FAQs

What is a basque?

A basque is a type of lingerie that resembles a corset or a longline bra, typically extending to the waist or hips, often featuring suspender straps for stockings. It is designed to shape and contour the body.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific size chart for accurate measurements. Measure your band size (underbust) and cup size (full bust). The Marseille Wired Basque is available in various band and cup sizes to ensure a proper fit.

Can the suspender straps be removed?

The product description does not specify if the suspender straps are removable. Typically, they are a fixed feature of the basque design.

What material is the Marseille Wired Basque made from?

The primary material is not explicitly stated in the provided description, but it is described as featuring exquisite embroidery, suggesting a blend of delicate fabrics suitable for lingerie. One sibling variant lists 'Polyester'.

Is this suitable for everyday wear?

While designed with comfort in mind, its delicate nature and features like suspender straps suggest it is best suited for special occasions or intimate wear rather than daily, heavy use.

How should I care for the embroidery?

Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh rubbing or wringing of the embroidered areas. Air dry flat.

What is the return policy for lingerie?

Return policies for lingerie can vary. It is recommended to check the specific retailer's policy, as hygiene and item condition are often considerations.

Troubleshooting

Straps are digging in or too loose

Adjust the shoulder and suspender straps to a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the band is sitting correctly on your ribcage.

Embroidery appears to be snagged or damaged

Handle with extreme care. Gently try to smooth out any snags. For significant damage, consult a professional lingerie repair service or consider it a sign of wear.

Basque does not feel supportive

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly around the bust and the band is snug. Re-adjust the shoulder straps for proper lift.

Garment feels uncomfortable after prolonged wear

Check that all straps are adjusted correctly and that the band is not too tight. Ensure the correct size has been selected.
