SM Yennefer is an unlined black lace bra. The cup construction in this size (60L) has 3 lower sections with 2 vertical seams, an upper section above the horizontal seam, plus an outer wedge section that connects the strap to the cup. The band is a thin sheer tulle. As with all SM style bras, the lace has no stretch to it, and not a lot of give. This provides firm support but is not very forgiving to size or hormone fluctuations, nor is it flexible if you are between sizes or have asymmetry. If you need more flexibility with fit and sizing, you are better off going ... with Ewa’s BM or SF styles instead.
I ordered this one (and two others) from MagdaBras4you whose service is impeccable.
For 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 22.5” and stretches to a max of 28.5”. It has 3 hooks and 4 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: 12.75”
2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
This measurement is: 14.5”
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.
This bra, like the SF Gladzioch Mileczna Czekolada, has an odditiy of one wire being 6.25 and the other being 6.5”. While this does not affect fit on the SF, it may be a factor on this SM as there is no stretch lace to ease the difference.
Another thing with this order is that all the straps are thin. Not thin as in narrow, but thin as depth, flimsy, lacking plushness, biting instead of padded or plush backed for comfort. In one word-cheap. Not liking these cheap thin straps, but I did notice my last Comexim order has the same thing.
As for fit, this 60L SM style bra is not the same size as my other two 60L SMs. While the depth measures small, the construction is ridiculously open on top (again compared to my other 60L Ewa bras) so I can’t fill the top of the cup on one side. The gore is 1.5 fingers off my sternum, the band is comfy on the tightest hook set, but the cups…….are off. They are too small and too big all at the same time. The lace flattens on my right side yet gapes on my left. The bottom of both cups feel constricting & squished and over full, and no amount of Swoop and Scoop redistributes this tissue. The bottom of the cups are just not as spacious as my other two SMs in this size. Yet the top of the cup on this one is more open, at least on the left side, while it is flattening on my right side. While my breasts are not perfectly symmetrical they are close enough that I never experience such a different fit between the cups.
Like with Rubin, this one just feels “off” as if it was made incorrectly somehow. One of those bras that shouldn’t have passed quality control like the ones you find at the discount retailers as a “slight second” bra. This is so disappointing, as Ewa’s products are now far from reliable. Clearly Ewa has gone downhill. Unfortunately I have another order in transit (5 bras) which I am not optimistic about. From this point forward I will be sticking to Decent Exposures bras until I can find another option. Sure DE bras aren’t sexy but they are super comfortable and consistent.

huh, i thought you had had issues with decent exposures? Maybe that was someone else. I only have 1 now, a lined lycra racerback, but its gotten pretty stretched out. i only wear it at home, in general, but if i wear it too often i get rash between my boobs. keep wondering if i want to try a velour again but - not very forgiving. I find the lycra is ok through a few sizes
