Quick review to prepare for the upcoming Comexim sale https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

Edit: this is an unlined 3HC, it’s black and burgundy with white detailing on the lace.

Overall I love this bra! I think I’ve gone up a size unfortunately, as my other comexim 3HCs are too small too, so this one is too small for me. I’d say the cup size is true to size. The band is quite stretchy, I could have gone with a size smaller in the band so I’d recommend sizing down in the band. It fits like my other 3HCs cup wise.

Even though the cups are ... technically too small for me, this bra is still comfortable! I totally still wear it https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> The cups are a slightly stretchy mesh/tulle material covered with a beautiful lace. It truly is gorgeous in person. The band is solid stretchy black mesh type material and there are 3x3 hooks in the back. The wires are soft, like other comexims. For me, the gore shifts around, tilting to one side or the other, but I think that’s due to it being too small rather than the soft wires.

I didn’t request any alterations as I was under the impression that they don’t do alterations with unlined bras? Not sure. But I don’t think I really need alterations except maybe straps moved in 1-2cm.

Apologies for lack of photos and the late review, I will add more soon…

I purchased this swimsuit top online when I was keeping an eye out for both Polish brand bras, and a fitting black swimsuit top for a 1 day beach get away. I came across this low priced really nice quality Comexim bikini top and snatched it up. It was. Size 60M but I believe the add shared that fit similar to a UK28GG and I wear around a 28G. I hoped the band would fit and not be too tight, but for the price, it was worth trying out. (It was under $15 with shipping, maybe $12?) It came in a couple days and I am so glad ... I got this. I had to find the add and double check, and compared it to tons of other pictures to make sure and I am almost positive this is a Bora Bora top. I wanted to try Polish brands like Comexim, for their narrow wires and projected sizes in a small band and larger cup size and how well constructed they are. I am somewhat petite/curvypetite, I am short with narrow shoulders, my breasts are projected, functionally FOB and a lot of innerfullness when supported and I have narrow roots. I wear about a 286 after losing weight, and for a part of my monthly cycle off my period, I now have a little softer tissue/skin at the top of my breasts.

This top came quickly in great shape,was kind of simple but elegant. It looked kind of like a 3 part half cup with the vertical seams, and like it had enough padding to keep everything smooth under my top but not so much that it was bulky. The cups seemed like they would fit, though I hoped they wouldnt be too large after losing weight especially having one smaller breast. The band looked like it would fit too, but had a clasp in back rather than multiple sets of hooks to adjust it. I was nervous because I thought a 65 band would fit me better when looking before. The clasp and hardware is gold colored and took me a minute to finagle open and closed, and it actually cramped my hand but once I figured it out it was a peace of cake. I somehow hurt myself getting this on for some reason, which again I think was just a me issue. (I am use to clasping a bra/bikini tops with bands too large, so I am still getting use to wearing tops I cant just clasp and pull over my head.) I got up the courage to try it on again and was so happy with it! The band actually fit, I am glad I didn't have a 65 band, and the cups maybe would have fit a little better one cup size smaller (60L) but it was still perfectly fine. It would have fit me even better if I was a few pounds heavier, but it had enough room for my bottom fullness. If I wore it too long the straps and cups slightly rubbed on my armpit area, but not too bad. I like that it kept me lifted without unnecessary push up and for once I wasnt wearing something way too small in the cups, so I wasnt spilling out. The band was comfortable for my back, actually it is more comfortable than some of my bras! The gore was about as tall and wide as I can tolerate, but it wasnt uncomfortable and wasnt digging into my tissues too bad. I have a lot of innerfullness when supported, and in the past I am use to wearing super plunge push up bras, where the gore and wires are never competing for space. I Think overlapping wires would be better. I have asymmetry, and my larger and smaller breast seem to have different roots so I try to be mindful of the gores and wires working enough for both. It wasnt uncomfortable or significant enough to cause much issue though, I still wear it and will continue to do so. I may keep my eye out for either secondhand Polish bras with reduced cup height, overlapping wires, and maybe reduced gore height/straps moved in. The wires were narrow enough for my larger breast but a little too wide on my smaller higher breast, but it wasnt problematic. I felt confident in this swim top and I am so glad I found something that works and I found something to be confident in for my one day "vacation" for the beach/pool.

About me: FOB, close set, centre full, pendulous, and short roots.

