I've always loved the Ginger print, but because I read that the deep plunge is wide and shallow, I ordered it in a 3HC which seems to suit my shape (full-on-top and centre, really narrow, projected). The print isn't as great in person in my opinion, because I was expecting whiter cups than the nude I got (luckily it dines't feel like grandma). But the 3HC shape suits me a lot. The only thing is I asked for a lowered gore for comfort for my SUPER close-set boobs, and it opens up the centre, making my soft tissue spill out, and my nipples are at the edge of the cup (lol). It's not tooooo bad though, since the lift is the best I've ever got, and the wires sit on all of my centre, underboob and side IMF SO perfectly, I feel like they came at night to 3D scan my boobs lol. Because of the spillage issue, it sounds like a 60HH would be better, but I'm also afraid that the wires will be too wide. I guess I'll ask for a deeper cup alteration the next time I get a 60H. For reference I wear 28F in UK sizes. Contrary to a lot of reviews, I don't think you have to size up in the band for Comexim. In my opinion the band runs true to size.

This bra is not owned any more

  You could also ask for raised cups along with the lowered gore if the depth at the bottom is ok.

  cupandahalf Thank you for your suggestion! The depth felt fine, I just feel like I need more coverage to my boobs don't go everywhere lol. I didn't know raised cups is a thing, so I'll definitely ask for that the next time I order from Comexim!

  immodestmouse This is the only bra I have that fits so maybe not now :( Maybe I will when I have something to replace it. But I have ordered a 65G Mint plunge with the Ginger and I'm intending to sell that.

• You ordered an overlapped gore, right? That helps for my close set boobs. I get them with the gore overlapped and stronger wires, and the gore stays in place much better and mostly keeps my boobs separated but also gives me pretty easy cleavage over the course of the day.

• (Also Comexim is a bit of a crapshoot in terms of bands... I think the last few bras I've ordered have consistently been more TTS than before, making me start to consider ordering a 65 instead of my usual 70 with them. But other users are just being honest about the bras they've received -- and it does also seem to be different in different size "zones".)

• rainbrasspetals I didn't order an overlapped gore, but it was done, although only the highest part of the wire is overlapping because the gore was already low. Do you think stronger wire would cause more discomfort on the ribs? I have a "bony" ribcage so I'm worried they'll be in pain if the wires are stronger.
  I agree that maybe Comexim are starting to make their bands more TTS, because I ordered another 65G and it was much too big for me.

• I've never yet met a bra with wires hard enough to be uncomfortable. I really only noticed that Panache had hard wires when I used to put bras on backwards and upside down, then twist them around and flip them up (Panache made a nasty CRACK sound as it whipped up and slapped my breastbone).

  So I'm not a good judge, but I do think that Comexim's stronger wires are still on the soft end.

  I think they run out of the original Ginger fabric. Today I reveived my Ginger 3hc and it has the same print as yours. The flowers are bigger and the fabric is more yellowish beige and less white than the original fabric shown in the pictures on the website. Personally I am happy about it, because the color of the new fabric suits my skintone better. I bought this bra to wear under light-colored clothes.

• Jetje I was expecting a lot of people using Ginger as a nude bra, so the print change is probably good for them! I've also worn them under white shirts, but the beige is still somehow visible. I just don't want to feel like grandma lol

• I understand. This bra isn't suitable for sheer white tops and T-shirts because of the lace. You can only wear those plain nude (in the perfect tone) bras under these tops and T-shirts. Not the prettiest bras, but we do need one ;-) This isn't my favorite Comexim bra, but I do think it is a pretty bra compared to a lot of other lacy nude bras. Also the fit is great.
