FAQs

How do I know if I have the right size?

The band should sit snugly and horizontally around your body. The center gore should lie flat against your sternum, and the underwire should encircle the breast tissue completely, lying flat against the ribcage. There should be no spillage or gaping in the cups.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra is strictly hand wash only. Machine washing, even on a delicate cycle, can damage the underwires, lace, and overall structure of the bra.

What does 'no-show lace' mean?

It means the lace used in the construction of the bra is designed to be as flat and smooth as possible, often placed between layers of fabric, so it does not create visible lines or patterns under your clothing.

What is the purpose of the 'tall chimney back'?

The tall chimney back is a design feature that extends higher up the back. It helps to smooth the back and sides, providing a more streamlined silhouette under clothing and preventing the bra band from rolling.

What material is the bra made of?

The primary materials include Polyester for the cups and satin simplex, Polyamide and Elastane for the wings, and Polyamide for the top cup lining. Specific components like the top cup lace are 100% Polyester.

How does this bra compare to the Elomi Cate?

The Cate Allure builds on the popular Elomi Cate style, offering a similar supportive fit but with the added feature of subtle, no-show lace for a more sophisticated and contemporary aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Underwire poking through fabric

This can happen with wear and tear. Inspect the area for small holes and consider a professional repair if possible. Avoid rough handling during washing.

Straps digging in

Ensure the bra is the correct size and that the straps are adjusted properly. If the digging persists, the band size may be too tight, or the cup size may need adjustment.

Bra not providing enough support

Check that the band is snug against the body (not too loose) and that the cups fully contain the breast tissue. The hook-and-eye fastening on the loosest setting should be comfortable.

Lace showing under thin tops

While designed as 'no-show', very sheer or thin fabrics might reveal the lace texture. Consider wearing a smooth-molded cup bra if a completely seamless look is essential for specific garments.
