Product Information

Full details

The Gossard Glossies High Apex Bra is designed for women seeking a comfortable, supportive, and virtually invisible undergarment. It offers a natural lift and smooth silhouette, making it ideal for everyday wear. A potential caveat is that while lightweight, it may not provide the same level of containment as more structured bras for very full busts, though it supports up to a G cup. Key features include its sheer plunge neckline, light padding for opacity, and a lightweight yet supportive construction.

FAQs

What makes the 'High Apex' design different?

The 'High Apex' refers to the shape of the cups where the center gore extends higher, creating a more uplifted and elongated silhouette.

Is the sheer neckline fully transparent?

The neckline is sheer, offering a delicate look. The light padding provides a degree of opacity for a smooth appearance under clothing, but it is not opaque.

What is Oeko-Tex Standard 100?

It is an independent certification system for textile products, ensuring that the product is free from harmful substances.

Can this bra be worn for sports?

While it offers support, it is primarily designed for everyday wear and lighter activities. For high-impact sports, a dedicated sports bra is recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The band should fit snugly but comfortably around your ribcage, allowing you to fit two fingers underneath. The cups should fully enclose the breast without spilling over or gaping. The straps should stay in place without digging in.

Does the light padding add significant bulk?

No, the padding is light and designed primarily to provide opacity and a smooth shape, rather than to add significant volume.

What colors are available for the Glossies High Apex Bra?

This specific model is available in Beige and Black. Other styles within the Glossies range may offer more color options.

Troubleshooting

Straps dig into shoulders

Adjust the bra straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as a loose band can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Underwire poking out

This can happen with wear. Check the casing around the underwire. If significantly damaged, the bra may need replacement. Hand washing gently can help prolong the life of the underwire casing.

Bra feels unsupportive

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The band provides the majority of support; if it's too loose, the bra will feel unsupportive. Check that all hooks on the closure are fastened.

Visible lines under clothing

Ensure the bra is the correct size and the fit is smooth against the body. The light padding is designed to minimize this, but proper fit is key.
