Product Information

Full details

The Elomi Cate Allure Underwired Full Cup Bra is designed for women seeking sophisticated style and exceptional support, particularly those needing a fuller bust fit. Its key benefit is the no-show lace offering a smooth, contemporary appearance under clothing, while a potential caveat is the need for careful hand washing to maintain its delicate materials. This bra features smooth satin simplex cups, a soft tulle liner for forward shape, double-layer wings for a smooth finish, and a tall back for effective smoothing.

FAQs

What makes the 'no-show lace' different?

The lace is strategically placed between the bra's lining and sheer outer layer. This construction allows the lace texture to be concealed, creating a smooth, seamless appearance under tight-fitting clothing.

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the Elomi Cate Allure is designed for both comfort and support, making it suitable for everyday wear, especially for those who require excellent bust support.

How do I ensure I get the right fit?

For the best fit, measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your rib cage just below your bust, and measure your cup size by measuring around the fullest part of your bust. Consult a professional bra fitter or use the brand's sizing guide for precise measurements.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra must be hand washed only to maintain its shape, support, and delicate fabric integrity. Avoid machine washing and drying.

What is the purpose of the tall chimney back?

The tall chimney back is designed to lie flat against the skin, providing a smoothing effect across the back and helping to prevent the bra from rolling or riding up.

What material is the bra made of?

The bra primarily consists of satin simplex cups with a soft tulle liner in the side cup, and polyester fabrics for the wings and other components.

Does this bra offer good support for larger busts?

Yes, the Elomi Cate Allure is specifically designed by Curvy Kate to offer excellent support and shaping for fuller busts, featuring underwire construction and a multi-part cup design.

Troubleshooting

Bra straps dig into shoulders

Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage. If the band is too loose, the straps will take on too much weight. Adjust the straps to the correct length; they should not be too tight or too loose.

Underwire is uncomfortable or poking

Verify that you have the correct cup size. If the cup is too small, the underwire may be sitting on breast tissue instead of around it. Ensure the bra is positioned correctly, with the underwire sitting snugly in the underbust. If issues persist, consider a different style.

Bra band rides up the back

The band may be too large. Ensure the band is snug and parallel to the floor. The tall chimney back is designed to help prevent this, but a properly fitted band is crucial.

Lace appears through outer layer

This is unlikely with the 'no-show' design. Ensure the garment is not too tight, which could cause the layers to separate unnaturally. Check for any snags or damage to the lace or outer fabric.
