BUTTONS! The detail on this is BUTTONS and I love it! Not too feminine for me, nice and narrow, lifts!
This review is for the Ewa Michalak SF Czarny Gładzioch in 70G EU (32G UK), color Black. My ABTF size is 34FF/32G UK.
Band: * Very tight. This fits like a 30. Has 3 hooks by 4 columns.
Wires: * Very narrow at 5.5 inches wide in the 70G.
Cups: * 4 part cup, with 2 vertical seams. The bottom is standard knitwear. The top is elastic tulle.
Straps: * The straps are fully adjustable and have a nice embroidery pattern on them in black on black.
Fabric: * The fabric is very comfortable, ...no chafing at all.
Hardware: * The hardware is matching black and it has button details.
About me: very close set (breasts touch), very narrow roots, very projected at the wire, full on bottom, short roots, soft tissue, significant rib flares, narrow shoulders.
FIT
* The band is VERY small. I had to wear an extender. I think this 70 fits like a 30 (the stretched length is 31). * The wires are wonderfully narrow at this size. * The gore tacks hard for me due to being the wrong band size for me. I can wear it but it's never going to let me forget it's there. (SOLVED by wearing 2 extenders.) The wires are as narrow as could be at .75 inches. I really need to overlap the wires but I can't bear to wreck the button detail! * The cups are GREAT for my short roots, full on bottom. I do have some wrinkling at the wire, but I can't blame it on projection since this is a Ewa. I do have "flatt-ish" roots so I think the wire is just too much of a capital U shape for me. I need to look into swapping the wires for an Emerald Erin in Carmen if I can get the right height. * The straps are plenty long enough and fully adjustable. * The sides are a comfortable height for me.
OVERALL IMPRESSION * I'm counting this as a win! I'll try to get it in a 75FF or 80F/80FF for an even better fit, but with extenders this is a keeper for me. And my first 'bra that fits.'
P.S. I totally lied on the "set a fit" because I need to show this as "it fits." The truth is the issues are: band too small, gore too wide, can't fill bottom of cups. Read more 298 more words
Great review! FYI, on the fit screen you can check off all the issues you had with the bra and then go on to 'personal assessment' and click that none of the issues you described are a problem for you to mark the bra as fitting.
Congrats on finding a bra that fits! It looks really good And thanks for the review, I’m pondering the sf bras and have a similar shape as you so good to know how it worked for you. Ps. Does anyone know if all EW bands tight? The BM I got in 75 fits like a 32
margesimpson great question, I want to know too! I just learned Ewa doesn't do custom alterations so I have to decide what size to try next.
This looks great on you, I’m so glad it worked out and has a home now where it’ll actually be worn! Great review too, and the buttons are adorable. I wish more bras used buttons like this instead of bows. I found the band to run a bit snug too but I thought it was because the cups were way too narrow for me or I’d have mentioned that aspect, sorry about that! Once it’s broken in a bit you might find it loosens up though. I’ve found that clasping the band around a pillow for a day or so helps when a band feels too snug initially but the next size up feels too loose if you’re between band sizes or a particular brand happens to run small.
I think it depends on the model whether Ewa bands run smaller or not though, I have a 70GG Szykus too and it felt more true to size than the Gladzioch when I could fit into it but that might be because it’s a cup size larger than the Gladzioch too. I still have it somewhere so I’ll have to measure the band and compare it to one of my Freyas in the same size to see since I know Freya bands usually run on the larger side.
margesimpson Introvert I've heard in the past about EM bras being inconsistent about band sizing, but I'm unsure if that was something that was more of a problem several years ago and isn't anymore or not. In my experience, yes, EMs run smaller in the band than UK bras. It's great if you're in between sizes or on the small side of a certain band, but if you're more of a true X band or on the larger side of that band size, yes, a lot of people do size up.
I'm just going to have to keep at the trial and error. I think it's too much to ask for manufacturers to be consistent with each other and maybe with themselves. LOL!
KittenParadeForever thanks for the tip,!totally going to try the pillow stretch thing. (I also have an extender in case that doesn’t help)
YOU GUYS I'VE FINALLY DONE IT! I'VE GOTTEN THE PERFECT BIKINI!
This is what I've dreamed of for over a year now. I can't believe it finally happened!
So before I get all gushy, I wanted to put the measurements of the high waist bottoms I ordered since there's no option to input measurements for panties or bottoms here. I ordered a size 42, and these are taken laying flat: Waist: 13.6 inches Widest part (at hips-ish): 17 inches Top to bottom: 13.3 inches
So the bottoms are way cute, but they don't cover my whole booty! I was disappointed by that; they are sort of high-cut in the back, which I'm not a ...fan of. I like my whole booty to be covered. I emailed my local seamstress, and she said she could add a ruffle along the bottom edge, so I think I'm going to do that, just because it makes me feel more comfortable to have that extra bit of coverage. (It sorta felt like I was walking around with a wedgie when I tried them on. The ruffle won't eliminate that, I realize, but at least I'll feel more "covered" while wearing them!)
Now to the top. Lemme just get my fangirling out of the way off the bat. It's SO much cuter in person. THERE'S SPARKLES! I didn't even see those on the photos Ewa has on her site. It's like swirly sparkles that sort of dash randomly across the fabric. SO GIRLY I LOVE IT! The colors are SO might brighter in person, too. The pink reminds me of the BM Fluo color. The orange is like a mix between neon orange and bright coral. It's lovely. The back clasp has the little hook ruffle cover thing, too.
As for fit, the top edge is a tiny bit gappy for me, but I expected that. The only bras that lay flat for me are my BMs, and I can't really expect a swimsuit to be made with stretch lace like a bra. This top fits so much better than my custom Saint Tropez. The straps aren't as wide, and the top lays down much better. The quality is simply magnificent.
I am so so glad I ordered this. I was having serious buyer's remorse because of the price, but I got it right away on the first day of the sale, so it was a bit cheaper anyways. It's worth it because now I won't have to order anotehr swimsuit ever again! So worth it. I'm in love.
I seriously hope everyone else who ordered it loves it as much as I do. Read more 321 more words
I love the colors on this so much. So happy you found something that works so well!
Your review makes me sad I missed out! I love all the sparkles and how beautiful the fabric is. If I can snag it I definitely won't get the bottoms because I prefer more full coverage ones.
I saw this one one online and thought it was super awesome and screamed Summer Fun! Glad it worked out for you and you get to rock this beauty for the warm weather.
