Ewa Michalak CH Bikini and Shorts in Black

I recently posted a review of the Ewa Michalak PL Bikini in Black and now it's time for me to tell you about the CH version.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I discovered earlier this year that Ewa Michalak's swimwear would not be available on the website but instead could be ordered by email (via sklep@ewa-michalak.pl).

Ewa Michalak PL Bikini and Briefs in Black

Ever since I first discovered Ewa Michalak lingerie, I have been longing to try their swimwear.  I got all excited earlier this year when I saw pictures on their Facebook page of the new designs and couldn't wait to try them for myself.

Rixie Clip Bra Band Tightener

Since I received my Ewa Michalak 32/70 band bras a couple of months ago I have disappointingly found them to be definitely too big in the band.  I have got on much better with my 30/65 bands.  This is good news, as I seem to be getting closer and closer to establishing my true bra size, but it is also frustrating as it means I have a fair few bras which are too loose in the band for me.

Of course, the most obvious solution to this issue would be to get the bras in a smaller band size.  That's fine...but very few of us have money to burn so this isn't always an option, not in the short term at least.  So how else can we address the problem of owning a bra with too loose a band?

The most common thing to do is to alter the bra band to make it smaller.  There are various tutorials available on the internet (such as Helena's fantastic post here) which show how to do this but I am too scared to try them - hacking up my beautiful Ewas seems like sacrilege!  Surely there must be another, less permanent way?
