on me, with the top edge of the cups going straight across just above the nipples. I definitely couldn't have gone with my usual size because it's very open on top and there would have been a lot of gapping in 55F. In 55E, though, ... it's a perfect fit. The low coverage combined with my short rooted, low set breasts gives a really interesting effect that I like a lot.
Fit wise, the cups are narrow and actually have more projection than one might have expected from a two seam halfcup. The band is true to size, fitting pretty much the same as CHP Myszka. Because of the lace used, it's not the most supportive bra in the world, but still suitable for lounging around the house, or a day at the office if you're like me and wear an extra tank top layer under all your shirts, haha.
