Bra fitting help » Y U No Tack?!
Comexim » Irish Coffee Plunge Bra (335) » 65G 30:7
Issue resolved
Wore it all day with no issues.
So I guess I don't care.Thanks, ladies
Original problem
It doesn't tack. Why doesn't it tack? Everything else is gravy. If I push on the gore I don't quad. Measurements are in my ideal range, on the deeper end even. Band is perfect. Any ideas?

helpfulI don't see the non tacking. I think it looks adorable and about perfect on you! Maybe it's the pictures being non representative.

Honestly, if it's supportive and not uncomfortable and everything else fits fine, I wouldn't worry about it. Comexim's wires are softer and may not hard tack like other UK brands.
-
Yeah, but I thought a soft tack still touched. Maybe floats with movement or whatever.
I'm definitely keeping it. I'm very happy with the fit and support seems good. Plus I know a cup or band up won't work.
It's more the lack of obvious why that bothers me.

helpfulthat happens to me when gores are too wide... so maybe ur's is?? if it doesn't hurt then i'd ignore it or try to narrow the gore (i have to do that on a lot of my bras).

No pain.
Being too wide would make sense, but it isn't wider than my Ingrid or Basic and they touch. -
maybe the fabric is stiffer or something making the gore less malleable??
-
or the wires in the wire channels are toward the armpit sides and need to be moved to the front/gore, they are easy to move around in the channels, i have to re-adjust mine after washings...

I wonder if it's a lack of projection at the gore. I need more bottom immediate space than I do inner space, but I am center full. Looking at the bra itself it looks like it comes away from the gore in a flat line before curving out, my Ingrid curves out immediately, if that makes sense.
I imagine that may resolve with time and wear. While the material is soft, the foam inside does feel stiff, as it should when new.

helpfulI think it looks really good, but if the non-tacking bothers you, you could try bending the wires in towards your body. It worked for me with one of my Comexim bras.

Thank you!
I may do that.
The lack of a tack doesn't bother me as much as not knowing why it's not tacking.

Thank you! I'm just trying to solve the mystery.
The picture just doesn't show it well, but there's zero sternum contact at the top.
