    65P

    Used to fit

    1. I ordered Tropical Garden in 65P with reduced cups, straps moved in 3cm, gore reduced to 6cm, narrowed, and overlapping; 3x4 hooks, cookie pockets, and I requested all over mesh no black section.
    Appearance: it is simply gorgeous the colors are rich without being overpowering and I love how everything else is black because it creates a balanced look. I did notice that the the cookie pockets are a silky smooth material instead of the soft cotton, but I don't mind because the cups inside and out are soft.
    Fit: it fits almost perfectly, the band is perfect on the first set of hooks, the gore lays flat, and ... the cup height is perfect. My only note to self is that there is 3mm of quad near the gore, so I could go up another size, but I honestly don't mind I am very center full and love low gores so I expect it. My cycle is coming soon so we'll see if it goes down, but the cup fits perfectly until it gets to my fullest point. I love this bra and plan to wear it often.

    I also got the matching panties in the szorty-stringi style, which is supposed to be like the picture. They are kind of similar, but they fit nicely against my upside down 💙 shaped bum instead of loosely. I have gained 2" to my hips so I will start ordering a XL in figi and szorty for my 44" hips (39-40" hip bone) and I will also ask for high waisted bottoms.

      I had no idea it is possible to request something like "all over mesh no black section" as an alteration! Looks amazing!

      Lenaxo I saw just one pic of a frontal from years ago where a bra reviewer had it. She didn't leave a review and there was only 2 pics of the bra in that size and nobody reviewed so I don't know who it was and how it came to be that way, so I took a shot and requested it.

      MissAponii That proves it never hurts to ask, very happy for you :)

    60J

    Didn't fit

    For reference, I am projected, FOB, center full, narrow roots, and petite (4'11"). I bought this bra through r/braswap, and the previous owner said it was altered with the straps moved in 4cm and gore lowered 2cm to fit like a 28F (though labeled as 28GG).

    This is my first Comexim, and it's a beautiful bra and in great condition! The moved in straps are amazing, since most of the bras I've tried previously were too wide and cut into my arms. I do get weird wrinkling and emptiness at the top of the cups near the strap, especially on my smaller side. I think this is because ... the cups are quite tall, which gives me a very full coverage look.

    Besides that, everything else is very comfortable. The band feels supportive but not too tight even on the loosest hook despite the used condition. The gore tacks, and the wires don't slide down throughout the day. Not a bad fit for my first Polish bra! Though I will be looking into Comexim bras with lower cups in the future.

      Happy2BraShop confused Thank you!! Love finding a good fit after so many fails!

      That looks great! Do you think the altered 60j was the correct size for you, and the wrinkling was only because the cups were too tall? We have almost the same measurements and I'm trying to figure out my size before ordering.

    • @comeatme I hope so! I recently ordered two 60J plunges from Comexim with a lot of alterations, so we'll see how those fit!

    • ComeAtMe_Bra Sorry, I didn't tag you back correctly!

    Didn't fit

    Man, this bra would be awesome if I hadn't ordered it with reduced cups. I've had slight fit issues with other Comexims, and I thought maybe it was the cups being too tall; I was wrong. the wire cuts into the sides of my breasts like crazy, making it unwearable. I also ordered this with narrowed straps (4 cm) and I think that has something to do with the weird fit, as well; perhaps 4cm is too much? I wish it was easier to get these ordered so I could figure out what works best!

    • I haven't ordered any altered Comexim bras myself (yet), but on some blog reviews I have read, the ladies had the straps moved in 2cm and were happy with that.

    • The wait for alterations is difficult. I found Tropical Garden shorter than several other models.

    • Love4Pollinators I was going to say the same- the tropical garden is shorter than other styles.

    • I love that bra. Sorry it didn't fit. I wish I tried it knowing that it's shorter than the others.

    70F

    Fits

    I got this one together with 70F - Comexim » Lorraine Biustonosz (316) . Gives nice rounded shape, also small cleavage. Although I need 1 extra set of eyes, as the band is just tiny bit too tight - nothing major. Cups fit really well as all my comexims in 70F - no quadding and just tiny bit of gapping on the smaller side. Not sure if I will keep it as I have plenty of dark bras, but will wait for new EM and Comexim colecctions and then Ill decide : )

    70L

    Used to fit

    My bra was ordered with special requests: (1) reduced cup height (shorter cups) and (2) higher gore. The gore did not end up being as high as I normally like, unfortunately, so I do spill out of it when worn for an extended period of time. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" />

    I previously had this bra in 75L - Comexim » Tropical Garden (191) , but I have recently lost some weight (and some boob volume.) Tropical Garden has been one of my all-time favorite bras aesthetically, so when my other one became too large, I immediately ordered this one in a smaller size. ... I knew it was an older style, so I didn't want to risk not ever having it again! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

    This (and all Comexim plunges) are great if you need narrow wires, deep cups, and shorter underwires on the sides (seriously, this bra does not stab me in the underarms at all.) The strap placement is also very comfortable as well. The shape is very uplifted, front-and-center, and naturally rounded, plus it makes my soft, FoB boobs look great, which is no simple feat.

    • Just want to clarify -- you had the gore raised by nine centimeters? I've had issues with raised gores and lowered cup heights, similar to what you listed in your review here: http://www.bratabase.com/bra/dlet5/

      My assumption was to do away with the alterations altogether, but maybe the solution is even more of an alteration?

