I am so confused by this bra. I thought Polish bras were much narrower and deeper in the cups than UK bras? This sheer navy blue lace half cup fits great. Are my roots not as wide as I thought? Are my boobs deeper than I believed? Looking at the measurements, I'm not sure what to think.
The 65G is roughly equivalent to a UK 30F. Since I start with 30F when trying on bras, that's what I ordered. This bra is made of sheer lace mesh cups, embroidered, with a crystal decoration at the center. I also got the matching panties, which has the same embroidered lace mesh ... at the front sides. I find the materials really pretty and sexy, though I know some people are tired of lace and embroidery in lingerie.
The straps are convertible, which I didn't realize when I bought it. Unlike my Ewa Michalak Pl Onyx's straps, the Skarlet's are VERY tightly anchored in back. I couldn't, in fact, remove them. The straps do detach in the front without too much effort. I think the combination of tight back connections and reasonably firm connections in front are better than the Onyx's. The connection points in the Onyx are so loose that the straps pop off when I wear it cross-back style, at least when I take off my jacket or lean sideways to get something out of my car's glove box. I no longer wear the Onyx cross-back style, which unfortunately was what I needed.
The downside for me with this bra is that, like 95% of the bras that fit my 30F boobs, the bra covers too much of my chest. I am extremely petite except for my shoulders and bust. I don't mind having some bras that are full coverage on me, even if they're supposed to be less than full coverage, but I do want some skimpy bras, too. Half cup bras are supposed to be low coverage and barely cover the nipple/aerola region. I know my nipples and aerolas are small, but this half cup seems like it could cover my aerolas if they were three times as big.
