FAQs
What makes the Aerocool fabric beneficial?
Aerocool fabric is designed to be ultra-light and breathable, helping to wick away moisture and keep you feeling cool and dry throughout the day, even in warmer conditions.
How does the hook fastening system work?
The bra features a hook-and-eye closure. Sizes 40-44DD, 38-40E, 36-38F, 36FF, 34G, and 32GG have a 2-hook fastening. All other sizes have a 3-hook fastening for a more secure fit.
Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the smooth moulded cups and comfortable design make it ideal for everyday wear, especially under t-shirts and fitted clothing where a seamless look is desired.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The band should fit snugly and comfortably around your ribcage, sitting parallel to the floor. The cups should fully enclose your breasts without spillage or gapping. The straps should stay put without digging in. Trying the bra on and checking these fit points is the best way to determine the correct size.
Can this bra be worn under very thin or sheer tops?
The non-stretch moulded cups provide excellent coverage and prevent nipple show-through, making it suitable for wearing under most clothing, including thinner fabrics.
What is the main difference between this and a padded bra?
This bra features a non-stretch moulded cup, which shapes and supports without adding significant padding or volume. A padded bra typically contains added foam or padding for both shaping and slight size enhancement.
Are the straps adjustable?
Yes, the bra has adjustable straps. They are set narrowly at the back to help minimize slippage and provide a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Straps are digging in or slipping.
Ensure the bra is the correct size; the band should carry most of the support. Adjust the strap length. If straps continue to slip, ensure the back band is sitting parallel to the floor and consider if the cup size is correct.
Bra is uncomfortable around the underarm or band.
Verify the band size is correct. The fold-over elastic is designed for comfort, but ensure it's lying flat against the skin. Some adjustment might be needed for the bra to settle.
Moulded cups feel too rigid or don't conform well.
Ensure the cups are fully enclosing the breast tissue. If there's gapping or bulging, the cup size may not be correct. Moulded cups offer a specific shape and may take a short wear period to adapt to your form.
Fabric feels warm or not breathable enough.
While designed with aerocool fabric, personal body temperature and environmental factors play a role. Ensure no lotions or heavy perfumes are preventing airflow. Check that the bra is not too tight, which can restrict the fabric's breathability.
