This is a favorite bra of mine! The band is a touch bigger than true to size, at least in the bra that I received. Many 26 bands are a little too tight to be comfortable but this one is just right on me. If you are between sizes or prefer tighter bands, size down.
As others have said, the overlay fabric is brilliant blue and the print is interesting. I frequently wear this bra instead of a solid black one.
Excellent shape, uplift, and comfort from Comexim!

Really like this on you and the fit is fab!
* great fit too not oo
Awesome fabric!!!
Oh i love how it looks, understated and elegant, now I want this bra too!
This is the narrowest, most projected Comexim I have ever seen. If you need that in a bra then get this one!
When I bought this about 6 months ago I had to wear it with an extender, and the wire dug into the outside of my bigger boob. Just now after measuring it I decided to bend the wires out. DUH. So, the measurements I took were with the wires as shipped, but the photos are with them bent slightly wider.
The combination of 6 months of breaking in and the wire alteration lets me wear this without an extender! I am not 100% confident that this runs small or tight in the band because it took me so long to measure it. :/ However, the 55E - Comexim » Mirage Plunge Bra (352) that I received in the same order was comfortable without an extender immediately.
I love shiny, soft fabrics and this bra delivers in that department. I use this as a nude bra and when I want to look extra projected.

Beautiful!!! So glad this fits!!
It looks so beautiful on you. It's amazing how nice a well fitting bra looks. I keep reading a lot about Comexim fitting well on women among our size. I can't wait to try some my self. I wish I understood what I needed as well as you do!
I got my bras yesterday! After a quick try on 3 out of 4 fit!
All of them seem to have overlapping gores. I did not request this but it does work for me. Does anyone know if they commonly do this for 55 bands? I don't want my measurements to screw up the database.

rainbrasspetals I ordered directly through Comexim. Interesting how these things happen!
I wear 70H and most if not all the bras I've ordered come with an overlapping gore. I think they may be doing it standard now.

yup, standard on all of mine recently
This is super interesting! At first it struck me as odd because I have been reading alot of other profiles of women in similar sizing, and we "all" seem to think that we are very wide set, which would mean a Gore that overlaps would not be good. It seems Comexim has become a brand for women whom are more close set. I have always thought I was wide set...but since finding BtB and studying my breasts more..I've started to think that maybe I'm not as wide set as I previously thought.
The band is perfect! I can fasten it onto the second hook, but I think it’s comfiest on the loosest at the moment. The shape is very uplifted I guess? I’m not sure how I feel about it. It gives me a lot of cleavage high up and in the centre, but by making it look like I have zero lower-boob tissue. I think the cups are definitely far too shallow for my average-projected breasts. There is maybe 2cm of empty space (there is buckling in the cup visible in the profile photo) at the bottom outer edge of the cup, between where my IMF is and where ... the wire sits, which is probably not helping the flat lower-boob silhouette. I'm quite short rooted, so having my boobs sitting so high on my chest feels / looks a little unusual to me. This is a cupsize smaller than my other best fitting bras, so going up a size may help the bit of quadding I have going on but I don't think it will give me the immediate depth I need. Which is a shame, this is such a beautiful design!

Yoko seems to be one of their shallower bras in general, and a 2HC (which is what I believe is the standard cut for the Yoko) is their shallowest cut. You might have more luck ordering it in a different cut. The 3HC is the same cut as your Roma, and the plunge is the same cut as your Veronique
My Yoko fit the same way sadly, meaning it did not work. I think you could probably request this as a 3HC which would fit far better.
Thanks for this review, I surely love Yoko's design! And I think it does look good on you!
I've been wanting to place my first Comexim order and Yoko is definitely on my list. But the fit would be too shallow for me as well.
Ordering it in 3HC may be a good plan, thanks for the idea 🙂
The 55E is also a 26DD according to the wellfitting website . The cups run 1-2 cups smaller. I am very petite (5'0" 94 lbs. 26.5 under/30.5 on bust) and small chested. I used to wear a 32A before I wore bras that fit me properly. Technically I should be a 28C, but comexim's smallest sizes are 28d and 26dd, so I ordered both (took 3 weeks for it to be processed and shipped to the US. Expect a wait) so i could try them, especially since other's have mentioned that the bras run small.
The 28d fits wonderfully. It's a good amount of tight, but not too ... tight. Incredibly comfortable. Looking at the large cups with very little padding, I was worried it wouldn't fit but it does.
Update on 26DD:
This 26dd bra has a tighter band which can leave red marks and be uncomfortable. If you would like to wear the tightest band possible with my measurements, this would be it. Also, with the tighter the band the more the cups expand, making them seem shallower. This produced a quad-boob effect, but I was able to fix that just by adjusting the straps looser.
Again with either a 26dd, and a 28d, they're a cup size smaller so they are actually really 26d and 28c. Keep that in mind.

On another note, I also recommend 30C the little bra company bras for my measurements, not 28C bras. They run a cup small too! Thanks!

I had the gore lowered on this, which I won't do for future Comexim halfcups. The fit is almost ideal except for some quadboob on my left breast, which I think is due to the blue ribbon sewn into the top of the cups. Even though I measured the band length as 25.5" and my underbust is 26" exactly, I can wear this comfortably and it can stretch 2-3 fingers width while I am wearing it, so I will call this a true 26. The gore width is so narrow the wires overlap, so for people who are close set this will be a plus. As a shallow 26D with average roots and immediate projection needs, this bra is great! Is it a perfect fit? Not completely, but it's so gorgeous I have to keep it. I will just wear it under looser tops.
