After having great luck with Comexim bikini tops last year, I purchased this top because the polka dot pattern is just too cute. The pattern is a true white background with a dark navy blue dot. The inside of the cup is a thee part construction made with a soft white flexible cotton covered foam. The outer cup consists of bathing suit fabric in a two part cup. The lower cup has a larger dot print that is gathered and ruched near the center gore. The upper part is the cup is a smaller coordinating dot print, giving it some visual interest. The center gore, rocker and back ... band are made using the smaller dot print fabric. Now I will mention, in this top the lower rocker seems to be cut rather narrow. So the side seam, where the back band attaches to the rocker, sits at a wry strange angle causing the fabric to ripple due to uneven tension. The straps are elastic stretch with the small dot pattern with white hardware. The back clasp is one silver interlocking clip.
** Important notes: This band runs very very stretchy! I recommend sizing down in the band and up in the cup to get your typical Comexim fit. Since it’s a bathing suit and I’m not too worked up about trying to return it, it’s ok to me since I can just take the band in at the clip anyway.
Bottoms in size Large:
These bottoms are a side tie style. The front and back have the smaller dot fabric while the side ties have a bigger dot print. The inside is lined with white bathing suit lining, including the gusset in the crotch. The elastic is evenly tensioned and doesn’t dig in or pinch my butt fat. I personally prefer the sides to be sewn together, as I have a little one and wouldn’t want my sides getting untied. I may stitch them together to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions. I feel these run a little big on me, but I think sizing down they would be too small. I may purchase a size medium to keep on hand if I lose any more weight.
