I am still in search for a perfectly fitting bra. Several fitting help suggestions were that I try the Polish bras. I'm short, 5'1" and short waisted .
My tight rib cage is 26.5, comfortable 27.5 and loose is 29.5.
Horizontal perimeter 12.5 and Laying perimeter 11.3. I have touching boobs, so gore is an issue.
28GG is a pretty close fit although so far all the bras I've tried have been too wide in the cups and wrinkle under the arms .

So when I look at comexim or Ewa I'm thinking a 60J is what I need (28.10)
But the depth is way under what I need 9.5-10 is the depth I'm seeing in 60J. Has it been your experience that
you have to go to a much larger cup to get depth or does a narrower cup change the amt
of depth I need?

  • A little bit of both. I suggest 60GG or 65G in Ewa, who uses UK cups and scaling, and 60K in Comexim. Comexim's cups are EU and scaled up by 2cm instead of 1." So most people, especially in the larger sizes, need to go up another cup. Also, with narrower wires, cup depth isn't "wasted" at the sides of your boobs and you can indeed find at times a measured smaller cup depth works in a cup that has narrower wires vs a cup with wider wires because the depth starts closer to your roots. Also, if you're very projected, especially immediately projected, I highly suggest Ewa's CH/P cuts and Comexim's 3 part half cups. Those are the 2 bras from both brands that offer the most immediate projection. The gores are very narrow in both brands, but if you're very close set it may not hurt to ask Comexim to make the cup with overlapping wire channels to make the gore as narrow as possible. Ewa won't alter a damn thing so don't bother asking her lol.

  • Thanks. I think I'd like to start with something I can return, so I'll probably not order directly from the company the first time. Once i figure out fit, then I might try to go for altered gores.
