Clara, Clara, Clara….so much to say about you, and so much love for you.

Clara is extremely beautiful, and quite nostalgic for me actually. My first Comexim was a Victoria 3HC which exhibits a similar vibe with the navy lace and beige lining. While the Victoria was accentuated with eyelash lace details and the band in the shimmery beige, Clara maintains the navy band, and is accented with the scalloped lace over the cup edge. Personally, this is way more my aesthetic as I never felt too strongly about eyelash lace. This is overall a more navy lace bra than Victoria. Admittedly, while I have adored Clara since ... her reveal, she means even more to me now as I am in Pilates teacher training, and Clara was the name of Joseph Pilates’ wife.

This is the first 70G plunge from Comexim that I have tried, as I was 65HH for a while, lost weight and was a 70F (barely), and now with some weight gain back, I am on the edge of the 70G. For Clara, the G is adequate, as it is a little bit roomier than the other 70G I got. This one has a noticeably taller gore, which is a bit twisty…not the end of the world, but it’s floating as a result. This one has 4 columns of hooks and is perfect. The cup height is pretty spot on, and while I have a little gapping on my small side, it’s by the gore…so if it sat more flush or was shorter, I imagine that would be resolved. Straps are ok, but I would like to have them moved in still. Cup width is right at my root edge. A cup size larger would be too tall, but gained a bit more side coverage, but I followed the sizing suggestions from Breakout Bras to go one size up for soft tissue. This means that it is a little bit less side coverage. The only way to fix this is to customize the fit, but it’s still quite sufficient for an unaltered bra. I really love love love this bra. It makes me want to do a boudoir photo shoot.

I debated what size bottoms to get, and I chose the medium. The medium fits but having tried the next bra I got in medium and large, the larger size is a bit more comfortable with more rear coverage. They are both good, just different.
