Bra fitting help » Mild quadding(I think?), can't scoop all of tissue
Comexim » Emanuelle Biustonosz (320) » 65F 30:6
Issue resolved
Very minor quadding, Tail of Spence is fine outside of cups. Overall, fits well but could use a 65G.
Edit:
I noticed more wrinkling in the bottom cups, which <a href="/profile/hd/" class="mentioned-item">yoyobra</a> brought to my attention.
I realized throughout the day that the bottoms, being 7.5"(tops are 8", are too small, and that's what's causing the stretching.
Still, it doesn't show through a tight shirt and it's still super, super comfy so it's no big deal. ^_^
I think my Comexim size is probably 65G, so I hope they work and aren't too big D:
Original problem
I can't scoop and swoop my underarm tissue into the cup, or my full back tissue.
I'm not sure if that means it doesn't quite fit, or if that's just how half cups are supposed to be.In any case, there is slight quadding- I think. I can't actually tell if it's quadding or just pushing my boobs up tbh xD
I'll be keeping this bra for now- it's super comfy and I like the more pushed up look- I just want to know if it fits properly.
I have a 60HH Basic coming today that is supposed to fit like a 65H(unfortunately not G), so I'll try comparing them, but I'm still a little lost on what proper fit looks like, and if your armpit fat is actually supposed to fit in the cups or not D:

helpfulWhat armpit fat??? I don't see any. And in my experience, no you're not supposed to be able to fit armpit skin/fat/whatever into a cup. If it's not breast tissue, it doesn't belong in the bra. If it is truly breast tissue you can't get in there, then you might have a problem.
This does look a bit small, as in I can kinda see some almost-quadding that could be an issue you find yourself re-adjusting frequently, and I imagine it being maybe a size small could be to blame for any side tissue you can't get in there. But nobody's going to arrest you for keeping it and wearing it if you're comfortable in it.

I hear they are fabulous! So far I agree even though I've yet to find the right fit in one. One of these attempts I'll get my size figured out lol

helpfulArmpit fat or Tail of Spence? ToS is breast tissue, but from what I understand doesn't need to be contained in the cup.
I see the bit of spillover from the top down, but head on and from the side I think it looks good.
How does it fit when you're relaxed, the way you would normally stand and breathe?If you're comfortable and not adjusting yourself 300x a day, I see no harm in an imperfect fit.

jlcl119 It's definitely ToS (I didn't realized I had confused the two haha).
Relaxed, it fits, well, alot better than my padded bras that cover the ToS. Just because there's no gaping, but sometimes I experience that in some of my other padded bras. Not so much my Just Flew In, which has 9" depth and covers the ToS, but my Decos I always have extra space relaxed.
I also don't get any more spilling breathing out or anything. Jumping I don't get any movement inside the cups like my Deco Vibe, or fall out. It seems to support really nicely.
Another thing I noticed is that the wires are exactly under and around my tissue, and I just recently noticed that in a lot of my others, the wires will be further underneath and to the sides. :(I guess I'll see how my 65G fits when it comes to see whether I should order more 65F's or G's from Comexim in the future :)
I agree though, there's no problem with such a minor imperfect fit at all :) I've been eyeing this bra on Comexim's website for a while, I'm so happy to finally have it. It's definitely going in my top wear pile :) and possibly replacing my poor Honey and Vibe Decos if I can get myself go let them go xD

helpfulJust to be sure, any chance that you try to swoop and scoop an upper part of your pectoral muscle (http://static1.bigstockphoto.com/thumbs/0/5/2/large2/250036.jpg) into cup? I don't insist but on these your photos it looks like one, and neither fat nor breast tissue. I fail to see any major quads worth mandatory correction, especially when you say the bra is 'super comfy'. Is there an elastic on the top edge of the cups? Sometimes it could be a guilty party in causing quadding, and sometimes easing the elastic or removing it completely could serve as solution. Do wrinkles on cups' bootom near the gore happen off-camera or they are just on photos?

yoyobra It very well could be.
With my arms down, it looks more like fat/tissue/something. It also shrinks with weight loss, so I always assumed it was just fat :)There's no elastic; it's stretch lace, but it doesn't cut in :)
Also, I noticed the wrinkles in the photos too, but I don't see them in person. I think it may have been the way my arm was stretched out causing the material over the padding to wrinkle. I'm not entirely sure.
I took one photo with my self timer, and the wrinkling doesn't appear in that one :)

lcl0706 I think the underarm thing isn't really noticeable because I didn't use my camera timer, so my arms are lifted a bit xD
In any case, it looks very minor.
I've actually been curious about that for a while, because in some articles I've read people saying that sometimes underarm fat is migrated breast tissue. In others, they say it's simply underarm fat xD
That makes cup depth for me confusing, because if it doesn't belong, this and any 8-8.5" depth padded bras should fit perfectly.
If it does belong, 8.5-9" depth padded fit.
Also on ABTF, sometimes I'll see a bra that looks like it fits someone to a T, but others will say they see things that I can't, so I'm all sorts of lost with padded bras. xD
Though I guess maybe in the longrun it really depends on personal preference? Idk.
I guess I'm still not totally sure what proper fit looks like. At least in a padded bra.
In any case, the quadding is sooo slight that it doesn't bother me at all, and I can't imagine readjusting often.
It's also super comfy and the wires are perfect!
I realized that I never posted fit checks for my Decos, and they cover underarm fat. When I jump, I can feel my boobs moving in the Vibe cups, which makes me think that maybe I've been wearing my padded bras all wrong again =x
I think I'm going to post fit checks for all my bras from now on since I'm still so uncertain.
Thanks again for this btw!! I don't think I'm going to be buying another brand ever again(besides Ewa if those work out!)..Comexim is amazing.
