While the ornate lace and luxurious gold-tone accents offer an elegant finish, users should note that the specialized construction requires careful maintenance to preserve the integrity of the supportive components.

FAQs
How do I ensure I have the correct size?
For the best fit, measure your underbust firmly and your bust at the fullest point. Since this is a UK sizing brand, ensure you are using standard UK cup progression.
Can I put this bra in the dryer?
No, heat from a dryer will degrade the elastic in the wings and the straps, significantly shortening the lifespan of the bra.
What is the benefit of the side sling?
The side sling helps support the breast tissue from the side, providing extra lift and preventing the breasts from splaying outward.
Is the lace itchy?
The Estel uses soft-touch lace designed for comfort, though individuals with extremely sensitive skin may prefer wearing a thin camisole underneath.
How does the gold hardware hold up?
The gold-coloured slides are designed to be durable and resistant to rust, provided they are not exposed to harsh chemicals or bleach.
Troubleshooting
Straps slipping off shoulders
Adjust the strap sliders on the back to increase tension and ensure they are tightened to your specific body measurement.
Cup wrinkling or gaping
Ensure the wire is sitting directly in the inframammary fold (the crease beneath the breast) and that the breast tissue is fully scooped into the cup.
Band feels too tight
Try using an extender to allow for natural fabric expansion, or confirm that the gore (the center piece between the cups) is tacking flat against the chest bone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Sculptresse Estel, always start by checking the fit when putting the bra on: hook it on the loosest setting, then adjust the straps so they sit flat against the skin without digging into the shoulders. Since the garment is crafted from polyester and delicate lace, machine washing can damage the elastic components and the gold-toned hardware. We highly recommend hand washing in cool water with a gentle detergent. Lay the bra flat to dry, keeping the cups shaped to maintain the structural integrity of the 4-piece construction. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can break down the elastic fibers over time.
