My Stats: FOB, projected, close set, firm and dense tissue. Size: Normally 28FF, got this in a 28FF
Bra Stats Appearance: plunge style bra that is salon colored with greyish lace and tan/brown colored bows.
Cups: regular projected cups with narrow wires. The cups are tall for my FOB shape and ended up sliding down to get a better fit. I should have gone up a size or 2 in this bra because the wire sits on breast tissue on my larger side and there is some quadding as well.
Band: it's a pretty solid band however, it gets stretchy pretty quickly
Gore: gore is of mid height and tacks
Straps: average distance apart. Not as wide as the Ewa Michalak straps.
Shape Under Clothing: round shape. I really like the shape the Sonia provides under clothes. It's not too in your face. The padding level is just right where I feel protected from nip slips but not so thick that I have to think about what shirt I'm wearing.
The bra is comfortable, but probably like 2-3 cup volumes too small. It also seemed like it might be too shallow for my projected boobs, which I was a bit confused by--this is Comexim, after all--but honestly it's probably that the cup is just too small all around.
This is one of my two favourite bras right now and I miss it when it goes in the wash.
The Good: I'm on the small side of a 28 band and I love Comexim's 60 bands. I wear it quite happily on the loosest hooks. Just like every other Comexim I've had, it feels like a cloud to wear. I'm also pretty narrow and close-set, and the wires on this bra almost exactly follow my IMF, which would be great except...
The Bad: It's not got quite enough immediate projection for me. So I get wrinkling at the base of the cup, but that's not a dealbreaker. The straps are also very far apart, and I see why having the straps moved in 2cm is a popular alteration.
Love this one, the band is just the right amount of firm, barely stretchy at all like I like. The side support is great and really gives a pulled together/forward facing shape rather than an easy west problem I've been used to dealing with. Great cleavage too.
I was hesitant in buying this bra because of the old-lady print, but the fit is phenomenal. I adore the Comexim plunge bras for the deep but narrow wires and projection. The bra provides good coverage without making me feel like my bra comes up to my collarbones. This style bra gives me the best silhouette under any clothing.
I typically wear a 32G, and sized up 2 cup sizes per the recommendations on the Breakout Bras website to a 32H/70K. It fits perfectly.
I have this bra in the 3-part half cup and I think it's really lovely in both styles. I prefer the fit of the plunge because the cups are much more narrow and projected. This bra fits very similarly to other 60K Comexim plunges, so it fits well but the cups are a bit tall on me and the straps are a little widely placed.
I love the look of Ingrid. I don't find this bra fits much differently from other Comexim 60K plunges, except the cups are a bit taller and deeper. For a non-customized Comexim, the fit is pretty good. Cups are taller than I need and the straps are wider placed, but not too bad. I have the matching panties in a size Small and they are really comfy.
The band is 1 too large and the cup 1 too small for me. I like the cut; it's VERY open on top like a half cup. I think it would be lovely on the right size. The color is a yellow leaning ivory with a subtle tonal wavy line pattern to the fabric.
Ohhh I’m so sad 😭 I was so excited for my 60HH Comexim Ingrid but the cup is way too small! Seems funny because my 65HH was too big. It’s such a GORGEOUS bra I think I’ll bother Comexim’s customer service for the second time and exchange it again for a 60J. I’m hoping that the 60J Basic Plunge that’s coming in the mail won’t also be too small, since that model apparently runs small. I know I shouldn’t, but I feel bad that I have to make them go through the hassle of exchanging the same bra twice!
I won’t post a formal fit request since only the cup is too small, but I’m hoping my next (60J) guess for the Ingrid will be right this time. Fingers crossed!
Maybe there’s something the pictures aren’t capturing, but this actually looks pretty good to me!
Sheena oh yeah sorry, I accidentally put the first pic I took as the main one, and I hadn’t scooped and swooped as much as possible in that. I’m gonna go back and delete the ones where I half-assed my scoop & swoop when I get on my laptop! Check the main pic now, it shows the quadboob better.