Fit: So this is the first Comexim plunge that fits at the top of the cup for me. It’s weird because this is unaltered but the cups are shorter than the other plunges in my size and the straps aren’t too wide. Also the gore is wider than my other comexims for some reason. It’s a bit too small on my larger side and the gore tilts a bit to one side. There’s also not enough immediate or centre projection so it slides down a bit out of my IMF and the centre of the wires ... doesn’t quite fit into my IMF. but it’s my best fitting comexim plunge so far. It’s pretty comfortable. I’m getting a poke out your eyes pointiness which I’m hoping will soften with time? LOL

Material and appearance: soft silky fabric covered stable tulle, 3x4 hooks, grey straps, and a lovely pale pink pattern. The cups are stiff and lightweight, similar to the basic plunge.

I’m not sure if This is as good as it gets for me with the comexim plunge LOL Or if I should try another one in this size or try the size up with alterations....

This is one that I got from another user here. I’ve wanted this style for a while, and it was a good price. I was curious about the fit and my weight loss this year. I’ve lost about 15 pounds and about 2” off of my over bust. It’s pretty used but, still in pretty good shape, I think. It’s hard to say exactly how much wear it has compared with a brand new one though.

Given the initial measurements, I had thought it might fit but, it was possible that it would be too big based on how my other Comexim bras fit me right now. Sadly, ... this fits in the too big category. I’m trying to figure out if it’s from wear or if it’s just this big on me now. I’m thinking that my best bet would be to get a 65H or 70G in it, and I might do that from Breakout Bras because it is super cute. Unless I can exchange it with someone else…

The colour and print are super cute but even if the straps are pretty tight, it’s still gaping. Looser straps and I can put my fist in the cup on my smaller side. I suppose reduced cups and gore would fix it but,
I think just the size down will be enough.

I might post a fit check and gage information from people…

Quality is really nice, it's simple but pretty too. The shallowest and widest (barely wider) of the 3 3HCs comexims I own. Barely any projection. Squishes my boobs, which makes the band feel tight and it's already the smallest band of the 3 I own. The straps feel really nice and comfy. Gores almost overlap, gore is a bit too tall for me. Supposedd to fit like a 26E/F, would suggest 55HH for 26F unless you're shallow. The fit is my own issue but the quality is great. Nothing feels flimsy.

Disclaimer- still deciding if the 3 comexims are a perfect fit or not.

Very pretty bra, I love the little tassel. Band is very comfortable. Gore almost overlaps. Quality is great, no itchiness. Fits like a 26E/F, apparently. A bit too small for me, squishes my breasts. The wires are narrow enough for me! If you're a 26F, I'd suggest trying 55HH, unless maybe if you're shallow. Haven't tried non 3HC comexims so, can't compare. 2nd shallowest in the 3 3HCs I own. The fit is my own problem, the bra itself is really great!

Disclaimer- still deciding if the 3 comexims are a perfect fit or not.

May 15, 2021: Updated Review:
Due to weight gain this bra is now my go-2 lined bra for everyday wear. Prior to this I was wearing a sister size of 65K, but I find the over all proportions of the 70J cup more fitting to my bust. The apex of the bra is in a much better position compared to the 65K. I wear this bra on the tightest set of hook for the best fit.

November 26, 2018: Original Review:
I picked up this Basic Plunge after loving the same style in a smaller size, before having my last child, and so far it’s fitting the best out of ... my most recent purchases. Only thing I wish I could change, and I just might have it fixed, is having the straps moved in a little. It sits just ever so slightly wide for my liking. It’s also a bit of a drag that this bra fits me best on the tightest set of hooks, considering my older one ran really small and tight in the band for its size. Only other thing that slightly bothers me is the ripples in the outer layer of fabric. The outer layer doesn’t lay smooth over the under layer of the cup, but can be fixed when I open up the side to move the straps in. Over all this is a decent buy and I’m glad I at least have something on hand that gives me the upfront cleavage I like.

Purchased a 28G bra from breakout bras. I compared the measurements of the 65H (how I placed the order) and found them to be the exact same cup measurements for the 28G/60HH.

looks to be too wide for me but it is one of the better fitting bras I own. I require more projection than 9.5 but because this is wide, my tissue settles into the side and "fits". A bit shallow too. If I slouch, I can kind of feel the padding near the underwire near my armpit begin to fold in half. Unsure if it is because too wide of wires or shallow cup (maybe both?).

The gore isn't close set enough for me either, but it's perfect when I fold and overlap the wires.

Band also feels really stretchy and I could probably do a 50 band or size 26.

My breast tissue is soft; left is even (almost/a hair FOT), right is FOT. I have very narrow roots with some center fullness.

