Comexim Carmen plunge set size 55J which equates UK 26GG and EM PL 55H + S shorty which equates UK 6/8. The following 3 photos feature my custom made bra in a 55 band featuring reduced cups. This is an exquisitely constructed bra with the finest attention to detail. This stunning style is comprised of a lightly padded plunge cut in the lower cup style. The wires are the narrowest that I have ever encountered whilst the cups are deep and feel completely weightless regardless of the light padding. This style features black cotton lining the interior of the cups, whilst the exterior is covered in a delicate ...black lace overlay featuring floral embroidery covering a luxurious red satin base whilst the upper edges of the cups are covered in black lace. The detailing is flat and not visible beneath a blouse. The straps are fully adjustable and the band features 2 hooks.
I should clarify that Comexim do not currently have size labels available for this custom size. Therefore Anna, the company owner, always uses a size tag printed for another order and carefully hand prints the "55J" size on the tag. I can confirm that all of my orders in size 55J are consistently presented in this manner. I am enormously pleased to find a company whom is willing to provide 55 bands upon request!
The cup width measures 13.2cm from tip to tip of the underwire. The cup depth measures 22cm inside of the cup, from each end of the underwire across the deepest line of the cup. I have measured the band as follows. Unstretched in a resting position from clasp to clasp measures exactly 52cm. Fully stretched to the maximum length from clasp to clasp measures exactly 68cm. It would be ideal for you to compare these measurements against one of your newer best fitting bras, as this will be the best method in determining if this will be a good fit for you.

**CUSTOM ORDER WITH: (1) REDUCED CUP HEIGHT & (2) HIGHER GORE**
Will write proper review in time -- just wanted to add the above information since it is important to know when comparing Comexim bras. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />

This is such a beautiful bra. I just needed an extender for this bra to fit. It gives me a more centered shape, especially when I do scoop and swoop. The straps are perfect for me.
This bra's wires are almost too narrow for me (definitely too narrow if I don't scoop and swoop at all, which I think is a first). The cups are definitely a bit too small though, since scooping and swooping gives me a fair amount of quadboob on both sides. If it settles, it looks decent though. Has to be one of the comfiest bras I own, and I think I'm gonna search for a 60HH to compare.
Brand new: Pretty & practical, but cup runs smaller than Snow by a full size. It also seems to emphasize the difference in size between my breasts in a way that the Snow didn't. The color is a good nude if you're pale, but I am concerned about the longevity of the lace overlay; I am afraid it will snag on my jewelry & such more than other fabrics. 3-part, lined cup, fully-adjustable straps, 3 hooks, reasonable price (ordered direct).
It seems like the cups are too small and the wires are too flimsy to have the gore tack. The gore's reallly narrow though, and the channels over lap. so if it were to tack, it seems like it'd be great. I'd love to try this bra in a 60HH, but don't know if I'd ever get the chance to. The material used for the cups also feels a little scratchy, but I didn't remove the tag to wash it (since it didn't fit), so I don't know if it'd soften up with some washes.
This is a beautiful and well constructed bra. The narrow wires were perfect on me, the band size was good, and the band fit quite comfortably. I liked the relatively narrow straps too (0.6", narrower than most bras in my size). However, the cups were both too small on me and the wrong shape. I think 65K would be my best size in Comexim, but this is the third Comexim bra I've tried, and all of them have been absolutely wrong in cup shape for my breasts. The cup apex seems to be too east-west for me, and there is not enough immediate projection, and I get flattened and squished sideways. I think it's time for me to write off Comexim forever.
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, and straps are less on the edge of my shoulders than some other bras. Gore is very low, which is nice for some clothing, but for daily wear this causes me to spill out of the cups, as I am very soft and close set. Cups are too small causing quadboob as well. Straps are on the verge of being too long, as I have them adjusted almost ...to their maximum shortness. Quality is very nice -- less luxurious and soft than Ewa Michalak bras -- but still lovely.
Based on my experience with this bra, I will definitely keep requesting reduced cup height for any future Comexim orders. I would also like to try a higher gore and larger cup size as well. I tried a larger cup size (75M) in this same bra (without any custom requests, so just the "standard" version), but the cup height was incredibly too much for my vertically short, FoB, high set boobs.