This is awesome! I am so happy for you!!! 💕
It's gorgeous. Congratulations!
*squeee* I LOVE IT. IT'S SO, SO GORGEOUS. I am seriously so happy for you! I'm happy you got a swim suit that fits you! It's too bad about the bottoms, but I like the ruffle addition idea :) Hooray!
Awesome! Thrilled you finally found one that fits!!!
Awesome! Thrilled you finally found one that fits!!!
Looks lovely! Happy you finally got an awesome bikini!
This is a beautiful bra that I got from Sheena on the bratabase listings. Both listings that I got recently, one from Sheena (Ewa Michalak) and one from Anya99 (Comexim) were both 10/10 quality. So, I recommend both of these bratabase users, I know Anya99 has a lovely collection!
Anyway bra nerds: I definitely consider this a fit, but my nipples are not perfectly at the apex of the bra. By that I mean, they are not where the seams meet in the center of the cup. But it really is not a problem for me, I still get a flattering shape. ...I don't think the cups are too big though.
Lastly, the band feels pretty stretchy, I do have it on the first set of hooks. That being said, you tell from the pictures that I am maybe straining the 3 hooks a little bit, lol. But I really like my tight band, so Idk. This is a 70, but I did stretch it to about 30 inches, so it is a small 70 - thank you Sheena for the accurate description. (that being said I know we all measure differently!!)
Anyway, I'm pretty happy with this "bra win." It's the bratabase listings doing it's job. Lol. Read more 106 more words
Looks like a good fit! It's a rare thing for my nipples to sit where they should. They're usually lower and/or more centre.
Same here kate166 . I just have low nipples
Looks like another EM bra win, congrats! Ps. I thought this one was a darker colour, good to see how it really looks.
Okay, that is interesting kate166 and bustyand !
margesimpson , I actually just snapped a photo with my phone comparing the colour: this bra (Deser Nugatowy vs. BM Perla) and you can totally see the difference! https://www.bratabase.com/picture/dm3r2/
sometimes I think it's just the lighting. I took the try-on photos in a sunny room.
I think this would work for medium tone skin. As you can see what it looks like in alternative lighting.
Thank you for your input, ladies!!
I’d agree with the nipple bit. Mine are usually lower than the diagonal seams. Especially in EM BM. I find that the 70 bands fit more like 30 than 32, which I prefer, though some 65 bands can be stretchy, like the Onyks I just got.
BraOdyssey thanks for the comparison photo! You can really see the shade there. Awesome!
BraOdyssey I’m too late! I just checked and the nougat BM is sold out of my size (and most sizes). Not that I needed to buy another bra anyway lol
margesimpson Have you checked Forever Yours Lingerie in BC? I know that they had it at one point as I tried a couple sizes of it on.
Calluna yes, I have checked and for sure they have it. Buuuut they’re more expensive. Hoping at some point to get it on sale. I tried to exchange a bra with Ewa Michalak and they said they never received it so I lost 100+ $ :( Right now I have a ton of bras too lol Sorry you probably didn’t want this long winded response lol
Ok, let me preface this by saying I really dislike white and beige bras. It seems every one I've tried on hasn't fit right for weird reasons that do not make sense. Mot of them are just.... boring looking. I'm a sucker for bold, bright colors, even with my bras.(Which can cause issues while wearing light colored shirts, of course, lol!) Until now! I could gush about this bra so so much. It's BEAUTIFUL. I read a bunch of the reviews here, and scoffed in my mind, thinking, "How could a white AND beige-ish colored bra have such great reviews? Must be a fluke." That's why I ignored this particular ...model when Ewa released it earlier this year. I finally caved and bought one on Black Friday, and I am SO GLAD that I did! This bra is just gorgeous; it's as simple as that. The pictures online don't really show the tan/light brown color lining very well; it looks like it's all cream colored. The lace is, but on top of the tan lining in the cups, it looks like dulce de leche or something. It's really pretty. There's a matching bow at the gore with a little crystal gem decorating it. This, like all the other BM bras I've tried, fits like a dream. Projected, narrow, lace lays flat on both breasts! It's a magical bra. Read more 116 more words
The lace on this one is so flat and doesn't show under shirts. It's a great bra. Congrats :)
So happy it's another win for you! I agree, it is so beautiful and I'm not a beige or white bra fan either. :-)
Totally agree about the lace, it is INVISIBLE under shirts!
Also the lace reminds me of sea foam, it's very delicate looking
Ohhhhh it's invisible under shirts?? YUSSSSS! I haven't "worn it" worn it yet, only tried it on gleefully as soon as the mailman left after delivering it, lol. I'm planning to wear it tomorrow; crossing my fingers that the straps don't have to have narrowing surgery like my other Ewas.
woohooo!!! And yes this bra is gorgeous. So far, it looks great on everyone I've seen wearing it.
Ahhhhhh.....I Love white, beige (and black bras) and I've been resisting the temptation to order this one. So glad you like it!
My shape: full on bottom, soft tissue, narrow shoulders/roots. Appearance: Very well-constructed, shiny satin beige bra with stretchy lace top of the cups. I love the little pearl charm at the gore, but it could be an issue showing up under shirts. The fabric is really smooth and soft! This is perfect for hot summer days. I included pictures of me wearing it under a light blue tank top so you could see that it doesn't show up underneath light colored tops. (Except the strap where it sticks out. Not much I can do about that, hah!) Fit: I've had mostly successes with the BM styles, and this one is no ...different. It's the first half satin, half stretchy lace style I have tried, and it fits quite well. As always, I have issues with the fabric and strap digging into my armpit on one side, so I will probably move the elastic over so it isn't as bothersome. Overall, for a "plain" beige bra, this one is very nice! I ordered this one from Levana Bratique; she calls it the "Tulip" bra.It seriously only took two days to get here once I ordered it. I love that I can get Ewa bras so fast in the US. Read more 98 more words
It's the beige one! When you mentioned Tulip, I assumed it would be Tulipan which is the black one.
Do you find this one to be more comfortable than the full lace BMs? For me these half lace ones have been every time.
