FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Cate Allure bra's lace design?

The top cup lace is ingeniously sandwiched between the lining and outer layer, creating a 'no-show' effect that ensures a smooth, contemporary appearance with no visible lines, even under tight clothing.

How does the bra provide enhanced support and shape?

It uses smooth satin simplex cups combined with a soft tulle liner in the side cup. This construction promotes forward shaping and offers significant support for a flattering silhouette.

What makes the wings comfortable?

The wings are double-layered and feature encased elastics. This design creates smooth, soft edges that minimize rolling and digging into the skin for superior comfort.

How do I determine my correct size for this bra?

Elomi bras use UK sizing. You'll need to measure your band size (underbust) and bust size (fullest part of the bust) and use these measurements with a size chart to find your UK size. Remember to round up your band measurement if it's an odd number.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra is strictly hand wash only. Use cool water and a mild detergent, then lay flat to dry. Avoid bleach, tumble drying, ironing, and dry cleaning.

What does 'tall chimney back' mean?

The 'tall chimney back' refers to a design feature where the back panel is cut higher. This provides a smoothing effect by distributing pressure over a larger area, creating a seamless look under clothing.

What material is the bra primarily made of?

The cups are 100% Polyester. The wings are made of 59% Polyamide and 41% Elastane. The top cup lining is 100% Polyamide.

Troubleshooting

Bra straps digging in

Ensure the band is fitting correctly (snug but not too tight). Adjust the strap length. If the issue persists, the cup size or band size may need adjustment.

Underwire discomfort

Verify the correct band and cup size. Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the bra's natural curve under the breast. If the underwire is bent or damaged, consider replacing the bra.

Band riding up

The band is likely too loose. Try fastening the bra on the tightest hook. If it still rides up, you may need a smaller band size.

Gapping in the cups

This usually indicates the cup size is too small or the shape is incorrect. Ensure the fabric is smooth against the body and the underwire is positioned correctly. Consider trying a larger cup size or a different style.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Fitting Guide:

Elomi bras are designed using UK sizing. To find your correct size:

  1. Measure your band size: Wrap a soft measuring tape around your torso, directly underneath your bust. If the measurement is an odd number, round up to the next even number. This is your band size.
  2. Measure your bust size: Measure around the fullest part of your bust.
  3. Determine your cup size: Subtract your band size measurement from your bust size measurement. The difference in inches corresponds to your cup size (e.g., 1 inch difference is an A cup, 2 inches is a B cup, and so on, following UK sizing conventions).

Refer to the provided size chart for precise conversion if needed.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand Wash Only: To maintain the integrity and longevity of the fabric and underwire, hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent.
  • Do Not Bleach: Avoid using bleach, as it can damage the delicate materials.
  • Do Not Tumble Dry: Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the fabric and structure.
  • Do Not Dry Clean: This method is not recommended for this garment.