Typically wear 28HH, close-set, firm, rounded with even shape. I believe a 60M is about a 28J in UK sizing.
Good in the band and lovely print. The wires are also perfect in their width, even better than Ewa Michalak for me. Comfortably short gore for my close set breasts.
However, the cups do not suit my shape. Initially, the look was great until I realised I had the classic 'orange in a glass' issue. My breast shape is even, so quite full on the bottom and the Comexim padded bras are too shallow at the bottom for me. The cups also come up quite tall which I am not ...used to as I am of average build, and the straps subsequently dig in to my armpit. It is also a real shame that I cannot find a brand that does not make wide straps in these sizes - it makes me wonder if they try them on women of this size.
The cups have collapsed now. I get tissue spilling at the front but also at the center where it is quite open and I naturally possess a lot of tissue around the gore area. I get terrible shape and a lot of weight falls onto my shoulders, causing a lot of back pain. Read more 105 more words

I found it to have great immediate projection and those beautiful narrow Comexim wires. Perhaps this style is meant for someone more even in shape. I can't speak to stretching over time or comfort of fit because I didn't wear it beyond trying on. Unfortunately for me, this is the full cup cut and is at least one, maybe two cup sizes too large for me. I ordered a 70G in this cut and it fits me much better.
I had heard lots of good things about this brand, so really wanted to try it. And I am quite happy with it. It fits well in the equivalent to my 'usual' size of 28ff - in this brand that is a 60h. For me this probably works better than the plunge ewa m styles I have tried. As my breasts are very full and close together in the middle (although not full at the top) I find in many plunge styles I am falling out and need to go up a size. However, as the centre of this bra is higher this seemed to ...help this and it still gives a subtle cleavage without pushing my breasts completely together and overflowing like often happens in more plunging styles. The wires are quite narrow, but for me this didn't seem to be a problem. The back is ok, although i tend to wear it on the middle hook, and could probably comfortably wear it on the tightest too. It is fairly pretty, although I can't quite work out what I think of it? The embroidery might be a bit over the top but this is just a style/preference thing. Also the bow doesn't really sit flat - something that I often find (I think because my breasts are so close together they tend to push the bows askew) so I might just pull this off. (Although I do like the little bows at the straps). I am fairly happy with this style, and will definitely try other Comexim styles too.
After wearing this for several months I thought I should give an update. I think the wires are too narrow for me, and if I scoop myself into the wires completely than I fall out the top with lots of quad boob. However, I can sort of squeeze myself back into the cup so it isn't obvious that the cup is small. In spite of the wires being narrow it is still really comfortable and one of the bras that I wear the most. Also recently the back is feeling firmer. I haven't gained any weight but four some reason my bras are feeling better and firmer which is good, even if I don't know why! Read more 277 more words
Trying to determine my size in comexim, this is not it! I normally wear a 55GG/H in ewa michalak and this is around 2 cup sizes too small. Band is firm. Gorgeous bra, soft material, gorgeous detailing!
I just received this, so review will be pending wear. The color is OK, it's a weird dark pink shade. I'm not a fan, but I don't hate it.
The wires are wonderfully narrow. The cups nice and deep. The wings and wires are short under the arm. Everything I need in a bra. Hopefully it wears well.
I absolutely love this bra. It is so comfortable and I could wear it all day. It is now one of my favorite bras. It really feels like the Cleo Juna that I own in the 28G. I bought this bra from another user.
This is exactly what it says on the label - a nice basic bra. Out of the box, it was very tight, but it stretched out significantly after 2-3 wears. I would never wear a 60 band in EM, but this 60 stretches out to 29". The elastic straps are also very stretchy as is the elastic in the armpit, but I find it comfortable.
I managed to guess my size on the first try. I did this by choosing a 60 band and then calculating the difference between 60 and my most accurate ...bust measurement of 88-89 cm and choosing that size on Comexim's chart. EDIT: I have shrunk in size and this no longer fits. I would guess I was a 60F/G or 65E/F now.
Overall, the shape is minimized compared to an EM bra, but not overly so under clothing. Because of the shape of the cup (it is shallow on the bottom), I get the tiniest bit of quadboob in this size, but it is too slight to go up a cup IMO and it is not visible under clothing. It is labeled as a plunge on the Comexim website, but it has a higher gore than any plunge I've owned - so it is very secure even for soft breasts. The narrow wires with a significant U shape also contribute to increased security.
I think this is a quality bra, but it is one step below EM for me - the fabric looks a little cheap (shiny) and the underwires more easily distort under tension. This could lead to a little bit of a balancing act to find the correct size for someone with larger breasts (who needs a very tight band fit) - on the one hand the band is very stretchy, but on the other the wires will pull out if the band is too tight.
The seams do not show under a thin shirt so it's a good t-shirt bra.
I realize this must come off creepy but I was going through the pictures of the comexim basic and went "oh, I already posted a picture of me in this?" seeing your picture.. and the I was like "No, I'm sure I didn't" but for the longest time I couldn't shake the feeling that it might be me, ha! Looking at a few of your other pics the similarity isn't quite as spot on but you should look at the slightly angled one of you that shows up in the general picture gallery of the bra and my angled pictures of me in my slowianki if you are interested in seeing a possible body dubble. Sorry again if this feels creepy. :)
In your experience, whch bras have more immediate projection? I'm experiencing tissue being squeezed under the wire into my arm pits: ouch.