It looks like a great fit, so woohoo! :-)
MamaPagan I haven't worn it much longer than a few minutes yet, but it felt really comfy! I'll wear it all day after I move that pesky elastic strap over, and get back with you. :)
I eagerly await an update :-)
This was one of the first Ewa's I owned (but in 70J, I think) - I loved it and was so sad when I outgrew it
I just received this bra from damaries. 10/10 recommend as a seller. Thank you so much for the super fast shipping. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
I’m currently in between sizes due to weight gain, so I thought I’d give this size Sf a try. In the past I had a few 65G Sf’s, but they just didn’t work due to apex location being slightly lower compared to the Bm cut. Unfortunately this bra falls in line with the Sf cut. The apex of this bra, horizontal seem, falls short for my breast size/shape. My nipple is just a hair under the seem ...and if I wiggle too much it pops up and over the line. If the Bm cut has an apex just a little high for you, try the Sf!
The bra has lovely straps with a hint of pattern in them. They have a firm elastic stretch to them. The lower portion of the cup is the exact same color as the Bm Bibi Beżowa Perła, with the fabric of this bra being slightly thicker and slightly more structured in comparison. The lower cup consists of three pieces and the upper cup being two. The upper cup has a stretch micro mesh fabric that lays smoothly against the skin. There are small pearl like buttons where the strap meets the cup as well as on the center gore. The back band has a single layer of power mesh with a 3x4 back band closure. The hardware is all nude, matching the overall color of the bra. The bra gives a very nice round shape. As always this bra has great quality in construction. Read more 173 more words
Aww I’m sorry to hear that it didn’t work out for you! I can’t seem to get a good fit in SF bras either. I’ve tried several different sizes. This bra does look so great on you though! Thank you for recommending me 💗
damaries It just confirms Sf is not for me. But, what I’ll keep doing as I’ve done in the past is order a custom Bm with the Sf fabric as I did with my Garden bra. Some patterns and colors are just too cute to pass up.
This is my favorite cut. I had that exact bra yesterday. Kinda wishing it was a bit bigger. I’ve gained 3-4 pounds too and experiencing more cycle swelling than ever (well, besides prego days. Barf. )
This is so cute! It's a shame that SF's don't work for you :(. At least EM will usually make a SF in a BM for $10 or so extra.
So I've had this bra for about 2 years already - and even though it is marked as 'didn't fit' because of some minor issues, this BM La Gloria actually works well on me. I wear it quite often!
Look: Firstly, I .really. love this color. It's a foresty-green that leans towards dark teal - I think it's just Glorious (see what I did there? (; ) I like how the green color is matched with a green sewn-in ribbon running over the straps. The bra cups are constructed from floral stretch lace fabric, with a black stretchy mesh underlayer, creating some 'depth' and giving the lace a darker green ...hue than it actually is. Two years of wear < say, bi-weekly? I have a pretty large rotation > and bi-or tri-monthly-ish (?) handwashing sessions did cause some color leaking, so sadly it's currently a little less vibrant than when I first got it. As the lace fabric loses it's color more easily than the strap-ribbon and bra band material, there's some color discrepancy now. Also there's some minor snags/pulls on the lace, which makes sense as it's a delicate fabric.
Fit: To me this feels very much like a 'standard' size 32G/70G, if that makes sense? No extremes or outlier-measurements across the board (depth, height, wings, band, gore, straps etc,). The band is snug but not tight on my 78cm. ribcage, and it has held up well over 2 yrs of wear. The cups are reasonably projected and narrow, the shape it gives is up and forward, but also somewhat 'held close to the body', almost minimizing? To illustrate; I often reach for La Gloria when wearing a dress that is snug in the bust area, this bra always feels like it -holds me in- a little.
Construction-wise, I specifically love how relatively low the gore is! Wasn't sure what to expect of the gore height on a BM, but this is exactly where I prefer my gores to hit my sternum. Also, unlike some other Ewa bras, the strap placement still feels wide-ish but not too bad! I can wear it a full day without major discomfort, and even though the straps are somewhat 'rough'/ firm, it doesn't chafe to the point where I have to move the straps inwards (like I really could not avoid doing in my S style). May have helped that I sized down to 70G from my usual 70GG >> more on that below.
Due to the stretch, the fit is quite forgiving and on most days, this bra fits me well. When I'm feeling a little 'fuller' there's definitely some bulging; but the stretch lace prevents any real quad or cutting in.
All in all a bra with great construction and support, up to Ewa M.'s technical standards for sure, holds up reasonably well over time - with a gorgeous color and a flexible fit.
Keep in mind though that if you're evenly full / somewhat FOT like me and prefer a bit more coverage and support, just keeping your normal Ewa M. size for the BM bra style may be worth considering. Especially when strap placement doesn't bother you as much. Read more 592 more words
Update: I still love this bra! I do have to wear it on the tightest set of hooks and it ever so slightly rides up during the day. After trying a few new BM’s in a 65GG, I’ve concluded that they are not exactly a sister size (same cup smaller band). The proportions are slightly different but enough to feel a 65G would be a better fit.
I purchased this in EUC second hand, and I was so excited to get it today in the mail! I’m in love with the color! It’s a beautiful mauve pink-purple color. As soon as I put it on it was instant ...ahhhhh. This bra is very comfortable. I’m currently in between sizes with EM, and right now I’m trying to figure out what works best. I will also try a 65GG in the future as I think that might be my best fit with this style. The band in this is comfortable, and I will be wearing this on the tightest set of hooks. The band is a silky smooth fabric with an inside layer and a strip of lace detail that runs the whole length of the bottom of the band. It has 3x4 hooks. The cups are a lovely lace with the whole inside of the cup lined with a white mesh. The bottom of the cup has non stretch white mesh while the upper cup has a detached stretchy layer of white mesh under the upper cup. There are satin bows where the cup meets the strap as well as the center gore. The lace is very soft and actually looks pretty smooth under a light knit top. I love this so much I also purchased two more bras from the same seller in the same size. Read more 190 more words
Wow this bra is so pretty! I love the color. It looks great on you!
alisa Thank you. The pictures don’t do the color justice. Like many of EM bras, they are a work of art.
This bra looks so gorgeous on you. That colour on your skintone is magical!
Wilderness1 Thank you so much. I think this is one of those colors that would flatter many skin tones and complexions. It’s a shame it has to stay under a shirt all day.
