FAQs
Is this bra padded?
No, the Freya Offbeat is a non-padded bra. It relies on its four-piece cup construction and side support panels to provide lift and shape.
Can I put this bra in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. The delicate floral lace and elastic components require hand washing in cold water to maintain their shape and longevity.
What is 'side support' in this bra?
The side support consists of a laminated side sling inside the cup that prevents breast tissue from migrating toward the armpits, resulting in a more forward-facing profile.
Are the straps fully adjustable?
Yes, the straps are fully adjustable, allowing you to tailor the tension to your preference and prevent slippage.
Does this bra work well for larger cup sizes?
Yes, the four-piece construction is specifically designed to provide robust support and shape for a wide range of cup sizes.
How do I maintain the shape of the cups?
Ensure you hand wash the bra and hang it to dry. Avoid folding the cups inside out or crushing them during storage.
Troubleshooting
Wires are digging into the sides
The cup size may be too small, causing the wire to sit on breast tissue; consider trying a larger cup size.
Straps are sliding off shoulders
Adjust the tow-back straps to be tighter and check that the band size is not too large, which can cause the back of the bra to ride up.
Lace is losing its elasticity
Avoid machine washing and heat drying; always use gentle, cold hand washing to protect the LYCRA fibers.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides excellent forward projection and lift
- High-stretch lace adapts well to natural shape variations
- Tow-back strap design minimizes strap slippage
- No padding allows for a lighter feel under clothing
- Sophisticated floral lace design
Cons
- Requires hand washing for long-term maintenance
- Floral lace may show texture under very thin, tight fabrics
- Limited to specific sizing structures inherent to the four-piece design
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a proper fit, always check your current underwire size, as the Freya Offbeat is designed with a specific supportive structure that functions best when the band is snug and the wires sit flat against the ribcage. When putting on the bra, perform the 'scoop and swoop' technique to ensure all breast tissue is positioned comfortably within the cups. Due to the high LYCRA content and delicate floral lace, it is strictly recommended to hand wash the garment in cool water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, and never machine dry, as high heat will damage the elastic properties of the fabric. Lay the bra flat or hang it to dry away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the material.
