Product Information

Full details

The Curvy Kate Strawberry Crush Balcony Bra is designed for adults seeking a combination of reliable uplift and aesthetic appeal. Featuring intricate floral embroidery and a lightweight, semi-sheer mesh construction, this piece is perfect for those who want a secure, supportive fit without sacrificing a delicate, feminine look. While the balcony style provides an excellent 'cakes-on-a-plate' silhouette, users should note that the semi-sheer material may show through very thin or light-colored fabrics.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this bra padded?

No, the Strawberry Crush Balcony Bra is non-padded, featuring a semi-sheer mesh construction.

Can I put this bra in the washing machine?

It is strongly recommended to hand wash this item to protect the delicate floral embroidery and underwire.

What is a balcony bra?

A balcony bra (or balconette) has a lower, straighter neckline and wider-set straps, designed to lift the bust to create a rounded, flattering shape.

How many hooks does the closure have?

It uses a 2-hook, 3-column closure for most sizes, while larger sizes are reinforced with 3 hooks for extra support.

Is the material stretchy?

The bra is made from polyester, providing a balance of structural support and enough flexibility for a comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping off the shoulders

Adjust the rear sliders to shorten the strap length until the tension is even across both shoulders.

Underwire digging into the ribs

Ensure the center gore (the middle section between the cups) is sitting flat against your sternum; if it is not, you may require a different band size.

Cup fabric wrinkling

Check that your breast tissue is fully scooped into the cup; if the issue persists, the cup size may be too large for your current shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent uplift and support for fuller busts
  • Beautiful floral embroidery design
  • Straighter neckline makes it versatile for different necklines
  • Lightweight and breathable materials

Cons

  • Semi-sheer fabric requires careful consideration of outer garments
  • Hand wash only requirement for maintenance
  • Limited to specific sizing structures

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Curvy Kate bra, proper handling is essential.

Compatibility: This bra features a standard hook-and-eye closure. Larger band and cup sizes incorporate a 3-column, 3-hook system to provide wider weight distribution and better back support.

Care Instructions:

  1. Hand Wash Only: To maintain the integrity of the floral embroidery and the elasticity of the mesh, hand washing in cool water is strictly recommended.
  2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the synthetic fibers.
  3. Air Dry: Always lay the bra flat or hang it to dry away from direct heat sources to prevent warping of the underwire or loss of shape.
