FAQs
What makes this a 'side support' bra?
The Embrace Side Support Bra features specially designed laminated panels on the sides of the cups. These panels help to lift the breasts, provide forward projection, and prevent the breast tissue from spreading outwards, offering enhanced support and a smoother shape.
Is this bra suitable for very large busts?
Yes, this bra is specifically designed for fuller busts and larger back sizes, offering the support needed for these figures.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the Berlei Embrace Side Support Bra must be hand washed in cold water. Machine washing can damage the delicate fabrics and support structure.
What happens if I tumble dry the bra?
Tumble drying is not recommended as the heat can damage the bra's components, particularly the straps and rings, potentially causing them to break.
What is the material composition of this bra?
The bra is made from 70% Polyamide, 17% Polyester, and 13% Elastane, exclusive of trims.
Are there matching underwear available?
Yes, the Berlei Embrace Side Support Bra can be paired with the Embrace Midi Brief.
Does this bra have padding?
No, this is a non-padded bra, offering a natural shape and feel.
Troubleshooting
Bra does not feel supportive enough.
Ensure you have selected the correct band and cup size. The band should sit snugly on your ribcage, and the cups should fully enclose your breasts without gapping or digging in.
Straps digging into shoulders.
Adjust the strap length. If the issue persists, the band size may be too large, causing the straps to bear too much weight. Consider a professional fitting.
Embroidery appears to be snagged or damaged.
Handle the bra gently during washing and drying. Avoid contact with sharp objects or abrasive surfaces. If snagged, do not pull; carefully trim any loose threads with small scissors.
Bra feels uncomfortable after a few hours.
Check for any internal seams or underwires that might be pressing uncomfortably. Ensure the bra is the correct fit for your body shape. Sometimes, a break-in period is needed for new bras.
