Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Adjusting Straps: Start by adjusting the shoulder straps to a comfortable length. The straps should be snug enough to keep the cups flat against your body, but not so tight that they dig into your shoulders. The criss-cross option involves unclipping the straps from their standard position at the back and re-clipping them to the opposite sides.
- Band Fit: Ensure the band sits horizontally across your back and is not riding up. The majority of your bra's support comes from the band, so it should be firm but comfortable. You should be able to fit two fingers snugly under the band.
- Cup Fit: Your breasts should fill the cups completely without gaping or spilling over at the top or sides. The center gore (the fabric between the cups) should lie flat against your sternum.
Compatibility
This T Shirt Bra is highly compatible with a wide range of clothing, specifically:
- T-shirts and fitted tops: Its smooth design ensures no visible bra lines.
- Lightweight fabrics: Works well under delicate materials where seams might typically show.
- Dresses and blouses with varied necklines: The adjustable straps make it suitable for both standard and criss-cross back styles, accommodating different garment designs.
Care
Proper care will extend the life of your bra and maintain its shape and elasticity.
- Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Avoid Wringing: Do not wring or twist the bra, as this can damage the wires and elastic.
- Air Dry Flat: Lay the bra flat on a clean towel or hang it over a drying rack. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, which can degrade the fabric and elastic. Do not tumble dry.
- Store Properly: Store your bra flat or folded to help maintain its cup shape. Avoid crushing it with other items.
