This bra has great underwire shape for me, just like the Adele, but also has a lot of gaping at the top of the cup. I think that's caused my a shape mismatch, but I'll probably try a smaller cup because this is the best any underwire has fit me.

Ah, a width that finally fits my narrow roots! I followed the reccomendations to size up twice in the cup for comexim, and it was too much for me. That may be a shape mismatch though, I'll likely order it in H or GG and give it a try, I'd love for this to work for me since for once I'm not getting stabbed in the armpit!

The band is fairly loose even on the tightest hooks. I definitely didn’t need to size up! I usually wear between a 34E-34F and I think a 34FF (BoB sizing) would be perfect in this bra because it does have decent projection.

Ok, seriously, this is probably the most comfiest bra ever. Like another reviewer said, the material feels like pajamas it's so comfy. Topped with the fact that Comexim seriously has the softest/comfiest wires ever along with their straps, I praise them and my breasts, ribs, armpits and shoulders continuously thank them 🙏
The lace is such a stunning lavender color and it's overall lace appearance makes it one gorgeous longline, probably one of my favorites. It doesn't have the gray fabric at the top like shown on site, but I'm actually quite happy they did this even though I didn't request it. I think I like it's appearance better ... without it, especially as it looks a bit like a high quality bralette. (The only thing is that like with every bralette, I find the bottom lace likes to ride up, but I think unfortunately that is just forever a #bigboobproblem )
Like most Comexim's, it gives a nice projected rounded shape from the side/front ala Marie Antoinette. I feel like this has just about the perfect amount of bottom projection.
As always, Comexim's bras are always even more gorgeous in person than on site, always blows me away. I hope Comexim will make bras with this comfy lace in the future, truly the best in comfort and appearance (and quality) 👍

I just got this from another bratabase user but it is too shallow/cups are too small for me. I'm a projected 28F with firm tissue and the gore is floating pretty bad on this one.

In general this bra is a good fit except for the band being too tight. I'm really a 28 band but I sister sized down in Comexim plunges at their recommendation to get a tacking gore. It worked but then the band is too tight for comfort so I'm using an extender. I can wear it without the extender but after a few hours the underwire hurts my ribs. But it's nice to have a bra that is lined and doesn't show under thinner clothing.

This bra is too short & small in the cups for my very projected 28FF/G boobs. I had quadboob and side boob - NOT cute.
I really wish it had fit me, though, since it is so so so pretty 😭😭.

Seems like it could be a comfortable and discreet bra under shirts, difficult to tell proper fit because the band size is too large for me.

It’s a great Polish bra, with a higher apex, narrower wires and better projection.
This is my closest fit so far, I hope that with a band size down I’ll have my first bra ever that fits.

My boobs: 26FF/G ish, but have been fluctuating a lot in the past year. However, I'm always even to FOT, narrow roots, moderately projected, firm tissue, with a decent amount of space in between, but not wide-set.
This bra saved my life when I was at my largest maybe about six months ago. The band was a bit too large for me, but it stayed put well enough on the tightest hooks. At my sort of "baseline" size of 26FF, the cups are much too tall and too large for me, but like I said, I've been fluctuating a lot in the past year, and it was one of ... the only bras to fit me comfortably at my largest. My criticisms are to be expected; band was too large, but manageable on the tightest hooks; wires were a bit too wide; cups are quite tall. This bra is definitely built for a larger frame than I, being quite petite. But it was there for me when I needed it, and for that I am grateful. It's also super gorgeous in real life.

So, I had the Rita made as a 3HC, as with my boobs, I can't do plunges.
Unfortunately, for some reason, this fit very odd from all my other 3HCs. Almost like it wasn't fully made as 3HC and it felt a whole size too small. Shape wise it does look a bit different from my other 3HCs so it's possible it wasn't totally made as a 3HC, or maybe it was just something with the Rita itself or just because it was a size smaller? I might make another order and order it in a 60K as 3HC Longline and see how that goes. It's sad though because I really love the look of the Rita, it looks so fun and elegant so *fingers crossed* it'll work out as a 60K 3HC Longline.

Edit: I'm updating my review because I think I got my sizes mixed up. My recommended size in Comexim is 28G from Breakout Bras which is what is on this label because that's where I got it. That would make it a 60HH in Comexim sizing so that's what I am entering into the database for the sake of comparison with other Comexim bras. I hate that it can't be somehow converted automatically in the database to account for the need to size up 2 sizes in Comexim bras.
Also now that I've broken the bra in a bit it is more comfortable and I don't get uncomfortable ... after a few hours.
This bra is super cute, I love the pattern. But I don't know if I'll find a fit here in any size. I'm a 28E/F. The gore doesn't tack and I'm not sure I completely fill out the top of the cup despite being very full on top. I'm going to sister size down at the recommendation of Breakout Bras, but if that doesn't fit I'm going to chalk this up to a shape mismatch. I can wear this bra but it's uncomfortable after a few hours.

