FAQs

What is the main advantage of the Elomi Lucie bra's design?

The Elomi Lucie bra's main advantage is its combination of a plunge neckline with robust support, achieved through its banded underwire, three-section cups, and supportive back band, offering a flattering shape without compromising comfort for larger busts.

How does the stretch lace top cup benefit the wearer?

The stretch lace top cup provides flexibility and adapts to the natural shape of the breast, ensuring a comfortable fit that accommodates subtle differences in breast volume or asymmetry, leading to a rounded shape and ease of wear.

What is the purpose of the low centre front?

The low centre front is designed to create a plunging neckline suitable for lower-cut tops and dresses, offering a flattering and modern look without excessive push-up.

How do I know if I have the right band size?

The band should sit horizontally and snugly against your body, at the same level on your back as it is on your front. You should be able to fit no more than two fingers comfortably between the band and your skin. A band that rides up often indicates it's too loose.

How does the hook fastening vary by size?

The Elomi Lucie bra features a 2-hook fastening on sizes 36-44D, 36-42DD, 36-40E, 36-38F, 36FF, 34G, and 32GG. All other sizes come with a 3-hook fastening for added adjustability and support.

Can this bra be machine washed?

It is recommended to hand wash the Elomi Lucie bra in cool water with a mild detergent to preserve the fabric and structure. Machine washing, especially in a machine wash bag on a delicate cycle, is generally discouraged to prolong the bra's life.

What kind of support does the back band offer?

The back band is constructed from stretch fabric overlaid onto powernet, which provides excellent anchorage and support, helping to keep the bra in place, minimize rolling, and distribute weight effectively.

Troubleshooting

Bra band rides up

Ensure the band is fastened on the loosest hook initially and adjust straps. If it continues to ride up, the band may be too large or require replacement.

Straps dig into shoulders

Loosen the shoulder straps. The band might be providing too much support, indicating it could be too loose. Ensure the band is sitting correctly.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the bra is the correct size and the underwire is sitting flat against the ribcage, not on breast tissue. The center gore should also lie flat against the sternum.

Cups gape at the top

The cup size may be too large. Try a smaller cup size. Ensure the stretch lace is lying flat against the breast.
