Comexim sizing woes

Is there a difference in sizing between Breakout Bras and ordering direct? I got a 3HC in 75F from Breakout that fit pretty well save for slight gaping on my smaller side. On the recommendation of a Bratabase user, I ordered another 3HC direct from Comexim and had them lower the cups by 2cm... it’s perfect on my smaller side, but my larger side quads and is almost spilling out, with the wire is sitting on breast tissue.
Should I try again with a 75G?

  • Try the bra back on and pull in your breasts aggressively (more so than normal). That is what I had to do when I was fitted at Breakout Bras. They are amazing if you are in the area. I picked up the Gloria and Elise today. If not, the best advice I can give is to pull in all of that tissue (aggressively) and see how many cup sizes you feel you are off. You will get a good feel for it because you know what it should look like. BB is great at taking in returns so long as the bra hasn't been worn. If you are 2 sizes off then definitely go with the G. If it's just one then go with the FF. Play around with the band. I actually had to go down a band size. I knew that sucker was fitting a little too comfy.

  • faeriequeene , hmm. this is interesting. I know you posted a couple months ago, but maprilwilson just responded.
    I was wondering myself if the alteration "lowered cup" affects volume, because I think I have read both. LOL. If I'm reading your ? correctly, you want to know if "lowered cup" alteration affects cup volume in the padded 3HC?

    And it seems like there are always questions about Comexim alterations.

    This is in a difference size, but I was just discovered all of these Comexim reviews. https://brogwithadog.wordpress.com/tag/comexim/ I believe she mostly wears plunges though.

    I know Erica at S.P. (she made a lot of Comexim youTube videos) talks about alterations, but these are mostly the padded plunges. https://youtu.be/METoV07IF6A
