Why do good companies have bad sizing charts?
Out of curiosity while checking my order on Comexim I decided to look at their size chart. I wear a 70H in their plunges and their chart puts me in a 80C or D... that would be a terrible fit. It even says "it will not be possible to fasten a 70 cm bra when you have 78 cm under bust." I literally have a 78cm underbust and fasten their 70 just fine on me.
So what happened? Why do brands that seem to know the ins and outs of fit have size charts and calculators that are terribly wrong? (I know Ewa's is wrong too). They give good sizing advice when you email them but their own advice doesn't match their chart.

I don't have an answer, but I've wondered the same thing. It seems strange to try to squeeze people into matrix sizes when your size range is so much bigger. They must realize that, using those size charts, almost no one is going to fit in the smaller band and larger cup ranges....
mmmkay so that's confusing because a typical European size 70 band is not 70cm at all, unless they mean unstretched. It's more like 80-82cm. So if we assume Comexim bands all run really snug, that's still going to make their 70s stretch to about 76-78 cm. Someone at HQ struggles with math!
