    Fits

    This is the first bra I ever custom ordered from Comexim! I've been wearing it for half a year now, and it's wonderful. Definitely my best fitting bra. I'm very happy with it, especially for a decent price! It took over a month to arrive, but I'm not complaining, given the price and quality.

    Cups: The cups are lightly padded and seamed in typical Comexim cut and sew fashion. The foam is much thinner and softer than typical molded foam cup bras, and in addition, the inside of the cups are lined with cotton. This gives it a particularly cool, soft feel that molds to your body. The ... outside of the cups are lined with a fine mesh. I'm FOB and it fits rather well - the top is not too open at all, which is often a problem for me. I have strong asymmetry so it's not perfect, but that's alright.

    Band: The band, between the top and bottom elastic, is entirely mesh, so again, it's very cool in the summer. The elastic on the band is covered by the mesh, rather than contacting the skin directly, which I really appreciate as other bras with exposed elastic irritate my skin. The bra came with 4 columns of hooks even though I didn't request this modification, which was a nice bonus.

    Straps: My straps are significantly different than the ones I've seen in pictures here and on the Comexim website. They're wider, thicker and lack a scalloped edge. Again, I didn't ask for this, but I'm super happy with the modification. Thick, velvety straps are much more comfortable and preferable to me! Also, they're fully adjustable.

    Look under clothing: This is the lowest point about this bra. Unfortunately, as with a lot of seamed padded bras, the impressions of the seams appear under thin, clingy, solid knit fabric. Oh well. I just wear it with wovens, layers, or put a camisole over it.

    60HH

    Didn't fit

    I ordered the Elena as I was in desperate need of a nude t-shirt bra. I am a little too pale for Elena to work well for this purpose, I think I need to find a more peachy option. I have been eyeing the Sonia plunge on the Comexim sight for this purpose.

    I was really pleasantly surprised with how Elena looks. From the existing bras on bratabase I was expecting a simple, nude, no-frills t-shirt bra. But girls - she's a beauty! The little black and white gingham bows on the straps and gore are adorable, and there is some nice nude lace detailing on the side ... of the bra. The material is not cotton (as I had expected) but a really lovely light, breathable power mesh. I think Elena got an upgrade!

    I ordered Elena direct in a 60HH with a narrowed gore and the straps moved in 2cms. Compared to my unaltered 60HH, these customizations were made. Yay! Unlike some other Comexim 60 bands, Elena is TTS and feels very firm.

    Sadly, even with the customizations, Elena is not a perfect fit. I think the bra is at least one size too small. I have noticeable quadding on both sides and the bottom of the cup is too shallow. I think need a 60J in this model. Sadly, Elena will have to find a new home on bratabase.

    Fits

    This is the second Comexim plunge I’ve tried. My shape: FOB, centre full, short roots. The first plunge was the Jade in 80HH. I had thought that the HH cup would be the better fit, but now I’m not so sure. With that bra, the gore doesn’t quite tack, my centre tissue pushes out and quads slightly, and I feel like my centre tissue might fall out (it hasn’t). The band feels a little tight and the sides aren’t high enough with some tissue hanging over the top. This bra resolved those issues.

    First impression when I tried on this bra was that it was way too big. However, ... once I’d properly adjusted (it’s amazing what a good swoop and scoop does), it fit quite well and almost functions like a full coverage bra for me. I have enough immediate projection, my centre tissue is contained and the gore tacks firmly. The side band is the right height and feels much more comfortable than the Jade. I have some wrinkling on the inner side and I’m not sure why but I don’t have wrinkling at the bottom of the cup which has been an issue for me. This is a good T-shirt bra as the seams aren’t visible and the neutral colour works well for me. My main issue with this bra is that the outer cup is too high but I would not want to lower the cup at the gore.

    I think that in the future I would order Comexim plunges in 80J with a lowered cup as this size feels more comfortable. However if I want more cleavage I would consider ordering a plunge in 80HH.

      Wow that's a nice fit. I think Comexim sizes up pretty gradually. I want a beige bra that fits that well!

