I quite like the fit of this bra. I've had it for two months now, and the whole cup fits, it's not too high or wide on the sides, and the band is pretty snug. The only thing I don't like is that the gore is a bit too wide. My other Cleo bra doesn't have that problem, though.
I think I am going to stick with Cleo bras, as they seem to be the best fit for my shape and size.

Lovely lace fabric, secure band and narrow wires. I've never gotten a Comexim bra before, though, and I wasn't sure if it would fit. I couldn't tell on the website if it would have stretchy fabric (which is what I was hoping for in a nursing bra), but it does not. I'm normally a 30J or a 70J in Panache or Ewa, so I tried a 70L--their largest cup size--in this model, but alas it was way too small--probably more like a 30H or even a 30GG. For nursing bras, it looks like I'm going to have to splurge and get an Ewa, or order a Kris Line one from Ebay that may or may not fit. So much for finding a bargain-priced nursing bra above an H!

This is such a pretty bra! It's my first Ewa and I was really impressed by how different this is than UK bras. The cups are definitely narrower and the back part of the wire goes straight up on an angle instead of making a curved shape--which is great because this part usually digs in under my armpit, this style holds the side of my breast perfectly in place.
There is definitely more depth in this cup--13.5 inches as opposed to about 12.5 which is normal to see in this size. If you are full all around in a 30J this will definitely work for you. The band ... is stretchy, but not too stretchy, and even though it stretches all the way to 32 inches, I can still wear it on the last hook and I have a 29 inch ribcage. The top of the lace may be a little loose on top for women who are full on bottom, but I think if you have soft breast tissue or full breasts, this will be great for you.
Comfortable fabric, secure straps. The only negative for me is that the straps, which are thicker where they meet the cup, dig into my armpits a bit, but as I have been wearing in the bra the discomfort is waning.

I love this bra! It fits very much like my Cleo Marcie, except the straps are closer to my armpits (which is better than the Marcie). Cute shape, nice felt under the straps. The underwires are sturdy but don't poke. The wires are a bit wide, still, but that doesn't bother me as there is no overspill or anything. Good bra!

This swim suit was good while it fit, but alas, I lost 30 pounds and now it's two sizes too big! I would say that the band fits well, and the cups did work well when I was a 30J in Cleo, but the wires are super wide and I didn't really like how this the padding is. The straps are comfortable and don't dig in.
If you are looking for a suit and you are in the 30J range and are rather full all around, this would be a good option.

Two words: torpedo boobs!
I don't know if it's just my shape, but from the side it makes my boobs look pointy--and almost pointing straight out. from an angle it looks okay, but from the side it's just weird. And under a shirt there is a definite line where the lace meets the rest of the cup material.
The lace is really flat, if there was more room in the lace it would probably look good, but as it is the lace "flattens" the top of your breast into the round cup. Very strange.
Also, the wires are "creaky" in the casings. So, whenever you move you hear groaning noises. Awk!

This is the first bra in a while that seems to fit in the cups. My problem is that the band feels really painfully tight on the bottom, but too loose on the top. On the tightest setting, the lower elastic digs in, but it still slides down my torso over the course of the day--even though I always use the straps with this. Also, the gore is too wide, as you can tell it is pushing down on my breast tissue and pushing them apart where they shouldn't be.
I have low breasts (the bottom root is more than halfway down my arm), no space between ... them and I am a small person (5'4")...according to Bratabase I should be wearing a 30J. I haven't had a chance to try one of those yet because I have no idea what style to look for with my shape.
This bra would probably work for someone with higher set breasts with separation. It is very secure--and I think it is a great fit for women with "full on top" breasts. Your boobs will never fall out of these cups!

The cups were too far apart for my non-separated boobs! I was hoping it would work for me because it is a plunge bra with a more secure top, but my ladies were still falling into the middle.
Also, I didn't fill out the bottom of the cup, so there was wrinkling, and the bottom inch or so of material lay flat against my sternum instead of holding my breast tissue (weird much?!). I don't know what they were thinking because the bottom of the cup is absolutely not deep enough.
The wire height was good, though, and the band was true to size for me. I wish this bra would fit me! It's so pretty. It would probably work for someone with more separation and whose breasts aren't full. Mine are like balloons, so super full...it didn't work out.

This bra is one I haven't tried on in years. Before kids it was a more tight fit along the top. I also had a major growth spurt followed by breast reduction and 2 more kids, and now it fits again, and actually is a little gappy at the top. Beautiful bra, very light with a strong construction.

I just got this in the mail! First bra to perfectly fit, I think!! It's about the same style as the Marcie--its got a thicker band under the cups, and the gore isn't too wide, like on the Lucy. I feel like I'm getting a bit of the "jet boobs" effect, but I am assuming that will recede after I wear it for a bit.
Good quality, comfortable fabric. Everything is front and center, and the wires actually aren't too wide! It's a miracle!
