This one never really fit me quite right. I think the band was too tight. It would start off comfortable, but as the day went on I would feel the wires squeezing me below my IMF. Now that I’ve lost a few more pounds, it is just too big for me in the cups.
It seems like it’s wider and shallower than other Comexim half cups I’ve tried. The width is a whole 6 inches, but the depth is what I’d expect for a typical 30:8 bra, not a 30:11.
It’s a very pretty basic bra; I think I would have liked it in a different size, maybe 32:9.
Runs pretty shallow with a lot of space on the sides. However I have a lot of immediate projection on the bottom and sides and the gore still sits on my sternum. The band is not that tight compared to my other 30" bras. The construction seems pretty solid and I like that there are three hooks.
Ordered this through Breakout Bras, so it has the UK size in the tag. I’m not entirely sure what size this would be in Comexim sizing. Wires come up very low on the side, and narrow wings—awesome, one of the few bras I’ve tried where the side of the cup doesn’t run into my armpit on my smaller side. Good immediate projection too, I get a very perky shape in this bra. Came automatically with an overlapping gore. Fits well when I first put it on, but my boobs tend to escape toward the Center through the day. Not sure if I need a size up, or if my soft tissue just needs a higher gore. The pattern is gorgeous.
Band runs a bit loose and I know it stretches a good bit because I have an old beige one that did so. I like a loose 30/tight 32 and this fits the bill. I love the embroidery on the straps - it helps the strap adjustment stay put and reinforces the strength. I have minimal quadding but am overall happy. Hopefully it still fits in 2 months. smh. So far very comfortable. Ordered through sophisticatedpair and could not be more pleased with my experience.
This bra is my best fitting bra, and it's a little embarrassing that I've been wearing it happily for a year and haven't filled in any of the Bratabase information for it yet. I feel like the cups are just the right size, the band is just the right length and tightness, the straps could be inset a little more but actually aren't a problem where they are, and overall it makes me feel comfortable, pretty, and happy. The pattern is subtle but pretty and the colours are nice. My only problem is the wires might be not quite perfect for me. Especially the end of the right side wire seems to dig into my armpit or side when I lean forward sometimes. And lately the bottom of the wires seem to dig into my ribs - though honestly, I think all my bras have felt that way lately. Overall, I'm quite happy with this bra.
This is a cool, vibrant red with shimmering red apples joyfully dancing across a matte, fine mesh. The cups are lined in red cotton, gore wires overlap, and straps have been moved inward. It is a bra that will generate a smile every morning....and night https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
It is too tall for my smaller breast one week per month, but this doesn't show under thin knits. It is shallow enough that I must bend the wires to create more space. This same technique was required for the 65J 3HC which I sold because there wasn't enough extra width to create enough immediate projection. I ...will update when I'm more comfortable with the space near the wire https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
4/15/16: Narrowing the wires from 6.3" to 5.75" has increased the immediate projection. Today, we spent three hours at the zoo with ten children, and I forgot I was wearing a bra. I was completely comfortable. If you require a shorter cup and immediate projection, bending Comexim 3HC wires can dramatically improve your fit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
I'm making a fixture with which I will measure immediate projection; more science for this art (ABTF).
I have so adored this fabric. And, after discovering the comfort of a "narrowed gore," I ordered Tropical Garden with a "narrowed gore." It arrived with an "overlapping gore", but the gore base remained too wide. This causes the wire to sit on my right breast down the length of the gore and along the bottom of my breast. Sigh. I will order again and include a diagram. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
Beautiful, supportive straps, cotton cookie pockets, straps moved inward 2 cm, and an overlapping gore: this is a wonderful bra for narrow, projected, close-set breasts.
I owned this bra, with delightful overlapping gore wires, two weeks ago....
However, I need a narrowed and overlapping gore. So, I ordered a Tropical Garden 3HC with a narrowed gore: it arrived with overlapping gore only. Tropical Garden was less immediately projected. Yikes!!! Thankfully, 65K Eris did not fit its current owner. So, she agreed to sell it back to me. I'm intensely grateful!! I will narrow the overlapping gore and feel happy. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
Finally! A comfortable bra! I could have a bit more room in the cup, but it is a sexy low cut date night bra without creating quadboob since I'm FOB. I'll take it!
This bra is so comfy and fit me perfectly at first. But I'm losing weight and stopping breastfeeding so it quickly became too big. Also my short roots don't fill out the open tops of the cups very well so I had to put in cookies.
Very short, even, slightly narrow, projected, center full, close-set breasts...
Beautiful bra with a delightfully low gore. This was alterted to emulate the Anna Pardal Sophisticate Plunge; excellent cut for my very short, center full, narrow, projected breasts.
I need a different size/wider wire https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
This bra's measurements have been altered
Altered straps,
Lowered gore 1cm, reduced cup height 1cm, overlapping gore, cookie pockets
Gorgeous bra, but as I thought, plunges don't work for my short roots. There is a lot of nice projection here! There's a bit of lovely embroidery on the straps that's hard to see in photos. I'm going to see if I can get it in a 3HC instead.
Ugh This bra is soooooo close to fitting. Bought it from a gal on here, it has straps moved in (game changer!) and overlapping wires (not narrowed gore). It's 1-2 cups small on me. What's remarkable though, is that even though the cup is too small, the wires stay in my IMF! So I am close to figuring out my Comexim size!

This bra was sent to me by mistake. I was supposed to receive a Geisha plunge. Luckily, Comexim was able to identify the mix-up and both me and the other lovely bratabase user were able to exchange for the bras we ordered https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> This bra is a 3 part half cup with cookie pockets, an overlapping gore and the straps moved in. It is a true beauty and I'm so happy to see it return to it's rightful owner.
I love this as a half cup!
