Alterations: Reduced cups, straps moved in, cookie pockets, 1 cm extra depth at the wire. The first three were done, unsure about the extra depth. But since this fits better than my Lavender with reduced cups only, I think they did add 1 cm—or maybe it's because this cut is less closed than the other plunges.

This is almost perfect, but since I requested the same alterations on two other bras that don't fit (one actually ended up smaller than the first iteration with reduced cups only), I'm not exactly hopeful that this can be replicated. I'll just be satisfied that I finally got the cute bra-print bra, on ... the fourth try. I've basically been doing all these trials for the bra and bird prints 😂

I really love Comexim, but the hit or miss alterations are getting to me. Especially since I've had three Avocado orders in a row that were pretty great, not always the *perfect* fit bc I need the shortest bras, but all wearable and fancy.

I've been all over the place on what to do, but I think I'm probably better off sticking with 55J 3HC, maybe with extra depth at the wire, to minimize disappointments or—if I ever want to take another chance (probably not lol)—55J plunge with reduced cups (13.5-14 cm cup height seems to be my sweet spot), straps moved in, reduced gore.

Or I'll just shop around some more until I can find a sure thing, because I do like the less cake-y shape of the plunge. I asked about the Ewa Michalak S today, and it seems like the cup height is similar to the Comexim reduced cup plunges in this size range, so maybe I'll try that sometime. Wide-set straps might be worth it for a consistent cut.

Update: Ewa Michalak S starts at 55G. I think that might be too large for me, but I'll keep it in mind.

I told myself I wasn't going to try any more Comexim bras, but I thought having a bra print bra was too hilarious to pass up. I ordered the Adele from Breakout Bras in a 32K (Bratabase auto-converted to 70O). This bra seems to run larger in the cup than my 70O - Comexim » Piume Blu (CMPIUMEB) and 70O - Comexim » Miss Bee-have Half Cup 3hc bras. There is massive gapping in the cups at the center and some near the strap, and the gore doesn't come anywhere close to tacking no matter how much I swoop and scoop. I tried on my Piume Blu to see if maybe I had just gotten smaller recently, but it still fits me about the same as before. I'm not sure why there is such a difference between the Adele and the Piume Blu in the exact same size and cut.

This is one that I got from another user here. I’ve wanted this style for a while, and it was a good price. I was curious about the fit and my weight loss this year. I’ve lost about 15 pounds and about 2” off of my over bust. It’s pretty used but, still in pretty good shape, I think. It’s hard to say exactly how much wear it has compared with a brand new one though.

Given the initial measurements, I had thought it might fit but, it was possible that it would be too big based on how my other Comexim bras fit me right now. Sadly, ... this fits in the too big category. I’m trying to figure out if it’s from wear or if it’s just this big on me now. I’m thinking that my best bet would be to get a 65H or 70G in it, and I might do that from Breakout Bras because it is super cute. Unless I can exchange it with someone else…

The colour and print are super cute but even if the straps are pretty tight, it’s still gaping. Looser straps and I can put my fist in the cup on my smaller side. I suppose reduced cups and gore would fix it but,
I think just the size down will be enough.

I might post a fit check and gage information from people…

Reduced cups 2cm, straps moved in, reduced gore 1cm. I ordered one plunge and one 3HC, but received two plunges, great lol.

The cup height is about 1cm shorter than the reduced cup 55J Rozalia I tried and about 0.5cm taller than my reduced cup 55HHs. So maybe the default reduction is 1cm and I should always request 2cm?

It's about 1cm deeper than my 55HHs (which are wearable, but I feel a little smushed by the end of the day). This size is a true fit for me, which means I should have gotten cookie pockets to pad my smaller side, so I'll probably only wear it on larger days and remember to request cookie pockets in the future.

Bought from Breakout Bras 28GG/60J. Center gore was already sewn together.

Too wide for me and not enough projection. I could feel the underwires hit me near my underarm. It was a bit uncomfortable.

I'm very close-set, center-full, fuller on bottom, tall-ish roots, and average to wide roots.

Looks really nice and cleavage-y on, with a nice rounded but natural shape. It's slightly shallower than what I should be wearing so it's slightly minimizing. Almost but not quite overflowing on the bigger side. No wrinkling or gaps anywhere in the cups. The wing and side of cup is shorter than I'd like and I would prefer a 3-hook instead of a 2-hook for more support all around, also the narrow band at closure digs into my band a bit. The gore tacks perfectly and is a nice height and narrow width for my ... close set girls.

I would get this style again but modified with a 3-hook closure and maybe slightly higher wing height.

Color is more striking in person than I thought it would be. It's a beautiful creamy nude contrasted with cute boobylicious black pattern and straps that really just pop, making it a very fun cool, fresh design that works even on my pale yellow-beige skin. The fabric is soft, silk-satiny and comfy. I love it.

Ah, a width that finally fits my narrow roots! I followed the reccomendations to size up twice in the cup for comexim, and it was too much for me. That may be a shape mismatch though, I'll likely order it in H or GG and give it a try, I'd love for this to work for me since for once I'm not getting stabbed in the armpit!

I bought this bra during Comexim's 2021 Black Friday Sale along with Ardea and Adele.

pertinent info
Ribcage: 31 inches
Bust: 36 - 37 inches
I have asymmetry with my left side being the bigger. FOB. Not entirely sure about roots but I think narrow. Close set.

bra Appearance
Another very cute print from Comexim! Adele is a tan colored bra with an all over bra and flower print. The straps and hardware is black and so are the bows.
Alterations - none.

fit
After reading a lot of reviews, I sized down in the plunge. The bra fits for the most part. Much like the other two bras I reviewed, the band ... is tight. I should have gone with a 70. There is also gaping on both cups mostly toward the center. I'm not entirely sure if there is a shape mismatch with plunges or if any alterations would make a difference. The gaping is a bit noticeable under shirts. The right cup also feels too big because it felt like it was in my armpit. The wires do encapsulate all the tissue so sizing down was a good choice. The volume is correct. The gore tacks.

thoughts
Much like the other bras, while the volume and wire widths are A+, there is gaping at the top of the cups which leads me to believe that sizing down could fix the issue. I do have asymmetry so it might be worth trying to fit the smaller size and deal with muffining rather than deal with gaping. As I mentioned before, I really wish I live near a bra store to assess fit issues.

after washing
the bra fits well after washing. I think the bra slides down which eliminates the gaping on my bigger side. I'm not really bothered by it and like the shape it gives under clothes.

Adele. Black bras on cream fabric colorway

Updated on Mar 10, 2022 Flag this

One of my favorite Comexim bras. The fabric is so soft and I feel like the cups are less rigid than some of the other models. Band is too big now after weight loss, though. Straps are maybe a touch wide and the gore definitely sat a bit on my breast tissue but it seems like virtually every bra is going to do that unless I have alterations done. Overall I just love this bra.

The apex projection is great and the print is super cute. The cups are too tall though. I would try this is a 55HH with reduced cups, maybe with straps moved in, and hopefully those alterations won't affect the depth too much.

I've heard that the plunges are narrower than the half cups, but the cup width of this is the same as the 60H Onyks. So maybe they're similar in my size range or I'm measuring wrong. Since the wires are soft, it doesn't bother me that they're a smidge wider than I need.