I haven't decided if I'm going to keep this bra or not. It's really pretty, but something is off about the fit. The top of the gore sort of pushes into my smaller breast and makes a weird gap at the top of the cup, and on that same side (my right) there's a good half inch or so of space. My left side fills the cup nicely, but the right does not. I seem to have more problems with my smaller breast in Ewa bras; that's always the side where the strap placement digs into my armpit. Usually I alter the straps myself by removing some of ...the top part of the cup and moving the straps inward, and that seems to help with the cups fitting me more perfectly. I can't decide if I want to risk that with this bra, or send it back for a refund. These are pricy (well, to me!) bras, understandable so! But I would hate to change it and then have it not fit even afterwards. Oh, I ordered this from Levana Bratique, which is based in the US. I've had nothing but good experiences with them so far! I had ordered a different Ewa bra that didn't fit, and it took about a week for the refund to come back. I had used a promo code for $5 off for signing up for their email list, and when it didn't work for the second order I placed, Judy refunded it to me. I thought that was nice! Also, even with choosing USPS first class mail for the shipping option, it only took two days for the bras to reach me. So overall, I recommend Levana Bratique! Unrelated to my fit woes: this bra is so pretty in real life. It's a really pale pink, lacy fabric with soft white lining on the inside. There's a little gemstone on the gore, similar to the BM Kleks. Now maybe someone here can help me decide if I should keep this beautiful Apricot bra or not! Read more 231 more words
This sounds familiar. Is the gore a smidge wider than your others?
I don't think so, but the wires are overlapping in this one, whereas my other BMs are not. Could that be the issue?
A Fit Request would be most helpful to you. Narrower gores eliminate the gap for me. But, it sounds the opposite is true for you. A mystery ;-)
Yeah, I really need to get over my nervousness of taking pictures of bras on my actual body. :s I decided to return this, though, after all. I think the wires were a bit too close, and the gore just short enough that it was giving me issues.
I completely understand. I, too, had to work through that, but I realized the photos help so many others that I did it despite my anxiety. "I survived" ;-) ;-)
Best wishes finding a great fitting, light-colored bra. Red and lime-yellow have worked for me under white. It was a big surprise.
mandapandarawks I think many of us went through the same photo concerns, myself included. But if you think about it, a "bra on" photo really isn't different from a bikini top photo, & most women will go into public in a bikini.
Just because someone decided long ago that "this" fabric is acceptable for public display, while "that" fabric is for private & makes a woman vulnerable doesn't mean we should feel that way.
Most bra on photos couldn't be associated with you personally, so chances are you won't be walking down the street and have someone say "Hey! I seen your boobs on Bratabase!"
I have quite a few tattoos & I still post the bra on photos. If someone happens to see my tats and recognizes me, so be it. My bra is no different than a bikini in my mind, and usually provides more coverage than a bikini haha.
But like Love4Pollinators said, I know the bra on photos can be very helpful for many. So I take a bunch, probably too many, to try and cover every angle and detail. Each photo is helpful to someone, & if it helps even just one person, it is worth it to me. :-)
MamaPagan You make some very good points! Ya'll inspired me, haha. I just spent some time altering another beige bra I got and taking before and after photos of them on. I figure if I'm gonna be a bravangelist, I better go ALL OUT BRA. I'm gonna post my first ever fit request. I'm afraid I seriously messed up this friggin $67 bra, and hopefully there's a seamstressy type on here who can give me some pointers! *crosses fingers
mandapandarawks We are all each other's inspiration here on the BtB ;-)
There are several here who are quite skilled in the seamstress arts, so I'm sure you'll get some great pointers for sure. : -)
Way to go! Overcoming fear and anxiety is great for our brains, too. :-) :-)
Appearance: Another beautiful Ewa bra! The teal/petrol-ish color lace is what drew me to this bra. The cups are made of the lace, with a darker beige/tan colored lining underneath. The bow at the gore is a lot larger than other Ewa bras, but it doesn't bug me personally. Fit: I am FOB, narrow shouldered, soft tissue, and need projection. This, like just about every BM bra I have ever tried, fits like a dream. Even the straps are not too wideset. Hooray for no strap surgery! I noticed the band on this one is stretchier than my older Ewas, which seems to be a common theme from other recent reviews of the brand. I always wear my Ewas on the loosest hook, so I can always make mine tighter if it gets too stretchy. I did notice I had to put the band down a little more often than usual while wearing this particular bra. The cups seem a little taller, too. Overall, this was a win for me! I love it!
I'm generally not a fan of black bras--I find them incredibly boring. I want to say Czarny Tulipan needs huge big pink bows or something, but I guess that would take away from its simplicity (still I'm considering sewing a huge big pink bow on it...)
It's a very elegant, comfortable bra in the Bibi line of half-lace BMs. Half lace BMs are my summer perfection. I've been looking at the bras I bought and I'm thinking, this is all fine because it's winter right now, but what happens in the summer? Cause bulky lacy bras seem to not be very optimal for the heat we get here (35+ ...C in July). But the half lace BMs actually are just a single layer of satiny material and some stretch lace on top. Perfect.
However, because of that, they might not be a good fit to some. Full lace BMs have another layer of mesh under the lace to sort of give some shape to the breast, and then on top of it, additional shaping is provided by the lace. For a non padded bra, it's a fair amount of structure. With half-lace BMs, that element is gone. I think most really bad fits with BMs I've seen have been with the half-lace BMs exactly.
But anyway. This bra is essentially the same as my 70G - Ewa Michalak » Bm Bibi Beżowa Perła (533), however, it runs smaller in the cup (and it shows). On my larger side in the photos you can clearly see where the seam cuts in. It's nothing special, no big deal, but a thing to note. From experience, this will stretch out and fit a little better after some wear. It's how it was with Bezowa Perla as well. The wires are wire perfection. I wonder if the reason this and Fuksja run small in the cup is because of the black dye... it makes the fabrics less stretchy or something. I think that would make sense. Kaska said she has no idea why they run smaller in the cup, just that they do.
And yes, I do have a Fuksja in the same size on the way... Read more 251 more words
I read somewhere black dye resulted in smaller and less stretchy fabric.
Yes, same! I don't have the red or the white, but the beige doesn't run small at all.
I really want one of these. I do love a nice black simple but elegant bra. That’s why I love my S Szykus so much. Simple yet elegant.
Yes it has classic elegance, if you will. Very pretty.
It's funny, but I have the half lace BMs in Black, White, Red, & Fuksja and they all fit the same. They are slightly smaller than my full lace BMs but definitely not a half cup smaller. It's really more of a feeling like their upper lace is slightly more hugging/less open than most of the full lace ones. At least that's what I've experienced anyway!
Comme all the black bras on the planet. I'll take them all lol i love them. Gorgeous. I guess a half lace is on my list now....
