FAQs

What makes this bra suitable for fuller busts?

The bra features specially constructed cups designed to maximize forward projection and uplift, along with side support panels that provide extra containment and shaping for larger cup and back sizes.

Is this bra padded?

No, this is a non-padded bra, offering a natural shape and feel.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, the care instructions specify hand wash only. Machine washing and tumble drying can damage the fabric, underwires, and straps.

What material is the bra made of?

The bra is made from a blend of 70% polyamide, 17% elastane, and 13% polyester, offering a balance of comfort, stretch, and support.

What is the benefit of the side support feature?

The side support feature helps to gently pull the breast tissue towards the center, enhancing forward projection and providing a smoother, more uplifted silhouette.

How do I ensure the best fit?

For the best fit, ensure the band sits snugly and horizontally on your back, the center gore lays flat against your chest, and the cups fully enclose your breasts without gaping or spilling over. Adjust the straps for personalized comfort and support.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging into shoulders

Adjust the straps to a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your ribcage.

Bra band riding up

The band may be too loose. Ensure you are wearing the correct band size. The bra should sit firmly and level on your back.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the bra is the correct size and the underwire is sitting correctly in the cup pocket. If discomfort persists, the underwire may not be suited to your shape.

Fabric losing shape after washing

Ensure you are strictly following the hand-wash-only and do-not-tumble-dry instructions. Improper care can degrade the fabric and elasticity.
