Berlei Underwired Minimiser Bra - Floral

A minimiser bra is designed to reduce the appearance of the bust by spreading the breast tissue across the chest, creating a visually smaller silhouette. This bra specifically aims to reduce the appearance by up to one size.

No, this bra should only be hand washed. Machine washing or agitation can damage the delicate materials and construction.

Tumble drying can damage the underwire, straps, and rings due to the heat, potentially causing them to break or lose their shape and support.

The cups are lightweight and non-padded, but they are smooth and moulded to provide a seamless finish and lift. The minimiser function is achieved through the design and underwire structure.

The bra is made of 62% Polyamide, 20% Elastane, and 18% Polyester, exclusive of trims. It also features a super soft brushed cotton liner.

Yes, it is designed for everyday wear, offering comfort with its padded straps and smooth finish, while providing the minimiser effect.

The wide padded straps distribute weight more evenly across the shoulders, reducing pressure points and enhancing overall comfort, especially for those with a larger bust.

Ensure the bra is the correct size. Adjust the straps to a comfortable length. If the issue persists, the padding may not be sufficient for your needs, or the bra band may be too loose.

Verify the bra size and cup fit. Ensure the underwire channels are sitting correctly against the body. If discomfort continues, the underwire may be faulty, or this bra style might not suit your body shape.

Confirm the correct size has been selected. The minimiser effect is most pronounced when the bra fits perfectly. Ensure cups are fully encompassing the breast tissue.

This could be due to the jacquard mesh detail. Ensure the garment has been washed according to instructions with a mild detergent. For first-time wear, the lining may soften further after a few wears.