I'm likely keeping it to make personal alterations.

It was ordered for someone who wears 34C and it didn't fit her (cups too small, band too big). The band was TTS, maybe on the tighter end. I put it on to see how a larger cup (equivalent of 65F) would fit me and there was some gaping. The material was nice and smooth.

This bra is so pretty! My only regret is that I ordered 75J when now it seems like 75K would have been perfect. Why does Comexim sizing have to be so hard?!?

The foam is lightweight and offers good coverage and shaping without feeling stiff. The inside of the cup is soft, and the seams don’t irritate. I had Comexim make the bra with the straps moved in 2 cm so they aren’t too wide, and I asked them to make the gore this height so it’s neither too short nor too tall. After extended wear, I do get some quadding or feel the bra shift ... downward so I do wish I’d sized up in the cup. It’s wearable, and it’s comfortable if I don’t wear it for too long. The wires and gore are narrow, as you’d expect from a Polish bra.

The colors are gorgeous in person. The matching undies are cute and comfortable as well, FWIW. I have considered reordering this bra in 75K and listing the 75J for sale, but I haven’t done it yet. I do recommend this bra, but size up if in doubt! Especially if you’re fuller on top or have tall roots.

Ordered from Comexim with straps moved in 2 cm and gore height 7 cm

Updated on Feb 03, 2021 Flag this

My Black Friday Comexim order arrived! I got tired of using silicone nipple covers under unlined bras when I wear thin white tops so decided to get a lined white bra.

Since my first trial a few years ago, I found that Comexim half-cups fit my top fullness and tall roots much better than plunges, so I asked to make the Basic Bra in a 3HC. It is a 60 band, so it is unreturnable. I'm really disappointed it's too small in the cups. I had lined and unlined 3HC's from Comexim in 60HH, but they got too small because I gained weight and a cup size. So I ... was pretty sure I need a 60J, but it turns out I'm wrong.

The cups feel really shallow as I have a bit of empty space at the bottom and my boobs get pushed UP so dramatically. A cup depth of 8.5" is more like a 60H/HH imo. I wonder if their cups are made smaller now? My soft tissue is also falling out at the centre and a little bit at the armpit area - I could use more coverage there.

The band is a bit tight, but my under bust is 27" so it is not a problem for me.

My shape: projected, FOT, narrow tall-ish roots, very close-set with lots of inner fullness. The only alteration I requested for this bra was cookie pockets so there should be no difference in fit from the standard cut. I ordered this custom from Comexim in 65M but the tags say 30J.

In the past, I've been more partial to Comexim's 3HC cut - I had found the shape of the plunges a little pointy with not enough depth at the wire. However, this bra fits so well that I've changed my mind completely. The plunge (obviously) suits my inner fullness much better than the 3HC in the same size. The ... gore casing is overlapping at the top (same with all the bras I received in this order) but I didn't request it.

The shape I get in this bra is very rounded. The gore does not tack - I think Comexim wires are too flexible/soft for this. I'm not fussed about this as gores that do tack (e.g. Panache/Cleo balconettes) tend to cut in on my inner fullness anyway. Wires are a medium-narrow width and depth at the wire is adequate. The apex of the bra is a little more east/west than I prefer but the overall projection of the cups is fairly forward-facing. I do tend to migrate towards the middle of the bra after some time wearing it but it's otherwise comfortable.

Appearance-wise, the bra is a lovely light beige with a soft sheen. The lace overlay is a slightly lighter colour than the cups and has a scalloped edge. Beige bows adorn the bra at the straps and gore and the straps also have a satin-y triangle patterned edging which is a nice detail. They are also fully adjustable. The cookie pockets I requested are a beige mesh. The light beige of this bra is not a nude for me as it is too pale for my light-medium warm-toned skin but it still functions well as a nude under clothing.

Overall, this bra is stunning and I'm really happy with the fit and quality. This is possibly one of my new favourite bras/cuts.

