Color
Black
US Band (Native Band)
US Cup (Native Cup)

Unpadded full-coverage balconette style in the 'Czarny Tulipan' colorway featuring 3-part cups made of lovely black lace layered on top of black mesh. A medium-high bridge, narrow underwires, and projected cups create lift with a rounded shape. Narrowly-set cups gather breasts within the contour of the body.

Highlights

  • Cups: Three‑part balconette cups with a vertical and horizontal seam and stretch lace overlay. Low-stretch lower panels for structure, and a stretch lace upper panel for flexibility.
  • Band: Firm, tight-fitting, and low stretch band anchors firmly to the ribcage to support heavier busts.
  • Straps: Fully adjustable, slightly wider‑set straps for open necklines.

Best For:

  • Even or Full-on-Bottom Shapes: The more closed upper cup provides great support without cutting in, ideal for those with fullness concentrated lower in the bust.
  • Projected Shapes: Generous depth at the wire makes this a comfortable choice for those who need space without pushing the tissue out of the cup.
  • Medium-to-Soft Tissue: The firm lower cup gives secure lift, while the soft, stretchy lace upper cup gently adapts to your shape.
  • Ewa Michalak First-Timers: The BM is one of the most adaptable and comfortable styles in the line—an excellent intro to the brand.

FIT NOTES

When converted to US-sizing, Ewa Michalak bras run small in both the band and the cup, so almost all customers prefer sizing up in both.

For example, if you typically wear 34H US size (75FF in Ewa Michalak sizing) in other brands, try EM in 36H (80FF) to go up one cup in volume and one band size.

Beautiful and Supportive

Ewa Michalak bras are my new favorites because of their support and incredible craftsmanship. The material of this bra is very light and the lace details are beautiful. I do find that I have a little space at the top of the cup on the side I have asymmetry on but it is not visible when wearing clothes. If you are full on bottom with a little bit of symmetry and love the SF style I think this is another great style to try out.

Best of the best

Truly devastated that it seems like these are going away based on current availability. This bra is a WONDER for the big busted/small band gal. It keeps everyone front and center to maintain a thin frame, holds up all day, is spectacularly comfortable and is built to last.

This is a great Bra to push them in and out

This is a great Bra to push them in and push them out front projection I wear the Polish bras pretty much all the time they run a little big this one does in particular I’m a 32G but I can wear a 32 double F in this bra and it’s excellent very comfortable. I had three reconstructive breast surgeries and this bra really makes them look nice. It’s very supportive. It’s a great Bra

Comfortable which is important when you have

Comfortable which is important when you have heavy, dense breast tissue. I have almost all recommended brands and finally found one that meets all my needs and is pretty. I cannot comment on longetivity, I have had it for about a month, but 5 out of 5 recommend.

Beautiful and supportive

Hang in there for the right fit, and ask customer service for help, because it's worth it! I measure as a 32H, but this bra runs small. 34I is perfect for me. Tons of side support, enough overall support to allow a little jiggle up top, but not a lot. I don't enjoy jiggle. Gorgeous materials, well made. This white BM Balconette is now my favorite bra. (and the model shows it off very well)

First time buyer

This was my first purchase of this brand and style, and my first Polish brand bra. I sized up in band and cup as recommended, but I needed to exchange as the cups were too large (my breasts are bottom heavy and the tops of the cups were loose). Let me say, I’ve never had a bra fit this well or make the girls look so good. I get the hype now and the price is well worth it to look and feel this good. I will buy more.

Finally a bra that fits me and looks great!

I recently ordered both this one and the regular (non Bibi) balconette. Finding properly fitting bras has been a several year exercise in futility. In 2023 I was sized (A Bra That Fits calculator) at a 32H/I UK, and tried this bra based on my poor understanding of the size. It was much too small then and I definitely needed a larger cup size (I ordered a 32G..what was I thinking?)

Fast forward to 2 years ago and I had a reduction, and am now a 32F/30FF UK sizing. I tried again, and settled on re-trying the 32G. The fit was perfect! Given that these bras are designed for narrower roots with more projection, I cannot imagine just how projected I was before. Now I'm center/bottom full with some density but soft upper tissue. The breasts are perfectly supported and the wires are exactly where they should be...not too high in the armpit and definitely not too far back. The lace is stretchy enough, smooth enough, and gives a beautiful rounded teardrop shape. It's also low cut enough to be suitable for most scoop necklines. I now have 4 pairs of EM bras and 2 more on the way. Cannot recommend them enough, and am super satisfied with the service.

Great bra, once I got the size right!

I absolutely love this model of bra and have three of them. Two nude and one black. It did take several returns to find the right size. My usual is 34F, which is 80 F in the BRAND SIZING (not American sizing). My favorite bra by far.

