    65R

    Didn't fit

    This bra is a bit of a frankenbra. I ordered it with the following alterations:
    Added cookie pockets
    Lowered gore
    Narrowed gore
    Overlapping gore
    Straps moved in 4cm
    Cup height reduced 3 cm
    Made using wires of size 65P bra

    Overall, these alterations worked really well for me (yielding a narrow and projected bra, with a width of 16.5cm and a depth of 35cm). Unfortunately, I've had a lot of growth lately, and this bra with these alterations fits probably about two or three cup volumes too small for me.

    To start with the review: this bra is much softer than I had expected. I'm not quite sure what I was expecting or how its even different, ... but the whole bra just kind of gives off a softer vibe. The bra itself has much more immediate projection than I usually get with the longlines. The biggest downside to the fact that this bra is a longline is the fact that the band isn't long enough to hit the bottom of my rib cage. Since my ribs are flared out, the band rolls up. I wish the band was longer to sit below my bottom rib in the front. The band on this is pretty TTS and comes with a 5x3 clasp. It's hard to say about the cups, since I've never ordered a bra in this size with these alterations before.

    I don't like the bottoms as much as I had hoped to. The front of them is basically non-stretch, so they're not super comfortable and everything digs in more than most of their other bottoms. I also think the elastic is firmer. I'm not sure if they also sit at a different spot in the back, or if I just notice it more since it digs in. You do also definitely have to be careful doing the zipper.

    Overall, I really like the look of the set but there are some issues with the fit for me

      I'm in a different size range, but I want this bra (and with most of those alterations). ! I love how unique it is. Sorry it didn't fit you.

      Sorry on not fitting! The print on this is fabulous...your pictures are way better than on the site itself.

    • Oh gosh! It's so amazing, I'm so sorry it doesn't fit you!

    Didn't fit

    This bra finally came today after a long wait and to be blunt, it fell very short of my expectations. Its a nice looking bra, and I can fit all of my breast tissue into the cups (kinda). Aside from that, I don't have many positive things to say about it.

    The band is very small, and the cups have little immediate projection and are weirdly shaped. They're pretty flat by the gore, with a ton of extra space by the armpit. It's the same size and has the same alterations as the Graffiti I ordered about 3 weeks before this, and the fit is wildly different.

      Beautiful, but I completely understand what you mean about the different cut. Yikes.

      I definitely see what you mean.
      I am so glad that you all rewiewed your current orders with problems so I could stick to returnable standard cut for my recent order. Also I wanted to order later but I decided to stay in time for Paypals return cost covering, just in case. I'm somewhat nervous what I'll get...

      Wow, that looks exactly the same like the issue I had with my Comexim Mystic (without alterations). This was such a well-fitting bra, but completely useless after they (silently) made these silly alterations. http://www.bratabase.com/adventures/entry/14080/

      bracrastination I read that post when you wrote it but totally forgot about it. It definitely seems similar to what I have going on. The weirdest part about it to me is that my last bra order from them was placed just 3 weeks earlier and that one had no issues.

      Leilani Unfortunately at my size, everything is "custom" so its not returnable even if I don't alter it.

    • Ah fit issues that make the bra just not quite right. Sorry for the not fitting. So frustrating especially since you cannot return it.

    • Ooh, watch the Omega inducing torture device! Comexim is a bit of a gamble, especially with the language barrier. I often end up altering my custom altered orders.

      I'm sorry to hear that you do not even have the option to go for pure standards.
      My fingers are crossed that your next order won't have any bad surprises.
      Please give this feedback also to comexim, even if you cannot return they should know what they send out to costumers at the moment.

      kermitdafrog21 Since the bra I ordered was a different cut, maybe they're not altering all their cuts at once, but gradually.

      I also second Leilani's idea of letting them know that there's something wrong with their bras - in my case they didn't react to it, but the more users complain, the larger the chances that they will listen.

      I will definitely not order again from them soon.
