Anna Pardal For Comexim » Caramel Latte Sophisticated Balconette » 32H 32:11
Issue resolved
Cup is simply just likely to be too large. Did not realize it is actually 2 cup sizes up from 65J.
Original problem
This bra gapes and the wires feel wide. But 65J Comexim Sonia Plunge Bra feels small in the cups. Wondering which size to order next.
I think I will fix this bra by taking in and hand stitching near the gore. But would like a narrower bra.
This bra bends a little under the breast. Cannot get it to touch the IMF.

So a 32:11 (this bra) is actually two cup sizes up from a 30:10 (the Sonia). Weird, I know, but Anna Pardal models, as well as Comexim from certain retailers such as Breakout Bras, are labeled using UK cup sizing, while Comexim cup letters are: H (8), HH (9), J (10), K (11).
So if this is too big and that was too small, you want something in between, so 32:10 or 30:11. That’s 70J or 65K in Comexim’s size system. Either of them could work depending on how tight you like your bands. Band tightness varies by model, so check the data for whatever model you’re looking at before ordering if that makes a difference to you.
Also keep in mind if you order a half cup, they fit much differently than these plunges. The three-part half cups have more depth at the wire, which might help your issue here of the bra not staying in your IMF (although you don’t mention that being an issue with the Sonia, so it might just be another sign of the Caramel Latte being too large overall). A lot of people find they have to size up in the 3HCs as well. I’m around your size range and fit in 65K 3HC, but more like 65J in plunges.

Sonia bends a little too under IMF, but not enough to bother me. Still better than most other bras.