Custom 3hc with overlapped gore and 1cm extra depth at base of cup.
Love this red sparkly bra! fits like a glove.
I am projected, centre full and full on top. This gives me an amazing shape, nice low cut and no spillage or double boob.
It is a lovely soft foam and the shade of red is great, nice dark red and the sparkly apples are so cute. I feel very christmassy when its on.

overlapped gore, 1cm extra cup depth

Updated on Dec 12, 2020 Flag this

This is so close to fitting, and absolutely gorgeous. The band runs tight, which is perfect for me with a 29 inch underbust. I was concerned about the cup height (known for being tall) and strap width (known for being wide), but they're both absolutely fine. The wires are too wide, and there's not enough immediate projection for me, but bending the wires in has remedied both of these issues (but I could still do with a touch more depth at the wire). I asked for the gore to be overlapping and narrowed, and it's definitely narrow enough to not be a problem for me, but it still ... doesn't quite tack. I need more room for center fullness. Every couple of hours I have to reverse swoop and scoop to get my breasts back in the cups and get the gore closer to my sternum.

I'm thinking of asking for narrower wires and added depth (along with the gore alterations) on my next order, but I'm not sure if these would fix my center fullness issues. Maybe it's worth going up a cup size? I've read that gores often don't quite tack with Comexim bras because of the soft wires, and when I put it on it's only a tiny gap so I'm not too concerned about that, but it does get pushed out to over a fingers width away as I'm wearing it which is far less good.

Narrowed and overlapping gore

Updated on Nov 17, 2020 Flag this

My shape is low set, even to FOB, narrow and short rooted, and soft.

This is the newer version of the 3 part half cup. I think they've run out of material for this bra now, but they had enough to make this one. I got it with an overlapping gore, straps moved in 1 cm, and cups reduced in height. The gore is overlapped, and I'm pretty sure the straps were moved in, but I can't tell if the cups were reduced in height. My nipples aren't that far below the cup edge, so if they weren't reduced, it's probably for the best as it would have been ... too short. Guess I probably don't need that alteration. My Comexim Natalie Half Cup (491) was made with a lower gore and it fits great, which is why I wanted to try a shortened cup. I'll skip this alteration altogether next time. I'm at low low tide right now too, so if things swell, I hope the cups still fit? I did a jumping test, and nothing popped out, so I guess it fits just right at the moment. Not that I jump around a lot in my average day, but you know....

This bra is very pretty in person; a nice cream coloured bra with pretty lace (my first beige bra). Unfortunately, the lace doesn't go all the way around to the back of the bra like my 65J - Comexim » Natalie Half Cup (491), but it's fine. The lace along the cup edges is scalloped and comes above the cup itself, so it sort of floats next to the breast. It's nice but I prefer cups with a trim that lays flat as I'm so short rooted. I could see this bra working for both short and tall roots though just because of it's construction. I tried it on with a tank top, and you can see minor signs of lace showing through from the cups. I imagine with a tighter or smoother material, you'd see the cups through... not a problem for me since I wear looser clothes. The colour works well as a nude though, and I couldn't see it through the white parts of my tank. There's a cream bow on the gore, and the nice wide straps have a nice pattern along the outer edges that gives them something extra. Straps are almost all the way extended out on my tall frame (just long enough). The cup shape is nice and rounded, but a touch wider than I need. No matter, as my squishy breasts fill out the space anyways. The band is snug for a 65 cm band, which is perfect for me, as I like my bands to fit 28-29" (I got 28.3" stretched until the cups started distorting). The band is nice and wide, with 4 sets of 3 hooks.

Edited to add: Even though I'm definitely a sub-30" rib cage, one of the hooks came right out the first time I tried this on, and one of the eyes is a bit loose. I've never had that happen before on a Comexim bra, so it surprized me. It didn't feel like I was over extending the band or anything, so I think they were just sewn in loose or something. Weird!

As usual, it's very comfortable right out of the box. It's one of my favourite things about Comexim... always comfy. I've only tried it on so far, but so far, overall, high quality, excellent comfort, and great appearance.

About me: center full and close set, dense, narrow, projected, full on bottom with tall, gradually sloping roots.

I get significant quad boob and my breasts push the wires/cups down so that they don't sit in my imf. That being said, it is still more supportive than a number of my other technically fitting bras. The only problem is that the wires hit in a weird spot and make my ribs sore and maybe even a bit slippy (connective tissue disorder problems). Comexim 3hc bras fit me quite a bit better.

Altered straps, Lowered gore

I just received my Eve, and it's cut differently from the one in the Comexim photo. Mine is a three-piece cup, whereas bra in the photo has a single vertical seam. I am glad I received the kind I did because it's cut like their padded plunge bras. All of the measurements run virtually the same, and the wires feel the same. The band is a little stretchier though not by a lot. Eve will feel great to wear in the Summer. It's not their most sumptuous style, but it has great utility, and the eyelet fabric is pretty IMO. I ordered my normal Comexim size FYI and ... it fits like normal.

