    Surprisingly comfortable bra, I think I chose to return it though, based on the fact that I was expecting a non-padded bra - this is a “semi soft” which I had never heard of before
    As I recall it was quite pretty but at the time I did not think a bra should be THAT open. I’m very short so I can’t really fill out the top on most bras. I’m still not sure if it’s supposed to look like that when fitted properly. It’s hard to judge though as the pictures of it on various websites show ladies with FoT breasts that fill it out no trouble.
    Maybe the lift is not good enough? So far I’ve had this shape in Curvy Kate, Nessa and Ewa Michalak.
    Overall seems like a really comfortable and good quality bra.

  3. Laguna Soft

    SO GLAD to have a bra this blue. The first and most important thing about this bra is the PERFECT COLOR: A super-saturated Crayola-cerulean blue!! In 65M EU (30HH UK)! With projection that works for my super-projected boobs! I could cry.
    The embroidery is very Polish bra to me. It's everywhere. It's ornate. The spiraling, vaguely floral embroidery is almost exactly the same as the embroidery on 65L - Nessa » Iris Soft. The only difference is that on Laguna there are actually flowers, though they are understated.

    As far as fit, this bra's band is stretchier than Iris Soft. At first I didn't think I would be ... able to fasten it, because I am in between a 32 and 30 band size. But after trying the bra on with an extender, I was able to fasten it without one no problem. I think that the band will stretch enough to fit me without any caveats within a month. The cups are a perfect fit for me. I think I could also swing a 65N in this bra, which I might try out later on for Nessa Valerie.
    The cup size and shape are just spot on. Perfectly perfect. There is enough projection for me (me!! With my special long boobs!). Straps don't feel like they're threatening to fall off of my shoulders. Underwires do not stab or extend too far back. With my narrow shoulders, petite frame, and narrow boobs, Ewa Michalak does not do all of this for me. But Nessa does, apparently? I'm in love. And my boobs are very well-supported.

    Under a shirt, this bra holds my boobs up really high. It makes them Cleo-ishly round, very spherical. The bra is very slimming, I think because of the sheer height of the lift. It reminds me of the first time I put on an Ewa Michalak bra, because it holds my boobs at a right angle to my torso. However, unlike an Ewa Michalak on me, this bra is *very* effective at totally reducing bounce. And the projection of the cups somehow does not translate into boobs that stick out for miles -- again, in contrast to Ewa Michalak bras and others with deep cups.

    My shape: soft tissue, FOB, narrow shoulders

    This is a really well made bra and is a lot cuter in person than the pictures show. The embroidery is beautiful!
    I ordered it from Tina at Aphrodite's Closet in Texas. She is super nice, quick to reply, and very knowledgable about Polish brands.
    As far as fit, I had to take in the straps and the elastic along the armpit edge. These are a lot wider set even than Ewa Michalak bras. After the surgery, however, it fits me a lot better.
    There isn't stretch lace on this model, so I was worried it wouldn't lay flat along the top edge. I was pleasantly surprised when it did.
    The wires aren't as U-shaped as other Polish brands.
    Overall, this is a nice Polish brand, but I prefer Ewa Michalak.

    65H

    Didn't fit

    This is a very, very pretty bra.
    The quality is top notch and the materials are very soft.
    It's very light, but very supportive.
    3 sets of 3 hooks on a band that's pretty TTS - I.e. just a little looser than a Ewa M. 65.

    The wires are more narrow than a UK bra, but definately not as narrow as an EM...you can see that in this size, I have more than 1.5 cm extending empty out towards my armpit.

    The cups are projected and I get very little wrinkling at the bottom...however, I get wrinkling at the top of the cup, so it's too big.

    I doubt that a G cup would fit me. If I go down a size to fill the top of the cup, I won't have enough depth.

    Back it goes (I'll add measurements to Db though. I also have size 65I in hand)

    • This is simply gorgeous April. I'm sorry it didn't work out.

    • That looks really nice. I can't see the wrinkling though.

    • Sovavosi look at the 2nd side photo

      I saw that. IMO that doesn't count. I don't believe it's supposed to be so full to the point of bursting.

