FAQs

What makes this a minimizer bra?

This bra features a minimizer design that helps to distribute breast tissue more evenly, reducing the outward projection and making the bust appear up to one cup size smaller for a smoother silhouette.

What is the benefit of the striped mesh detail?

The bold striped mesh detail adds a fashionable and modern aesthetic to the bra, offering a stylish alternative to plainer designs while still providing support.

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, it is designed for fuller busts and larger back sizes, providing comfort and support suitable for daily activities.

What sizes are available?

This bra is available in a wide range of sizes, including larger back sizes up to a 44G.

How do I care for the mesh fabric?

The mesh fabric should be hand washed in cold water with a mild detergent and laid flat to dry. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying to maintain its integrity.

Will this bra flatten my chest completely?

No, a minimizer bra reduces the appearance of bust size and projection, but it does not completely flatten the chest. It aims to create a smoother, more streamlined shape.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the straps to a comfortable length. Ensure the bra band is at the correct position (level on the back) and not too tight, as this can cause straps to dig.

Band riding up

The band may be too loose or the bra might be the wrong size. Try a smaller band size or ensure the bra is fastened on the tightest hook initially, allowing for stretching over time.

Underwires poking

This often indicates an incorrect cup size or a damaged underwire casing. Ensure the cup is fully enclosing the breast and consider if a different style might be more suitable if the issue persists.

Mesh feels uncomfortable

Ensure the bra is the correct size. The mesh is designed to be decorative and supportive; if it feels rough, check for loose threads or consider that the fabric may need a gentle stretch during wear.