Oh poop. That's a pain. I hope the plunge fits
Yikes. I am so sorry to hear it didn’t work. It sounds like you are on the right path.
Calluna thanks! Apparently the Ingrid gets really tall in the cup above HH, so I’m wondering if I should ask to have the 60J cup height reduced 2cm. I feel like if the 60J doesn’t work then this bra just won’t work, but I want to keep the closest fit, so maybe having it altered to get the best possible fit would be worth it even though that means it would be nonreturnable? I’d also get the straps moved in while I was at it since I have narrow shoulders.
Reduced cups might also reduce the volume, from what I have heard. I’d suggest looking at the 60Ks that Sonya and rachaelll have and compare the measurements to the 60HH Ingrid. I think both of them have listings which have various alterations. Alternatively, if you are concerned about the potential cup height of 60J, and considering alterations, maybe ask them to make it a 3HC? You can also see the measurements on my 65J, bearing in mind that mine has straps moved in and more depth at the wire.
Alterations seem to add about a cup size or so, so if you get shorter cups and straps moved in, you might want to order a 60K.
Sonya I feel like I need a degree in advanced differential equations to find my size in this! What I plan to do currently is wait for my 60J basic plunge to arrive, then go off of how that fits me knowing that the plunge runs small in the cup.

...and this is why I gave up on Comexim...I like to use my math skills for everything BUT my bra buying. Good luck :)
FWIW, I just looked at the 65HH Jade that I borrowed from Sonya and the 65J Ingrid I swapped one of my bras with her for, and in my experience, the Ingrid cup height is marginally higher (6.9 vs 6.8) if that helps any. Both Comexim plunges are slightly taller than the Ewa plunges, unaltered (you can see the comparison in my Jade pictures). I have yet to order an altered Comexim plunge yet. Too scared!
They have this for under $20 at break out bras right now. Might be worth checking out
FitterSweet thanks! I do think I’m gonna wait on my 60J Basic Plunge for the size reference. I also heard Breakout Bras uses VERY different sizing than ordering straight from Comexim and I’m confused enough with just this already!
And it’s final sale with Breakout Bras for this one. Assuming that it’s available in the desired size.
I know that Comexim Plunges (with reduced cup height and center core for less coverage) fit my FOB average projected breasts really good and this one is no exception. The shape is a little bit minimized as for all Comexims but as always the bra compensates this with incredible wearing comfort. I tend to forget that I am wearing a bra with my Comexims which makes me purchasing this bras again and again while the tend to stretch out a bit quicker than my Ewas.
Fitwise there is nothing special. The band is on the tight side, for the first time ever I extended the bra by one hook ...for comfort. I can close it without problem but as I only need the shape and very little support I choose to wear the bands as loose as possible without riding up. I got wider as well as firmer on the back within the last year, so the extender should be only half way due to the band. As for all Comexims reduced plunges I can hardly wear it with low cut tops, but that is okay. The wires are very narrov. They are the narrowest wires I can wear and i think the became narrower some time ago. 65D Standard Sapphire has wider wires, 60E Reduced Small quail has same narrow wires.
I like the light violet lace over the steel gray, the bra was on my wishlist since it was released. Read more 130 more words
My shape: close set, center full, full on bottom, average/narrow width roots, tall shallow roots, soft tissue.
This is bra is so cute, the band is very stretchy though and I can't find my size in the 30/65 band right now to try! The cup is almost perfect too, it's sorta gives off a minimizing vibe, but it's a very rounded shape and very pretty under tight shirts. It's a tiny bit small and I get quadding at the top which is unfortunate.
