With Bravissimo doing 28 bands, I jumped at the chance at trying this. I measure about a 28HH-J and I think it runs true to size. I suffer from pain during bed time and thought this might help.

Measurements:
Front Length: approx 17inches/43cm
Back Length: approx 16inches/41cm
Mid-Point Width (below cup/band elasicated area): 14inches/37.5cm
Band Clasp Thickness: approx 2inches/5cm
Band Thickness at Sides: approx 5inches/13cm
Band Thickness at Front (where bra gore normally sits): approx 9inches/23cm
Height of Elasticated Band Section at Sides + Front: 1inch/2.5cm

Fit of the Top: The top comes up higher than I expected so there's not much cleavage on show (which I like as I feel comfortable wearing it over at friends' ... or my in-law's houses). On the waist, the top is reasonably baggy but does not hang off of me and fits well; just what I want in a pj top. For reference I am a UK size 10.

Band: The un-wired band is comfortable and firm enough. The material is soft and thick and good quality - which you want for the money. There are three hooks at the back that are spaced out on a thick band. On further wearings, I think I would prefer a tighter band but, for a decent pyjama top, it is good.

Shape: Provides some uplift although the elasticated bra area has collapsed at the bottom which is disappointing. I believe that this may be because I have projected, very firm tissue and the area where is is collapsing might be too shallow for my shape (full-on-bottom). Would suit someone with softer tissue.

Straps and Wings: Nice and thick with pretty lace detail although they do seem to take weight of my breasts which, after wearing for several hours, gets a little sore but then it was not made to be worn like a day top. The straps are a bit short for me though - being non-adjustable while the wings come up high; I am of average height (about 5"6). After a few wearings, I have found it uncomfortable to wear in bed due to the short straps when lying on my side and often move the straps away.
