Issue resolved
wrong shape for myself with too high cups
Original problem
Do I need to go down one or two cup sizes? I was told to order a 65H or HH but site I ordered from listened the bras in UK sizes. They said the 30G was equal to 65HH but that I should size up one cup to 30H if full on top. So now based on this fit I'm wondering if I need to go order the 30G or something smaller

I personally think this is a style issue, rather than a size issue. Looking at the wire placement, if you size down, the cup will be too small and the wire will sit on breast tissue at the sides.
Comexims plunges are quite high cups and not really like a plunge at all. I would consider trying a 3hc instead of sizing down.
I only have the Puime plunge but I do have a small gape on my smaller side, the cups are higher by around 1.5cms than my 3hcs.
Have you done an upside down band test, swoop and scoop, straps at 2 fingers?Updated on February 2, 2021 Flag this

I am by no means a shape expert, perhaps another member has some suggestions based on your measurements? Have you checked this bras measurements against other Comexim plunges of the same size? I remember reading somewhere that they do 2 styles of plunge. The one you have looks very tall in the cups. If you try a 3hc the mimi is very shallow x

No I haven't, I will do that though. Thank you so much, I really appreciate all your suggestions and tips. I think I'll look on their website for more options and such.
This one really is quite tall. It could be about and inch shorter. I think at least, I'm not sure if plunges are supposed to have the same height as a balcony. But thats usually the style that's the right height for me.

Plunges do usually come up higher at the sides. Comexim will reduce the cup height for free but then you can not return. I would try and order a few more styles in the same size just to compare the fit of the shape on you. I think being full on top does not always mean we do not get gaping in tall cups. Your very welcome to any experience I have with fit and Comexim. Its taken me so long to find something that works, I know how difficult it can be for some of us x

That is good advice, I will definitely try different styles and sizes before getting a custom bra from them. I'm glad that they have that option though. Especially when some bras are so close to perfect but miss the mark. If and when I do I will definitely be double and triple checking to make sure I get my alterations as close as possible to the right ones.
Thank you! 😊
Oh! One of these days I'll figure out what style suits 🤣 Ok, I will try a 3hc.
Yes, and however much I scoop I cannot fill. I forgot to lose the straps for the pictures.
What do you think my shape/style is?I've heard people talk about orange in a glass and things like that and I can imagine it but not when I'm looking at myself and trying to figure out why something doesn't work.