It should be! They're definitely the best of BMs!
I second that comnent brasaremean. They are bra perfection! I can't wait for the new pinstripe one to come out next year..... I do wonder what color it will be. Hopefully they will post Instagram photos of it soon.
I hope no white :(
I would love a blue one, but figuring it will most likely be black or white. Honestly I am good with any color as long as it's the half lace BM!!
I'll agree with that sentiment brasaremean I do not like white undergarments. I've only owned one white bra and not because I wanted to but because it was available, lol
Especially in the summer white bras are pretty much useless to me! You can't really wear them under anything.
MamaPagan we just gotta keep an eye out on their IG maybe we get a tease of the pinstripe bra.
i think years ago there was some, let me find it. Ewa Michalak Bm Groszki (661) Ewa Michalak Bm Tajemniczy Ogród (872) Ewa Michalak Bm Szarotka (560)
I'd kill for these. Especially Groszki and Szarotka!
Totally agree on the white which is why I was hesitant to try Lucy from amazon...only white in my size. But I’ve found a red Lucy which is better and is supposed to be good for under white shirts (not like I have any, really).
I would gladly welcome them all brasaremean! ! :-D
I would choose black over white hands down, yet white over beige. To me beige just amplifies my spotchy skin. Brown and Tan I love, but beige, not so much.
Oh gosh, the band on this is a real issue. It's giving me no support whatsoever, I had to put it on tightest hookset otherwise the cups completely collapse on me. I sent an email to Kaska to change my Fuksja to 65GG, hopefully it's not too late.
Fingers crossed she can change it in time for you!
Ahhhh, here it is. My precious. 75F - Ewa Michalak » Bm Bibi Beżowa Perła (533) fit me well even when the band was loose and the wires really odd, and the cup too shallow. I still loved wearing that bra just cause it's soooo damn comfortable. 70G is not any different.
It fits about the same (if not better--more coverage, more space at the wire, more better). There is slight loose lace on top of my smaller side, but nothing to worry about.
Per Kaska at EM, half-lace Bibis run smaller in the cup, about half a size. I don't think that applies to Bezova Perla, it feels as roomy as my Antonina, but it definitely does apply to 70G - Ewa Michalak » Bm Bibi Czarny Tulipan (521) which I will review next.
Such a beautiful every day nude bra. Looks great on you!
Thank you, April! Half lace Bibis are bra perfection!
It looks good on you ;) and yes it is pretty comfy.
Yes, it looks great on you! I like fuller coverage it seems to have.
In this size it definitely does! I had a 75F and it wasn't nearly as much coverage DarianaWheeland
Frazzleberry yes its pretty much like second skin!
The half lace BMs are my bra bliss! It's wierd that Kaska told you they run a half cup smaller, since she told me they were just slightly smaller earlier this year. To me, it really jyst feels more like the upper lace is a bit more closed in but the cups fit/feel the same as the full lace BMs otherwise, definitely not a half or even a quarter cup difference in the ones I've tried. I think it may be dependent on the seamstress that's making them though, which is why we see subtle variations in fit throughout the BM (& other) lines maybe? Either way, as long as they are comfortable and fit, it's all the matters right? :-) They do look great on you!
"The full lace BM bras have slightly deeper cups that the half lace BM bras (I actually don't know why...) but the difference is usually about half a size."
Her exact words. Maybe at these regular size ranges it's like this, while it varies in at the end of the size spectrum.
I believed you, I just don't know why she would say different things, but you might be right about it being a standard size vs the custom size range. You'd figure they would be consistent. I wonder if the half a cup is based on what other customers have told her? That could be why you didn't experience it either on this one, as it varies by bra and person? I wonder if we will ever be able to figure the Ewa puzzle out, haha! Darn it, we will try though, won't we? :-D
Whenever there's human factor involved (such as seamstresses) there will be inconsistencies, at least I think that is the most obvious explanation.
I agree, but I still like to think we can solve the puzzle and figure it all out, haha! I like my puzzles!!
I ordered SM Wanilia to make sure the size would work for me and it was super discounted during the Black Friday sale. Upon putting it on the first time, I was really, really disappointed. My smaller side was gaping hardcore and the larger side was gaping some as well, and that's after some serious scoop and swoop. At the same time, somehow, the larger side was also quadding. It looked pretty hilarious.
So I wanted to take pictures for the review (for the hilarity of it) and I noticed something... Turns out, it was the straps (which I loosened all the way out of habit). After playing with them ...for a bit, I got the bra to fit near perfectly.
I like see through bras cause they show exactly how bra is sitting on the breast (or how the breast is sitting in the bra?) I think this one showcases that pretty well. The wire is almost near perfect in my imf, and I see some compression (the wrinkly skin).
Beside that, SM Wanilia is beautiful. I was pretty surprised to not find a single one on Bratabase... after all, not everyone absolutely hates white bras like I do.
The bra has three part cups, made of non-stretch mesh. The top of the cups is lined with beautiful white and pink floral lace. This bra is a little more shallow at the wire than my BMs but somehow it is not a problem at all. The cups aren't sliding down, the wire doesn't move. The band is snug, but I suspect it might be because of the shallow cups. The bra doesn't feel small, it is actually quite comfortable and doesn't make me feel like I'm squeezing myself into it.
The gore tacks perfectly. The little pink polka dotted bow is so cute!
The shape I get (esp under a shirt) is pretty satisfactory! It looks very natural I think.
I think this would be a good bridal bra! Is that a thing? It's very delicate. I'd say a hidden gem among EM's bras. Read more 226 more words
Thanks! I'm trying not to spam everyone's front page but it's happening anyway!
The page for this says "the band is quite tight". It doesn't look that way from your measurements, though. What do you think?
I think it feels tight because of how shallow the cups are honestly. To me, it doesn't feel tight. I try not to distort the wires beyond what would be normal. The band can actually be stretched way more but I don't enter that measurement lol.
I ordered SM Czarna Mgielka on Black Friday for the exact same "sheer visual" reason!! I want to figure out a SM fit darn it, or at least see exactly why it does not. I hope mine fits as beautifully as yours does. It looks great on you!
I’ve always liked this one and the black one. And yes, bridal lingerie is totally a thing. Big Cup from Big Cup Little Cup had a whole mini series of posts on her bridal trousseau.
I don't really follow bloggers, to be honest.
Oh ok. I don’t either, but that’s one that I do follow. Most of the others I like have stopped posting.
