FAQs

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the Sculptresse Estel is designed as a daily-wear bra, providing the support and comfort necessary for extended hours of use.

How do I ensure I have the right fit?

The band should be firm but comfortable, and the center gore should lie flat against your body. If the wire sits on your breast tissue, you may need to adjust your cup size.

Can I put this bra in the dryer?

No, heat from a dryer will degrade the elastic and damage the lace. Always air dry your lingerie.

Does the lace top cup provide enough support?

Yes, the lace is designed to be forgiving and comfortable, while the reinforced bottom cups and side slings handle the heavy lifting.

What is the benefit of the 'side sling' design?

The side sling helps move breast tissue from the sides toward the front, creating a more centered, projected, and flattering silhouette.

Are the straps wide enough for heavy breasts?

The Estel is designed with support in mind, and the straps are engineered to distribute weight effectively across the shoulders for a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Straps sliding off shoulders

Adjust the length using the rear sliders to ensure they are snug without digging into the skin.

Underwire poking or discomfort

Ensure the center gore (the piece between the cups) is sitting flush against your sternum; if it lifts, you may need a larger cup size.

Lace snagging

Avoid wearing jewelry or abrasive fabrics directly against the lace and wash in a protective mesh laundry bag if machine washing is absolutely necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Estel bra maintains its structural support, proper care is essential. Always hand wash the garment in cool water using a gentle detergent specifically formulated for lingerie to protect the lace and elastic fibres. Avoid twisting the cups; instead, gently press out excess water and lay the bra flat or hang it to dry in a shaded area. When checking for compatibility, ensure your band size remains snug on the loosest hook to allow for natural elastic relaxation over time. Store the bra flat to prevent the cups from distorting.
