So happy to find a better fit in this style! Previously had (well, still have, but it's listed for sale now) a "32E"-tagged Burgundy and it was quad city - the 70G is much better. It's not as shallow as some of the newer Comexim 3HC's, but doesn't match the deeper and better fitting projection of my Comexim Beauty 70F or Ewa Michalak CHP's in 65F. Although the slight shallowness means my boobs push it out of my IMF and down my chest wall a bit throughout the day, and full swoop & scoop results in a touch of quadding, it's not so bad for short-term or bedroom-focused wear, so it's a keeper for now.
So technically, the cups are too shallow on this bra for me, but it's soooo gorgeous that I am happy to keep it as a bedroom bra. This is another one that does not fit on swoop and scoop, but is so beautiful that I'll let that slide given that my boobs settle pretty readily anyway and it's likely something I'd only wear for short periods. The eyelash lace, I can't even. I coveted it for so long so it fits just okay enough that I'm hanging on to it for now.

I am in love with this bra. It gives a great uplift, which is so hard to do with my soft VFOB shape - honestly it's a bit shallower than I expected so the profile is not as rounded as I'd like, but isn't too shallow as to cause wrinkling. I get a teeny bit of quadding on my larger side but not enough as to be a problem. The band is nice and wide and sturdy, with 3 hooks for nice even support. Super narrow cups follow my IMF perfectly Bonus: it's absolutely gorgeous to look at.
This 3HC arrived .5" more narrow than the 65K 3HC Eris I ordered simultaneously. Neither bra had enough immediate depth for me. However, I was able to narrow the Eris wires to accommodate my need for immediate depth. There is not enough "extra" wire width in this 65K 3HC Geisha to create the depth. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":-(" /> Sigh. It pushes out of my IMF quickly because my larger breast doesn't fit near the wire. If you require a more narrow wire, it is .5" more narrow than Eris. Great news for those who need the most narrow wires. Sadly, I need more width.
This is my fourth spectacularly beautiful Geisha. However, I will try Gina next. Thanks Anya99 for the recommendation https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
This morning I awoke with pain under both arms. Yesterday, I wore a too narrow (5.5") Ewa Michalak bra for two hours. Today, this wider (6") Comexim arrived, and my breasts celebrated the available space. I prefer a 65 cm band, but Sonia is stretchy and comfortably wraps around and supports in a 60 cm band.
If you have close set breasts, ordering a "narrower gore" may greatly improve the fit for those with center fullness. I usually order an "overlapping gore." However, the narrower gore is narrower over a longer distance. The overlapping gore overlaps at the very top and returns to normal width more quickly. I ...may ammend my list of alterations to include "narrower gore." https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />
At 7" tall, this 60L is .25"-.5" too tall for my very short roots. However, the bottom of the cup is almost as comfortable as my 65K Eris...almost. Sister sizing in Comexim is not as simple as it seems. Although the 65K and 60L are apparent sister sizes, one glance at Comexim's size chart reveals why the 65K fits better. Comexim designs the 60L for 94-96cm of bust circumference whereas the 65K accommodates 97-99cm of bust circumference. The 65K is larger than the 60L. My shorties are trembling in fear, "What if the cup is taller, too?" Sigh. We'll know in two weeks, because the 65K 3HC are shipping now. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
My husband instantly noticed a change, "This really shows off your figure." Because I have a very curvy hourglass figure, E.M. S's lift and centering tends to narrow my upper body. The Comexim 3HC distributes my breasts in even roundless across my chest. This widens my upper torso creating greater contrast between my shoulders and 25" waist. I am very fond of the shape Comexim 3HCs create. Thank you disneymom ! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
The bra is beautiful. I had requested just for the gore to be reduced and overlapping, it is overlapping but not reduced. With the standard height overlapping gore I get a bit of gaping in the center near the gore. Though not requested, it does have the straps moved in 2cm, I usually request this, but either forgot or decided I would see how it works without that alteration. Probably going to list this one and reorder since the gaping bothers me.

