FAQs

What makes this bra 'non-padded'?

The 'non-padded' design means the bra cups do not contain any extra foam or padding. It relies on the construction of the fabric and the underwire to provide shape, support, and lift.

What is the benefit of a 'plunge' bra?

A plunge bra has a deep neckline and cups that are cut low in the center gore (the part between the cups). This allows you to wear lower-cut tops and dresses without the bra being visible.

How do I know if I have the right band size?

The band should fit snugly but comfortably around your rib cage, sitting parallel to the ground. You should be able to fit two fingers comfortably underneath the band. It should not ride up.

What does 'underwired' mean?

Underwired bras have a thin, semi-circular piece of metal or plastic sewn into the base of each cup. This wire helps to lift, support, and shape the breasts.

Can this bra be worn daily?

Yes, the Lifestyle Plunge Bra is designed for everyday wear, offering both support and comfort. However, rotating bras and proper care will extend its lifespan.

What are the available sizes?

This particular bra is available in a range of sizes, including the 36FF variant. Please refer to the product listing or size chart for the full range of band and cup sizes offered.

How does the 'breathable' feature help?

The breathable fabric allows air to circulate, which helps to wick away moisture and prevent overheating, keeping you feeling cooler and more comfortable throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the bra straps to a more comfortable length. Ensure the bra band is fitting correctly, as an ill-fitting band can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Band riding up

The band may be too large. Try a smaller band size. Ensure the bra is fastened on the loosest hook initially, allowing for adjustment as it stretches.

Cups not fitting properly (gaping or overflowing)

The cup size may not be correct. If there's gaping, try a smaller cup size. If overflowing, try a larger cup size. The band size also affects cup fit.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the band and under the breast tissue. If discomfort persists, the style or size may not be suitable for your body shape.
