FAQs
How should I measure my size for this bra?
Measure your ribcage directly under the bust for your band size and the fullest part of your bust for the cup size. Wacoal sizes are standard, but fit can vary by individual shape.
Can I put this bra in the dryer?
No. The heat from a tumble dryer will degrade the elasticity of the straps and weaken the lace fabric. Always air dry.
Is the lace itchy?
The Wacoal Abellia uses soft stretch lace specifically chosen for comfort. It is designed to be soft against the skin for all-day wear.
What is the purpose of the keyhole cut-out?
The keyhole cut-out is a decorative design element intended to add a sophisticated and modern aesthetic to the center gore of the bra.
Does this bra provide enough support for larger cup sizes?
Yes, the underwire construction is designed to provide robust support, though it is important to ensure you have selected the correct cup size for your specific needs.
Troubleshooting
Straps slipping off shoulders
Adjust the strap sliders to ensure a snug but comfortable fit. If they continue to slip, the band size may be too large, causing the straps to sit too far apart.
Underwire digging into the skin
This often indicates that the cup size is too small or the band is too loose. Ensure the underwire sits flat against the ribcage without resting on breast tissue.
Lace snagging during wash
Always use a protective laundry bag and ensure all hooks are fastened before placing the bra in the wash to prevent the hooks from catching on the lace.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Wacoal Abellia bra, proper care is essential. It is highly recommended to hand wash the bra in cold water using a gentle lingerie detergent. If machine washing is necessary, always use a dedicated mesh laundry bag and select a delicate cycle to prevent the lace from snagging or the underwire from bending. Always air dry the item flat or hung by the gore; avoid using a tumble dryer, as the heat will damage the elastic properties of the straps and lace. For compatibility, ensure you are measuring your band and cup size regularly, as fluctuations in weight or body composition can affect the effectiveness of the underwire fit.