      I love this print. If you are concerned about the top wrinkle, a couple of stitches at the top of the gore can snug that in without distorting any of the lines of the bra itself. Well worth the minimal effort on such a beautiful bra!

    • 1

      I agree with Sovavosi. I think it looks great on you, but if you aren't happy with the fit then there's no reason to keep it.

      I loved it, but not like ga ga ga over it but I am not desperate for bras and I know how good a bra can fit (my Ewa BMs) so I sent it back. Now, if it was a padded with a fit that close, it would be in my drawer :P

      Ewa ruined us all for other bras, hasn't she? Haha!

      That is really lovely. Sorry the fit wasn't ideal.

    Moly 65M
    I am adding this bra for data/informational purposes only. This Bra is not owned by me at the time of addition to the database.

    Moly is an unpadded bra by Nessa in a black and white pattern with black lace tops. While it is labeled as checkered, it is really black circles that touch on a white background, or white concaved diamonds on a black background. This one has the standard 3 sections to the cup.

    The band measures 24” to a max of 30.5” and has 3 hooks and 3 rows of eyes.

    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”

    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.

    My shape: Projected, narrow, shorter roots, even/functionally full on bottom, soft tissue. Cleo Lily fits me best.

    The band and cups fit true to size (30G UK), but the wires are much too wide for me. The gore tacks very hard on me, and I get a very small amount of an upside down seven shape. Pity; this bra is quite pretty.

    This bra is considerably bigger in cup volume and slightly bigger in band than the non-padded Nessa bras are. Its wires also come higher up under the arms. It's very well made and sturdy, but in my opinion it seems to add a bit of bulk to my boobs, so I avoid using it under thin shirts. It's very comfortable on, however. The fabric is really soft and the colour is great. A good everyday bra, gives an understated, neutrally round profile.

    Updated on Mar 31, 2017 Flag this


    • can you compare the size of this bra to any British bra yo may be wearing. I am trying to figure my size in Polish brands

    • Hi nadiya! The cup volume in Bella is exactly as in the Freya Strawberry Fields bra in 32HH, the band maybe slightly looser. Also it's almost similar to Curvy Kate Smoothie in 30J, also with the band being stretchier. The Smoothie also has considerably wider wires. The non-padded Nessas have a firmer band, so keep this in mind when considering your band size.

    • thank you so much for your answer. I was hopping Nessa will work for me, but will probably not. I Am 30K in Panache Jasmine, that I find has fuller cup than Freya or Curvy Cate (only few I tryed). I was 30HH 28J in Cleo before second pregnancy (freya was smaller). That means that even if size up to 70N in Nessa, cup will still be too small. Oh thank you again

    The size that was shown on Brastop for this bra is 36F, and that seems accurate. The bra looks very nice, with the stretchy satin and the lace. The inside of the cups is lined with a soft cotton(like) material, the cups are narrow. The shape it gives is quite pointy though, it could be either because it's too shallow at the bottom of the cup, or just because it's much too small.

    I am familiar with Nessa as I'm a retailer and discovered them late 2015. I test new styles as they come out so that I can offer feedback to my clients. This bra is not only supportive, it's very pretty and delicate looking. The cups are not scratchy and everything for me falls right into place in @34FF. While it's cut very similarly to @Nessa's @Tatuaz, I do not experience the slight gapping in @Sawa at the top of the cup near the straps where the cup seams meet. The band is much more comfortable and I probably won't need an extender to break it in. It's much prettier in person. The fabric that the cups are made of is a sheer nude but the embroidery is actually white and peach. It looks amazing. The wires are narrow enough-but not too narrow-for me. Great fit.

