FAQs

Can I wear this bra with a low-back top?

The Harper bra is primarily designed for strapless wear. While the straps are detachable, the back band remains a standard height and may be visible with very low-back designs. It is best suited for outfits where the back band is not exposed.

How much padding does the bra have?

The bra features padded plunge-shaped cups. The padding is designed to provide shaping and lift, offering a moderate level of enhancement rather than significant volume increase.

Is the lace scratchy?

The lace is designed to be elegant, and while generally comfortable, individual sensitivity to lace textures can vary. The microfiber lining in the cups aims to provide a softer feel against the skin.

What outfits is this bra best suited for?

This strapless bra is ideal for formal wear like evening gowns, wedding attire, cocktail dresses, and also for casual wear such as off-the-shoulder tops, sundresses, and bandeau styles.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A properly fitting bra should have the band sitting parallel to the floor, the cups fully enclosing the breast without gapping or spilling, and the underwire resting comfortably against your ribcage. You should not feel pinching or excessive pressure.

Can the detachable straps be replaced with different types?

The bra comes with standard detachable shoulder straps. While you can attach other compatible straps, the intended design is for the included straps or to wear it strapless.

Troubleshooting

Bra slips down or doesn't stay in place.

Ensure the band is snug but comfortable. Check that the straps (if attached) are adjusted correctly. Make sure the bra is the correct size; a band that is too loose is a common cause of slippage.

Straps dig into the shoulders.

Loosen the straps using the adjustment sliders. If using the bra with straps, ensure they are not overtightened or that the bra band is providing adequate support.

Underwire feels uncomfortable or pokes.

Verify the bra is the correct size and that the underwire channels are sitting correctly in the bra crease. Ensure the underwire is not bent or damaged. If discomfort persists, the bra may not be the right fit for your body shape.

Lace appears stretched or damaged.

Handle the bra with care during washing and wearing. Avoid snagging the lace on sharp objects. If damage has occurred, it may be difficult to repair without compromising the appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Attaching Straps: Align the strap attachment points on the bra cup with the corresponding hooks on the bra wings. Secure firmly.
  2. Adjusting Straps: Use the sliders on the straps to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure they are not too tight or too loose.
  3. Hook and Eye Closure: Fasten the hook and eye closure at the back, ensuring it lies flat against your skin.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

  • Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the delicate lace and padding.
  • Avoid Dry Cleaning: Chemical dry cleaning solvents can degrade the materials.