This bra has been reviewed on here with the “Wanilla” spelling which is how it was spelled when it was an exclusive model for Bra Obsessed in Canada. This is a beautiful bra.
I actually just came across that today on my phone!
Maybe Jj can link them or switch it? :-D Since it is Ewa, I assume the Ewa official spelling would be more appropriate but switching this one would definitely be easier than manually changing the rest. Your thoughts Jj?
lcl0706 Our fearless leader has linked them for us. :-D
I took (yet another) chance and ordered this bra in 70G, and I have to say, while my smaller side gets considerably less support it feels so so good on my larger side. The wires are not as narrow as my 70FFs, it has way more coverage and it just doesn't feel as tight.
That being said, if I so much as lose a cm in my boobs, this bra will be too big.
The cups are your typical BM 3 part cups, with the top lace being super stretchy. The inside is lined with a beige mesh, and I have to say from the stock photos I would have thought ...the mesh would be lighter. The lace is pure white--another thing that in stock photos looked a bit more cream to me? But it doesn't matter. This bra is beautiful. I will say that on my smaller side it feels like I could have gone down in cup with this bra. Even on my larger side I struggle to fill out the cup completely. One thing I'm very scared of is that after a prolonged wear, the bra will not be as supportive. BMs on me tend to do this, after 7-8 hours, they just sort of flop down. I used to think this is because my 70FFs are dangerously close to being small so they slide down and such but I don't know... it might be just how these bras are.
The wires feel a lot better for my larger side, mainly cause they are longer, so really the wings are higher and I feel a little bit more contained. On my smaller side... I mean I already know it will slide down as it's too wide for my smaller side.
The band feels wonderfully snug, not too tight, not loose at all, just right. The gore tacks, is very narrow, blah blah, bra makers take note, this is how you make gores.
I don't think it's gravity defying lol. I mean, there's considerable lift, but maybe it's the size, I'm used to more lift (and compression I guess?) It also looks like my boobs are a little bit wider in this new size, and I feel like maybe my asymmetry is more pronounced in it.
Overall, I'm not disappointed in this bra. It's beautiful, it's supportive, and as long as I maintain my boob it will probably fit. On the plus side, I'm at the beginning of my cycle and so my boobs are at their smallest right now, so maybe going into the month the bra will fill out better? Read more 318 more words
Thank you veggiechic it really is a beautiful bra!
It looks like a great fit to me. Gorgeous 😀
Thanks Sovavosi I have Apricot, Kleks and Fuksja on hold because I wanted to see how these will fit and now the doubt is killing me if I should go for 70G or 70FF
Apricot fit small on me. I hope that it was a fluke and works for you.
Hm by that a 70G might actually be better for it then!
This looks gorgeous on you!
This one looks so much better on than the stock photo. It’s gorgeous. Your worries mirror my potential concerns about the one I ordered. We just have to wait and see, I guess.
The fit looks fabulous! I love the lace. It looks so much prettier than in the stock photos. It's a hidden gem
I'm breaking my own rules here and wearing it without washing first and so far no sliding, very comfy, I feel like its holding up well (less so on my smaller side but it is expected).
It looks great on you! :-)
It feels a little too big :(
But it looks good at least. :-D My Antonina measured larger in the cup but didn't feel larger which was weird. Per my notes, Antonina fit like Kleks in the same size, if it helps.
I already confirmed the 70Gs. That being said, Antonina doesn't measure that big at all, I think it's just I lack top fullness to fill it. And at this cup size, I feel like the band might be a bit too loose? I'm gonna test this out with putting it on tighter hook.
would it help to put a cookie on your smaller side?
and WOW what a beauty. i couldnt stop looking at it!
Hopefully a tighter hookset will do the trick brasaremean. Keep us updated! :-)
dbmamaz not sure how it would work with a non padded bra :/
Beautiful bra! I agree with dbmamaz, I couldn't stop looking at it either! I want get one some day!
Hooking the band on second hooks makes a ton of difference. A ton (I now understand the gravity defying thing, lol). So I feel like I could have gone for 65GG :/ but I hate squeezing myself into 30 bands cause I sit a lot and the band bothers my acid reflux. Esp Ewa's 65 would prolly feel more like a tight 30 which I just can't do. Oh well, looks like second hook it is.
It also feels like my 70FFs or 75F just didn't have enough immediate projection. These wires stay firmly in my imf, I'm talking like they're glued there and not budging. This bra is definitely deep enough at the wire for me!
Glad the tighter hookset worked brasaremean! And the gravity defying is amazing isn't it?!? :-D
It's gorgeous! Obviously you know your body best but to me, visually, this looks like the best fit I can remember seeing in your photos out of all the bras you've posted so far (that I've seen--I admittedly have not been on much in the past week or so).
For sure wendybien This bra looks like all the boob is actually in the cup! I think the 70FFs were not necessarily small, just too short on the sides for that to happen.
I agree! I think this is a better match for your anatomy, considering the height of your roots and the overall distance between the base of the breast and shoulderline. And if you have monthly fluctuations and will gain some volume in the second half of your cycle you will REALLY appreciate that additional coverage and volume then, because it will feel so much more supportive.
Yes unfortunately I may have underestimated how low set I really am, but I am coming to terms with it. I'm not sure why, I feel like when I was younger my boobs were not really this low on my torso! I remember for sure at some point having that cakes-on-a-plate cleavage right under my chin, lol. But maybe I'm imagining it.
I'm on the pill, so my low tide days are the days I'm not on the pill, literally those 7 days are when I'm small, and then the second I start again they just retain so much water (I imagine that's what it is) throughout, culminating in what feels like at least 2 cups larger than my usual--my laying perimeter goes from 26.5 (low tide) to 29+ at the end. It's crazy (but a necessity I learned to deal with). So hopefully this will work much much better for the end of the cycle.
My breasts are also getting lower seemingly. It’s really weird.
brasaremean usually when we experience boob growth, the base of the breast root gets taller more than it gets wider (in fact it is quite limited in how wide it gets on many people). So if your chest is larger now than it was then, your underboob crease has moved south! Or if you have had pregnancies or breastfed children that usually causes a loss of fat and a growth of glandular tissue, which means shape changes and often less full on top, even if you have always been low-set.
I've never had kids or breastfed but I've taken hormones my whole life for reccuring ovarian cysts which did make (and does make) my boobs just grow and grow... I guess that is probably it.
