Berlei Beauty Everyday Underwired Minimiser Bra - Purple

A minimiser bra is designed to reduce the projection of the bust, making it appear smaller and creating a smoother silhouette under clothing. It achieves this by distributing the breast tissue more evenly across the cup.

Yes, the Berlei Beauty Everyday Underwired Minimiser Bra is designed for practical, comfortable, and supportive everyday wear, especially for those needing support for fuller busts.

Fill a basin with cool water and add a small amount of mild detergent. Submerge the bra and gently swish it around. Avoid aggressive scrubbing. Rinse thoroughly with cool water and gently squeeze out excess water without wringing.

The heat from a tumble dryer can damage the elastic fibers in the fabric, weaken the underwire casing, and potentially melt or discolour synthetic components like straps and rings, leading to reduced support and a shorter lifespan for the bra.

Underwired bras have a thin, semi-circular metal or plastic wire sewn into the base of each cup. This wire provides structure, lift, and support to the bust.

While designed for fuller busts, the minimiser effect and support features might still be beneficial for some individuals regardless of bust size. However, if you have a smaller bust, you may find other bra styles offer more comfort and appropriate support.

The bra is made from 60% Polyamide, 22% Polyester, and 18% Elastane, excluding trims. This blend offers durability, stretch, and support.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Re-check band and cup fit. Adjust the shoulder straps for a more even distribution of support.

This can sometimes occur with new lace. Ensure the bra has been washed according to the care instructions, which may soften the lace. If the issue persists, it may be a personal sensitivity to the lace material.

This can happen with frequent machine washing or drying. Ensure you are strictly following the hand-wash only and do not tumble dry instructions. Consider replacing the bra if it is old and has lost its original form.

The bra might be too tight in the band, causing the straps to bear too much weight. Loosen the straps slightly and ensure the band is sitting comfortably on your ribcage.