Edit to add, the 65J size is an almost perfect fit for me: http://bra.pe/X00K/
When I opened my Comexim package and saw this bra, I was so impressed. It is beautiful. I didn’t realize from the photos that it featured black sequins but this really adds to the appeal as it glitters in the light. Unfortunately, the fit was one big disaster. Firstly, the band is the stretchiest band I have ever experienced so definitely size down. I immediately need to put it on the tightest hooks. It is also very open on top unlike other Comexim 3HC. It is wide and the bottom is shallow. The measurements compared to my other Comexims don’t show the vast difference but it is a completely different fit to the 4 other 3HC Comexims I have owned. I also wonder if the cups are taller. Ultimately, a terrible fit and a disappointing one at that as it is beautiful.
The Mimi has potential to be a good bra for me but this is the biggest disappointment in my current Comexim order. The top of the cup seems to be more closed off than other half cups and if I could get the sizing right, I feel like this could be a good bra for me. I have FOB, projected, centre full, short rooted breasts and like the immediate projection I can get with Comexim 3HC bras. I am slowly figuring out styles and modifications I need to get a well fitting bra. The Mimi looks exactly like the Basic bra I ordered, but dimensions and fit ...are very different as you can see from this link: https://www.bratabase.com/bra/dnac8/
I initially thought the fit was okay for this bra, but when I actually got things properly situated I ended up with quad boob, even with my smaller breast. I thought I may settle into the bra as I wore it, but I still had quadding even after wearing it for several hours. I ordered this with increased depth at the wire and decreased cup height. The cup height seems to be too short for me (not an issue I typically have). The band is stretchy, but the bra still feels tight. The quadding is all towards the centre, so I’m not sure if moving the straps and not reducing the cup height would improve the fit in 80J or if I should try this bra in 80K. If I order 80K, with the straps moved in, should I still reduce the cup height since I’m short rooted? Read more 160 more words
This bra's measurements have been altered
Reduced cup height, 2cm increased depth at the wire.
Kasey17 something else worries me, I mean the wrinkles on the side panels are tell-tale signs of a "downslide", i mean the front portion has enough momentum to cope with forwards bending albeit it des not anchor well vertcally.
Which is why IMHO it "pivots" around the straps attachement to the cups and increases the upper cup back and downwards pressure.
To me it lacks of wings mometup (depth) to transfer workload on the strap. What happens if you decrease straps tension ? Would it slide down or "slouch", like, attmept to ride over the boobs ?
I ordered this a 3HC with increased depth at the wire and decreased cup height. It is a comfortable bra. The only issue is that the top does not always lie flat on my breasts. The fit is pretty good, the band is comfortable snug and overall I am happy with the fit. I regret not requesting having the straps moved in, but the current strap position isn’t a major issue. This is a much better fit than the Mimi I ordered at the same time.

When I ordered this bra I was still very confused about Comexim sizing. It worked for a while when I was more of a small 28E and didn't mind some quadding, but now I'm more of a 28F I'll have to re-order it in another size to get the right fit.
The Good: 1) SO PRETTY. 2) The wires follow my IMF perfectly. They are the perfect combo of narrow without digging and soft without being unsupportive. 3) The 60 band is perfect on the loosest hooks. I cried for joy. I'm a small 28 and finding bands that fit on the loosest hooks is like, my life goal. ...4) The seamed foam is so so soft and yet it covers the nip. HOW?? Magic. 5) This is the first gore ever that has been narrow enough to not sit on ANY of my close-set tissue even though the cups are too small. It comes slightly overlapped. Magic again. 6) The projection is perfect. The round-projected shape is what they are naturally, and they're both firm and stubborn so they will fight anything that doesn't match them. They do not resist the Ingrid.
The Bad: 1) This one's on me. I needed a 60F/G at the time and now I'm probably more of a 60H. There is so much quadding. And yet I still chose to wear it for ages over other bras I had because it was comfy. 2) As a result it also makes my boobs look quite small under shirts (smaller than they already look under shirts.)
The Ugly: There is no ugly. The hype for this bra is real. Excuse me while I go reorder it in 60H. Read more 173 more words
