FAQs

What makes the side support feature beneficial?

The side support panel is designed to help push the breast tissue towards the center, creating a more forward projection and a streamlined, uplifted shape under clothing.

Can I wear this bra for a full day?

Yes, the bra is designed for everyday wear with features like a lined top cup and soft, adjustable straps intended for comfort and support throughout the day.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A well-fitting bra should have the band sitting level on your back, the cups fully containing your breasts without spillage or wrinkling, and the straps comfortably supporting without digging in. The underwire should encircle the breast tissue without pressing on it.

What does 'hand wash only' mean in practice?

It means you should wash the bra in cool or lukewarm water with a small amount of mild detergent, gently swishing it around. Avoid wringing or stretching the fabric. Rinse thoroughly and then gently squeeze out excess water before laying flat to dry.

Why should I avoid tumble drying?

Tumble dryers use high heat which can melt or damage the elastic in the straps and bands, warp the underwire, and degrade the fabric over time, significantly reducing the bra's lifespan and support.

Is the floral print durable?

The print is designed to be durable with proper care. Hand washing and avoiding high heat will help maintain the vibrancy and integrity of the floral pattern.

What materials are used in this bra?

The bra is made from a blend of Polyester, Elastane, and Polyamide. Specifically, the top cup lining is 100% Polyester, the cup is 100% Polyester, the wing is 68% Polyester and 32% Elastane, and the lace is 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane.

Troubleshooting

Bra does not feel supportive

Ensure the band is fastened on the loosest hook initially and that the straps are adjusted correctly. The band should be snug and sit parallel to the ground. If support is still lacking, the cup size or band size may need adjustment.

Straps digging into shoulders

Loosen the shoulder strap adjusters. The bra band should be carrying most of the support; if the straps are doing too much work, the band may be too loose.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the bra's under-bust channel and is not digging into the breast tissue. Check that the bra size is correct, as an incorrect fit can cause the underwire to sit improperly.

Lace or fabric pilling/damage after washing

Confirm that the bra is being hand-washed gently with a mild detergent and is not being subjected to harsh scrubbing or machine washing/drying. Ensure it is dried flat and not exposed to high heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a bra, there is no complex setup required beyond selecting the correct size and adjusting the shoulder straps for a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the band is level and the cups fully encapsulate the breast tissue.

Compatibility: This bra is designed for adult women and is available in a range of band and cup sizes (e.g., 34DD, 30J, 38D, 30FF, 32DD, 30G, 30H, 30HH). Its supportive structure makes it compatible with various clothing types, from casual wear to more formal attire, especially where a smooth, uplifted silhouette is desired.

Care:

  • Hand wash only. Use a mild detergent in cool or lukewarm water.
  • Do not bleach.
  • Do not tumble dry. Exposure to heat can damage the straps, rings, and other components.
  • Reshape while damp and dry flat away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Avoid harsh scrubbing, especially on the lace and printed sections, to preserve the fabric and design.
