Initial wear:
(for an initial review for a standard 80M plunge by Comexim please see my Megan review)
My first time getting a bra with adjustments from Comexim. After a few emails back and forth, I bought two different plunge bras and asked that they both be made in a longline 80M, with the following adjustments:
“1. Bowl 1 cm deeper
2. Move the straps 2 cm in
3. Can you also make a narrower and shorter gore? The cups were slightly too far apart
4. Can you use narrower wires? The outside wire of the cup was about 3 cms from my breast tissue, but I filled the volume of ... the cup”
#1 was previously discussed to be adding projection/depth to the cup near the wire- I think it was misunderstood as to be adding an inch of depth/height in the wire on the other bra I got, the Magic, however Im not sure this bra was actually altered AT ALL.
This did come as a longline (my first order was supposed to be a longline and was delivered not as one). It feels very soft and not as heavy duty/structural compared to the Magic. The straps are too far apart for me. The wires are only about 2 finger widths too wide on the sides and outer bottom, but fit in my IMF and next to my cleavage-area root well. This one actually had crossed wires (The Magic didnt and the unaltered Megan didnt). Im not sure if the gore is shorter or not, but it isnt flipping side to side in a short wear. As the "longline" is mostly lace (with only 3 hooks) the lace goes wherever my body pushes it. The cup shape is good, although it doesnt quite follow my curve on the top edge (although it doesnt wrinkle or quad). The biggest cup shape issue is due to wire shape it doesnt follow the outside edge of my root. Im not sure if this band is particularly stretchy or what, but it almost feels as if the band is a size bigger.
Im not sure if this bra came in the standard, not altered size, as it fits nothing like the Magic I got and similarly to the Megan. Be careful anyone ordering from Comexim. The first time I got an unwanted alteration. This time it seems as my instructions for BOTH was only used on one. And despite saying they'd ask if they needed clarification, I think they did one of my requested alterations almost backwards on that one, giving me even taller cups instead of more immediate projection.
Quality: this one is very soft and comfortable. I love how soft and stretchy the lace is- almost like pajamas. However I wonder if that gives up some support. Also the cradle is simply the lace with a grey mesh backing- so it feels more like pajamas than a durable daily bra. To be determined with more wear.
Comfort: feels like pajamas
Appearance: cute, although the lace shows texture under a shirt.
Update:
10 months and 2 weeks: the band is still a little larger than I would like and I think has stretched out about one hook's width. This is probably my best fitting bra currently and the only one that doesnt hurt by the end of the day. The "longline" lace regularly just bunches up and has to be smoothed back down.

Lmao Comexim's been on a ROLL these days. The shape is pretty bad but i'm also concerned about complete lack of separation in this case. Beautiful bra though!
