When I first tried on this bra, my immediate reaction was “Wow, I could put someone’s eye out”! But my guy walked in and said “Wow, that looks GREAT!” So I tried on a blouse to see how it would look in it’s natural habitat (under clothing!). This bra corrals my breasts firmly into place. I like the projected look; it’s slimming, especially in a fitted outfit. A wider underwire allows more spread. I have had this bra for a couple of years, and wear it about once or twice a month. I only hand wash and air dry. The band has stretched only slightly. If I gain a few pounds, I use a bra extender with good results. My shape had changed (gravity!), but this is still my favorite bra. I wouldn’t call it super comfortable, but I like the support. It’s not a “vacation in the tropics” bra, but more of an “out on the town” bra. I have a few @gorsenia bras, but this @75F - Gorsenia » Caren (K447) is my favorite. Bratabase really helped me to understand bras and breasts and how to find the right brand and fit for ME. Some may not like the “corralled” feeling that the narrow underwire provides. Any other narrow wire lovers out there? I’d love to know what your favorite bras are.

• yesss. I love the narrow underwires of Comexim. The first time I tried them, I thought to myself "this bra makes me boobs look so youthful." LOL. And I have not looked back, lol.

  I know some people prefer the wider wires of the UK bras, I do not. I understand it's a matter of preference, but I don't like that shape of pushing the breast tissue to the side and making my breasts look wider. I think it's very aging, TBH. But to each their own...There is really a whole world beyond UK bras. Not sure that many in western world understand that? Lol.

  BraOdyssey : “Me boobs”, I just figured you were a pirate! lol
  Totally agree with you regarding width and spread. I should give @Comexim another shot. Tried once but ordered too small and almost strangled myself.
  I have had the crazy thought of buying narrow wires and replacing those of a wider set bra. Wonder if anyone has had success with this?
  I have yet to find a smooth, unlined bra with narrow wires. @Wacoal Barely There with the front closure comes close. Maybe I’ll use it with narrow wires from an old @Gorsenia to create the “Frankenbra”.
