Hasn't set fit

Alterations: Reduced cups, straps moved in, cookie pockets, 1 cm extra depth at the wire. The first three were done, unsure about the extra depth. But since this fits better than my Lavender with reduced cups only, I think they did add 1 cm—or maybe it's because this cut is less closed than the other plunges.

This is almost perfect, but since I requested the same alterations on two other bras that don't fit (one actually ended up smaller than the first iteration with reduced cups only), I'm not exactly hopeful that this can be replicated. I'll just be satisfied that I finally got the cute bra-print bra, on the fourth try. I've basically been doing all these trials for the bra and bird prints 😂

I really love Comexim, but the hit or miss alterations are getting to me. Especially since I've had three Avocado orders in a row that were pretty great, not always the *perfect* fit bc I need the shortest bras, but all wearable and fancy.

I've been all over the place on what to do, but I think I'm probably better off sticking with 55J 3HC, maybe with extra depth at the wire, to minimize disappointments or—if I ever want to take another chance (probably not lol)—55J plunge with reduced cups (13.5-14 cm cup height seems to be my sweet spot), straps moved in, reduced gore.

Or I'll just shop around some more until I can find a sure thing, because I do like the less cake-y shape of the plunge. I asked about the Ewa Michalak S today, and it seems like the cup height is similar to the Comexim reduced cup plunges in this size range, so maybe I'll try that sometime. Wide-set straps might be worth it for a consistent cut.

Update: Ewa Michalak S starts at 55G. I think that might be too large for me, but I'll keep it in mind.

This bra is not owned any more

    Ah this is the plunge Adele? You were talking about this, not the lavender! So glad you at least got something almost perfect but yeah, it's hard to have the alteration guaranteed each time. I think the basics do run the tiniest bit smaller, even with alterations, that's just how it might be, idk. The other one, no clue why the depth of that one is so small, it's basically a 55H with .5 cm more!

    MeeM_13 Yeah, I decided to keep the Lavender and the 55J 3HC since they're not *that* bad. I think the basics run a little smaller too, but it seems less noticeable in the 3HCs. I'm about over trying plunge alterations now lol. I didn't think moving in the straps could affect depth so much! I might as well stick with the 3HC for the cute prints, and maybe try the Ewa Michalak S someday.

    airymoon I typed out a long reply and it disappeared when I came back :( I'm glad you got 3 good enough bras out of this. I'd definitely be sick of all the alteration combos and whatever. Maybe you'll find luck with 55J 3hcs or plunges with reduced cups, like you said 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Good to know that the depth changes if you ask for the straps moved in. I was thinking to order unlined bras sometime and thought straps moved in would be okay but I think I'd just ask for them to made into 3hcs. Thing about EM is I've not seen it on many smaller/smaller-medium breasts. They say they're all sizes inclusive but even their "small" isn't small enough. In my mind, their bras are only for bigger boobs. If you do order them, I'd love to know how they work out for you!

    I like my 60F CHP! It's probably a better fit on larger days though, but a 60E is too small for me. The straps are as wide set as the Karina I sent you though, which is a bummer. I think I'm going to try a 55FF S soon, so I'll let you know what I think 😂

    There are some old EM reviews here in 26FF/G and sister sizes: https://stackdd.com/?s=ewa+michalak

    How do you find Comexim's 3HC compares to the plunge fit?

  • 3

    The 3HCs are less projected and give me a push-up/cakes on a plate look. The plunges I've tried have been more closed on top, except for this Adele, which is possibly why it fits better.

    ComeAtMe_Bra Forgot to tag you!

    airymoon Thanks! The 55J plunge you sent me fits pretty much perfectly, as does my previous one, but it sounds like the 3HC won't work so well with projected/FOB. I prefer the 3HC "cakes" shape though 😅

    ComeAtMe_Bra That's great! I size up for the 3HCs (55HH plunge vs 55J 3HC) so maybe a 55K would suit you? I'm also projected/FOB.
