FAQs
What makes this bra suitable for fuller busts?
The bra features specially constructed cups and a laminated side support panel designed to maximize forward projection and uplift, providing enhanced support and shape for larger bust sizes.
Is this bra padded?
No, this is a non-padded bra. It utilizes its construction and side support panel to shape and support the bust.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the Berlei Embrace bra is hand wash only. Machine washing, especially tumble drying, can damage the straps and rings.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Ensure the band sits level, the cups fully enclose the breast tissue, and the straps are adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit. The underwire should follow the natural contour of your breast.
What is the purpose of the side support panel?
The laminated side support panel is designed to work with the cups to provide additional lift and enhance forward projection, helping to create a smoother silhouette and better shape.
Does the embroidery affect comfort?
The embroidery is described as 'super flat' and 'opulent', designed to lay smoothly against the skin and fabric without compromising comfort or creating bulk.
What does 'underwired' mean?
Underwired means there is a flexible metal or plastic wire sewn into the base of each cup. This wire provides structure, lift, and support to the breast.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is at the correct level and not too low.
Underwire discomfort
Ensure the bra is the correct size and fitted properly. The underwire should cup the breast tissue without digging into the skin. Check that the bra band is not too tight.
Bra doesn't feel supportive
Check that the bra band is securely fastened and sitting level around your body. Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly. The side support panel should be positioned correctly against the breast tissue.
Embroidery snagging
Handle with care when washing and wearing. Avoid prolonged contact with delicate fabrics that could catch on the embroidery.
