Product Information
Full details
The Freya Offbeat Side Support Bra is designed for adults seeking a reliable, supportive everyday undergarment that combines aesthetic appeal with functional design. Its key benefit is the four-piece cup construction and laminated side sling, which provide excellent forward projection and uplift without the bulk of padding. A notable caveat is that this garment is strictly hand-wash only to preserve the structural integrity of the delicate lace and underwire components.

FAQs
Can I put this bra in the washing machine?
No, this product is hand wash only to protect the laminated side supports and the wire construction.
Does this bra include padding?
No, the Offbeat is a non-padded, underwired bra designed for a natural shape.
What is the purpose of the side support panel?
The side support panel is a laminated piece of fabric that helps guide breast tissue forward for a centered, uplifted profile.
Is the lace itchy?
The lace is made from a soft stretch blend designed for comfort, though individual sensitivities may vary.
What do the press studs on the front do?
The press studs are primarily a decorative design element to complement the bow detail at the center front.
What does 'four-piece cup' mean?
It means the cup is constructed from four separate panels of fabric, which allows for more complex shaping and better structural support than a simple two-piece cup.
Troubleshooting
Underwire digging into ribs
This often indicates that the band size is too small or the cup size is too shallow. Try increasing the band size while keeping the cup volume similar.
Straps slipping off shoulders
Adjust the tow-back straps to be tighter. Ensure the band is tight enough to anchor the bra, as a loose band often causes the straps to drift.
Lace appears stretched after washing
Ensure you are using cold water and avoid wringing out the fabric. Excess heat and mechanical agitation will degrade the LYCRA® content.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your bra, proper fit and care are essential:
- Fitting: Always check that the underwire sits flat against your ribcage without digging into breast tissue. The center gore should also sit flush against your sternum.
- Hand Washing: To protect the underwire and delicate lace, submerge the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Gently rub the fabric, rinse thoroughly, and lay flat to dry in the shade.
- Storage: Avoid folding the cups inward, as this can distort the shape of the laminated side support. Store flat or hung by the center gore.
- Compatibility: The Offbeat collection is designed to be paired with matching coordinates for a cohesive lingerie set.
