Full details
The Elomi Matilda Plunge Wired Bra in Hollyhock is designed for adult women seeking ultimate support and a flattering silhouette. Its key benefit is providing excellent uplift and separation for a confident fit, especially for larger busts. A potential consideration is the specific hook fastening count which varies by size. This underwired bra features a low centre front for plunge necklines without added push-up, enhanced with decorative embroidery on the top cup. The construction includes a three-section cup with a side panel for shaping, and a flexible back that can be converted to a racer back using a J-hook.

Troubleshooting
Band rides up
Ensure the band is snug and level around your ribcage. The band should sit parallel to the floor. If it's riding up, the band might be too large or the straps need adjustment.
Straps digging in
Adjust the straps so they are not too tight. If discomfort persists, the band might be providing too much support, or the cup size may need adjustment.
Underwire discomfort
Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the cradle of the bra, beneath the breast tissue. If it's digging or pinching, the cup size or band size might be incorrect.
Gapping in the cup
Check that you are leaning forward during fitting to allow breast tissue to settle fully into the cups. Ensure the band and cup size are correct for your shape.
