Product Information
Full details
The Wacoal Raffiné Bra in Black is designed for adult women seeking a blend of sophisticated style and everyday comfort. Its key benefit lies in the three-part, underwired, semi-encompassing cup that offers a natural shape and excellent support, enhanced by contemporary floral lace detailing. A potential consideration is that the internal whalebone strength varies by size, meaning support levels are tailored but might feel different across a range of sizes.

Troubleshooting
Straps digging into shoulders
Adjust the strap length using the sliders for a comfortable fit. Ensure the bra band is at the correct level.
Bra band riding up
The band may be too loose. Try using the innermost hook-and-eye setting. If it still rides up, the band size might be incorrect.
Underwire poking or feeling uncomfortable
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. If the issue persists, the underwire may be damaged or the bra may be ill-fitting.
Lace feels scratchy
This can sometimes occur with new lace. Hand washing gently with a mild detergent may soften the fabric. Ensure you are not sensitive to the lace material.
