Sizing:
Based on my experience with Dalia Irina Big (K27) and Dalia Anna Big (K27), the K27 5-part cup bra runs 1 cup size big in my size range.
My bra size is 40:6/90:6 or 42:5/95:5 depending on band comfort, but I had to size down to 90:5 = 90E for this model to fit.
Fit/Appearance:
Unique "tulip" cup with 4 bottom parts closed off with a 5th part is effectively an evolved balconette which can accommodate a bunch of projection at the wire and apex. Gives a lifted and rounded profile. Breasts position on the chest wall is pretty central.
The cups are taller/full coverage which makes them great for modesty ... and people with average to taller roots. I gape at the strap a little.
The bra itself is made of satiny basic color fabrics, not too glossy but nice and smooth. I own both the black and the beige colors.
There is embroidered mesh detailing in the gore and right outside the cup before the wing + band section. The embroidered mesh adds decoration but can scratch/irritate the armpit area.
Note - there is side boning in the wing which can and will bend on fuller figures.
The straps are soft and are nearly 30mm - widest straps I have ever seen - meaning the bra will remain comfortable for G+ cups.
However, the strap placement is wide, so it favors wider shoulders.
Availability:
Dalia price range is about $10 cheaper than Comexim.
The manufacturer delivers to the EU.
For US-based customers, using an EU-based parcel forwarding service definitely works.
I have liked http://www.borderlinx.com/US/en/ - the services several shipping addresses, including one in Germany, which borders Poland!
They ship parcels with DHL which meant that shipping did cost $35 BUT my package got from Frankfurt to San Francisco in 4 days!
Emailing the store for shipping inquiries has not worked for me in the past.
