Before anyone gets too excited, I have to disclose that this bikini was released around 2011 or so (see this blog post from Le Curvy Kitten reviewing the same bikini here: http://kel-kitty.blogspot.ca/2011/10/bikini-bonanza-time-to-wind-down-for.html). I was browsing reddit one day when I saw an listing pop up for an Ewa Michalak bikini, so I HAD to click on it. It's not everyday you see an EM bikini for sale! The size was 70HH, which is smaller than what I usually wear, but I messaged the seller for measurements anyway. Luckily for me, she assured me that it ran quite a bit larger than her bras of the same ... size, and she gave me the cup depth to back up her claim. That's all I needed to decide it would be MINE. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I have been kicking myself for not ordering a bikini from Ewa Michalak when they were available last year, so this was a very exciting purchase. As a bonus, black-white-red is one of my favorite color combinations of all-time, and polka dots have always been a winner in my book.
The bra fits just as the seller described. The style of the bra is a PL, which has a low gore and 3-part padded cups. The cup depth is 13", which is larger than a 70HH padded bra from EM these days. The cup depth is actually very close to my 70JJ - Ewa Michalak » Pl Blekitna Rapsodia (658) . The gore fits nicely right below where my breasts touch, and the wires are very low on the sides. I would actually prefer the wires to be a tad higher to hold in some side boob/fat, but I can't complain much because they are comfortable (we're talking Comexim comfortable!) Also, it makes my boobs look INCREDIBLE. You know it's good when you find yourself saying, "Wow."
You will notice pieces of fabric placed near the hooks/eyes. The purpose of these is to tie them to sort of hide the bra hooks. I think it's a pretty brilliant design aspect. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
The only downfall of this bikini I've noticed is the strap material. It is SO SO SO SO stretchy! It's probably a good thing that the bikini will not get as much wear as a regular bra, otherwise I don't know how long these will last. I may look into sewing some sort of reinforcement material under the straps to keep them from stretching out so much.
I don't have the matching briefs, but I do have some solid black ones that will pair nicely. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
