FAQs
Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, it can be worn for everyday occasions. However, due to the delicate nature of the embroidery and hardware, careful handling and washing are recommended to maintain its appearance and longevity.
What is the main benefit of a non-padded bra?
Non-padded bras offer a natural shape and feel, allowing your bust to sit as it naturally would, supported by the underwire and fabric without added volume.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your rib cage directly under your bust. Measure your cup size by wrapping the tape around the fullest part of your bust. Consult a sizing chart or seek professional fitting advice for the most accurate results.
Can the gold-toned chains be removed for washing?
The gold-toned chain hardware is typically integrated into the bra's design and is not intended to be removed for washing. Follow the hand-wash instructions carefully to protect these embellishments.
What type of outfit is best suited for this bra?
This balcony bra works well under lower necklines, scoop necks, or V-necks. It can also be a beautiful choice under slightly sheer tops where a decorative element can be appreciated.
What material is the bra made from?
The bra is primarily made from Polyamide (80%) and Elastane (20%), with floral embroidery detailing.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels uncomfortable or digs in
Ensure the bra is the correct size. Adjust the shoulder straps and the hook-and-eye fastening for a snug but comfortable fit. Check that the underwire is sitting correctly against your rib cage.
Embroidery appears to be snagging or fraying
Handle the bra with care, especially when dressing and undressing. Avoid contact with rough surfaces or jewelry that could catch on the threads. If a small snag occurs, do not pull it; try to gently tease it back into place with a fine needle if possible.
Straps are slipping
Adjust the shoulder straps to be tighter. If slipping persists, the bra may be too large, or the elastic in the straps may be worn out. Ensure you are using the correct hook-and-eye setting for your current band size.
Gold-toned hardware tarnishes
Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, lotions, or perfumes. Gently wipe the hardware with a soft, dry cloth. For persistent tarnish, a specialized jewelry cleaner for gold-plated items might be used with extreme caution on a small, inconspicuous area first.
