Hasn't set fit

This is my 5th Comexim bra and 2nd Elena 3HC.

I have tried several sizes. When I wore a 70HH size, top of cup is fit but I need more bottom volume. When 70J, bottom of cup is OK but there is empty space in cup top. None of the sizes fit me. It is because my highly short and bottom projected breast. Anyone who has a same problem like me knows how the lack of cup bottom volume makes people uncomfortable.


I did a search to solve this problem and I found one reviewer who requested 'deeper cup option'. I decided that I should try it. I ordered 70HH ELENA 3HC bra and asked 2cm deeper cups at the bottom of the cups, near the wires.

And result...? It is a 70HH bra that has 70J cup bottom volume! And fits me!

I took a picture of this bra with my old Elena 3hc 70HH. Beige one is my old Elena 3hc 70hh without deeper cup option. Black one is my new Elena 3hc 70HH with deeper cup. Can you see a difference?

Here are the measurement.
Depth in bottom : bra with deeper cup is 23cm, bra without deeper cup is 21cm
Depth in top : bra with deeper cup is 23cm, bra without is 22.5cm




======
My type : 30FF/G UK, short, narrow to average root, FOB, projected especially bottom

Alternation :
1. Made in a 3HC cut 2. Reduced cup height 3. Straps moved in 2cm 4. Cookie pockets added 5. Overlapped gore/ narrow gore
PLUS,
6. 2cm deeper cups especially at the bottom of the cups, near the wires

    Love it! Great fit.

    This is amazing. Do you think they made the entire cup deeper rather than just the bottom? It's kind of hard to tell by the photo. I'm trying to get them to do a plunge with a deeper cup because I have the same problem. Did you order the alteration in English?

    It is hard to say. But this is measurement.
    Depth in bottom : black is 23cm, beige is 21cm
    Depth in top : black is 23cm, beige is 22.5cm

    Definitely black one is a little bigger overall . But it is smaller than 70J overall(I also have 70J size)

    And I used only English when ordered.

  • Thank you for sharing, May_June! I have the same fit issue with Comexim, too. Perhaps I will order again with the alterations you specified :-)

    So that might have been me May_June , or FoxTaylor who posted about Comexim making bras with specific depth on request (custom order). I had Zathiya Lingerie do the asking for me, and I am sure she did it in English, but every bra had the requested 25cm depth across the apex, which resulted in them being deep enough at the wire but not too big at the top. I did not ask for any other alterations which might have made the cup smaller (like straps moved in or reuced cup). They did come with overlapping gore and cookie pockets, which I did not ask for. Previously I have not been able to wear Comexim because they are too shallow - unless I ordered a much too big size and added a pad somewhere to push up and fill in the empty top. Yes, they will do it!
