FAQs

What material is the Harper bra made of?

The bra is primarily made of polyester and microfiber, with elegant scalloped lace detailing.

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the smooth finish and comfortable padding make it suitable for everyday wear, especially under fitted clothing where a seamless look is desired.

How do I determine my correct size?

Consult a professional bra fitting service or use the brand's sizing guide, measuring your band size (underbust) and cup size (overbust difference) accurately.

Can I machine wash this bra?

It is recommended to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent to preserve its shape, fabric, and underwire integrity. Avoid machine washing and drying.

What is the purpose of the underwire?

The underwire provides structural support, lifts the bust, and helps to shape the breasts for a desired silhouette.

Does the padding add significant volume?

The padding is designed to enhance shape and provide a smooth contour rather than add significant volume. It aims to create a natural-looking uplift and roundness.

What does 'plunge' mean in the context of this bra?

A plunge bra has cups that are cut lower in the center, designed to work well with low-cut or V-neck tops and dresses, offering support while remaining discreet.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the shoulder straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting comfortably at the base of the ribcage, not too tight or too loose.

Underwire discomfort

Verify the bra size and cup fit. An improperly sized bra can cause the underwire to press uncomfortably. Consider if the underwire style suits your body shape.

Visible lines under clothing

Ensure the bra is completely smooth against the skin. Check that the edges of the cups and band are lying flat. This bra is designed for a smooth finish, so ensure it's positioned correctly.

Bra shifting during wear

Ensure the band is snug but comfortable. The back closure should be fastened on the loosest hook initially, allowing for adjustment as the bra stretches over time. The center gore should lie flat against the sternum.
