Used to fit

My shape is low set, narrow and short rooted, even to FOB, and soft.

This bra is simply beautiful! I love the lace on this bra so much. I lusted after this bra for quite a while before I actually bought it. Unfortunately, it cuts into my breasts and gives me bubble-boob. It's also quite minimizing, but I was expecting that since my 65HH - Comexim » Coco (381) and 65HH - Comexim » Bridget Half Cup (554) are both minimizing as well. I find the support pretty good in this one, but it's hard to do a great assessment at this point since I've only just tried it on (plus it's too small). The cup shape is nice and round, which I love (hate pointy bras). So, it's a trade off ... rounded and minimized in Comexim, or pointy and projected in other bras. I have soft tissue, so it sort of takes the shape of the bra here.

The straps are nice and wide, and it boasts a lovely 4 x 3 set of hooks. Great, since not all 65HHs I've ordered have that. It also has wider straps, which I like for support. The band is not toooo stretchy, measuring around 29" without stretching it to distortion. I'm sure I could have stretched it more, but the cups were starting to distort at that point, so I called it good. I had this made as a 3HC, which I think gives it a nice shape. I also had the straps moved in 1cm, and the gore is overlapping.

I wouldn't exactly call the material 'soft', but it's very comfortable, as I find all Comexims to be. Overall, beautiful appearance, excellent quality and great comfort.

    Such a beautiful bra. Sorry it’s not a perfect fit.

    Perhaps they are already at maximum length since you mentioned being low-set but if not, you might try loosening the straps? They appear to be quite snug--loosening straps can help relieve minor quadding for me. My breast tissue is also super soft so it does not take much for a cup edge to create a visible indentation!

  • Ooh, I second wendybien’s suggestion. I have definitely been a victim of too tight straps causing quadding.

  • Looks beautiful on you! Too bad about the quadding

  • Ah, shame about the quadding. It's beautiful, isn't it?

  • This looks stunning! I hope you are able to make it work.

  • Thanks all!

    wendybien they are all the way out, unfortunately. It'll be fine if I lose any volume. I tend to fluctuate between two sizes, so maybe it'll fit better in the summer when I tone up. It's so beautiful I don't want to sell it.

    It looks beautiful, even if it is too small. I like the look of yours far better than the look of mine honestly.

    yea MamaPagan i feel like 3HC really makes it look a lot nicer!

    Plus it looks more like a true half cup, instead of a triangle with high cup at the strap, you know?

    Yea I was thinking that too!

    Thanks MamaPagan . I think it looks really good as a 3HC too. I'm really happy with it (just wish it fit).

    As beautiful as it is, it may be worth ordering again in a cup size up. 💙

    Wilderness1 agh yes that's what I feared... next time maybe since they already agreed to a couple customizations, ask them for an extra few cm of strap length. Does the gore tack? If so, maybe you can make the cup edge relax a little bit just by wearing it... I've had bras with a cup edge that was just a little bit too tight/small and indented on me even though the rest of the cup was ok in volume. After wearing a couple times it eased up though, and a few times throughout the day when the materials were warmer from being on the body I tried to sort of gently stretch the edge a bit.

  • wendybien yeah, I was thinking the same thing about ordering the straps longer. I think I need it... not too much, but like 1-2 inches would make a big difference. My 65HH - Comexim » Coco (381) fits a bit too small too, so I probably should have ordered a cup size up, but I was anticipating losing 5-7 pounds, which would have made my boobs a little smaller... only that hasn't happened, lol. I'll have to decide if I hold onto this one and hope I fit it one day, or sell it and order a cup size larger.

    The color and lace design are beautiful. Sorry it’s slightly small up the top.
