**CUSTOM ORDER: Requested (1) reduced cup height AND (2) higher gore by 2 cm**

Band fits well, comparable to Ewa Michalak 75 bands. The side wings are very wide (which is awesome) and amazingly don't cover my entire underarm! Wires are nice and narrow, but the straps are actually more wide set than other Comexim bras I have/tried. I have had this bra 2 times before, once in this same size with no customizations (standard low gore and taller cups) and once in a smaller cup size (75L) with reduced cup height and standard low gore. The first 75M (standard) was too tall, but the 75L (reduced cups) gave me quadboob and I spilled out the middle -- I thought the perfect fix would be to get a 75M with reduced cups and a higher gore. Well, I may have asked for TOO high of a gore, because to keep the bra a true "plunge", the tops of the cups have to be raised slightly to keep the angle....therefore making the cups a tad too tall for me again! Cups too tall = too much empty space at the top that I cannot fill (and probably contributing to the wide set strap thing.) I have a Comexim Jacqueline in 75M with reduced cups, and I asked for a higher gore by only 1-1.5 cm, and it seems to fit quite nicely. I was hoping a slightly higher gore than that would make me less "jiggly", but it seemed to defeat the purpose that I was attempting. The gore cannot even tack because I am too close set at that point, plus my boobs win the fight with the soft Comexim wires. Oh well, better luck next time!

Quality is very nice -- less luxurious and soft than Ewa Michalak bras -- but still lovely.

**My sizes for reference: UK 32J/JJ; Ewa Michalak Sm 70JJ/75J; Ewa Michalak Pl 70K/75JJ. I am FoB, close set, high on chest, and have soft tissue.**

This bra is not owned any more

  I am a 32J and my favorite bra is the Floris. I keep looking at various foreign bras - I'm really fascinated with your take on this Comexim Basic. Esp on this one, I almost feel like, in going for such a round cup, the bra ends up minimizing and smooshing your breasts towards each other. I used to think I prefered a rounded look like this bra, but the Floris is more torpedo-y but my breasts seem to actually fit that shape better than all the rounded ones I've tried.

  I'm thinking i probably WONT try this bra - I'm sure I'd be spilling out the center, too!

  dbmamaz This particular Comexim didn't work well for me because the cups were too tall and the gore was too short. This was the very first one I ever tried. I've since revised my Comexim orders to include asking for (1) reduced cup height and (2) higher gores, and they work fabulously on me now. I've also lost some weight and have tried a few different sizes as well over the course of my weight loss journey. I've added many more Comexim bras on Bratabase that you can see work quite well for me.

  I do agree that this shape is more of a smooshed/round shape, but I prefer that over torpedo shapes, even though I am very pendulous. I have lots of stretch marks/saggy skin that I am very self-conscious about from early puberty and a lifetime of fluctuating weight, so the uplifted/smooshed affect makes my skin appear more firm.

  We all just have different preferences, of course!

  I actually have the same thing going on - I prefer rounded because it kind of gathers it all up and makes me look firm (mine's more due to rapid growth and breast feeding). I actually altered some EM S bras and they have a more rounded shape like this one (it wasn't intentional, I just removed part of the cup and centered the straps). Interesting because I thought all Comexim bras were "torpedo shaped." (which also fits the shape of my breasts better - I'm fairly certain this is the same for all small underbust/large bust women).
