There’s so much that I like about this bra, but I’m still on the fence about the fit.

I’ve tried the Ewa Michalak S cut before, but it gave me almost too much uplift, and I think I sized up too much. This CHP cut is different, in a good way, but I think I could’ve even gone down 1 more size? It seems slightly too projected.

This is a 2 vertical seams, half cup, padded bra. It has a TON of immediate projection and is very open on top (because it’s a half cup). It comes with cookies that pad the bottom and give a good lift. ... Without the pads, it’s too open on top for me. With the pads, I get a very full, round, “Marie Antoinette” look. Honestly, I was going for a look like that with this, so I’m happy with that. The band fit firmly, and I believe the straps are half adjustable.

Going back to the projection and openness, I’m wondering if I could’ve sized down 1 more cup size to get a little more compression. It seems like there’s space where my nipples are housed inside the bra. The cup height is pretty good, I don’t notice as much gaping at the strap as I normally do with other bras.

Overall, I think I’m going to keep this one for now. The size problems are minor thanks to the cookies. Plus, I think exchanging it will be too much of a hassle since this came directly from the Ewa Michalak website. (Side note: shipping was SO FAST from the website, I think I literally ordered this bra on a Monday or Tuesday and it arrived by Thursday.)
