I absolutely adore the soft but sturdy fabric and the lovely black and blue lace pattern. The straps are a nice width and the light padding feels very comfortable and is great for modesty. This was my first foray into the Polish bra world so I took a gamble on size and sadly this one was way too small! About 2-3 cup sizes too small for me personally. If I could find it in a larger cup size I'd love to own it as it really is a beautiful bra.
Cute, and the band is nice and comfy, but the cups are just way too big on me. I seem to have this problem with the top third part of Comexim's cups. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> Weirdly, although the cups seem to be wider than my usual bras, it doesn't seem to be TOO wide. I wonder if it is because the cups are so big that the fabric just isn't being spread out over my boobs? Or maybe the band is too loose?
This was by far my most comfortable bra. Not only was it comfy, it was gorgeous too. My husband caught a glimpse of it while I was changing and even he had said it was a good looking bra - he normally tunes out when I talk about or show him my bras. I had happened upon it and bought it knowing it would be too small. That was certainly true, but when I started to lose weight, it eventually became my only passable fit. This particular one had reduced cups, which is absolutely necessary for me to get a decent fit in Comexim's padded plunges. Their wires ...are rather soft so when it fit best, I only got a soft tack out of it. The soft wires does mean it's much more comfortable under the arms, though. *Love*
The band was workable, though during the few times I was able to wear it as I lost weight, it eventually became a bit too loose for me. I'm so sad this bra isn't being made anymore, as far as I know. I would buy it again in a heart beat, but this time in a reduced 65J. Read more 88 more words
Unfortunately, this bra was not only too big in the cups for me, but because it was the standard cup cut instead of reduced, the cups were much too tall. The band felt quite nice, though. In terms of appearance, it's pretty appealing. Has a bit of a "middle market" feel to it. It's not my favorite from Comexim, but I'd probably snatch another one up second hand if I saw it in a 65J with reduced cups.
I love this bra! It fits like my Brav Satine (30H), is gorgeous, and provides a great shape.
-Update May 2015 - I still love this bra, though it's a tad small for me now. I never wear it without an extender and that helps mostly, but I could use a bit more cup room also these days. The top of the cups now have a bit more of a tendency to fold or crease an inch or so away from the center gore, which smooths out under clothing but is a note. I did have to reinforce the sewing attaching the hooks and eyes to the band from when I was wearing it without an extender (too tight!) but that's an easy hand-sewing fix and it's held up wonderfully.
Although I'm still on the fence about the pattern of this bra (multicolored feathers) I reach for it regularly. I've had it for a few months and it still fits well on the loosest hook - so it hasn't stretched out much. Sometimes the straps can feel a little flimsy, but with the very stretchy band material and three hooks the majority of the support clearly comes from the band, which is good. I do love the colors and how thin/"normal looking" the straps are. Overall a great bra that fits me well! As with most Comexim bras the wires are very narrow, which works for me; but ...be aware if you're trying one out for the first time.
- Update May 2015 - this bra doesn't really fit me anymore - I could use another cup size and a bit more room in the band. Comexim bras are pretty stretchy so a tighter fit is more comfortable than it might be with a stiffer bra, but that means that one can end up wearing a tighter band than one ought. That's definitely happened in my case, I've had to sew the eyehooks back into the bra since I've stretched them out. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> BUT, I've been wearing this regularly (few times a week) for a year and it's still in great shape, no deformation of the cups, visible broken-ness in the elastic, or even fading color.

Lovely Comexim bra - doesn't fit me. I tried this with an extender and though it eliminates the quad boob, the wire under my arm starts to dig into the side of the bra, so with this one, I'd think I need a 65K or L (i.e. 1-2 cup sizes bigger than a 65J).
This is another Comexim winner, though it's a little on the small side for me now. Great uplifted, round, forward-projected shape - beautiful pattern - silky fabric - sturdy but not obnoxiously industrial straps - etc!
I think I need to move into a 70J - I wish I wasn't on the last hook on this bra as the hooks & eyes are visibly beginning to strain (I've had this bra several months now.)
Adorable print and this size fits (27 inch UB 35 inch leaning OB), maybe a teeny small in cup (or cups are too far apart and/or closed?). Still, wearable. So far I am not as impressed with Comexim as I have been with Ewa Michalak. Prehaps EM is just a better fit for my shape, but I also find Comexim to feel heavy and a bit hot for south Texas weather.
My impression of Comexim was thet people were impressed with the quality. I can't agree. There's nothing wrong with the actual craftsmanship but the material of this bra is super scratchy and itches. Not the band material, that is soft and nice, but the material of both the outside and inside of the cup. This fits much more like a tshirt bra on me, it is quite full coverage and doesn't do any real lifting. I think it's too shallow for me so my bigger side just wants to push it away, the gore keeps shifting and ends up sitting on my breast tissue on the bigger side since ...there just isn't enough room in the cup.
Edit: I have now worn this bra a lot since it 1 out of 2 bras that I own that remotely fit. I wear this with a rixiclip to make the band smaller, but it still rides up in the back. When I swoop and scoop it looks ridiculous. I get major (like nipples popping out) quad-boob at the same time as the cups collapse underneath. So I tuck them back inside but this bra is too closed on top so it still cuts in a lot. I think it's too shallow and to closed on top. I get flat pancake boobs and a real lack of lift and shaping, and thats what I look for in a plunge.. but if I really push the boobs back in it still looks ok under clothing so that's why I wear it.

