FAQs
What material is this bra made from?
This bra is made from a blend of cotton and modal, offering a soft and breathable feel.
How do I determine my correct bra size?
Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your rib cage directly under your bust. Measure your cup size by wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor. Consult a sizing chart for conversion.
Can I machine wash this bra?
It is recommended to hand wash this bra in cold water with a mild detergent to preserve its shape and fabric integrity. Avoid machine washing and drying.
What is a balconette bra style?
A balconette bra features cups that are cut horizontally, offering a more open neckline and a flattering uplifted shape without excessive cleavage.
Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the blend of comfort, support from the underwire, and soft fabric makes it suitable for everyday wear.
What does 'longline' mean in bra terminology?
'Longline' refers to a bra style where the band extends further down the torso, offering more coverage and a sleek silhouette under clothing.
Does the bra come in other colors?
This specific model is described as being in the Black colour family. Please check other product listings for available color variations.
Troubleshooting
Bra straps are digging in or slipping.
Adjust the bra straps to a comfortable, secure length. If straps continue to slip, ensure the band is not too loose and the bra size is correct.
Underwire is uncomfortable or poking.
Ensure the bra is the correct size and fit. The underwire should comfortably encase the breast tissue. If discomfort persists, the bra may not be the right style or size for your body.
Band feels too tight or too loose.
If the band is too tight, try fastening the bra on the loosest hook. If it's too loose even on the tightest hook, consider going down a band size. If the band rides up, it's likely too loose.
Cups are not fitting correctly (gaping or overflowing).
This indicates a potential sizing issue. If there's gaping, try a smaller cup size. If there's overflowing or spillage, try a larger cup size. Ensure the center gore lies flat against the sternum.
