Oh Comexim, why do you hate me? As usual, I really wanted this bra to fit. The lace is soft (too soft to be supportive?), the look is lovely, etc. The cups are just so open at the top as I have experienced in other Comexim styles. I used to love long line bras back when my belly was smaller/didn’t sit so high. This one fit fine around my belly, though. Perhaps because it is more like a 38 band than a 36.

I am actually kind of glad the band is so large. I would be tempted to keep this bra and see if I could alter it to make it fit properly, but the band being already on the tightest hooks for the bottom tells me that’s a bad plan.

This bra is not owned any more

  So sad for you it doesn't work, because conceptually this is a beautiful bra!

  There's definitely some scaling issue going wrong here, similar to (but worse than, I think?) your Miss Bee-have.

  Seems like Comexim's 'standard production' for larger sizes suffers with comparable issues to many larger-cup bra manufacturers (straps too wide set, wider wires, excess fabric near the tail of spence etc.).

  Wondering how much custom alterations would help you out here!

  Erica from A Sophisticated Pair did a YouTube on custom Comexim alterations, thought it was interesting. If you are interested...although I've never done custom alterations w them, so I'm not one to give advice.

  too bad about this bra : (, it looks great on your skin tone!

  bubblegum I agree... it just seems like something broke down on how they made the size. I am admittedly not that full on top, but I have never had bras shaped so comically. It’s so funny because holding it as if the strap were one inch over is a world of difference.

  And thank you BraOdyssey for sharing that YouTube link! I have been worried about trying to order it customized without first experimenting myself so I can see how much things need to be moved. I just watched it and I feel so much more informed about what it would actually look like. (I literally never would have gone looking for this because I am not a video person.)
