SF Motyl is a softcup reissue of Opium. The fabric is the same, I never had the Opium but I believe some of the lace trim used on the brief bottom is also the same.
The fabric is soft and silky and stretchy. It feels like swimwear jersey and I like it. It's very light on my body.
I wasn't a super fan of the pattern on my screen - there's a yellow-ish green color in the pattern that is a huge turn off for me and I nearly didn't buy the set because of that, but I really like the lace topped SFs and decided to just get ... it anyway and see what I thought in person.
I'm glad I did, because I really like it! My set doesn't have too much of that color I disliked, and what is there blends in well enough that it doesn't bother me. The rest of the set overall is just really fun, flirty, and summery. It's very cute. I love the hot pink lace, the peek-a-boo gore she's been favoring lately, and the butterfly additions are a nice departure from bows and a throwback to old Ewa collections, and yes, they are fabric.
This SF fits me similar to my other lace topped SFs, that is very much like a BM. I get a nice rounded profile and the wires stay high enough for me to be mostly comfortable. I got this in a 70 band as the SF's gore sits too high on my sternum and right on a knot that likes to make its presence known. The band is pretty stretchy so I'm on the second hook while still taking advantage of the extra space of the larger band.
I have pretty wide spread costochondritis across my rib cage and it's the worst at my sternum, the gore on the SFs and BMs are really bad for me because they hit at that area and the wires are harder than they are in an SM. Going up a band size in this cut helps a lot and makes it so that I can actually wear the bra that fits me best without putting me in pain. I'm not sure I've mentioned this before, but that's why I'll mark 29" BM/SFs as too tight, but not 29" SMs.
Anyway, this bra has split straps. Ewa has done these before and I have removed them on every Gazeta I have had (4) because they chafed and I felt like support suffered for their presence. These are much better. The ribbon is softer and they don't bother me at all. They're very cute so I'm happy to be able to leave these loops intact. They're easy to remove, but I like the look a lot.
This SF does not have mesh under the stretch lace upper panel. Both my Babeczki and Owocki do and I expected this to as well. It's a bit odd that it lacks the mesh, but it honestly doesn't seem to have any impact on the fit of the cup and it fits and looks the same as my others.
I've washed this a few times and the lace is holding up well, sometimes Ewa's lace will pill up right away, sometimes it lasts forever. I'm not sure yet if this is the latter type, but it's not the former!
The butterflies at the gore and at the back of both bottoms sit on hot pink bows. It's an adorable look but the bows bleed when washed and those butterflies are now stained. I don't really mind, but I did want to note that. One could probably temporarily remove the butterflies for the first few washes until the excess dye is discharged and then reattach them to prevent the transfer of color.
The bottoms are cute and also stretchy. I got the briefs in 38 for my butt and the thong in a 36. Both fit well, but this specific cut of briefs isn't my favorite. It's way too full coverage for me. I wish it were skimpier or had a full lace back, but it is soft and smooth on my behind so at least they're comfortable.
