Beautiful, red and simple in style. I'm sure the label is wrong. It's should be 70g but unstretched band is only 54cm! The band stretches to around 74cm, so it's too tight for me. Even with an extender attatched. The cups are made of thin padding, are very soft and I bet it could be very comfortable bra to wear.
Otherwise a very good bra – support is good and the shape is fabulous, the band is snug enough and doesn't seem to be too stretchy – but now I'm spilling out of the cups as my breast tissue is remigrating back into place https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />
Great uplift and support. Narrower wires, if you have a wide base this may not work for you. Cup is fine when I first swoop and scoop, but after settling the cup feels too big. Unless I have the straps very tight, there is a slight drooping because of this. Very pretty bra, very rounded and full appearance.
Love the lift on this bra, however the deep cups seem don't seem quite as supportive, since while there is some gaping at the top, so I need to tighten the straps quite a bit. Band seems to stretch out rather quickly, so I've moved to the 2nd row. Quality is great, love the fabric. I don't typically use the pads (which may explain the gaping).
This is a beautiful and well-constructed bra, but it definitely runs big; it fits like a Freya 32G, which is a terrible shame, as I was really looking forward to this bra. The narrowness of the wires and the depth of the cup were perfect for my shape, but the cups were just a bit too loose at the top, and the band really wasn't tight enough for me. I'll be listing this bra with the warning that it runs really big.
I love the brightness of the red, and it's well made of course. Fits my smaller side, the larger side has some cutting in. Straps don't chafe my armpit too badly. The lining is nice and cottony. It's okay to nurse in if you don't mind pulling the cup down or folding it out of the way. My daughter doesn't find this one very distracting, but most babies are partial to red so YMMV.
Fits my smaller side very well, cuts in on the bigger one. Okay to nurse in, if you don't mind pulling the cup down. The lining in the cups is delightfully cottony and soft, not itchy. The strap material does chafe because it goes in my armpit (that's my posture/narrow shoulder though, not a manufacturing problem). It's really pretty and gives a wonderful shape.
This is a gorgeous bra. The fit (narrowish wires, medium gore, cups neither too shallow nor too deep) and shape (rounded, centered, lifted) are much the same as other Ewa Michalak HP bras. The band is bigger than it should be, though, and the cups are pretty roomy for this size. It was too big for me to wear, so I don't know about the comfort level.
The PL Onyks did not fit me in the cup or the band. I have since returned it, so I don't have any measurements beyond the band, nor any idea how it wears over time. Unfortunately, the cups were too small and I was spilling out of the top, sides, and center. This bra came with asymmetry correcting inserts, but the cups didn't fit even with the inserts removed. The band was also too tight; I could fasten it on the loosest hooks, but it was uncomfortable and would have required an extender.
I'm a bit perplexed by the fit in the PL because I've been very happy with my 70G CH Lato/Toffik bras. My breasts are about a fingerwidth apart and of medium firmness. They have a tendency to spill into the center in plunge bras, although that could be attributed to the fact that I have yet to find a plunge suited to my size and shape. I also tried the PL Malachit in 65HH, but the band was too tight and the cups far too large.
It's really beautiful. It reminds me a little of my Ultimo Lulu. The band feels true to size. It closes with only two hooks where I would have preferred 3 (like in the chp Stalowka I ordered in the same size). The cups does not fit me though. If I pull my shoulders back it looks alright but if I stand in normal posture or just slightly moves my sholulders forward I get massive gaping. I feel like it would fit a lot better if the was just a small wedge at the edge of the cup at a 45 degree angle to make the cup slighty rounded. I'm unsure if its just my very soft boobs with no fulness on top or the size or cut being wrong. I might need something that keeps my boobs closer to my chest.
I like the look of it. The way the nude colored part on the inner which works fine on me.
The CH Toffik was the first bra I bought in my correct size earlier this year. The pictures are from the day it arrived in the mail, so I was dealing with some migrated breast tissue at the time. The band is very firm, and even having worn this bra regularly over the past 10 months, I'm only on the middle set of hooks. Now that my migrated tissue has corrected itself, the cups are the tiniest bit small (mostly just when I lean over), but not to the point where I ever need to readjust. You can also see in the pictures, the bra fits my slightly ...smaller left breast best. Brand new, the bra provided great support and held the weight of my breasts without any problems. 10 months later, it's still very supportive, but the thin foam of the cups isn't quite as firm and it sags a tiny bit at the bottom. Overall, the CH Toffik has held up to wear very well. It is a very comfortable bra, which provides a great round forward-facing shape. Easily one of my favorites! Read more 77 more words
I already wrote one review on this bra, but I reordered it in the right size, which is this one!
This fits great and is very comfortable. The details on this bra are lovely, and I enjoy wearing it. I've only had it a month, but so far it fits nicely and has not stretched out at all. I do think the band runs tight on this particular PL-- the 70 band is very comfortable, and normally 65 bands fit best for me in Ewa Michalak.
I also have the matching boy shorts, which are VERY cute.
My only real problem with this bra is the straps (which are not fully adjustable, for anyone who needs shorter straps): The adjustor doesn't stay where I put it. I'll probably try to stitch it in place.
Compared to my other Ewa bra, I would suggest actually sizing down a back size. Maybe up a cup size or the same cup size. I usually wear my bras on the last set of hooks for the first few months, this one needs to be worn on the innermost or the second hook for me. This bra shape is also almost corset like in its effect. I feel like I have victorian era boob. It looks nice with some tops, however it can be a bit awkward looking for a tight fitting tank. I will say it's a nice solid cup material that doesn't seem like it will flop and lose its form.
After reading other reviews, I went down a band size and it was absolutely the right decision. There seemed to be some difference of opinion on whether or not to go up one or two cup sizes, so I did two (up to a G) as I seem to be on the edge between Ewa Michalak's F and FF.
The strap measurement I put here is for the comfort straps. The bra also comes with regular, fully-adjustable straps and a halter strap (both of which measure 1.5cm).
This bra has shallower cups than the PL Cielus in the same size, but somehow I still can't fill out the tops of the cups (whereas the PL fits just fine in the cup). Maybe it would be better suited to someone with really firm breasts that are also very full on top? The band is also at least a full size stretchier than the PL Cielus.
