This bra is as beautiful in real life as it is in the pictures!

Regarding the construction, this is a 3-part unlined halfcup, with an additional piece of lace under the band, 7cm wide, to make the bra a sort of longline. This construction allows the bra to have a regular band, this way bypassing the issues people often experience with a longline.
The cups are made from one layer of transparent tulle, which looks delicate but is actually super sturdy. It has no stretch. The tulle under the band is a different material and it has 2-way stretch. The band is made from two layers of fabric, soft jersey and stretch tulle. The cups are closed with a thin strap of soft plastic, but I think it might be more for stability purposes, as the cup seems quite open on top to me. The colour is a flattering light taupe with elegant black accents. I ordered the bra with the alteration wing height 11cm, which seems to be the perfect fit for me.

The fit is the usual excellent Comexim 3-part half cup fit - very rounded, centered and uplifted, with lots of projection at the bottom of the cup. I was worried that the longline part would be uncomfortable on my somewhat larger stomach, but since it's stretchy it's actually very comfortable, I don't even notice it during wear. One thing that I did notice is that the embroidery tends to show under a thin shirt, so this bra won't work as a t-shirt bra. The band is a bit on the stretchy/loose side, I could have sized down as I'm already wearing it on the 2nd hook, so if between sizes I would suggest to size down.

I also ordered the matching shorts in size XL. They also run relatively large, the waist measured flat is 40cm and the material is stretchy. One thing I didn't expect is that the crotch is not lined with cotton but with the same jersey that's on the bra band. Overall, a beautiful set!

As an update after wearing it quite frequently in the past months, the band has stretched out quite quickly, at the moment it rides up on me. Especially the jersey material on the inside of the band looks quite sad and stretched out - this material is not too good quality, which is a pity because the lace still looks good.
