FAQs

Is this bra padded?

No, the Flirtelle Swirl Balcony Bra is a non-padded bra, designed to provide natural shape and support without added foam or padding.

What is the main benefit of the 3-part cup design?

The 3-part cup construction, along with the inner mesh layer, is designed to offer excellent shaping, uplift, and support, especially for larger cup sizes.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to a reliable bra size guide and measure your band and cup size accurately. It is recommended to get professionally fitted if possible, as fit can vary between brands.

Can I wear this bra under tight-fitting clothes?

Yes, the smooth microfibre outer layer is designed to provide a sleek finish under clothing, minimizing visible lines.

What materials is the bra made from?

The main fabric is a blend of Polyester and Elastane. It also features Polyamide and Polyester for embroidery, lining, and wing mesh.

How many hooks does the fastening have?

Sizes 32-36 with F cups have a 2-hook fastening. All other sizes have a 3-hook fastening for a more secure fit.

What is the best way to care for this bra?

Hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent is recommended. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying to maintain the bra's shape and integrity.

Troubleshooting

Bra straps digging in

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly. Loosen them slightly if they are too tight. The wide straps are designed for comfort, so proper adjustment is key.

Underwire discomfort

Check that the underwire is sitting flat against the ribcage and not digging into the breast tissue. Ensure the correct bra size is being worn. The underwire should follow the natural curve of the breast.

Bra riding up at the back

The band should sit parallel to the ground. Adjust the hook-and-eye fastening to a tighter setting if necessary, or consider if a smaller band size is needed.

Poor shape or containment

Ensure the bra is the correct cup size and that all breast tissue is pulled forward into the cups during fitting. Adjust the side seams and straps to ensure a snug fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides reliable uplift and support, particularly for larger cup sizes up to K.
  • The non-padded design offers a natural and comfortable feel.
  • Elegant embroidery adds a stylish and sophisticated aesthetic.
  • Smooth microfibre outer material ensures a sleek look under clothing.
  • Wide, adjustable straps contribute to overall comfort and secure fit.

Cons

  • Non-padded nature may not be preferred by those seeking extra padding.
  • Strap adjustment is crucial for optimal support and comfort, requiring some user attention.
  • The balcony style offers a specific silhouette which might not suit all preferences.
  • While supportive, it is designed for everyday wear and may not offer the same level of compression as sports bras.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Flirtelle Swirl Balcony Bra requires no assembly. Simply put it on and adjust the straps and hook-and-eye fastening for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the underwire sits smoothly against the ribcage and the cups fully enclose the breast tissue.

Compatibility:

This bra is designed for all-day wear with most types of clothing. Its smooth finish makes it compatible with fitted tops and t-shirts. It is not designed for high-impact sports.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Hand wash recommended using a mild detergent in cool or lukewarm water. Avoid machine washing to preserve the delicate embroidery and fabric structure.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently squeeze out excess water and hang to dry on a line or lay flat.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. The materials used do not require ironing and heat can damage the fabric.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach. Use of bleach can damage the fabric and affect the colour.
