FAQs
What makes the Berlei Embrace Side Support Bra suitable for fuller busts?
The bra features specially constructed cups designed for maximum forward projection and uplift, combined with a supportive band and adjustable straps, all engineered to provide comfort and containment for larger cup and back sizes.
Can this bra be worn under tight-fitting clothing?
Yes, the soft sheen fabric and the design focus on smooth lines, aiming to provide a flattering silhouette under most clothing types, including tighter-fitting garments.
What is the best way to wash this bra?
It is essential to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals and never put it in a tumble dryer, as heat can damage the materials.
Does the embroidery affect the comfort?
The embroidery is designed to be super flat and opulent, contributing to the luxurious finish. While generally comfortable, individuals with very sensitive skin might want to assess the feel during wear.
What does 'side support' mean in the context of this bra?
Side support typically refers to additional fabric or structure within the cup that helps to gently pull the breast tissue towards the center, providing enhanced shape, uplift, and preventing outward splay.
How often should I replace my Berlei Embrace bra?
Bras generally need replacement every 6-12 months with regular wear, depending on care and usage. Signs it's time for a new one include stretched bands, worn straps, or loss of elasticity.
What is the material composition of this bra?
The bra is made from a blend of 70% Polyamide, 17% Elastane, and 13% Polyester, chosen for their supportive, flexible, and comfortable properties.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Ensure straps are adjusted correctly and not overtightened. The bra size may also need adjustment.
Band riding up
Check if the band size is correct. The band should sit comfortably and firmly around your ribcage. Consider trying a size with a smaller band measurement.
Cups not providing enough support
Verify that the cup size is accurate. The entire breast should be enclosed within the cup without spilling over. Adjusting the straps can also improve support.
Embroidery feels rough
This is characteristic of the luxurious embroidery. Washing the bra as per instructions may soften the fabric over time. Ensure the garment is correctly placed to minimize irritation.
