My shape: semi-conical, firm, splayed, narrow width, tall shallow roots, size and shape asymmetry on right side.
I haven’t bought from Comexim in about a year, because I was so disappointed in how my 60O Curacao turned out. Hot Chocolate is a standard plunge instead of an extra deep plunge like Curacao. I think they did a better job on this one, but it really showcases how inconsistent the brand is. I had asked for the straps to be moved in 2cm, the cup height to be lowered 1cm, and to add cotton cookie pockets. It does have the cookie pockets, and I think they did lower the cup ... height, as it 8” high. I cannot tell if the straps have been moved in, as I still have to angle them inwards. The stretched band measures 28.25”, which is surprising given how many folks have said they are making the bands longer. I really appreciate this.
I asked them to lower the cup height because my shallow, conical breasts do not fill out any cup top. In the photos, because of the wide straps, it still looks like the cups are too big. This is not the case. The cups are 12” deep, and I feel a bit compressed on my larger side. Depending on how I move my arms, the top of the cup will cut into me slightly. I have two cookies in on my smaller side to help with the top gaping. Lowering the cup height might have been a bit of a mistake, as bending over to pick things up leads me dangerously close to popping out of the cup top.
It’s often said around here that Comexim doesn’t know how to make small band, large cup bras. This bra fits better on me than the extra deep plunge cut, and the 3HC in the same size. I have to wonder if it has something to do with the height of the gore wires. They put too much fabric on the outside of the cup near the straps, and not enough in the middle to contain the breasts. It’s not the worst fit I’ve ever had from them, so I do think I will experiment again with another standard plunge.

It looks amazing on you! And I agree, I think the gores need to be higher and the fabric near the straps lower to help contain our larger breasts and not distort the wires as well since they are more flexing. If I order a padded from them again, that is what I'll try. I experienced that flop out in Beatrice, so it is entirely possible and not fun!!
