FAQs

What is the main difference between this bra and a padded bra?

This Essential Elegance Lace Bra is non-padded, meaning it offers natural shaping without added foam or padding. A padded bra includes extra material to enhance fullness or provide a smoother appearance.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which typically involves measuring your band size (underbust) and cup size (difference between bust and underbust measurements). Ensure the band fits snugly and the cups fully contain the breast.

Can I wear this bra for sports?

This bra is designed for everyday wear and provides moderate support. For high-impact sports, a specialized sports bra is recommended to offer adequate support and reduce movement.

What does 'full cup' mean in bra terminology?

A full cup bra is designed to cover the entire breast, providing maximum support and containment. It typically has a wider center gore and straps set further apart compared to demi or plunge styles.

How should I care for the lace details?

The lace is part of the overall fabric blend. Gentle hand washing with a mild detergent and air drying will help preserve the integrity and appearance of the lace.

What is the material composition of this bra?

This bra is made from a blend of 85% polyamide and 15% elastane, offering a good balance of stretch, comfort, and durability.

Troubleshooting

Bra straps digging in

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly and not too tight. Check if the band size is appropriate; a band that is too loose can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Underwire discomfort

Verify the bra fit, especially the underwire placement around the cups. If discomfort persists, consider trying a non-wired style or a different bra model.

Bra losing shape

Follow the recommended care instructions carefully, avoiding high heat in washing and drying. Ensure the bra is stored properly, not folded or crushed.

Fabric pilling or wear

Avoid washing with abrasive materials. Use a gentle detergent and follow the hand-wash or gentle machine-wash recommendations.
