Note: though this doesn't alter the measurements of the bra in any way tracked by bratabase, this bra does have reduced cups, or, in other words, it was ordered with lower cup height near the straps. Otherwise the cups on comexim bras are too tall for me-- and how much do I love that you can customize the bra when you order?!
This is absolutely gorgeous-- if you like the way this bra looks online, I can assure you that it is even more beautiful in real life-- well constructed, with a unique and absolutely stunning color scheme. The color is accurate in Comexim's pictures on my ... monitor-- the ribbon and lace at the top of the cups are a cool gray (I'd say with a hint of a blue or lavender). The cup material is red with light and dark blue roses (that don't match, but suit the gray accents) and faded yellowish green leaves. The straps are wide and comfortable, and perfectly match the gray ribbon and lace trim on the top of the cups. The bow on the central gore, again the same shade of gray, is over-sized and made of a slender ribbon. The print is continued on the outside band, and the insides of the cups and band are lined with red fabric.
The cups, as with all Comexim bras are narrow, with a narrow center gore-- this works very well for me, as my breasts are deep and I have a pretty small frame. The shape of the bra works with center-full breasts-- but definitely expect a lot of cleavage if you have deep breasts with a narrow gore-- this bra looks amazing on (IMO) and is a definite mood boost, but it brings all that you have front and center. Despite the potential for cleavage, it can be worn with a v-neck without cleavage with strategic positioning if the v-neck isn't too deep-- I still can have a gap in between my breasts (compared to the Deco, where the cup shape doesn't hold my (soft) breasts inside the cup, so my breasts spill toward the center and leave no room in between), which makes it easier to wear this bra in a work appropriate fashion.
After all this gushing, I'll admit that this bra is a bit too small in the cups, but it still looks good on, it's just a looooot of cleavage. 65J would fit well on a 28H or a 30GG in my opinion. The band is tight, as with most Comexims-- I can wear it without an extender, but it feels uncomfortably tight after a few hours so I will wear it with one for now. I need to update my measurements in bratabase, but I'm not going to do so now. As of this review, I'm about a 30H-- I think my breasts might shrink back to my previous size, though (I hope!), and then this bra will be a perfect size. My current best fitting bras are: Comexim Luna 30K with reduced cups; Cleo Lily in 32G; Panache Sport in 30GG; Freya Hello Dolly in 30H.
Comexim is absolutely my new favorite lingerie brand.
