Fits like a UK 36J/K. Beautiful and unusual color combo. Lovely materials and construction.
I think it would look fab if it fit.

The band is 1 too large and the cup 1 too small for me. I like the cut; it's VERY open on top like a half cup. I think it would be lovely on the right size. The color is a yellow leaning ivory with a subtle tonal wavy line pattern to the fabric.

If you'll pay the shipping (US only, please), it's all yours. UK 20 (US 16-18 ish) in shockwave print, dark blue, chartreuse and turquoise colorway. Has adjustable tie sides. Worn once as it didn't really suit my shape and I prefer a higher rise anyway. Now I've lost weight and it doesn't fit. Shipping $4.81 via paypal to the first person to claim it.

I would be thrilled. My under bust is now about 32 - the smallest I've been since I started measuring - and I like my bands tiiiight. All my 75 and 80 bands are now just not supportive, and my cup runneth over anyway.
Overcome with the need for a fix of marijuana print undies, I ordered from Ewa Michalak again. Guys... I'd forgotten how good a bra could look and feel. The wild ass guess 70J I picked is perfect (although a hair small in the marzipan I also bought). I swear I lost weight and got taller just trying them on.
I ... have some decent Comexims but only EM's have ever brought tears to my eyes like this. Dammit.
Pics and reviews will be posted after I take updated measurements and wear for a day or 2.
If anyone is sitting on a stash of EM's in 70j/jj that they don't need, holla!

So jealous of the ganja - i asked for it in fb and they said no. I'm not sure if i have any 70J/JJ left but i can look? i pretty quicly moved to 75 because i had too many bad experience with 70s that only stretched to 30.5 to 31 inches

Packing tape had some additional, although still limited, success. Tweezing is what I'm hoping to avoid but it's probably the ultimate solution. I'm definitely going to try the vacuum first!
Thanks so much!
There was an incident with the laundry recently and a lingerie bag containing 3 beige bras got washed with a dog's blanket. We have two black & brown pit mixes and their short, stiff hair is now utterly embedded in all 3 bras, particularly around the underwires and straps. I've lint-rolled with limited success. Other than cussing/crying, any suggestions for how to get these itty bitty hairs out?

Hmmmmm....packing tape tends to pick up things that a lint roller won't. It's stickier. Have you tried that?
Tweeze them?

My sister bought this Noemy demi bra from Zulily. She said the band was fine but the cups were too big. She's prefers a 36/38 band but hasn't yet come to terms with her actual cup size; she's probably a UK 36H/HH. It was too big on me in every direction so I'm unable to quantify.
It seems well made, attractive and practical. The 3-part cups are deep and have lace overlay on the bottom 2/3. The straps are smooth and fully adjustable. There are 4 rows of 3 hooks.

I purchased this from another member ages ago but reviewing 12/2018, it fits my 32H/HHish self pretty darn well without the cookies in place. 4rows of 3 hooks, fully adjustable straps, well made, reasonably unobtrusive under clothing, and comfy. I just have to be careful not to snag the lace overlay.

Purchased ages ago, but reviewing 12/2018: I have this bra in a 75J also, but this one is a better fit for my current size (apprx 32H/HH UK). I've read that black bras tend to run smaller and I'd say that's true for both of these. I'd like a smidge more depth immediate projection, but it's close enough.
It's a nice basic black bra and the blue bow at the center keeps it from being boring. The lace is reasonably discrete under clothing. Band has 4 rows of 3 hooks each and the straps are fully adjustable.

Purchased in Fall 2018, but I can't remember from where/whom. It has no label/tag, so the size is my best-guess so I could add it. It looks very much like my Anna Pardal Hibiscus, except the base is red instead of beige, and it doesn't have the edging on the cups. It's a beautiful bra with handy reconfigurable straps and 4 rows of 3 hooks. The cups are comfortably lined in red cotton.
My only complaint with this bra is the straps which are VERY difficult to adjust. I have them tightened all the way, too, so I'd have to have them taken in if I wanted to go shorter.

Purchased Oct/Nov 2018 knowing it would probably be larger in the band since I've owned it in a different size. It is pretty true to size. It's also just gorgeous and utterly impractical. Two hooks is nowhere near enough yet the support manages to be adequate and somehow, it remains comfortable. The wires are much lower at the wing and the gore than typical Panache, so it's not stabby. The straps are borderline not short enough, which is a problem I've never had.

12/2018 Received this recently from another member. It technically fits, I guess, but it's a mis-match for my shape with those wide wires and not quite enough immediate projection. Also, it's the sternum-stabbiest bra I've ever had but that's partially due to the round boobs contained in more conical cups. It looks pretty good and the stretch lace at the top would make it useful for a variety of less-round boobs.

12/2018 I got this bra ages ago from another member. It's smaller than your average 36 band by a fair bit and fits like a 34H-ish; I can wear it on the tightest hooks. The wings are a little lower than I'd like but the fit is otherwise secure & flesh contained. There's a little gap under the cup/strap intersection, but it's not visible on. The lace overlay isn't practical; it's only a matter of time before I snag it with jewelry or a zipper when getting dressed. It's perfectly comfy.

Thanks - I knew I'd seen reviews with dates somewhere. I'm hoping it's an easy feature to add to the personal reviews down the line. As we age, I'm sure it won't just be me rediscovering bra stashes and being daunted by having to try them all on again.
12/2018 Although I've had this bra for quite awhile, I was heavier when it fit meaning it's roughly true to size - about a 34H UK equivalent. It has removable straps that can be worn as a racerback and very smooth cups. It's very pretty and provides reasonable lift and shape with great cleavage.
It lacks the immediate projection that I need and it only has 2 hooks (although there are 4 rows).

I love the idea of a peplum but I'm short waisted so they never fit properly off the shelf. I imagine you could scale it to perfection once you get the hang of it, though. You might try a prototype with a well fitting top & tack on a peplum piece before you commit.