Altered straps,
overlapping gore, straps moved in 2cm
I requested the gore be a total of 5cm (~2 inches), and the gore seems unaltered. The gore is overlapping, and between this and the unaltered gore, the cups have a little too much room near the gore. The straps feel like they're too long. I've adjusted the straps halfway, but they still feel too long. I also requested the straps be narrower, but they're not. The cups feel like they don't have enough depth at the wire.
This model fits a bit larger than my Basic in the same size (75H), though I know that Basic runs tight. I didn't know, however, that Nadin runs a bit large. I probably should have sized down, but out of curiosity ordered the same size since the only Comexim bra I had at that point was the Basic.
Backstory: When I first tried Comexim I was still breastfeeding my last child. I thought that I had normalized, however, and did not think that I would continue to shrink in size. Lesson learned: I did. When I first ordered the Basic I was about a 32G UK sizing. My best ...fit had been Panache Jasmine. My bra arrived six weeks thereafter and actually fit quite well. I couldn't quite fill the tops (which I will get to later) but it did not detract from its appearance and was my best fit at that point. After a few months, I reduced in size down to about a 30FF/32F. Basic was still passable, but I needed new bra's! Enter Nadin.
Fit: knowing that Basic rantai tight I wasn't sure what size to order next. I went ahead and ordered 32h again in this model as well as the Arizona. I had the straps moved inward two centimeters thinking that perhaps it would help with the top of the cup which I couldn't fill properly. After a month the two bras arrived and I realized my mistake. Both were larger. I definitely should have gone down in band or cup. Arizona was way too big, and while Nadine was slightly too big and stretchy in the band it was passible. I could get the band to the last set of hooks, but oddly enough it doesn't ride up, so I have been wearing it until my next comexim order arrives. It also gapes at the top (not too visible under clothing), so I will be trying a three-part half cup next. I still love the plunges but I think I just have too short of roots to truly fill them out all the way. I could probably do with a 75G in Basic, but a 70G in Nadin (if that helps others guessing about fit). Read more 262 more words
I had waited for this bra almost two month! Unfortunately it doesn't fit at all. I asked deeper cups (more specifically 1cm deeper that 75M's cups), but the modification has not been done, I guess. It just fits like 34gg. I think the black trim on the cup may make it smaller.

I ordered this Burgundy from Breakout Bras and it shipped with the tag reading only 32E, no EU sizing listed. The bra is gorgeous - the burgundy material has just enough lustre to not be in-your-face reflective red (I feel that with the cleavage I get, a more vibrant fabric would have been more "in your face" than I was looking for personally), but not to be matte and boring. The fabric is a bit scratchier for me compared to the Sonia, even after washing a few times - I can wear it all day, but I'm happier to take it off than I am for the Sonia. ...For my narrow-rooted, wide-set, FOB breasts, it's either a bit smaller in the cup or a bit more closed in at the top compared to the Sonia 3HC - I get some quadding on my larger side, whereas the Sonia 3HC in what I assume is the equivalent size (UK 32E = EU 70F?) does not give any quadding whatsoever. Like the Sonia, the Burgundy gives me amazing shape and cleavage, has beautiful trim and design, is narrow and immediately projected the way my narrow-root, FOB breasts need, and somehow the narrow gore still isn't a problem for my widely splayed breasts. Given a good fit in other Comexim 3HC styles in 70F, it's either a size or style mismatch for me. Read more 123 more words
I wanted to love this the way I love my other Comexim 3HC's, but it just wasn't happening. I was surprised, as other styles listed as plunges on the website and ordered as 3HC's in the same band and cup size have fit very well; however, I found the cups wider and more open on top in the Honey Cookie than the Sonia and Beauty (plunges ordered as 3HC's). The bra itself was beautiful as expected - ivory lace over a very very pale nude (blush?) satiny fabric. For me, the combination of the low color contrast between the lace and base fabric, slightly greater than usual thickness ...of the lace, sheen of the satiny base material, and ruffle of the lace trim extending past the top cup edge (different from the straight-edged trim on the plunge style shown on the Comexim website), made me less in love with this style in person, though it is a truly beautiful bra that others no doubt would love. Additionally, there was unexpected space in the top of the cups, which added to the prominence of the cup edge under clothing. Still a beautiful and comfortable bra, but not a keeper for me.

