FAQs
Can I machine wash the Wonderbra Ultimate Plunge Bra?
No, this bra requires hand washing only. Machine washing, especially with high heat or harsh cycles, can damage the delicate fabrics, elasticity, and integral components like the U-shaped underwiring and strap rings. Always follow the 'hand wash only' instruction for longevity.
What kind of outfits is this bra best suited for?
This bra is specifically designed for garments with very deep V-necklines, plunging fronts, or low-cut designs. Its unique construction ensures maximum cleavage and support without the bra showing, making it perfect for special occasion dresses or tops.
Are the straps completely removable for a strapless look?
The straps are detachable and adjustable, but they are designed to be crossed over at the back, not removed entirely for strapless wear. The bra's support and plunge effect rely on the combination of the U-wire and shoulder straps.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified mean?
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification means that every component of the product, from the fabric to the thread and accessories, has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore harmless to human health. It assures you of a safe and skin-friendly product.
How do I find the perfect fit for this plunge bra?
Achieving the perfect fit involves two main adjustments: the back elastic and the shoulder straps. The back band should be snug and level across your back. Adjust the shoulder straps to lift your bust to the desired position, ensuring they are firm but not digging into your shoulders. Experiment with these adjustments until you feel comfortable and achieve the desired cleavage.
Can I use fabric softener when washing this bra?
It is generally recommended to avoid fabric softener when washing bras, especially those with elastic components. Fabric softener can break down the elastic fibers over time, reducing the bra's stretch and support. Stick to a mild detergent specifically designed for delicates.
Troubleshooting
Cleavage effect is not as dramatic as expected.
Ensure the bra band is snug around your torso; it should be firm but comfortable. Adjust the shoulder straps to provide adequate lift. Sometimes a slight adjustment in the strap length can significantly impact the plunge effect. Make sure the 'U' wire is properly positioned against your sternum.
Bra feels uncomfortable or digs in.
Check if the back elastic is too tight. It should be snug but not restrictive. Also, re-adjust the shoulder straps; if they are too tight, they can cause discomfort and strain. Ensure the U-wire sits flat against your body and is not digging into your skin.
Straps slip off or feel loose.
Tighten the adjustable shoulder straps slightly. If the issue persists, consider crossing the straps over at the back to provide a more secure fit, especially if you have narrow shoulders. Also, ensure the back elastic is not too loose.
Bra loses its shape after washing.
Review the care instructions. This bra is strictly hand wash only and must not be tumble dried. Tumble drying causes irreparable damage to the fabric, elasticity, and components. Always air dry flat or hang gently without wringing.

Setup and Compatibility This bra is designed for immediate use. Simply adjust the shoulder straps and the back elastic to achieve your desired fit and level of support. The detachable straps can be unhooked and crossed over at the back to accommodate various plunging back designs or to provide a different feel. This bra is specifically compatible with deep V-necklines and other garments that feature a very low cut front, providing the necessary support and shape without showing above your clothing line. ## Care Instructions To ensure the longevity and performance of your Wonderbra Ultimate Plunge Bra, proper care is essential: - Hand Wash Only: Gently hand wash the bra using mild detergent and lukewarm water. Avoid harsh scrubbing or twisting. - Do Not Tumble Dry: Crucially, do not tumble dry this bra. High heat can damage the straps, rings, and elasticity, leading to breakage and loss of shape. - Air Dry: After washing, gently squeeze out excess water (do not wring) and lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. This helps maintain the bra's shape and integrity of the materials. - Storage: Store the bra in a way that prevents the cups from being crushed, ideally laid flat or hung.
