Berlei Beauty Stripe Underwired Minimiser Bra - Blue - Striped

A minimiser bra is designed to reduce the apparent size of the bust by redistributing the breast tissue, making the bust appear up to one cup size smaller. This creates a smoother, more streamlined silhouette under clothing.

Fill a basin with cool or lukewarm water, add a small amount of mild detergent, and gently agitate the water. Submerge the bra and gently squeeze the suds through the fabric. Avoid harsh scrubbing or twisting. Rinse thoroughly with clean, cool water and gently squeeze out excess water.

Tumble dryers can expose the bra to excessive heat, which can damage the delicate fabrics (like elastane and polyamide), compromise the underwire structure, and degrade the elasticity of the straps and bands, leading to premature wear and loss of shape and support.

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

Yes, the design focuses on comfort with supersoft lining and wide padded straps, making it suitable for everyday wear, especially for those seeking support and minimisation.

This specific model is available in sizes up to a 44G, catering to fuller busts and larger back sizes.

The double-layered back wing provides extra support and helps to smooth the back area, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit without digging in.

Adjust the shoulder straps to a comfortable length. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your bust. If discomfort persists, consider if the cup size or band size is appropriate.

Check that the band is fastened on the tightest hook for a secure fit. Ensure the cup size is correct and that the underwire is sitting flat against the rib cage. The back wing should sit level and not ride up.

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the bra pocket and lying flat against your body. If the underwire is poking or feels uncomfortable, the bra may be the wrong size or shape for your body.

Ensure the cups are fully encompassing the breast tissue and that the centre gore is lying flat against the chest. Adjust straps to ensure the cups are sitting correctly.
