My shape is short and narrow rooted, soft and low set tending toward full on bottom.

About the bra: This bra is originally a plunge, and I requested it custom as a 3HC with straps moved in 1.5cm. It also came with an overlapping gore, which I was happy about because I forgot to request that modification. The outside facing part of this bra is made of a black satin type material with a red lace overlay. The band is red in the front and black on the sides wrapping around to the clasps, which are red. The inside is a black cotton (no cookie pockets, as I ... didn't request them). The gore is decorated with a black and red rectangular shaped decoration that somehow works with this bra. There are 4 sets of hooks each with 2 clasps. The red straps are fully adjustable, even on my tall frame, and I find the band quite stretchy (especially compared to the Natalie I own). I actually find that this bra is most comfortable and fits me best on the tightest hooks. It measures true to size though for a 30 band. Maybe I just need to size down to a 28 band now after losing weight? For reference, my rib cage does measure around 26.7 tight, 28" snug, and 29"-29.5" loose.

Comfort/shape/fit: I find this 3HC more open on the top than the other 3HCs I've tried (Gemma and Natalie), and I think it may work for someone even to full on top in shape. The cups come more straight up at the top of the breast rather than curling in towards the breast like the others I tried. This bra also gives a nice rounded shape of course, but I don't quite tack (not surprizing really). With a fresh scoop and swoop I fit the cups perfectly, but my soft tissue likes to melt, so we'll see if I get any gaping after a couple hours of wear....So far I've just tried it on. Things feel nice and contained though, so I have a good feeling I'll maintain this nice rounded shape and fit with wear. I do find that the top edge of the cups have a very slight outward curl to them before scooping and swooping, probably because they are so open. But I do find that curl disappears when the band is clasped on the tighter hook, giving me a better fit. It isn't noticeable under a shirt. One of the things I love about Comexim bras is that they are comfortable right out of the box. No pinching, pressure, chaffing, or soreness anywhere.

I ordered this bra from Poland on Oct 10 and received it in Canada on October 26, so cudos to Comexim for getting this to me in record time, especially considering it was a custom order. I'm really impressed, especially since EM charges 135 zloty now to mail to Canada because they say mail from Poland was taking too long. Obviously not, because this arrived in 8 days. I love EM and am currently waiting for an order, but....
