Sleep Top Nina in 65K
This bra is added for data purposes only.
Original review from October 2017 when I first got the bra:
Nina is a “Sleep Top” or lounge bra. It doesn’t have wires, and does not separate the breasts. It’s mainly black with light pink accents. I ordered it in 65K because Ewa was not willing to make it in 60KK, and I figured for sleep/lounging, the looser band wouldn’t be an issue.
The band measures 23.5” to a max stretch of 31.5”. It is a front closure with 14 hooks and 1 (yes just one) row of eyes. This doesn’t add much for flexibility on ... fit.
The cups are more like hills within meadowlands with very little definition. Without wires or more defined cups, the breasts are pushed together. While there’s not much for measurements with this set up, I can tell you that the height at the center of the “cup” was 10.5” and that the wing was 6.75” with 9” at the gore or hooks.
The straps have a limited range, and the quality I found to be lacking, particularly in regards to the stitching.
As for fit, I did not find this supportive enough, but I think that has more to do with the band than it does with the lack of defined cups. My biggest issue was that the sides are too tall under the armpit, and by morning I had painful red marks in and around my armpit. This could also have been acerbated by the loose band, but overall I just don’t see me attempting to wear a second time without shortening the band and lowering the wing.
Update June 2018:
I had attempted to modify this bra several months ago by taking in the back to make it more like a 28. After this alteration the band measured 22.4” and stretched to 30.5” max. I also lowered the armpit area so the wing was 6” afterwards. This was still not an ideal fit and less than comfortable, so I never wore it. It also didn’t work well with my Isavela sternum bras, which I prefer to wear at night to help combat those chest wrinkles caused by age and side sleeping.
Update; Nov 2018 I have pulled this one back out of storage and do now wear it on occasion. It isn't terrible and is a nice break from my other night tops. I added new photos for current fit.

The band is firm; I can feel it prominently on my rib cage. That said, it is holding my very large, heavy breasts fairly ‘up’, and I am sitting up, not sleeping! I wear a 32H in most bras (UK size) and I think this is quite comfortable for lounging, or even for errands out of the house. The shape for me is super round and mono boobed, like a sports bra, and style-wise, this isn’t to my taste. But all told, it’s the best I’ve found, comfort-wise, given my large size.

currently this size fits me best, but I wear 70HH and 70J with varying cleavage/quadding lol. Its a bit frustrating, I get cleavage and/or quadding on these sizes, but if I try to wear an actual bra in a comparable size its so full coverage... -_-' youd think this style bra would squish my boobs to the sides more than a wired bra would.

I suppose my boobs grew again because I started quadding in this and I get cut in half in my 70H nina. I get pretty good cleavage the Ninas with a size down. It reminds me of the victorian/corset type cleavage.

I bought this for my mom. But she has some form of arthritis and she has problems putting it on. So I'm going to return it.

I wore this one last night, and my husband says it's my small boob bra, because it makes my boobs look smaller apparently!
