FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Gossard Glossies High Apex Bra?

The primary benefit is its ability to provide a smooth, invisible look under clothing due to its lightweight fabric and seamless design, while still offering support.

What does 'High Apex' mean in this bra's name?

'High Apex' refers to the bra cups extending higher towards the shoulder, creating a more elongated and often flattering shape to the bust.

Can this bra be worn under very sheer clothing?

The light padding offers some opacity, making it suitable for many sheer fabrics. However, the degree of visibility will depend on the sheerness of the clothing and the lighting conditions.

What is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified?

This certification means the textile has been tested and is free from harmful levels of more than 100 substances that could be dangerous to human health.

What is the best way to care for this bra?

It is best to hand wash in cool water with mild detergent and lay flat or hang to dry. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying.

Does this bra offer significant push-up or shaping?

This is a 'light padded' bra, designed primarily for comfort and a smooth appearance. It does not offer significant push-up or dramatic shaping.

What sizes is this bra available in?

The Gossard Glossies High Apex Light Padded Bra is available in various band and cup sizes, including options up to a G cup, across different colorways.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping

Ensure straps are adjusted to the correct length. If slipping persists, check that the bra is the correct size and consider if the fabric has lost elasticity over time.

Band riding up

The band may be too loose. Try adjusting to a tighter hook setting or ensure you are wearing the correct band size. The back U-shape is designed for support, so a secure fit is key.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the bra's channel and not digging into the breast tissue. Correct sizing is crucial for proper underwire placement.

Padding feels insufficient

This bra features 'light padding' for opacity rather than significant shaping. For more volume or shaping, consider a bra designed with fuller padding or a different style.
