Mona Soft in 60P
Mona is a sheer full cup bra with beautiful embroidery on the cups in a gold and blue color. Photos do not do this one justice, as it is simply gorgeous. While the material does have a decent about of give to it, the cups do not have any stretch lace or tulle on them. Think Ewa SM style bra but with a bit more flexibility.

The quality of the materials does appear exceptional, especially for the price, and it is very well made. I did experience an oddity with mine due to the size, as they chose to use a 60I label and a sharpie to make the “I” into a P, and I can only assume it’s due to them not having the 60P label on hand. Since I ordered 3 55R and 2 60P, I had this done on all 5 of my bras (the sharpie method) which did not work so well as it is smeared on half of the bras, and altogether just has a tacky look to it. I realize that “standard” sizes would not experience this, but the larger cup sizes will. If you are like me, you will be very bothered by this, so it is worth noting. As I like proper labels on my bras, this does bother me more than it really should, haha.

In regards to measurements:

All measurements are taken prior to trying the bra on to insure no figure is obscured by the body. I also take all flat measurements before taking the stretched cup then band measurements for the same reason.

The band measures 23.5” and stretches to a max of 27.75”. It has 3 hooks and 3 rows of eye loops.

Cup Depth as measured by:
1 Hovering the cup between the knees, then placing the tape measure into the cups without any resistance.
This measurement is: 15”
2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
This measurement is: 18”

I feel these two figures give you a general idea of the minimum and maximum depth that the cup can accommodate, just like the flat and stretched band measurements do with bands. Since Bratabase only has one cup field, I enter the larger of the two, as it’s this larger number that determines if a cup is going to fit me or not since I am on the max end of the cup scale, but do realize that some may need the lower number to determine fit for their needs, so I will always include both figures in the reviews for full disclosure.

The remaining measurements are cup width 6.38” and height 10.5”, wing 6”, with the gore being 3.88” tall and 0.75” wide.

As for fit,
Yes, this one is another fit fail. The cups are 1-2 (maybe even 3) cups too large. The gore is too wide set, the wing too tall, the cups too wide, and the straps do not adjust short enough. The only thing that did fit on this bra is the band, which was comfy loose feeling in the tightest hook-set. I should be near or at high tide, so this is the fullest point of the month for me, so the fit would not improve without a lot of new growth.

The overall cup is far more spacious and rounded than my breasts could fill. To put it into perspective, I have done a photo “bra- in -bra” compare with my Comexim Chevron 60Q bra. In this comparison, you can see that the Nazeli Mona is altogether more rounded, by several inches. It is a 28:17 (60Q) vs 28:16 (60P) comparison, so the cup volume should actually larger in the Comexim by comparison. See the photos at the bottom for the compare here:

Consolidated disclaimer for all my Nazeli reviews: While each Band cup combo can experience different scaling, unfortunately in my range their scaling is obscenely wonky. My bust is 42” (106.75cm) and I ordered 55R and 60P (26:17 & 28:16) which would be my normal index range size. Nazeli size chart puts the cms for 55R=104-106 and 60P=107-109. In Ewa I wear 60KK-L which is labeled as 109-111.5cm and in Comexim I wear 60Q=104-106.

    I think you should send all your photos to Nazeli. Maybe they could use them to improve their patterns?

    It's possible. Magda could share them and communicate, but it does solve the issue with the lower cup range scaling being opposite and too small.
    They will need a lot more than a few photos to fix the scaling issues....

    Edit * it should read "does not solve the issue...."

    This bra makes me sad. It's so pretty and so... wrong.

    I agree. This one was my biggest disappointment as it is so beautiful. If I was tempted to try another, it would be this one for sure.

    This is so beautiful, and such a unique embroidery..so sad that it's so far from fitting :(

    My husband (who was a real jerk when these Nazeli's came in) just suggested we sit down together and brainstorm on how to alter them to fit....... Now I remember why I love him. 💙

  • Does this brand have a webpage? I can´t find on google. I only found a fb page. The name is a bit ... weird :)

  • Fairy79 Yep!

    You can also PM MagdaBras4you and ask for the Nazeli PDF Catalog which has additional models listed. She was able to order them for me (and several others here on BtB) and she is awesome!