    The top part is made of a non-stretch tulle with black embroidered flowers. The tulle is so pale/pink so when worn, it practically disappears such that the flowers look like they are almost tattooed on my chest. (edit I just looked up the translation for Tatuaz- it means tattoo!) The bottom embroidery is different, almost a damask stitch but complements the top embroidery beautifully and is double lined. The band is firm but not constricting. In my opinion, it is just the right tightness, as I prefer my bands to give me a nice firm hug. My breasts fill out the cups nicely, and after Scooping, swooping ... and smoothing, everything falls in place just fine. I have perfect tack and the gore does not dig in. This particular cup is 11" deep (I measured it while I had it on since it fit so well) and about 11.25" long and the width of the cup is about 6-1/8". The gore is 3-3/8" tall and is a good height for me. The band is 27" and stretches to about 31" (I didn't get all crazy stretch lady on this beauty!) It looks well-made, hook attachment piece on most bras is felt, this one, however, is microfiber. To put it simply, I didn't want to take this bra off. Not even to measure it for you guys, but I made the sacrifice. LOL I have a client who's a 36J in Ewa Michalak BM cups so as soon as she tries on the samples I'll update you all. There is a matching panty to the bra, but since it was an initial order to test bra size, I did not include them. I will be sure to get them and update you when I receive them. I'll be including this beauty in the bra drawer arsenal for sure!

    Nice design, gold and black. There's a floral pattern in the golden stripes.
    Upper part of the cups is black, overlayed with lace.

    Light foam cups, band is short but also quite stretchy. Would have preferred a wider and firmer band. Very thin straps (1cm) that can also be detached and worn as a cross back. Removable cookies in the cups.

    Nessa size 65I, sold via Brastop as a UK 30G. Seems sort of true to size, as it's too small for me (at 30GG).

    This is from my shopping trip to Poland! Feel free to send me a message if you want any more info on that. For reference, I believe that I had short, narrow roots with a very projected, omega shape. My ebst Cleo fit is the Meg/ then Marcie/Melissa.

    The band is very very snug, more so that Cleo; I will need an extender for a while. I have another Nessa model in a 75 that is too loose, so there's that Polish inconsistency for you =p

    I believe the tightness in the band is pulling the straps too tightly under my arm, as I otherwise think that the wings are ... low enough. There is a firm tack and the gore is nicely low. The cups seem a bit shallow at the gore, which contribute to a bit of an east-west-ish effect: while the shape is rounded, it isn't in your face/front and center. The straps are pretty soft and stretchy.

    The wires are wide-ish (there seems to be a bit of a outward swoosh towards the end under my armpits) and the projection is pretty good. Not enough for me, but probably for most people would be fine. The "koral" color is a warm salmon-y pink-peach and the embroidery design is fan-like. There is a strip of embroidery along the top edge of the cup that may not make this very forgiving for people with taller roots or more upper fullness.

    This bra is gorgeous!
    The vibrant teal (?) embroidery really pops - more so than in the promo pics.
    Even if it's more of a 'grown up' bra (compared to many UK brand bras with pinks and frills), it doesn't feel mature or matronly to me at all. Probably because of the sheerness of the upper part of the cups?

    The tag says 65K, at Brastop they converted this to UK 30H.
    Unfortunately this bra is too small and doesn't work for me. I don't fill out the bottom (not enough projection) and the top cuts in, giving a pointy appearance (upside down-7 shape to the max!!). Not sure about Nessa's size charts but I would consider this a UK 30G.

    Will sadly have to resell it - bye pretty teal lacey darling!

    this bra is basically perfect for me (even fullness, projected, narrow roots, wide set.) the only issue i have is the straps are a bit wide for me, and tend to slip often. the bra is a beautiful shade of green, and it is very comfortable and the quality is very good.

    Also very pretty, delicate embroidery. I wish this had a bit more projection from bottom to center of cup. The fit is pretty good, a little snug on my larger side per usual. The mesh is a little scratch to me, but I am particularly sensitive. Fun, happy bright color.

    I would say that this bra is PERFECT, that it's tailor made just to fit me... if it weren't for the wide set straps! If you are someone who struggles with constantly having straps in your arm pits, then this is not the bra for you.

    The band fits like your typical Polish band, slightly snug compared to most UK brands. I found it comfortable but if you prefer a looser feel, then you'll want to size up. The cups have lots of immediate projection at the wire, and the wire is decently narrow, though not so much as Comexim or Ewa Michalak. The lace at the top is not stretchy so not much accommodation there if you have a lot of upper fullness.

    One of the side bones popped out after a few hours of wear, sadly. But otherwise the quality of this bra seems pretty good.

Amazing depth & projection. But not Gorsenia levels of deep. Just a freaking perfectly scaled cup with adequate levels of support. Not the stupid typical thing that flattens boobs from the nips down. Should have sized up to get the width and depth I need.
