No, the Strawberry Crush Balcony Bra is non-padded, relying on vertical cup darts and underwires for shaping.
We recommend measuring your ribcage for the band size and the fullest part of your bust for the cup size, keeping in mind this is a UK-sized brand.
Because the bra is black, it will be visible under thin or light-colored fabrics.
Yes, the balcony design and vertical darts are specifically engineered to provide structured lift for fuller busts.
It uses a 2-hook, 3-column fastening for most sizes, with 3 hooks utilized for larger size variants.
The bra is crafted from soft polyester mesh designed to be gentle on the skin, though individual sensitivities to embroidery can vary.
Ensure you are wearing the correct band size; if the band is too loose, the wires may shift and cause discomfort.
Adjust the strap sliders to ensure a snug fit, ensuring they are not too tight to pull the back of the bra upwards.
Try using an extender for the first few wears to allow the material to relax, or confirm that your band size is appropriate for your ribcage measurement.
For the best fit, ensure the underwire sits flat against your ribcage. To maintain the structural integrity of the delicate floral embroidery and the elasticity of the mesh, it is highly recommended to hand wash this item in cool water. If machine washing is necessary, use a lingerie mesh bag and a delicate cycle to prevent the underwires from bending or the embroidery from snagging. Always hang to air dry, avoiding direct heat or tumble drying, as this can degrade the polyester fibers and elastic components over time. The bra fastens with a standard 2-hook, 3-column closure for most sizes, providing a secure fit that stays in place.