I love this bra!

I love this bra! Not only does it hold everything up well, it manages to make me look thinner in the process because my boobs are not pushed underneath my arms.

Finally, a bra that fits perfectly!

I absolutely love this bra! It is so hard to find a bra that fits properly and gives amazing support when you have natural large breasts, but a small band. I cannot tell you how many different bras I have tried, I almost gave up, but decided to try Miseczki. I used their measurements guide to have them tell me the size to get and used their suggestion of upping the band and lowering the cup 1 size, since I am used to US bras. When I tried the bra on, it fit like a glove! No spillage, no side boob poking out, no sagging. I was shocked! This is the best fitting bra I have ever had and it is so pretty too! If you are nervous about trying another bra, don’t be, this bra is the one!

Lift and More

This bra is THE bra. I have always looked for a bra that could hold me up and stay in place! This bra does exactly that. The cleavage from the bra is also amazing. My absolute favorite part is the underwire construction. The wire is not digging into my armpit, the placement is perfect. Getting the sizing right was a little tricky, but I messaged customer service and Karina gave me excellent guidance and helped me find the perfect fit. If you have a larger chest, PLEASE do yourself a favor and get a bra from this brand. My girls have never looked better!

Truth in advertising! Amazing fit & quality

Superior Quality, Does what it claims to do, size up 1 band

I was reluctant to order without trying on and concerned having so many seams in the cups would show thru my blouses. What I found was impeccable quality. These are so well made. Very soft. No show thru. Dense elasticity without pinching. Lift and projection with no spillover. Cups that don't climb out of the neckline of my top. I was fairly confident with my band and cup size having tried a number of manufacturers with European sizing...WRONG. I did need to size up my band. My new bands arrived today and are perfect fit. I have a narrow ribcage, wide set bust and teardrop tissue. In these bras my breasts are contained, gathered forward and lifted off my ribcage without pressure on my shoulders. I do have some bulging of my lats in the back which was minimized when I adjusted the strap length but it is not visible with my top and I wear body skimming clothing. I ordered the 2 other styles and other colors, please with all. The cups are 3 dimensional on the under bust with elasticity in the band on the top of the bust, so there are no seams showing. The lace is so soft and with stretch it also does not show thru which is very important to me and who I've chosen molded cups and t shirt bras in the past. These are going to be very durable I can tell.

First bra that truly fits!

I have a lot of immediate projection and need very narrow wires - and this bra absolutely delivers on that! It’s the first bra I’ve worn that doesn’t inch down in the front as the day goes on and actually supports me from the band. Gore has a soft tack instead of a hard tack for me, but I don’t think that would be fixed by sizing up a cup as it fits fine all around. I’ll absolutely be buying more EM bras in the future.

I am usually a full UK 32G (US 32I) and ordered this in a 75/34G - I probably could have gone with a 70/32G with an extender, but am glad that I sized up a band!

new everyday bra

It's sooooo comfortable! The bra is nearly weightless and holds everything in place without squeezing, the straps and band fit great and don't dig in uncomfortably. It is the most comfortable bra I've ever worn and I ordered it in beige, too!

very comfortable

This is my first bra in ~4 years, and the first time since I was a preteen that a bra fit properly! I look forward to putting it on in the morning and getting the proper support. The underwires don't dig into my pits or sit too far back, and the center part isn't so wide it makes my breasts sit uncomfortably apart. Love the optional Y strap for some added sexiness, too! I've ordered a few more styles but this is one of my favorites!

I can't say enough good things about this bra - it's beautiful, well fitting, and comfortable. I wanted to find a bra with good lift - and the fit exceeded my expectations. Karina from customer service was very helpful in helping me find my correct size.

Quality, quality!

I mean - there isn’t a single bra from this website that hasn’t been the highest quality. I love the underwires of Ewa, they don’t stab me in my armpit like almost every other bra in existence. It also brings my breasts forward, instead of off to the side. The colorway of this bra is just gorgeous! I wish this one wasn’t ending, but hopefully Miseczki will carry more styles. I would love to try PLM style. Overall, top notch! Wouldn’t order it any other place either.

My first order for a bra online, it was a perfect fit and it looks even better on! Very soft and comfortable, I am so pleased with everything related to this company! Their bras are beautiful and worth every penny 🙂

YES

This bra is beautiful, high quality, and all around fits amazingly. The wires fit to my breast shape and the bras straps don’t dig in. It’s nearly perfect and I can’t believe how long it took me to find out about this brand. Not only that but this shop makes it easily accessible for Polish brands and the return process is so easy. It’s small and I love supporting small businesses- TRY IT.
