FAQs
What does 'minimiser bra' mean?
A minimiser bra is designed to distribute breast tissue to reduce the appearance of bust size, typically by up to one inch or one cup size, creating a smoother silhouette under clothing.
How do I know if I have the correct size?

Can I machine wash this bra?
No, this bra requires hand washing only. Machine washing and tumble drying can damage the fabric and components, affecting its fit and longevity.

Hand wash in cool water with mild detergent and lay flat or hang to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals and do not tumble dry.

Troubleshooting
Bra straps digging into shoulders
Ensure the bra is the correct size. The wide padded straps are designed for comfort, but if digging occurs, try adjusting the strap length or ensure the band is sitting correctly.
Underwire discomfort
Verify the bra size and cup fit. The wide wires are intended for support, but improper fit can cause discomfort. Check that the underwire casing is not damaged.
Bra shape lost after washing
Follow hand wash and air dry instructions carefully. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as heat and agitation can damage the fabric and structure.
Minimising effect not as expected
Ensure the bra is fitted correctly, with cups fully encompassing the breast tissue and the band sitting snugly. The minimisation is designed to reduce appearance by up to one size.
