Bra fitting help » First Ewa Michalak
Ewa Michalak » Pl Violet (165) » 75FF 34:8
Issue resolved
Will try other bra styles/ bigger cups.
Original problem
I think this bra fits pretty well but I'm not sure. There is some gaping on my left (smaller) breast. The band feels okay, if not just a little snug. My problem is the underwires stab horribly in the front whenever I bend down.
Added a couple more pictures, not sure if the angle is any better. Also added pics of the 75f.

Please provide a photo from the back. I wonder what would happen if you tighten the straps some more.
I don't think you are scooped in properly and I suspect you might need wider wires.Updated on October 25, 2012 Flag this

I second what Vlatka wrote.
Also, could you please post pictures of the 34F for comparision?
It would also help if you took a bit more care with the pictures in half profile. See this picture for the ideal postures and picture size:

The frontal view is ok, the shoot from the left side is really good, but the half profile picture in the middle doesn't show the relevant details.

thanks for the help. I'll be sending this one back, just not the right one for me. Do you have any suggestions of bras I should try?

I am not sure, but I think I can see you in the padded halfcups by Freya, especially the one belonging to the Lauren family. Ie Freya Lauren Padded Halfcup and the bras with the same cut. Other bras that you could try is the list of usual suspects: Panache Tango II Balconette, Curvy Kate Princess and other unpadded Curvy Kate bras (not the ones from the showgirl range), Cleo Lucy and bras by Fantasie, especially the Balconette/Plunge styles.
BTW, the fit of the Ewa Michalak bra is not that horrible, you could keep as a temporary solution if you had nothing else that fit you as well as this does. I am also reasonably sure you would be able to sell this again after a few months of wear. I just think that in the long run you are better off with wider wires.
Ok, thanks for the additional pictures.
I am now convinced that you have quite a bit migrational potential. Look at the picture from behind. See that bulge of puppy fat under the arms next to the straps? That bulge shouldn't be there. If you scoop properly over the next year or so and wear bras with large enough cups (and wide enough wires!) it will get smaller.
The gaping on the smaller left breast is normal with padded cups, shortening the strap on that side might help. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
What worries me is that the wires do look like they are too narrow. Instead of sitting flat the wires bulge out from the tissue sitting underneath.
I think you might do better with a bra with wider wires.