Yep that would do the trick. So you don't have particularly low-set boobs at all IMO, you just have full, tall and projected boobs, and if you are even a little bit tall or long-waisted, this means you can easily run out of strap length on standard bras. I am actually very short-waisted and slightly high-set but my boob projectedness and root height means I use almost the full length of the straps on most bras. If I were taller or longer-waisted I would absolutely have a strap length problem, and I'm several cups smaller than you.
I must say I was puzzled looking at the photos in the red knit top--the arm is a typical reference point for someone's proportions and "low-set" boobs would at least be closer to elbow than shoulder level, but yours are right in between, if not a little higher up.
It definitely *feels* like I'm low set. Literally any bra -- the straps are too short. When I look at the photos, they seem really low as well.
But maybe they're not. Either way the straps are a big issue (so much so my neck and back hurt from too short straps). I should really teach myself to replace straps on bras.
I'm about 172cm so I'd say average height (for this region, at least).
brasaremean well it is a very relative thing--your inframammary crease is obviously lower on the torso than most people with smaller breasts, less full breasts, or "shorter" roots (yours look tall as well as projected). So yes, compared to the general population this means your boobs are lower because they take up more room vertically, period. But compared to other people who share your boob size/shape, I don't think you look particularly low-set in these photos, though images may be misleading of course. Generally, though, again, this is a common problem because bra straps typically are not generously long --as I said above, I have a VERY short torso (162cm but disproportionate, so I have long legs but wear smaller, shorter shirts than my mother in law who is 145cm!!), I'm only a 32E/30F, and I'm wearing a Wacoal full cup bra today with straps almost completely extended. I have the strap on my small-boob side adjusted to just 4cm (total length--folded is 2cm) less than absolute maximum and on the big-boob side I am just 2cm away from maximum! And this bra is a little big in the cups for me so that actually buys me extra strap length.
And yes replacing them can be good strategy. Strap strain is sooooo uncomfortable.
I think maybe the reason so many bra makers don't put longer straps is because there are more short girls whose straps are too long, than us who need longer.
Yes, strap pain is by far my worst offender when it comes to bras. Everything else I can deal with, narrow cups, short cups, wide cups, tight band, loose band, but short straps... nope.
btw wendybien Should I size up in band and down in cup with Empreinte and Maison Lejaby? I've been reading some reviews and the general consensus seems to be cups are on the larger side and bands on tighter one. It's kind of what I remember from French bras (and Prima Donna) that you can easily size down in cup cause they run large.
My Shape: FOB, narrow shoulders and roots, soft tissue, projected Appearance: The bright coral floral print on this bra is BEAUTIFUL! The colors really stand out on top of the white cups. The top is coral stretch lace and the straps are the same color. The fabric is really silky smooth, with the stiff white mesh lining on the bottom of the cup typical of SF bras. Underneath the stretch lace is a soft, thin mesh. At the gore and straps are white satin bows. Fit: This one doesn't fit me as well as the other SF styles I have; strap narrowing surgery is going to have to happen before ...it will fit me right. Honestly, I'm a little nervous of doing that now since my last disastrous attempt, but this bra is way too pretty to give up. Other than the straps, the bra fits nice and firm in the band, just as I like it. I think the lace will lace more flat once I move the straps over a bit, too. (FYI: I bought this from Sam at Broad Lingerie. She recently opened an online store, but doesn't have Ewa bras listed. You just have to email her and she can get them for you! The cost is only a few US bucks more than if you order directly from Ewa. I highly recommend working with Broad Lingerie!) https://broadlingerie.com/home/contact/ PS: I don't have my phone so I can't take pics yet! I will as soon as I get it back. I was too excited to wait, though, hahha. Read more 152 more words
I have the SM in 70J, and it seemed too big in the cup at first, but settled in nicely with some scoop-and-swoop. The gore seems higher to me, even on the SM, than I expected, and lower on my BM than I expected - tho the BM is an HH. My BM is definitely my go-to low-cut-shirt bra. well, except around 'shark week' when I totally fall out of it.
Thanks for the review! I have the 70FF sm Fiolecik on order. Can't wait!
Omg this is such a gorgeous bra. I want to try EM at some point, but that gore looks crazy tall. Do you think the cups/gore are taller than you find in other brands?
They make plunges, too
Yeh... looking now, the gore on the two 70G HMs I have are even taller than the 70H I had before and I don't know why. I believe halfcup gores are supposed to be a bit taller than balconettes (and ofc plunges) because they're cut straight across as opposed to a downward angle, but these ones seem a bit disproportionate in comparison. I mean, I would think they'd be shorter in a bra that's a few cups smaller but maybe something was off when they made these particular ones. I dunno =/
But in comparison to other brands, it's hard for me to say because they're the only half cups I've tried and I'm generally stuck to Marcie and Lily when it comes to British brands. But they do have styles with lower gores - the SM, S, BM and PL I *think* should all be lower. The SM for instance, is a balconette and has a gore that's just a little lower than a Marcie or Lily in a similar size.
CurvyCandy Jealous! They only have the size above and below the one I need and I don't know if I want to gamble between them :(. I wish you luck with it though!
It actually came in the mail this afternoon and I am sooo in love with it! I might never take it off.
This is a difficult review to write, but I’ll write it in hopes it will help someone out. I had planned to review when I was actually using it. I purchased this at a discount when I was 7.5 weeks pregnant and had hoped this would be my Go-2 nursing bra, but it wasn’t in the cards this time I guess. Anyway, this bra is a beautiful aqua shade. I thought it was a lace overlay, but the fabric is actually a printed silky smooth fabric. The cups are an aqua cotton fabric and very comfortable agains the skin. The upper cup has a lighter aqua lace that ...complements the printed fabric really well. The center gore has a little aqua bow on it. The straps are a textured darker aqua color with a medium firm stretch. The hardware on the straps is white. There is a clasp where the strap meets the cup for easy access for nursing or pumping. The clasp is connected to a triangle piece of fabric with white edging inside the cup. In my opinion this can easily be turned into a regular bra, with minor alterations, when you were done nursing. A bonus if you ask me. The backband is pretty flexible with a white inner lining and aqua elastic. The clasp is aqua and a 3x4 closure. It really is a lovely colorful nursing bra, definitely not your average boring nude nursing bra. I have faith I’ll get to use this in the near future. Read more 144 more words
I can only guess but I am sorry for your loss. I will think about you. ❤️ The bra is very pretty.
