I am falling more and more in love with Comexim. I knew I had to have this bra based on appearance only at first but it's SO comfortable. I love that I can have the alterations done to make things more comfortable for myself, like having the straps drawn in. I have fairly narrow shoulders so a lot of the bras I end up with I have to have the straps at an angle or they tear up my underarms which is never pleasant. I've only worn the bra for a small amount of time but there's excellent lift and support that I would expect from a Comexim ...or EM product. Excellent narrow wires and again, the pattern! I think it's very classic and a bit like old lady wall paper but gorgeous all the same. I do think I could have gone with an 85J with the cups reduced since there's a small bit of quadding going on but nothing that would deter me from this size.
Over time I've realized that it just doesn't fit me. It's way too small. Read more 73 more words
I read Comexim runs tight in the band and I'd say they do. It's a good tight though. I don't know how quickly or how much Comexim bands stretch, but over time I could see myself moving down hooks very quickly. An 80 with an extender may have been a better option. I found that the cups were much too tall for me. I have barely any upper fullness so that left some gaping at the top. I did order a size down on my return (YAY Wellfitting!) and if that isn't right, I'll try the HH again with reduced cups and maybe a higher gore. Also, the ...front of the gore bowed out a bit but when I'd push it to my sternum the bra fit almost like a glove. I've also heard that the Basic runs shallower than other Comexims and that may have been a bit of a problem as well. The wires though fit amazingly well into my IF. It was perfect. Now if only I was in Europe and had easier access to Polish made bras! My one problem with the bra itself is that the seams are pretty prominent. If I were wearing a fitted shirt it might be noticeable, especially if it was a light color but the comfort and fit make that a very minimal issue. Read more 117 more words
