Full details

FAQs

How do I determine my correct size?

Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure snugly around your ribcage, just below your bust. Measure your cup size by wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust. Consult the Elomi size chart for precise conversions, paying attention to band and cup size recommendations.

What is the difference between the 2-hook and 3-hook fastening?

The number of hooks corresponds to the band size and cup size. Smaller band/cup combinations typically have a 2-hook fastening, while larger combinations use a 3-hook fastening for added support and durability.

Can I wear this bra for everyday use?

Yes, the Elomi Zarla Underwired Bra is designed for both support and style, making it suitable for everyday wear. Its construction aims to provide comfort and shape throughout the day.

Is the embroidery scratchy?

The embroidery is applied using a flat stitch technique and is designed to lay flat against the fabric, minimizing potential irritation. The top cup features embroidery on a flat stitch for minimal show-through.

What makes the top cup non-stretch?

The non-stretch top cup is a design feature that helps to provide additional support and maintain the bra's shape, preventing the top of the cup from stretching out during wear.

What does 'three section cups plus side support panels' mean?

This refers to the construction of the bra cup, which is divided into three panels. The addition of side support panels helps to draw the breast tissue towards the centre, providing forward shape and enhanced uplift.

What is the best way to store this bra?

To maintain the shape and integrity of the bra, it is best to store it by cupping one bra around the other, rather than folding the cups. This prevents the underwire from becoming misshapen.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your back, as a loose band can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Band riding up

Check if the band is too loose. The band should be snug and level around your torso. Ensure you are using the correct hook fastening for your size.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the underwire channels are sitting correctly against your body, just below the breast tissue. If discomfort persists, the bra size or shape may not be suitable for your body.

Embroidery appears damaged after washing

Ensure you are hand washing gently and avoiding harsh detergents or excessive wringing. Always air dry away from direct heat.
