FAQs

What is a balcony bra?

A balcony bra (also known as a demi-cup bra) typically has cups that are cut horizontally, revealing more of the upper breast. It offers moderate coverage and uplift, creating a rounded shape.

How do I determine my correct bra size?

Measure your band size (around your rib cage, just under the bust) and your cup size (around the fullest part of your bust). It's recommended to consult a sizing guide or get professionally measured for the most accurate fit.

Can I machine wash this bra?

It is recommended to hand wash the bra in cold water with a mild detergent to preserve the delicate fabric and embroidery. Machine washing can damage the materials and shape.

What is the benefit of non-padded cups?

Non-padded cups offer a more natural shape and feel. They allow the fabric to conform to your natural bust shape without adding bulk, which can be preferred for comfort and a less enhanced look.

What does 'underwire' do?

Underwire is a metal or plastic strip sewn into the base of the bra cup. It provides structure, lift, and support to the bust, helping to shape and separate.

What are the gold-toned hardware details?

These refer to the metal adjusters and clasps on the bra straps. They are designed to be durable and add a touch of premium detail to the bra's appearance.

Is this bra suitable for larger busts?

While the underwire and construction offer support, the non-padded balcony style is designed for natural shaping. The effectiveness of support for larger busts can vary per individual. Checking specific size guides and reviews can be helpful.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in or slipping

Adjust the straps to the correct length. Ensure the bra band is fitting snugly, as a loose band can cause straps to bear too much weight and dig in.

Underwire poking out

This usually indicates a fit issue or damage. If the bra is new, double-check the sizing. If worn, the underwire casing may be damaged and the bra may need replacement.

Bra not providing enough support

Ensure the band is fastened on the tightest hook that is still comfortable. The band provides the majority of the support. Check that the cup size is correct and there is no spillage.
