Good news, bad news

So far my attempts at bra making have been flops. I’ve made about 6 and none of them have been a good fit. Too small, too shallow, funky shape, not enough space for my center fullness. BUT I have learned a lot about how bras are put together, and how changing different things changes the fit. I know have 2 Comexims from Breakout Bras that fit perfectly after I moved the straps in 2 cm. 2 cm was all it took to get the best fit I’ve ever had in a foam cut and sew bra. And amazing cleavage! The 3HC is a 36FF and the Plunge is a 34FF, so that would be 80G and 75G from Comexim directly right? And I can request the straps moved in by them.

  • While they may not be perfect, you still just sewed 6 of your own bras. Not many boob owners can claim that. Congratulations!

  • That's amazing! Hey, if you crack the code, you may be taking custom orders from here sooner than later ;-)! Out of curiosity, which Comexim patterns worked for you? I having been trying different sizes in the Plunge in the Granite Floral pattern, and can't quite hit the mark, 30JJ way small, 30KK too big, 30K still too small. BUT I ordered Piume Notte in the 30K for comparison and it fit *way* better mostly because the material is stronger. Congrats on finding two ABTF's!!