I’ve been drooling over this bra, I hope I can happen upon it in my size.
sending you all the good vibes to be able to use it soon ❤️
It's really a nice nursing bra, congratulations for the good fit.
Although I'm not pregnant, I also have 2 sets of bras. One set is half a cupsize bigger then the other, because I always get swelling boobs between ovulation and the next menstruation. So every day I can wear a bra with optimally fit.
This looks beautiful! Sorry it didn't work out. Fingers crossed for the future!
cupandahalf HeyBoobs Thank you! It’s a thought heartbreak hurdle, but we’ll make it over. We’re devastated, but not defeated! smjwzhan The comfort is the best part for anyone who needs it. Wish I could have had this my last pregnancy over two years ago.
Oh dear, I was really hoping it simply didn't fit. Not eloquent enough to come up with any worthy expression, but I prayed for you, your baby, and your family tonight.
I feel sorta bad, reading some of the other recent reviews of BM bras ordered by you guys; this is the first BM I've received of my order of four, and it fits like a dream. It's seriously perfect, even the straps! I'm not sure what is so different about this particular bra's straps compared to the other BM styles I have, but I don't have any need to move them narrower. It's amazing. Plus, this bra is my favorite color. It's the brightest red. Soooo pretty. I love it so much! Here's hoping ...the other three I ordered fit just as well! (Brownie, Apricot, and the new petrol blue one that I don't actually remember the name of)
Also, what are the little number tags that are sewn on the inside, near the wires? Does anyone know what they are for? All of my Ewa bras have tiny white tags with numbers on them, but they are all different. I wonder if it's the number of the seamstress who sewed that particular bra? Read more 79 more words
IF it is the seamstress, number 9 is and 4 are very inconsistent. Cos those are my prevalent numbers and each bra with the same number is different.
Hmm, I will have to check my labels now. I thought it was a QA number.
I think it is seamstress...
Two of my recent duds have different numbers, but one of the numbers is repeated on my other BMs, but these are bras that were sent to me from MamaPagan so they might not be the same person. What's interesting is that that number made a bra that is normal and one that is more like a 70J with a 60K label on it.
Another theory is it is the order # within that day's work for the seamstress. So a 4 would be the 4th order the seamstress worked on that day. (Benefit of this would be the fatigue potential. If they notice all bra complaints come from orders above a certain #, they'd start to limit the max order workload per day to below that number knowing QC drops after it is reached.) Just a theory though!
glad to know it fit you well..as for the numbers, I'm not sure at all..all of mine except one have been duds...and I think they're all different numbers lol. It is something I have been curious about though
My shape: FOB, soft tissue, narrow roots and shoulders This bra is so pretty! I'm not a big "purple" person, but this shade is so deep and dark that it almost looks black in pictures. The fabric is a really rich purple lace that is feels stretchier than my other BM bras, but it doesn't affect the fit at all. The bottom edge of lace, across the underwire, seems bigger and longer than my other BMs. It's not bothersome, just an observation I made. I had a hard time choosing between this and the BM Porto; they both look so similar. As always, I had to move the straps and the elastic ...at the armpit over a smidge for it to fit me perfectly. I wore it for a full day without doing my strap surgery in hopes that maybe I wouldn't need to do that anymore, but the straps dig into my armpits way too much to be comfortable. (Oddly enough, the only Ewa bra I have that I didn't need to move the straps over is the BM Absynt, and I'm almost 100% sure it's because the straps on that model are skinner and don't have the lace scalloped edge. Maybe she will make more bras with those kind of straps!) Read more 100 more words
I cannot gush enough about how pretty this bra is. It's WAYYYYY pinker irl than these pictures show. It borders on a hot/80's pink! I think I squealed with delight when I took it out of the package. It's very girly and cute. This fits just as well as the other BM I have. I think I will have to move the straps over slightly, as they are just a touch too wide for me. Once I do that, it should fit even more perfectly. (Measurements will be coming soon! I have a wild toddler hogging my attention, otherwise I'd be doing that now. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I was too excited to wait to show the pictures, hahah!) Edit: Ok so I already measured it because I don't like leaving this stuff hanging, hahah! Hopefully this info will help anyone else who is interested in this, or any other Ewa bras!
That Looks delicious *_* I cannot wait for my one now!!
Thrilled you can make the straps work!! Such a fun color :-D
martka00 did you order one? How does it fit? I just can't get over how awesome this bra is, hahah. The material is super soft and stretchy.
mandapandarawks I just received it today and im not really sure about it.. I think I'll sell it. Im definietly going to keep Wersal, and tomorrow Im expecting Antonina and Abstynt (hope the Abstynt will be little bit more into my style *_* ) . What I can say about my Fluo is that it has same measurements as rest of 70E I have, its feels comfy (ive tried it for couple of mins). Band is more stretchy that the lace ones. Overall perfect fit but just too pink for me :D
martka00 hahah I get it! it is QUITE pink. It reminds me of an 80's/90's hot pink color, which is probably why I like it so much. Nostalgia from growing up in that era I guess! I was thinking of the Absynt myself! But I had already ordered a BM Crazy (that I am still waiting on) so I figured I didn't need 2 green bras. When you get yours, take lots of pics of the bra! I'd love to see the color. (What I found out after ordering all these fun colored bras is that... oh crap! I do NOT have a beige bra to wear under white shirts, hahaha!)
Until I was like 20 I wasnt wearing pink (except pants).. Then slowely I starter to wear light shades and now I do wear fuchsia like but not neon pink hahah! I mean, I can wear pants, but bra looks weird.. I have orangeys, turquoises etc but just not sure re this pink! And overall I have way too many bras so Im not keeping anything that im not 100% sure about it! :D I have Jezynka which is bit different shade tho Regarding green bras... I have 3xSzmaragd (yeah, same fking bra :D but at least in three different sizes). Its my favourite bra and just want 10 of them lol (i know crazy is similar, but these pink straps put me away unfortunately). If you need beige , Im hoping for my Antonina to work as nude, otherwise I'm planning to get bibi bezowa, also if you have fair (or bloody white to the extreme) skin like mine Apricot works amazingly!
Oh! I was looking at the Apricot! I do have very pale skin, so maybe I will get that one as my "beige" bra!
Great review! FYI, on the fit screen you can check off all the issues you had with the bra and then go on to 'personal assessment' and click that none of the issues you described are a problem for you to mark the bra as fitting.
