Need guidance getting my best Comexim size

I've read a few different methods for figuring your uk to comexim bra size but I keep getting inconsistencies! Here are my measurements and I hope a comexim expert can lead me in the right direction...

Underbust, exhale, snug: 26 very tight: 25 inhale: 27-28 (I like tight bands)

Bust, standing: 32 leaning: 33.5

So in uk size I am like 28dd/e or ideally 26e/f

Shape: shallow, even, tall roots, very close set

I want to order a full cup or half cup or balconette, no plunges.

Thank you ladies! =^.^=

  • Yogurt- we are close in size but have different shapes. I usually wear a 28F or 26FF in UK bras and measure 25" snug underbust, 33" standing/lying and 34" leaning. My breasts are projected with short, narrow roots, though. My best Comexim size is 55HH or 60H. Based on that, I think your best size would be 60F or G. Comexim is best suited to projected breasts as opposed to shallow ones, as far as I can tell. The plunges seem shallower though.

  • I could be wrong but my recollection is people usually say Comexim has pretty soft wires. This means you can't really get an optimal fit beyond a certain level of band tightness because the wires will distort too easily. You can probably try and squeak by with a slightly too tight one by choosing an oversized cup (the cup will be pulled laterally so it will fit shallower than the designer intended while the pulled-out wires will buy you more band length on every inhale). But you don't want to go beyond a certain point if that makes any sense.
