To be perfectly honest, I found this bra in the back of a drawer, and hadn't worn it in years, but I'll try and comment on it to the best of my memory.
The wires had come out, so I didn't include cup width in my measurements, as I wouldn't consider that to be fair. I was fitted into this when I was at my highest weight, but I really think that the 65 band was still a little too big then. The wires are quite narrow, and the cups are fairly deep. I suspect the wires came out of the bra because it wasn't quite the correct size, ... but I wasn't as game as I am now at calling staff out on bra fit which isn't correct.
In this size range, the bra has a 3 piece construction, with additional vertical boning in the wing. The straps are fully adjustable and fairly sturdy. An unusual, and rather nice feature, is the fact that the wire channels overlap slightly at the top, creating a narrower gore, which is good for close-set breasts. There are four columns of three rows of hooks, making a reasonably thick band.
The band hasn't stretched out that much from wear, though I was never really stretching the bra out that much. The powermesh has stayed intact, without any pulls and runs which you can sometimes get after owning a bra for a while.
I think this would be a really nice narrow, deep bra for someone who was the correct size (and liked black bras).
