Didn't fit
So this is my first try at Comexim, but I am already certain I will be buying/investing in more. This bra is heavenly! The design is nude, very basic which is what I wanted to try out first so I would be able to see what needs to be adjusted for the true fit.
The band is snug. It stretches a lot more than I thought it would, and so it leaves plenty of elasticity room. It didn't budge at all during wearing, and wasn't itchy even though the borders are thick lace. The band is also very wide and comfortable; I felt it kept in my back fat/tissues in the area quite well and I didn't feel any irritation.
The straps are great overall. I have a small issue with how wide set they feel on my shoulders, so I had to keep readjusting, but they're not itchy and don't dig into my sensitive skin. I truly haven't had such a pleasant experience with straps like this!
As for the cup.. It gapes for me in the middle and areas where the straps connect at the front. There's a slight folding of the padding under my breasts but it's barely noticeable compared to the top. I'm not sure if that's a sign of one size too large, or too small. However I can't feel the gaping, I just see it, so it looks a bit off under smooth clothing (although overall this isn't a grand problem for me). The cup itself is smooth and soft, the padding is minimal and doesn't force your breast into an awkward look.
The underwires- they're narrow, which is the most wonderful feeling on my ribcage in years. I have had problems with underwires being far too wide in my UK bras, even Freya, where they poke and stab into my armpit and tender skin all day until I have sores. These underwires sit nearly perfectly in my tail of Spence and I literally feel nothing but snug support all day. I think the sizing is perfect for me. However I did notice (probably due to cup size issue) that the middle regions under both breasts do have a bit more pressure from the underwire. It's not uncomfortable per se but there was a heavier feel and red marks lasted a little longer there. I feel that the underwire under the breasts was trying to push its way a bit down out of my IMF but that's also possibly due to how I was going about my day.
OVERALL. This bra is amazing. It's the best one in my new collection so far and I intend to buy more. This is a plunge however so I'm not sure if it conforms well to my breast shape/type but I'll probably experiment along the way and see if I can make some alterations. Either way, Comexim really pulled me in!
