Used to fit

Ordering from Wellfitting: From buying the bra to getting it was a month. I bought from Wellfitting because they distribute Comexim in my size with free unlimited returns. Comexim is a special order for me, so even though the price ordering directly from Comexim is quite a bit better, getting the right fit for free was amazing. I used their calculator and it was accurate. They also gave me tracking info so I could wait for the package at home today.

Fit: I would never have thought I could fit into a bra with as little apex depth as this one has. Normally I need 15-16 inches. However, because there is lots of room for projection at the bottom and the wires are so narrow I can get away with 14.5 inches! There is very slight wrinkling as the weight of my breasts collapses the cups slightly over the wires but I need that because of how projected I am at the bottom. If I didn't have that I would have folding back at the top of my breasts occurring, like in my Ewa Michalaks.

The gore is nice and low and tacks softly. It overlaps at the top. I feel relatively contained. Because the apex isn't as deep I get pushed in from the side to the center and the deep cut allows for my center full breasts to rest comfortably without touching. There is some gapping/wrinkling of the overlay fabric at the top of the cup but it's not terrible and pretty usual for me and my short breasts. The gapping doesn't show under shirts. On my larger side I might need a very slightly higher cup in the center. There's no quadding but a slight bubbling towards the center. If my center tissue were softer I would not be able to wear this bra. I'll get the regular plunge next and see if that helps.

The wings are surprisingly high but do not chafe! I have no idea how that happens. I think they are high for containment and quickly cut away to the band which is nice and low in the armpit region. Because the wires are nice and narrow the high wings don't bother me. After wearing for a day the wires did bug me but I bent the wires at the wings in so they wouldn't be so tall because they were just barely poking my arms. Now everything feels perfect. The straps are wide and supportive, and spaced just right for my frame. The band is wide with a U back. 4 rows of three hooks and eyes. The band is stretchy and because I have a little under a 100 cm ribcage measurement I opted for the 44 (100 cm) band because I wanted comfort and no extenders. While the 44 fits and is quite comfy, I can fasten it on the last row. Fastening it on the first row doesn't seem to lessen the stability however. Because of my squish I can wear a variety of band sizes without them riding up. If it stretches out this might be problematic. When I get another one I will probably go for the 95/42L. I will order this bra in this size as a longline in the future, however.

Comfort: Supreme. The mesh of the band and its elastic are the same stretch. The mesh is fine grade and soft, although not as fine and soft as Ewa Michalak. The wires are just the right strength and firmness: a little flexible but do not stretch back with the band. The foam is not lined and there is no place for cookies but it is soft and the seams don't itch.

Look: It's a 3 part foam cup with soft shiny stretchy fabric overlay. The seams don't show much under a thin white tshirt. They don't show at all under anything else. The beige is a fairly pale gold and doesn't show much against my pink/white skin. The strap embellishment also stops the adjusters from sliding down. The center bow has a pearl. There are no loose threads and everything is high quality custom loveliness.

I highly recommend this bra and Wellfitting. My needs: lots of immediate projection, lots of room for center fullness, lower gore for touching breasts, narrow wires, short cups and sides to fit my short roots, average spaced slightly stretchy straps. This bra does it all.

Edir: After 1 wash and three full days wearing it, the band now stretches to 50 (!!!) inches, 44 without distorting the wire. However with the hooks on the tightest setting it fits well. This has become my every other day bra, and it's the only one I can wear without pain when my breasts ache. I really love it and I only find it uncomfortable after 8+ hours of wear. I mostly don't think about it when I'm wearing it, and though it does fold over the wire a bit, the wires stay in my IMF all day without messing with it. That's the only bra I have that does that. I think it's amazing and I will be buying more Comexims in the future.

    Fantastic! Look at that fit and looks wonderful on you! Enjoy!

    It looks really good! Have you worn it a full day comfortably? I am curious to know if the cup buckling underneath affects shoulder strap comfort, due to the weight of the breast not getting as much support from beneath. I have a friend in this size range who is wondering whether to try it!

    Wow! I like! Thanks for sharing.

    wendybien not yet. I washed it and plan to wear it all day tomorrow so I will let you know how it feels after a full day of wear. The cup buckling might be specific to me and my pendulousity, however. Ewas also folded over for me.

    Thanks! Buckling IME has everything to do with breast weight and projection and little to do with pendulosity (love that word, haha, sounds like it should be a whimsical children's book series)! So in any size range where the wearer has heavy enough breasts it's a common fit issue. I am just curious to know if it reflects enough of a lack of support from below, that it would cause some pulling on the straps with this specific bra. My friend has complained of painful grooves on her shoulders from ill fitting bras she wore previously, and I really want to steer her specifically to options that will be easy on her shoulders-- so your updates will be super helpful to her!

    Wowza :-) This looks wonderful!!

    wendybien as far as bras go, projection and pendulosity seem to go together, since pendulous breasts just have their projection in a vertical angle rather than a horizontal angle. In fact, I bet most women with hanging breasts need immediate projection because of the shape of their breasts. As mine hang 5 inches from my IMF and I have an omega shape, there is no way to gather them up in a bra without forcing them to double back on themselves. Hence pendulous=projected for me.

    This word made my day ---> pendulosity 👏

    ALL DAY I've been singing "Pen-du-los-i-ty" to the tune of _Synchronicity_ by Police. Just needed to share that with you guys :-D

    wendybien I wore the bra all day today. The cups did wrinkle slightly more and fell a little over the wires but the wires didn't slip down. I had the bra fastened on the tightest hooks (definitely should have gotten that 42L) but the straps pretty loose for comfort. I do not have indentations or red marks from the straps. I would not work out/move around a lot in this bra as it is so plunging and my tissue does bounce. However, I have had no pain today at the band, my ribs, my shoulders, my neck, or other parts of my back. The only bra I own that gives better support is my 42H - Sculptresse » Kitty Full Cup (8045) with modified wires, and I think that's because of all the bottom projection and the V back providing more support across the back. But this bra is softer and the band doesn't dig in. I love it! I am in the largest cup size Wellfitting makes, so if your friend needs bigger cups this won't work for her.

  • Now that's a very comprehensive review ! The challenges and compromises well outlined, hey, I genuinely like to learn from it ! Thanks !
    Downside ? Well, lol, now I also wish to have more in the chest department and experience what you describe ;)

    Have a glorious day,
    Mathy