Here are some shape characteristics I see in my size of the bra:

- good projection at the bottom, better than in their padded plunges

- cut somewhat shallow at the apex, gives me a more rounded silhouette than many unlined bras I've tried

- somewhat closed on top, but the cup is fairly tall anyways so this wasn't an issue for me

- the cup fabric is strong, not stretchy, and the seams are substantial (not itchy though)

SEMI-OVERLAPPED WIRE CHANNELS

Updated on Feb 10, 2020 Flag this

This is one of the two bras ordered around Black Friday. After the 65J - Comexim » Belen Half Cup was a little too tall and tight, I messaged Anna at Comexim to help me figure out what size I should try next for a better fit. We ended up working on both 3HC fit and plunge fit because I like both styles. Guys, it was really fricking hard to decide what style to try, but she suggested Triss, and it was on my short list, so I went with it. I seriously had a half dozen or more short listed styles to try the ... alterations with. I’m glad she picked it from my list as the black is good for my work uniform (also black).

This bra is a padded 3 part half cup with 2 vertical seams, and lace covering the cup edge. The material of the cups is quite soft and smooth, a bit silky, and the foam cups are lightweight. It’s black with what appears to be white or ivory dots in a sort of pearl necklace design, though in some lighting, look a little pale pink tinged. The lace is a lovely shade of mauve. The bow, straps, and trim are a similar mauve shade. The band has 3x3 hooks and the straps are fairly thick.

After sending pictures and videos to Anna of all the Comexims I’ve tried, and the various sizes and alterations combinations, she chose to make a 70H with the straps moved in 2cm and the gore reduced by 1cm. The plunge was the same, but added 2cm of depth at the wire. To be honest, I was a little bit curious that both bras were the same size, and that the plunge had the added depth when it is considered to fit larger than the half cup. I usually hear people size up in the half cups/down in the plunge. I was not so concerned with the cups not being reduced on this one because it’s a cup size smaller than the Belen was and I thought maybe I do need a cup size down.

The band is quite firm with limited stretch, and I’m glad that I got a 70 for this one. That said, I might have been able to do a 65 band if it had an extra column of hooks, though might be a bit snug at first still. The wires seem to be narrow enough, though I could possibly go a bit narrower. The cup height also seems to be ok, and the lace over the edge hides any minor fit issues. I’m unsure if the reduced gore is a benefit to me, and I don’t know if it’s a factor in the overall cup volume. This bra is a little but too small, and it’s most noticeable on my big side. It’s a little compressing, but is typical for this style and it’s not a huge issue for me. Sometimes I prefer this fit over the more projected and slightly pointier plunge.

I got the matching bottoms, however, by default, they’re a boy short which generally isn’t a good style for me (though I did stick with the shorty with the other bra). Since the Triss is similarly styled like the Scarlet, I asked for her to make the bottoms like the Scarlet for me...and I am glad I did. I ordered the medium and they fit. They’re a little snug, and I probably could have done a large, but they might ease in a bit more with wear. I would have gotten a bit more rear coverage, but I think the medium is still good. It’s a better fit than the other ones in my order. For reference, I take a medium size with aerie and La Senza unless it’s a particularly stretchy material.

All in all, the set fits decently, but not perfect. I think my next 3HC will be a cup size larger with reduced cups. Straps moved in are a consistent alteration. I don’t know if I can do 1cm as well, or if I really need the 2cm for my petite frame. And as said, I don’t know about the gore. I’m hoping to get some feedback from Anna on the fit of the two bras and I will update or edit this as that happens.

I really like this half cup. The bra is covered in a mesh overlay with velvety flowers/leaves, giving it a very luxurious look and feel. Having the straps moved in greatly improves the fit for me and makes my armpits much more comfortable. The cookie pockets are also a big plus, as adding a cookie on my smaller side helps to balance my asymmetry a bit. It also has a snug band (yay!!) and 4 rows of 3 hooks (or is it 3 rows of 4 hooks??) for extra security and more size adjustment. It has very comfy, widish straps that are easily adjusted and the cup ... height is great- not too tall for my short breasts. While the cup size is pretty good, the cups are overall wide and shallow. I would like more depth at the wire especially, but this bra has a bit more room there than my Gilda half cup in the same size, and slides down a bit less. That said, no bras actually fit in my IMF, with my Ewa CH Cherry coming the closest. I can wear this bra for a full day and only get a mild discomfort around my rib cage. So all in all, it's comfortable and I feel very well supported in it.