    • No, I requested my gore to measure 9 cm total, which is higher than their standard gore.

    • The combo of alterations that I request now works quite well for me (reduced cup height, gore height between 9-10 cm, and always 3x3 hooks.) I have lost some weight since I wrote the reviews for the 75M bras, so even though I could never get the formula right at that size, thankfully I've figured it out at my new size. I've also accepted that Comexim bras will never give me the "boobs of steel" feeling of support, so I only wear them on weekends or evenings when I'm less active. I think I was trying to achieve that feeling originally when I was trying to get the gore super high. I just wear other bras when I need more support (like my EM S bras or Panache Sport, even.) Hope that helps!

      Thank you so much for your feedback! My boobs are kind of all over the place right now, with some weight gain, tissue migration, and absolute inability to stop growing, so what initially worked for me with Comexim no longer does. I'm in the process now of placing an order with Anna again, and hopefully this time will be more successful. I'm going for a couple different sizes and no alterations (other than the 3 hook fastening, of course!), and keeping my boobs crossed. Thanks, again, and congrats on your weight loss -- assuming it's something for which you strove to accomplish.

    • Thanks! Yes, I have been working hard to get my weight down. Still have a bit more to go. :) Good luck! I hope your next set of bras is a success.

    Cleavage! Oh my. I hardly ever have cleavage and this is exceptional (admittedly I suspect I could go up a cup size without gaping, but this does not have quadboob), this bra brings you up front and centre! And soooo comfortable. If it weren't padded I would wear it always, but it can get a bit too warm for padded bras 'round here (45C, anyone?). Not the most expensive looking bra, but well finished and not expensive.

    65HH

    Didn't fit

    Though I haven't reviewed them on here, my current best fitting bras are @Cleo meg is 30G (with an extender-- slightly too big in cup) and @Cleo melissa in 32FF (slightly too small in cup). There's also my Bravissimo @Starburst that fits well in 28H (except that I need an extender). I consider myself a small-ish 30GG. I've been trying to figure out my Comexim size for a while, and I thought this was a good guess after trying on a Green Velvet in 70HH that was MUCH too big (at least two cups)-- as a smaller cup didn't make sense based ... on conversions I looked at.

    This slightly too small in the cup, and the wires are a little too narrow-- the just reach my rib-cage, and don't extend past at all (and I do have a small amount of breast tissue along the side that I can see is not fitting into the cups). The cups are a bit too tall. I think the size I need is a 65J with lower cups-- but it's possible that a 70HH would also work (I think Green Velvet may run large).

    Compared to other plunge bras, I found the separation between cups perfect, and the gore height nice and comfortable-- enough to make it feel supportive, but low enough that it certainly wouldn't show under most shirts. I do have some minimal quad-boob because it's slightly too small for me, but I can reduce this by loosing the straps. And I WANT TO, because this bra is very comfortable, and it's GORGEOUS and feels well made. The band is a true 30 band-- it stretches just to 30 inches, and is comfortable on the loosest hook. The fabric inside the cups is smooth and comfortable, and though the strap isn't very stretchy and is fairly tight, it feels really comfortable. The strap placement is also excellent for my fairly narrow shoulders.

    The cleavage is really intense, but I think that's because it's too small in the cup-- which is good for me, because I prefer not to have too much crazy cleavage going on. I tried on a shirt briefly, and wasn't able to see seams at all... but due to the coloration of this bra, I'm sure it will show through thin or light colored shirts.

    All in all, this bra seems to be fantastic so far, and I look forward to wearing it!

    60H

    Didn't fit

    This bra runs smaller in the band than I anticipated, much like my Ginger plunge. On the outermost hooks it felt fine against my ribs, but the gore told a different story. I added an extender, but that still wasn't quite enough. It took a gentle bend of the gore to totally stop the poking, but now it's basically perfect.


    Edit February 2024)
    Much the same as the Ginger bra I have, this one has stretched out a bit over time and fits great without an extender. The migration on my later side over time is more prominent, but it's okay. I might try to bend the wires a little since they are a little wide, so maybe that will help the fit and reduce moving.

    Fits

    I requested the gore to overlap and it came that way but possibly that’s how this model is made anyways. The shape is round and lifted. The band is snug, fits my 26 back perfectly and I can start with the first/longest set of hook. The cups are shallow at the wire so I get some empty space there but other than that the fit is perfect I think. And it’s so comfortable I could sleep in it. I love comexim.

    75H

    Didn't fit

    Overall, this bra fits pretty well.

    I ordered a 75 band for my 32" ribcage as I worried the 70 would be too snug. I am using the 2nd set of hooks (out of 4 total); I think in retrospect I should have gone for the 70 (I like a snug fit). The gore tacks well and the straps are in enough so that they do not cut into my arms.

    My only issue with this bra is the wires on the sides; they are a bit lower than I prefer and some tissue does escape with movement. If these wires were just a bit taller this bra would be perfect.

    Appearance wise, this bra is beautiful. The fabric is soft and comfortable. This bra gives forward projection and 'cakes on a plate' cleavage that Polish bras are known for.

    Overall, while not a perfect fit, it's good enough.
