Product Information
Full details
The Sculptresse Estel Underwired Full Cup Bra is designed for adults seeking reliable support and refined aesthetics in a fuller bust fit. Its primary benefit is the combination of structured support through a 4-piece cup design and a forgiving, comfortable fit provided by the ornate lace top panels. While it offers excellent shaping and smoothing features, users should note that the specific structural elements like the side sling and double-layered wings require careful handling to maintain their elasticity and shape over time.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is the lace top cup itchy?
The lace is designed to be soft and flexible; however, if you have highly sensitive skin, ensure you are wearing the correct size to prevent excessive friction.
Can I machine wash this bra?
It is highly recommended to hand wash only to protect the lace, hardware, and structural integrity of the cups.
What is the benefit of the dropped centre front?
The dropped centre front provides a plunging effect that allows you to wear lower-cut necklines while maintaining the support of a full-cup bra.
Does this bra offer push-up support?
It provides 'uplift' through its 4-piece construction and side sling rather than padding, creating a natural, forward-facing silhouette.
How do I ensure I have the right fit?
Ensure the underwire encompasses all breast tissue at the side and the centre gore sits flat against your sternum.
Troubleshooting
Straps slipping off the shoulders
Adjust the straps to be slightly tighter and ensure the back band is sitting flat and horizontal across your ribcage.
Underwire feels uncomfortable or pokes
Check that you are in the correct band size; a band that is too loose will cause the wires to migrate, while one too tight can cause digging.
Lace top feels loose or gaps
Ensure the breasts are fully scooped into the cups; if gapping persists, you may need a cup size smaller.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Sculptresse Estel, proper care is essential. Always hand wash the garment in cool water using a mild, non-biological detergent to protect the delicate lace and the elasticity of the synthetic materials. Avoid wringing or twisting the cups, as this can distort the underwire and the structure of the side sling. Hang the bra to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the elastic fibres over time. Regarding compatibility, the bra fits true to standard UK sizing for fuller busts, but the adjustable straps should be revisited after the first few wears to compensate for the initial 'breaking in' period of the fabric.
