    Didn't fit

    I currently wear Comexim 80M plunges, so I thought I was just getting another look, or maybe slight variation of that cut. Although, at this point I'm fairly certain no two Comexims are sewn the same, and asking for alterations just caused me more problems.
    For this particular bra, the cups are too far apart, and since there is a gap in the gore, my tissue tries to push out and under the wire into the center gap. The bottom strip lies flat on my sternum and fits correctly. Putting it on, this band felt much looser than other 80M's I have, so it may be a fabric that ... stretches out more. If I was in a physical store of these I would have definitely sized down to a 75 band.
    The cups of this bra are in my armpits too much. More than normal for my Comexim's. The purple stretch lace isnt anchored to the black cup at the top of the cup, and the black cup just barely covers my nipples- seems like a half cup/balcony of some sort. I definitely have a subtle quadboob right where the black cup ends. I also have room in the outer cup without tissue to the wire. The purple stretch lace also stretches A LOT and I had to fully tighten the straps, as the strap tension seemed like the only thing keeping me from spilling out the center. (Without straps and with half-tall cups, they just fall down) I worry this is too much strain for the stretch lace, and wish there was a more supportive element in it. The side wing height is too tall for me, and the top of the cup is crumpling against my tail of spence/armpit. Actually about 1/2 the triangle up from the cup to reach my shoulder is coming out of my armpit, curving around my arm to go up. I think this is too east/west for me, significantly more than normal for a comexim. it's a little annoying to import a bra to have it be as east/west as one domestically obtainable. I'm considering wearing it a few times to make sure I need to alter it, (because then it may get doomed to the work-in-progress box) but I think I might simply close the center front gap by essentially sewing the wires together. Since the cups seem to far apart and the straps are too far apart, and the band seems too big, I hope that would solve it.

    For any purple lovers out there, what I got did not look like the color pictured. I know it's difficult to express true colors online. The color on my screen appeared like a dusty darker lavender. A nice color that felt like it went along with the name Purple Love. The color I got is much closer to a vivid magenta or a really bright sangria, closer to the color of the butterfly on their website than the lavender I expected. Or maybe this https://www.pantone.com/color-finder/227-C As someone who likes purple but doesn't like pink, it was surprising and not a color I hoped for.

    Quality wise: All fabric seem nice, the sewing seems good. I wish the cup was more secured to the stretch lace, and that that stretch lace was reinforced or at least not as strained between the cup and shoulders- where it seems to be supporting the weight (more like a bralette than a bra). I also wish they were slightly better about piecing together the stretch lace where there werent extra-bumpy outercup seams. I am a big enough size to not hope for pattern-matching or seamless, but felling down the seam edge should could easily be done with a little more care.

    Comfort: Too east/west, crumpling against my armpits, tissue trying to escape center-front. It's not unwearable, but its not comfortable. The stretch lace is really soft, so that's nice.

    Appearance: The lace coming out of my armpit to reach my shoulder is very crumpled and not at all flattering. Worse, it make large lines that are visible through shirts. The wires at the center front which are sort of the focal point are all weird wince the gore is too wide, yet had no structure to hold it in place against my tissue. Where I sort of quad boob- under the center wire is not flattering or comfortable. I was also somewhat disappointed by the color, which to me seems very different than pictured.
