Ewa Michalak » Pl Onyks (196) » 85G 38:9
Issue resolved
I think I am going to use so bigger cookies for the small gap issue and try tightening the straps. Also, I'm going to research all the Ewa's and go from there. Thanks for all the help
Original problem
I have acquired a gently used PL Onyks. It's as if my youthful bosom has been returned to me! The amount of lift, projection and separation I get is 2nd to none.
However, I have bottom heavy very loose breast tissue.
This bra fits wonderfully, it's just that there is a very slight gap near the straps at the top of the cups and it seems that the "girls" fall inward toward the gore.
Any suggestions before I order from Ewa Michalak?

I would probably suggest trying the S cut over the PL for you. The gore is slightly higher, so you should get better support for soft breast tissue in that cut.
A lot of people wear a larger size in PL cuts than other Ewa styles, so you may also consider going down a cup size in the S style.

Will do. Thanks!

I agree that the S style should work better for you. It looks like you may have a short root or most of your breast volume takes up a comparatively small vertical space on your chest. I found the S style to be rather tall, so hopefully it won't be problematic. It might not hurt to check out EM's half-cup styles (CHP, CH, HP) since they'll have higher gores than the PL, but lower overall cup height than the S.

The bra is actually in my boob crease.
I did tighten the straps a bit. This helped with the tiny bit of a gap I had at the top of the cups where the strap & cup meet.
I found the cookies that came with the bra and tried it with them. If it make any difference, I don't see it.

Absolutely every time. Doesn't mean the girls dont shift on their own, lol. Not as much in this bra though.

It looks like the band is really tight. How does it feel? You may want to go up a band size...I also agree with Valtron that you should check out the S cut for a more secure fit.

The band is just a touch more snug than I am used to. I usually wear a 36 inch. This runs 29.3 inch to 38.6

Yep, S or SM for you.
But before I suggest a size in the other style I would like to see you pull that bra up so that wires sit in your boob crease and tightening the straps some more :)
