Bellisima first thoughts

Finally, after 5 weeks since shipment, I got my Comexim Bellisima. I'll do a blog review eventually, but this bra is kind of pissing me off. It's freaking gorgeous and the set together is stunning. It's very, very sexy. The lace part of the front of the longline band isn't stretchy like the padded half cup ones have been known to be, but the rest of it is and the wires still float away from my IMF. When I really hoist it up and force them in there, the cup volume is correct. Comexim seems completely unable to anchor cups on a longline band so they stay put where they're supposed to. Cleo mastered it with the Piper, I was so hoping this would be a total win for Comexim. Given that they have released almost nothing but longline bras lately I thought maybe they figured out the issue and I was hoping an unlined longline wouldn't suffer the same problems the padded ones are known to have, but I hoped wrong. It's baffling.

  • Hmm. I got mine, and fit wise it seems a lot better than the joy longline I had. I did request the gore be narrowed.
    If you want to compare, the bottom of the lace section in the front is 4.75 inches across on 65G

  • Mine is a sister size to yours - 60H. It is also 4.75" across the lace section. I mean, the wires don't float as much as the Joy I had, but they float. My gore is overlapped at the top, but I didn't request it to be narrowed throughout. The band has enough wiggle room on my ribcage I could potentially narrow the gore down to the underwires and it would still fit, and I may try that.