Edit: I bought this from Breakout Bras so the label says 28G, but from Comexim the size would be 60HH.
I am usually a 28E/F and I have ultra high implants and need lots of projection. This bra really pushes my boobs up and together giving me a lot of cleavage, but because it's so tight I can't wear it comfortably for more than a few hours. I might try a cup size up.
I like that the gore overlaps because I'm close set. But it doesn't tack because it's too small for me. There isn't immediate protection at the wire underneath which probably adds to the pushup effect. I do like the rounded shape it gives which is hard to find in most supportive bras for me. I'm hoping sizing up will help.

I am a 28E/F and have implants with a lot of projection. None of my gores actually tack and I'm starting to think it's just my anatomy. But there are certain bras that come very very close and this is one of them. I sister sized down from a lined Comexim plunge and this actually fit better despite being a 26 band. It's not too tight and tacks better than my 60HH lined plunge.

I bought this bra during Comexim's 2021 Black Friday Sale along with Ardea and Adele.
pertinent info
Ribcage: 31 inches
Bust: 36 - 37 inches
I have asymmetry with my left side being the bigger. FOB. Not entirely sure about roots but I think narrow. Close set.
bra appearance
I've been coveting this bra since it first came out which might have been around 2015. It's a cream colored bra with navy lace overlay, navy straps, and navy hook and eye closure. Cream hardware. Cream bows. I'm so jealous of the iterations of Victoria with the C charm at the gore! Nice wide wings. Something that I thought was interesting is that ... the wings for Victoria are a single layer whereas the Ardea and Adele have double layer.
Alterations - asked for a 3HC instead of keeping it as a 2HC. This was the correct call.
fit
The fit is a little bit off. Nothing too bad that would make this bra unwearable. I unfortunately picked the wrong band size. I should have sized up to a 70 but instead went with a 65. While the 65 fits, it was quite tight on initial wearing. Thankfully it did stretch over time however, I do find it uncomfortable at night so will look into getting an extender. The cups are a good fit, they fully encapsulate the tissue. The wire follows the breast tissue. My one issue with the cups are that there is some gaping for both breasts. Quite a bit on my right side (smaller size) especially toward the middle. And the cup sometimes gets into my armpit which makes it annoying so maybe it's too tall or just too big all around. There is just a hint of gaping on the left side. I did try tightening the straps. It neither fixes the issue and the straps just dig in. The gaping is not too noticeable under shirts so it's fine for now. No wrinkling at the bottom of the cups either which leads me to believe the volume is dare I say - perfect. The gore tacks.
Half cups are definitely a good shape fit for me.
I also can't tell if I need narrow wires or if Comexim changed their bras. It's been ages since I bought a Comexim bra and most of my knowledge comes from other reviews so it's hard to say.
for the future
Bra band - definitely size up unless I lose weight
Cups - Not sure how to fix this. I feel like my boobs have most of their weight toward the bottom so everything feels too tall. I could try shorter cups but not sure if that's possible in the half cups. Also, not sure how the band will affect cups since the grading is not quite the same as UK bras.
This is one of those times I wished I lived near a bra store so I can get some assistance with figuring out sizing =(

bra Appearance
Another very cute print from Comexim! Adele is a tan colored bra with an all over bra and flower print. The straps and hardware is black and so are the bows.
Alterations - none.
fit
After reading a lot of reviews, I sized down in the plunge. The bra fits for the most part. Much like the other two bras I reviewed, the band ... is tight. I should have gone with a 70. There is also gaping on both cups mostly toward the center. I'm not entirely sure if there is a shape mismatch with plunges or if any alterations would make a difference. The gaping is a bit noticeable under shirts. The right cup also feels too big because it felt like it was in my armpit. The wires do encapsulate all the tissue so sizing down was a good choice. The volume is correct. The gore tacks.
thoughts
Much like the other bras, while the volume and wire widths are A+, there is gaping at the top of the cups which leads me to believe that sizing down could fix the issue. I do have asymmetry so it might be worth trying to fit the smaller size and deal with muffining rather than deal with gaping. As I mentioned before, I really wish I live near a bra store to assess fit issues.
after washing
the bra fits well after washing. I think the bra slides down which eliminates the gaping on my bigger side. I'm not really bothered by it and like the shape it gives under clothes.

I was attempting to size up a cup from a 28G Comexim half cup that I have and I'm not sure if my size conversion was off or what, but this is way bigger than one cup up and therefore way too big for me unfortunately.
