The latest contender in my search for a basic black bra...and yet another that is not meant to be, sadly. The narrowness in the cups wouldn't have been an issue if the cups were large enough and the projection deep enough, but I'm not optimistic that sizing up (1 or 2 sizes, even) will render the projection issue a non-issue. Fit mismatch aside, it's a really cute basic - I love the bow detail at the gore and the fabric is a nice smooth choice that is unlikely to catch like matte microfibers, and isn't too shiny. Style-wise it's perfect, fit and projection-wise, not so much - will be listed here shortly if interested!
This is another Comexim custom-ordered three-part half cup that unfortunately was too small and too shallow in a size that had worked for me in other Comexim 3HC's. It's absolutely gorgeous and one of my biggest non-fitting disappointments to date (but, will be listed soon so hopefully someone else will be able to enjoy it!) - the polka dot net, the tiny sparkle details, it's a really classy looking bra (though may be hard to find undies to match).
The variation I've experienced from my many orders is so frustrating! I have so little faith that any order will fit that I just gave up. Sigh. Hope you have better luck next time!!
I know! I think I've converted to Ewa CHP's but I only have 2 so far, they're more expensive to order directly from, and their selection is always so much more limited on that style than Comexim's range. I think I'm only probably gonna order Comexims via listings here or r/braswap from now on to be honest. Or if, there's like a really, really gorgeous new design (been eyeing up Gilda but need to offload some of my stash first!)
So pretty but runs shallow and small in the cup for a 3HC (although this was a custom order). A really pretty fabric pattern and sweet but not over-the-top trim as many others have noted. Would not reorder in a larger cup size as the projection doesn't seem to be as deep as I need. So sad, it's so pretty and I really wanted it to fit, but just wasn't meant to be! Will be listed for sale here shortly.
The lace on this bra is really unique, a cool black almost flame-like pattern over red underlay. As an HH, it's the largest cup size I own, and I'm not sure if it's the cup size or style, but it's super full coverage compared to my 70F's and 70G's. It's actually somewhat minimizing, which is a nice option if the shirt neckline and transparency allow. At 3/4", the straps are slightly wider than Comexim's usual 0.625", and the accompanying findings make it pretty difficult to adjust the straps. I don't have a need for the repositionable straps, so I can't comment on this functionality, only that I find they occasionally come undone when putting the bra on, though never throughout the day at all. The quality and design is typical of Comexim's high quality and it's an interesting piece to add to my bra wardrobe.

Cookie pockets added. Removable straps. Cups reduced and gore lowered I believe.
I got this bra because my 55H Comexim Basic Plunge is one of my best fitting bras, but I've been having a bit of minor quadding recently. I was hoping a 3HC would be more open on top, especially in a larger size. Unfortunately, the Elena is actually shorter and more closed on top, so I have even more quadding. Everything else about this bra is great: the band is fairly snug with 4 columns of hooks, the wires are the perfect width for me, and the straps are just close enough. This bra is very pretty and the quadding isn't that noticeable, so I'll probably wear it ...a few more times before deciding whether or not I want to keep it.
UPDATE: It's been about two months and I still haven't really worn the Elena. Recently, I've been quadding out of my plunge even more. I know I should probably get rid of both of them and try a larger size, but I just can't bring myself to do it. The fit of the Elena is passable, but the material is kind of scratchy and I'm so afraid of taking the tag off. Maybe one of these days I'll make up my mind.
UPDATE 4/28/17: I tried it on again this morning for the heck of it. Pulled the wires into my IMF and pulled the straps in a little and the fit is so much better. I'm not really sure what happened the first few times I tried this on. I still have some minor quadding because the cups curve in too sharply on top for my tall roots, but it's a lot less noticeable when the straps are in the correct position. I'm wondering if it's related to the fact that the straps have been taken in 2cm. Read more 191 more words
I don't really fill the bottom of the cups because its a little shallow. The band feels nice and firm. The gore with is nice for my close set breasts. The straps barely get long enough for me, they have about 1 inch more they could loosen.
I love this bra. It fits my breasts wonderfully, and I absolutely love the fit and how it looks. Unlike with my 28G - Parfait By Affinitas ยป Charlotte Padded Bra (6901) which I love (underwire broke the other day https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> ), the gore insn't too high. I have teardrop-shaped breasts which generally avoid each other, and this bra lifts them and gives me natural amounts of cleavage. Fits snug - but doesn't strangle, and at first I was worried it was too small because inhaling seemed to cause some tissue to rise over the line of the cup. But after a wear or two, I think I just hadn't swooped and was also used to ill-fitting bras. I am so excited to get another Comexim bra if they all follow a similar shape pattern.
