FAQs
What makes this bra 'smoothing'?

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

What is the material composition?
The bra is made from a blend of 62% polyamide, 20% elastane, and 18% polyester.
Can I wear this bra with a t-shirt?
Yes, the seamless cups and smoothing effect make it ideal for wearing under t-shirts and other fitted clothing.
What is the maximum cup size available?
This model is designed for fuller busts and is available in sizes up to a 44G.
How do I determine my correct size?
It is recommended to refer to Berlei's official sizing guide and consider getting professionally measured for the most accurate fit.
Does the striped mesh add any support?
The primary support comes from the underwired cups and the band. The striped mesh is primarily a decorative and aesthetic element.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging into shoulders
Adjust the strap length to ensure they are not too tight. Check that the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your bust.
Band riding up
Ensure you have selected the correct band size. The band should be snug and level around your torso. You may need to tighten the hook-and-eye closure if the band has stretched.
Discomfort from underwire
Check that the underwire channels are positioned correctly under the breast tissue. Ensure the bra size is correct, as an incorrect size can cause the underwire to sit improperly.
Mesh detail feels rough
Ensure the bra is washed according to care instructions, as improper washing can affect fabric texture. If the issue persists after proper care, it may be a manufacturing anomaly.