Note: My current size is around a 32F, my left breast is in between an F and FF cup. If you want to order this bra, I would recommend sister sizing a band size up, and maybe a cup size up as well. This bra runs small in the band and the cups.
First off, the band fits like a 30 (I'm a 32), so I do have to wear an extender. Secondly, the wires are actually TOO narrow for me, which I think is what's causing it to be painful. And thirdly, because this is close to a plunge shape, my breasts fall out a bit in ...the middle. This I did expect, as my breasts are very soft, and plunges don't work for me for that reason. My breasts have also grown some since I bought this bra, so now the cups are too small. I do love that this bra has 3 rows of hooks; I wish more bras in my size came that way!
If the wires were a tad wider, and the gore taller, I would buy this bra again in a sister size up, and perhaps a cup size up as well (ideally a half cup size up). Sidenote: I purchased this bra from wellfitting.com. Read more 106 more words
What a strange bra. I ordered from Wellfitting and had to exchange because the first one in size 30DDD was absurdly small. This one is labeled 32DDD (70F) and the band is 24 inches stretching to 29. This sucker is tight. I thought I was going to have to send it back again, but it felt OK after wearing for a while so I am going to keep it. Cup is a tad small still but I think the next size would be too big. I am not very impressed with Comexim so far. My Comexim Ingrid Biustonosz (289) is cute, but not a perfect fit for me. Ewa Michalak is fitting me much better. I also find these two Comexim to be thick and heavy (hot for my south Texas home).
This bra gives a cakes on a plate cleavage that might be very nice on someone with taller roots. On me it looks a little... corset like? Great fit and great uplift if that's what you're looking for, though.
This is the second Ingrid I've owned. The first, from the original run of the bra, had a pretty, larger center bow. The current bras are being produced with a smaller ribbon that matches the strap bows. It's still very pretty but it was kind of disappointing. Still a gorgeous bra and currently my best fit.
When I first bought this (I bought 3 Comexim in the same size), it fit wonderfully and was definitely the most comfortable out of the 3 (the others were Mint Sorbet and Geisha). I tried it on a few times and loved it at the time. I was around a 32J and it fit really nicely. I often had issues with wide wires, so Comexim was great. Very uplifted, rounded shape. Quality materials that were soft and comfortable to wear. The cups were a little tall, but not overly so.
Unfortunately, though, currently, I am about a 30HH, so it is both too big in the cup and band... and completely unwearable.
Bought this April 2014. I was around a 32J at the time and it fit quite well, as I needed narrow gore, lots of projection, narrow wires and relatively open cups. The cups were a little tall, I think. At the time, I think I could have gone a 70M instead for less coverage. I looove the colour/print and wish it fit me now. I tried this on a few times but never ended up wearing it out as I preferred unpadded bras (as they made my boobs look smaller).
This doesn't fit anymore though and is way too big in the cups and band.
Purchased in April 2014 along with the same size in Mint Sorbet and Luna. The Geisha is probably the prettiest of the 3 and my favourite... yet I never got to wear it. I was around a 32J at the time and the Mint Sorbet and Luna fit really well, but the Geisha was quite tight in the band so I didn't reach for it. I had planned on getting an extender while it loosened up.
It is a beautiful bra and I would love it if it were the right size. I've reviewed the other Comexims but I will describe the cut here as ...well. This cut is great for full on top breasts, especially for those needing a narrow gore and narrow wires. The shape is very round and uplifted, no droopy boobs here. The band seems to be angled downwards a little (as opposed to riding up) - I think this gives the bra even more support and is a great feature.
Having said all that, I am now a 30 band, and while the Geisha band is fine, the cups are just way too big so it is unwearable. Read more 87 more words
Much better than the 65HH (see review, cups were way too large, band much too small, despite a 29" underbust). Gore does not tack at the top (1cm gap) because there is not enough center projection. This may be a cup size too small for me, but on the other hand, I have a bit of gapping by the straps, so I am considering ordering same size with custom straps moved in. My only trepidation is possible quad-boobing that could occur. It is unclear whether the gapping by the straps is due to orange-in-glass effect or straps too far apart. Straps ARE about 1/2 inch too far apart ...for me and also carry too much weight because of the non-tacking gore, but neither issue is a real deterrent. I am in love with the low underarms and narrow underwires, both which are perfect for me and a big relief for my irritated front-of-armpit skin Re: Freya Deco. For that alone, I am thrilled with this bra. Does not show even under stretchy/thin shirts for me. The shape is a lovely hybrid of green-purple: it's up-front and perky without being in-your-face.
The shape is a hearty improvement on my Panache Envy and Jasmine, which were too down-and-out and caused gapes between buttons on my button-down blouses. The Comexim Basic does not do that. I think if I could go back and do it again, I may have ordered from the U.S. vendor Wellfitting to save time (because I ordered a different size and then had to exchange, the process of acquiring this took~6 weeks), but the total cost of ordering direct vs. U.S. was probably the same.
Also an interesting side-note: the straps on this size had lace detailing all along their front, while the 65HH had plain straps. You can still adjust the straps over the detailing. I think the detailing actually provides a little extra stability (because they stitched it on), which I find nice, as the undetailed straps were overly stretchy, which also felt a little cheap. Also interesting, the detailing on mine is lace, NOT the looped thread pictured on the photo that someone uploaded for this size (I guess Comexim just uses what they have in stock).

I have considered custom ordering a second one with straps moved in, but as I already don't get enough projection in this bra as-is, I don't want to lose cup space in the middle. Some have said a lower gore can enhance projection next to the gore, but I'm not willing to sacrifice any stability, since my breasts are heavy*! (*have no idea how heavy my breasts are compared to other women, I just know they are a lot of weight on my frame!)
Okay, I'm pretty decided on ordering 70H with reduced cups and straps moved in
Nah, just moving straps in on 70G. Wow, bra-fitting is driving me nuts!!
As I've worn this more, I've had to tighten the straps, and it's clear these cups are too small.