This three-part half-cup from Comexim is both incredibly beautiful and incredibly comfortable. It appears to be a gray lace overlay over a lavender base fabric, but is actually a printed microfiber that is beautiful in person - not blurry or muddy. The trim at the top of the cups is sewn on, not printed. The microfiber material gives this a comfort level that I thought I would never find again outside of Victoria's Secret bras - although the cup facing material seems to be the same as other Comexims I have, it's somehow more comfortable given the microfiber up against it. The straps are slightly wider than the ...the usual 5/8" at 3/4" due to the pretty edging. This fits nearly identically to a Comexim Sonia three part half cup I have in the same size, except that the Georgia has a slightly tighter/firmer band - however, I've had the Sonia for a while and worn it frequently so it may just be due to difference in age of the bras. I find the cups in this slight smaller in volume than the Sonia and a Beauty 3HC I have in the same band and cup size, with my larger breast quadding out very slightly - however, I'm wondering if this might be reduced once the band on the Georgia stretches a bit and the cup isn't pulled quite as wide. I was so excited to have a bra in this colorway and Comexim has delivered as usual. Read more 141 more words
The wires are just a little too narrow, but the gore doesn't dig in. The pattern is lovely and doesn't show under most light tops. It doesn't give me as much lift or cleavage as my CH, CHP, and S styles from Ewa Michalak, but it's still more comfortable than my Cleo bras.
Physics. Center full, close-set breasts generate a downward force into a wire at a different location on the wire curve than less center-full breasts. This can cause a bra designed for less center-full breasts to dig in.
The wire issues moved me swiftly to the wireless bra community. However, finding a cup large enough for my breasts put me in 34" and 36" bands on a 28" under bust. Very little support. There are times I need a supportive bra "hug."
How I have missed Comexim's wide, supportive straps, and supportive bands! Comexim makes my favorite bras: the quality of their material selections is excellent.
I've purchased 30+ Comexim bras ...trying to identify one that fits without pushing out of my IMF and biting in as well as possessing a narrow, low gore. I started at a 60HH and went up to a 60M as well as trying 70 and 65 models. Repeatedly, I had the same problem: gore base too wide, not enough center projection, and the wire bit under my most projected breasts.
The deep plunge gore is low enough, but the curve of plunge wires creates a too wide gore base for my center-full breasts. However, Comexim graciously provides alterations. And, narrowing the gore base is one of them.
This cut is minimizing because there isn't as much apex projection as I need.The 65HH creates compression and holds the girls close to my chest. Also, a bit of quadding is present near the inner, top of the cup. But, it is tolerable.
This bra has been owned by three people, shows some signs of wear on the fasteners, but remains especially supportive and firm. This is a testament to Comexim's quality. Impressive. Read more 174 more words
I'm short and narrow rooted, projected, center full, close set and my tissue is quite soft. This is the first of Comexim's regular plunges that I've tried. I had it made as a regular plunge rather than a longline.
Graffiti is very, very soft, and the colors are even brighter and better in person. I'm finding that's a common theme with Comexim's bras: they always look even better in person than they did on the website. I particularly love that this one doesn't feel like its trying to be sexy. It's just fun.
This has decent immediate projection, and I get a good but soft tack at the gore though it doesn't tack as well as the extra deep plunge. The band is also a lot stretchier than the other Comexim/Wellfitting bras I've tried, stretching immediately to 46(!) inches. Fortunately, I find I can shorten bands quite easily on my own.
All in all, I'm very pleased with this, and plan to order more from Comexim very soon!
Me - short and narrow rooted, projected everywhere, center full, soft tissue This bra - totally fits!
The long:
What a beauty! As everyone else who has purchased Ginger has found out, it is far more beautiful in person than in pictures. It's very delicate looking, and they've put the lace on in such a way that there's a really lovely border of whispy lace along the top edge.
The wires are the perfect width for me, and while it isn't as projected at the bottom as the 3HC cut, it's projected enough in this size that it stays mostly in my IMF. It does slide a tiny bit out ...sometime, but it doesn't effect the support or fit of the bra at all, so it doesn't bother me. The low gore tacks nicely, but not as firmly as Panache - and that's a good thing for me, as I find Panache wires to tack so hard they can be painful at times.
The only issues I had with this bra were minor: the band is tight for a 44, which I think is probably because the band is covered in lace, and my tissue is so soft and the gore so low that at first I was falling a bit out of the center. I don't mind the band - I'm finding I actually prefer them to be quite tight - and I can wear it with an extender if I need to. I narrowed the gore at the bottom to fix the other issue, and it seems to have tilted the cup enough that it actually holds my breasts in place quite well.
All in all, I'm glad I tried the extra low plunge, and now I know what alterations to request for next time. Read more 186 more words
You know how you need a really good white bra...but don't want just any old plain one? Well I get the best of both worlds of a gorgeous, anything but basic bra with Comexim Snow. I am going through a cup growth and noticed that my 70 bands aren't as tight as I need and wear out too quickly. On top of that the cups are just a tad small. I decided to go from a 70N to a 65O. This was over all not completely off.
The band is stretchy enough to feel firm-ish, but I feel like I could size down, this is good because I ...expect other bands not to be as stretchy, so I will stick with 65. The look of it is just beautiful. It's my kind of basic, floral white lace over a white base. Thick white straps with embroidered piping on them. The band is plain white no lace which provides smoothing. The look is topped off with a sheer lace only gore and a simple white bow with the ribbon tassels accented with a single clear bead.
The fit is so comfy especially with the cookie pockets, which I add solely for softness. Although I need about a cup up (65P) due to quads I will still wear this bra with no hesitation, until I order a new one. I feel like I need 5 more in various shades of brown white and black lol.
I got straps moved in 3cm, cups reduced, gore narrowed, overlapping, and reduced to 6.5cm/2.5in, cookie pockets. Read more 150 more words

In my regular Comexim size of 70F, I get quadboob and a floating gore when I put it on. I have medium projected boobs with even fulness and tall roots, so I rarely get these issues.
Angel is very different from its cut sibling Comexim Coco (381). Maybe that's due to the fabric used. Angel is made of sturdy power mesh that has no give to it in contrast to stretchy lace of Coco. I get a minimized profile in both, but Coco fits on the larger side, while Angel is way too small and quads all over. Same size, same cut. Bras are weird! (amandafire noted in her review that it's rather closed on top as well, so maybe that's another issue I'm having here, as I have upper fulness and tall roots.)
Apart from that, it's stunningly beautiful and it's great for 'cakes on a plate' cleavage. If you're FoB/short-rooted to even and enjoy unpadded halfcup styles, try it.
Gorgeous on you!!!
