FAQs

What is the main benefit of this minimiser bra?

The primary benefit is its ability to reduce the appearance of the bust, creating a smoother and more streamlined silhouette under clothing.

What makes this bra suitable for larger busts?

It is specifically designed with a structure and support system intended for fuller busts, offering comfort and shape. It is available in larger back and cup sizes, up to a 44G.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra must be hand washed only with a mild detergent in cool water. Machine washing can damage the fabric and construction.

Why should I avoid tumble drying?

Tumble drying can expose the straps and rings to excessive heat, which can cause them to degrade, break, or lose their elasticity, compromising the bra's fit and lifespan.

What material is the bra made from?

The bra is made from a blend of 62% Polyamide, 20% Elastane, and 18% Polyester, exclusive of trims.

What is the difference between this bra and the B521 model?

The Beauty Stripe B541 bra is a striking alternative based on the B521 model, featuring bold striped mesh detail.

Does this bra offer good support for everyday wear?

Yes, the underwired construction and design provide robust support suitable for daily wear, especially for those needing extra support.

Troubleshooting

Bra not providing adequate support

Ensure the band is on the loosest hook for a new bra and adjust to a tighter hook as it stretches. Check that the straps are adjusted correctly and not too loose.

Underwire discomfort

Confirm the bra size is correct, as an ill-fitting bra can cause wire digging. Ensure the bra is positioned correctly on the body.

Straps digging into shoulders

Adjust the shoulder straps to a comfortable tension. If the issue persists, consider if the band size might be too large, forcing the straps to carry more weight.

Fabric pilling or damage after washing

Ensure you are following the hand wash only and no tumble dry instructions precisely. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive wringing.