    Elena is my first Comexim plunge bra that fit. I've lost weight since I got it, but it still fits pretty well. It was a great introduction to Comexim plunges for me and got me hooked after I kept striking out with 3HCs. The band runs tight and the apex projection is great. At the time, the wires were the narrowest I had tried and felt amazing, although I can go narrower now. Reduced cup height would probably make it perfect, so that's the alteration I'm going to go for next. There is a long story behind how I ended up with a 28G/60HH (I never expected it to fit). I've put all the details in the full review on my blog https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    Didn't fit

    Adjustments: Reduced cup height and straps moved in 2cm. Oddly enough, I had to start this on the second hook. The seams are VERY visible underneath a thinner shirt. I think the cups may be a hair too narrow, but I'm not sure. Most wires are a touch too wide for my comfort, so it may just be an issue of unfamiliarity or tissue migration. Plain, but serviceable. The gore is ALMOST narrow enough, but not quite. Still think I need overlapping wires. All and all, perfect sale bra to help me design my dream Comexim, lol

      I wonder if we could fill the seams with a puffy paint... :-)

    • The seams are very visible but i think it would be a good everyday bra. Looks like it fits you pretty good.

    About me: center full and close set, dense, narrow, projected, full on bottom with tall, gradually sloping roots.

    I get significant quad boob and my breasts push the wires/cups down so that they don't sit in my imf. That being said, it is still more supportive than a number of my other technically fitting bras. The only problem is that the wires hit in a weird spot and make my ribs sore and maybe even a bit slippy (connective tissue disorder problems). Comexim 3hc bras fit me quite a bit better.

    • If you’re quadding in it, it might be too small which makes it a bit shallow. Are you quadding in the center or all over? Have you tried loosening the straps any? I find that most bras, even projected ones, still feel like they sit 1cm lower than my imf, though the wire marks are pretty close (maybe it’s my soft tissue?) so I don’t know. Have you compared the depth of this one to your perimeter measurements? Lots of questions, sorry.

    • As I’m about the same size as you, I will mention that I take a 65HH/J or 70H/HH depending on the style and any alterations. So my thoughts above about it being too small are probably the reason why it seems shallow.

    • Calluna I believe it's too small, though I don't know if sizing up would make the cups too wide in a way that negatively affects fit.

      Now that I try pretty much only projected bras (or bras that are obviously too big or small, so I don't wear them long enough for them to migrate down), I don't have trouble with the wire being too low. Seeing/feeling with this one was a bit if a blast from the beginning of my bra fit journey.

      The quadding happens out of the top and in the center, on top especially on my larger side.

      I will compare to my measurements once I have a chance to measure it. I don't remember what I did with the straps. I'll see if loosening helps a bit.

    • Ok, cups are narrower in plunges than half cups. That said, unless you are going for the 2HC, cups are still pretty narrow in the half cup. Mine are less than 5.5” (closer to 5.25”). Feel free to look at my measurements.

    • Calluna oh!!! I missed that! Thank you. I will take a closer look.

    • Your alterations might be making it a bit shallower too, in the center. Comexim is a great brand but can definitely get challenging with the sizes and alterations. Very few people get it right on the first try. Don’t lose faith!

    • Calluna thank you for letting me know about the alterations! I got this here on bratabase, so the alterations were chosen by the original owner. I haven't gotten the courage to order directly from Comexim myself yet.

    I'm pleasantly surprised by this bra. Everyone talks about the Comexim Basic (170), so I assumed there was some reason the Elena wasn't as good a choice for a basic nude bra. I decided to get it because I wanted to try a strap modification I have in mind, and thought I might as well have something slightly different than what I already have. I also asked for the straps to be moved in 3 cm, which I think they were? It's a little hard to tell.

    When it first arrived, I was a little worried because I seemed to want to quad out of it a ... bit. It really seems to walk the line there, depending on the day. Sometimes it does a little, sometimes it doesn't. But it's still very comfortable, so I've decided not to worry about it.
    The band is nice and snug and fits great on me.

    I think these seams are the least show-through of all my bras, which is awesome.
    The details (little bows and such) are the same colour as the bra, and not that weird brown plaid that seems to be the case with older makes of the Elena. I definitely prefer this, and had planned on removing them if that were not the case.

    I'm glad I have another go-to nude bra. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I haven't yet tried my strap modification idea, partly because it'll really be a shame if I mess it up so this bra is unusable. But I will update here if I do attempt it, and meanwhile I will continue enjoying this as a regular bra.

    Elena has Comexim's standard plunge style pattern, so nothing really to note in terms of cut. I bought this model mainly to compare it to Comexim's other beige plunge, Comexim Basic Plunge Bra (170). They are cut the same and only differ in terms of fabric, colour, and embellishment.

    The Elena has a mesh later over the cups and band whereas the Basic has a regular overlay fabric.

    The Elena is slightly darker and more yellow-toned than the Basic.

    This bra and all of the others I received from Comexim recently come with four columns of hooks instead of the usual three I used to recieve.

    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!
