FAQs
What makes the HeiQ Smart Temp Finish beneficial?
The HeiQ Smart Temp Finish is a thermoregulation technology that adapts to your body temperature. It helps to keep your skin feeling cool and comfortable by managing moisture and promoting airflow, especially during warmer conditions.
Is this bra suitable for daily wear?
Yes, this bra is designed for daily wear, offering a combination of comfort, support, and a smooth, seamless appearance under clothing due to its padded cups and invisible edging.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification mean?
This certification means the textile product has been tested for and is free from harmful substances, ensuring it is safe for human health.
How can I ensure the best fit for a balconette bra?
A balconette bra should provide coverage while offering a natural lift. Ensure the cups fully contain the breast tissue without spilling over, and the band fits snugly and sits parallel to the floor.
What is the benefit of using recycled polyamide?
Using recycled polyamide conserves resources and reduces waste, contributing to a more sustainable production process while maintaining fabric quality.
Can I wear this bra under very thin or clingy fabrics?
Yes, the invisible cup edging and smooth microfibre design make it suitable for wearing under thin or clingy fabrics, as it minimizes visible lines.
How do I know if my bra needs replacing?
Signs include the band stretching out and riding up, straps constantly slipping, underwires poking through, or the fabric losing its elasticity and support. If the bra no longer fits comfortably or provides adequate support, it's time for a replacement.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels too tight or too loose around the band
Adjust the hook-and-eye clasps for a tighter or looser fit. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider trying a different band size.
Straps digging into shoulders
Ensure the band is providing the primary support (it should sit parallel to the floor). Adjust the strap length and check that the cups are the correct size – straps should not bear the main weight.
Underwire poking out or uncomfortable
This may indicate the bra is old or damaged. Check for any tears in the fabric around the underwire casing. If the underwire is bent, it may need replacement; consider a new bra if significant damage is present.
Visible bra lines under clothing
Ensure the cups are fitting correctly and the invisible edging is lying flat against the skin. Smooth down the fabric of the bra to ensure it is sitting flush with your body.
Bra loses its shape or elasticity quickly
Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions meticulously. Avoid machine drying, as heat can degrade elasticity. Hand washing or using a gentle cycle with a wash bag is best.

*Recommendation*: Using a lingerie wash bag is advised to protect the delicate lace and ensure the longevity of the underwires and padding.

Given the inclusion of recycled polyamide and special finishes, following care instructions is crucial for maintaining the bra's performance and shape.