I really love the appearance of this bra, but it's definitely too small. The band fits without the cups in the way, so it's just too small/shallow. I was hoping to get away with it, and it's actually pretty comfortable for a short time, but after a while the cups start to get pushed down and it makes the band feel too tight. Would love to get this bra in a size that fits me, but I'm not really sure what that would be.
I didn't size up on the band, so it fit far better than I expected it do, though it is a bit tight, but the cups are just ridiculously huge at the top for my poor pendulous breasts. There's plenty of room at the wire, so they are happy down there, but this bra just isn't for me. It's too tall, even though the gore and the wings are a nice height, and wants me to have lots of boob where I have almost none. The 85G Emily I got at the same time s only a bit roomy at the top of the cups, so it is probably more a shape issue than size. Too bad, because it is really cute and cheerful.
I've had this bra for several months, and it's a staple in my wardrobe. I ordered it with lowered cups, which is ok for my short roots and low-set breasts, but I find the regular height Comexim plunges more comfortable. It gives great lift for my soft tissue. It stays in my IMF and is comfy all day. I started with an extender, and I'm still on the first hook after several months. The color works as a nude for me and the seams don't show through too bad.
I was fairly certain this bra would be too small in the cups, but I couldn't resist trying it anyway; it's so pretty! Sadly this bra fits closer to a 32F/34E, and is indeed too small in the cups for me.
I also have an issue with the band. I'm not sure if it's caused by the mesh being too stretchy compared to the elastic, but the elastic digs in very painfully. I seem to have this issue to a certain degree with most of the Comexim's I've tried. Pity.
This bra's measurements have been altered
Altered straps,
Straps moved in 2 cm and raised centre gore
This is a very attractive swimsuit and reasonable comfortable to wear, however the the straps have limited adjust ability (due to the placement of strap rings) which impacted on how supportive it was. The clip on the back is good under a wet suit as it lies flat, however i found it had a tendency to rotate as the ends of the band were slightly different widths.
In my opinion this bra fits around a 28D. I wore it a couple of times when I measured a 28DD but had slight quadding. Now it's much too small (measure 28E) but I plan to rebuy it as a 60G.
Well.... I love its looks but the cup shape doesn't match my boobs. It's a shame because this bra gives the killer cleavage....
About the fit, The cups are narrow and too closed for my fot-even boobs. I think it would fit fob breasts better. And the cup size runs large a bit, not a entire size but more projected than other comexims I've tried. Comparing to my current uk size, it fits like 34h/36gg, imo.
For reference, I wear em in 80hh, curvy kate 34hh, cleo 34h~hh.

Altered straps,
Moved in straps 3.5cm, lowered gore, narrowed gore, wider wings
I got this bra secondhand to try out Polish brands, and I am so glad I did!
It is size 80H, which I guess technically translates to a 36FF, but it really fits more like a 32/34 E/F. It is impossibly tight around the band, and I really am amazed I suffered through a 10-hour retail shift without cutting it right off of me, lol. The top of the gore does not tack; I'm not sure if you can see it in the pictures. The cup mostly fits on my smaller left breast, but I seem to be quadding slightly on the right. Also, I always seem to get that annoying front of the armpit gap by the strap/top of the cup-- I wonder if this is just because my boobs seem to sit kind of low on my [short] torso. The underwires are also a bit too narrow for me; you can see where they cut into my tissue a bit.
It's insanely comfortable, top marks for that! The band is very stretchy and so are the straps. Its a good color for spring and summer. The print is reminiscent of water lilies (although they aren't); watery blue, pale green, white and a few pale pink sprinkles. The mint lace across the top is not binding like ribbon can be. Very smooth, the seams are not prominent and this can be a t-shirt bra. Ordered custom from Zathiya (love them); originally ordered a 70HH which was crazy small band and returned for this 75HH which is crazy loose band - brand new I am fastening on the second set of hooks. The cup depth is the same on both because Zathiya custom ordered a 25cm depth for me. It's still not quite enough for my immediate projection, the bottom folds a little on the inner portion of the wire, but its good enough. And so very comfy!
A lovely well-made bra, comfortable, non-digging, just not my size. Although it held me well whole day, the wires are still not wide enough to prevent side quadding.
My second Comexim tryout:The bra is a beautiful and comfortable piece, not exactly a t-shirt bra due to the rich lace, but still pleasant to wear. As being 34FF/G in Fantasie, I have tried a H cup (compared to the G cup in Elena) to see if it suits my size better. The bra is too open in the center and still lacking the space at sides..so I need to size up, the question is how much?
Pretty bra with deep purple lace/mesh over a black base; pink/purple flowers in the purple mesh. The band is slightly too tight for me after a long day these days.
wowww 7.8 inches is the smallest 32/70F cup perimeter I've heard of so far!
