FAQs

What makes this bra 'non-padded'?

The 'non-padded' aspect means the cups are unlined and do not have any extra foam or padding added. This allows for a more natural shape and feel, and enhances breathability.

What is the benefit of a plunge bra?

A plunge bra features a low center gore (the part between the cups) and cups that are cut lower. This makes it ideal for wearing with low-cut tops and dresses, as it provides lift and shape without being visible.

Can this bra be worn for sports?

While it offers good support for everyday activities, this plunge bra is not designed as a high-impact sports bra. For athletic activities, a dedicated sports bra is recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A well-fitting bra should have the band sitting snugly and level on your back, the cups should fully enclose your breast without spillage or gaping, and the straps should stay in place without digging in.

Is the plum purple color sheer?

The description indicates a 'rich plum purple' color. While the fabric is lightweight and breathable, the color itself is opaque and should not appear sheer.

What is the main advantage of the Lifestyle bra line?

The Lifestyle line is known for its combination of lightweight, breathable materials with supportive construction, making it a comfortable and functional choice for daily wear, especially for those needing support in larger cup sizes.

Troubleshooting

Underwire digging in

Ensure the bra is the correct size and fit. Adjust the band and straps. If discomfort persists, consider a different style.

Straps slipping off shoulders

Adjust the straps to be tighter. Ensure the band is sitting correctly on your ribcage. If the issue persists, the bra size or shape may not be suitable.

Bra not providing enough support

Check that the band is snug and the cups are full. Ensure you are wearing the correct band and cup size. The bra might be worn out and need replacement.

Fabric feels less breathable over time

Ensure you are following the recommended hand-wash care instructions. Residue from detergents or improper washing can affect breathability.
