Vogue Purple is a wired longline bralette with half cups sewn onto the bottom of the cup. I ordered this one as a regular band instead of a longline. These half cups are shorter than their regular half cups. There is elastic sewn onto the lace that covers the cup and extends upwards toward the strap. This forms a triangle shape when viewed from the back.

I love the shape and colour of this bra. It’s hard to think of this as a bralette because of the wires. The band is supportive and stretches to 28”. The top is not as supportive as a regular bra due to the short half cups and lace. I get a little bit of jiggle while walking. The lace over the cups is extremely tall, so the bows that are supposed to be on top of the shoulder are actually on my back. This is visible on Comexim’s stock photo as well. The shape works really well with the natural shape of my breasts, this design is great for short or shallow roots. My only issue with the bra is that the elastic on the lace is cutting into my larger breast.

I love this bra. I think I might order this one again in 60O with shortened front lace.

This bra is not owned any more

  So look purdy and comfortable looking too! This is the second review I have seen on this "bralette" and I really want one. I hope they make other half cups as short as these half cups. I do very well with shorter cups.

• Omg. Jj is there anyway all these extra comments of mine can be deleted? I'm so sorry everyone. I have no idea how it happened.

  RIP my inbox! :)

  These half cups are a bit too short, half of my nipple is showing on the larger side, but it might just be because it's slightly too small.

  Well Sovavosi hopefully Jj can remove all of them!
  And, in order for a cup to threaten to show my nipples it would have to have a cup height shorter than 3.5"! I could probably wear a cup height of 3" and only have some areola peaking out. Most cups that are considered low coverage tend to be full coverage or average coverage on me. If I ever get enough confidence to order from Comexim direct, I will always order shortened cup heights.

• Comexim generally doesn't shorten half cups, just FYI. You can ask them but they might not do it. How are you with open top cups? It's really tough to tell from the models. If it is closed you might not need to shorten it.

• I don't think I've tried any open top cup bras yet, most have been full coverage, moulded or plunge. Although this skarlett Blue bra might be considered an open top bra: http://bra.pe/XYBo/
  I'm certainly fond of them. I pretty much have all the center fullness.

  I can't tell from photos ever... Open cups are where they don't curve back toward your body. I can't wear them because they end up being too tall. If you buy a half cup in your size and the cup depth feels correct but looks too big because of top gaping, it might be too open on top for you. So you might have to email Comexim first to ask them how the top is before you order from them.
