Prototype Bra...

Wow. This is an incredibly beautiful bra. Comexim makes my favorite black bras: Hibiscus, Noir, and Belle de Nuit.

This prototype bra may be available in the future. The basic cup construction is like a 3HC. And, a stretchy, supportive panel across the top of the cup will enable taller roots to sucessfully wear the 3HC.

This cup is covered with velvet-flocked, black clematis blossoms and vines on a fine black mesh over ivory, cotton-covered foam. The seams of the 3HC are strikingly accented with black fabric tape. The fine velvet-flocked, black mesh floats over these black seams. Sincerely, this creates a stunning effect. Velevet bows accent the straps and wings. The entire band is covered with the velvet-flocked clematis flowers and lined with a stronger mesh. This is a less-stretchy Comexim band. Its dimensional stability is better than that of the more stretchy Comexim bands.

If Comexim's 3HC didn't allow enough space for your upper tissue, this style may change everything. The apex in this prototype has been shifted up approximately 1.5" from the 3HC's apex position. In fact, the apex is located in the unpadded part of the bra. The cup is 1.3" taller than the 3HC. The wire is approximately 1" longer. The gore .7" taller, and the wing .3" shorter. This is an improvement for those with taller roots. Shorties, we need to cling to the original design. Here is a link comparing a 65K 3HC to this design: http://www.bratabase.com/bra/di7kp/vs/bra/dijlp/

This cut appears very similar to the Ewa Michalak SF style. If the SF works for you, this half-padded Comexim may, too.

From a volume perspective, this cup is perfect for me. My breast fills the entire cup when I position each cup individually. Because my breasts are center-full and my breast apex is located closer to the gore than the bra's apex (like 175+ other bras), this rapidly pushes out of my IMF. So, this cut is not ideal for me. No surprise.

Aesthetically, this bra is stunning. And, if you have more upper tissue than the 3HC can hold, this may be your unicorn bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />

This bra is not owned any more

  I love how Comexim is trying to meet the needs of people with all different sizes and shapes of breasts.

  How did you get your hands on a prototype?! So cool.

  Very lovely any interesting as I found the half cup to be so shallow and way short though I got a reduced cup i keep thinking if only it had some stretch lace on the upper cup I wouldn't fall out .
  confusing how they call this a 3piece half cup when it looks like a 4 piece half padded balcony bra ..

  I agree that it appears at first glance similar to the sf but the sf Isn't padded. I know her description says semi padded but nope just fabric of steel in that lower cup and stretch on the upper .

  This is interesting. I wonder what made them make a taller bra, when it seems like most people (at least here and abtf) want shorter cups.

  I have tall roots, and while I no longer ask for the cup reduction, I'd prefer shorter cups, not taller ones. I'd be so happy if Comexim made a cup that was as low as the Ewa M style.

  The 3HC has cups too tall for me to begin with, but I'd welcome more apex depth and narrower wires.

  Very cool that you got a prototype!

  Wow! Beautiful! I would definitely give this style a try!

• ennakym The amazing Jaimie at Bra Obsessed sourced this prototype.

  @Prettyncharmeuse Like you, I'd thoroughly appreciate shorter cups.

  @Ivp The bra cut title is unknown to me. Jaimie has referred to it as "hard-earned." It may well be a balcony as you suggest.

  Ivp "half-padded" rather than autocorrect's suggestion. ;-)

  It may well be hard earned surly such a lovely design was
