Hairbra

In anime, when a girl's breasts are covered by nothing but her hair, the term for that in English is "hairbra," in Japanese: kami-bura 髪ブラ.

Character: Jashin-chan 邪神ちゃん
Anime: Jashin-chan Dropkick, 邪神ちゃんドロップキック (Episode 1)

Another English term is Godiva Hair, named after the 11th century Countess of Mercia who rode a horse naked with hair covering her breasts.
