This style is old and been reviewed a zillion times. It's not like anyone's gonna find a brand new one from any major retailer so I don't really feel the need to post a giant blog review about it. I am planning on a comparison review between the Comexim and Ewa 3HCs and the Freya 3HCs, because I think it would be interesting to the mass public to see the fit differences with them lined up side-by-side.

As adorable as JFI is, it's really not a shape match for me, and I knew that going in but was hoping I could overlook that. The problem with wearing fabulous bras that fit all day every day is it makes you unable to tolerate anything less than a fabulous fit. This bra is about a half-cup (haha, funny pun) too small on me, but it's obvious the wires are already much wider than I need. It gives cakes-on-a-plate cleavage because it's a bit small, but it also feels like I'm going to fall out of it (even if I really don't). I suppose I'm used to more coverage, even though this is the look some people go for. It's also lacking in depth at the underwire. Too wide, too shallow - story of my life. The band is also too big, and this is pre-owned but it likely would have been too big from the start. The longline aspect of it prevents it from riding up on the tightest hooks, but I wouldn't get much use out of it as is. Sizing up may offer more coverage, but would also result in much too wide wires. Given the fact the wires already bug me, and it's just too shallow, I'm not going to be re-trying Freya half cups again.

Interestingly - at the same time I got this I got a Daydreamer (Lauren based) half cup that had noticeably more projection at the underwire. It was also a 28E and I couldn't pray my way into it, so it went to the stepdaughter.

I will be listing this bra. Overall it's in really good condition for being secondhand.

This bra is not owned any more

  I can believe the Just Flew In longline is too wide and shallow for you, but the profile shot makes you look quite projected! It's amazing. If I hadn't read your review, I might've believed you loved this bra.

  "...28E and I couldn't pray my way into it, so it went to the stepdaughter..."

  Oh man. I tried with that daydreamer too. I've always loved that bra. I tried not scooping & swooping, & it was passable if I stood very still & never planned on moving that day. Sigh. At least it's still in my house ;-D

• It looks amazing!! Sigh--regarding fit.

• looks beautiful! I know what you mean about fit though--now that I have some bras that fit great, I've gotten a lot pickier about what I'll accept fit-wise.

  I look forward to your comparison. E.M. CH fits me significantly better than the others and it will be interesting to see the measurement differences :-) :-)

  I love birds so I've been trying to get ahold of one of these (or the balcony) for years with no luck :(

• I have a 36D with alteted band so that is a 30F now. The just flew in is perfect for a swallow shape. The wires are wonderful and the bra is soooo comfy. Just love it.

• I would very much appreciate a comparison between Polish half-cups and Freya half-cups. The latter fit me pretty well, although the cups are a little wide, so I would be very interested to see what are the similarities and differences with Ewa and Comexim.

  Love4Pollinators I've already done a direct measurement & fit comparison between Comexim 3HC and Ewa CHP. It's here: http://dreamsandunderthings.com/2016/01/28/bra-science-a-direct-comparison-between-ewa-michalak-chp-comexim-3-part-half-cups/

  I think doing one with all 3 will be helpful, if only to show that not all 3-part half cups are the same, i.e. it is somehow possible to make a wide and shallow 3HC thanksfornothing Freya.
