FAQs
Is this bra padded?
No, the Freya Offbeat Side Support Bra relies on its four-piece construction and laminated side panels for shape and lift rather than foam padding.
How should I clean this bra?
This bra is hand wash only. Use a mild detergent in cool water and allow it to air dry.
Why is it called a side support bra?
It features a specific side sling and laminated panel that helps move the breast tissue forward and inward, preventing it from spreading to the sides.
What is the difference between this and a standard cup?
The four-piece construction provides more architectural support and better forward projection than traditional two-piece or molded cups.
Do the straps stay in place?
Yes, the straps are fully adjustable to ensure a custom fit that helps prevent slipping.
Are UK sizes different from US sizes?
Yes, UK sizing typically follows a different progression, especially in larger cup sizes. Always consult the Freya size guide before selecting your size.
Troubleshooting
Straps slipping off shoulders
Adjust the strap length using the rear sliders to ensure they are snug but not restricting.
Wire digging into the side
Ensure the bra is sized correctly and that the side support panel is sitting flush against your ribcage rather than resting on breast tissue.
Lace losing its shape
Avoid machine washing, as the agitation can damage the Lycra content in the lace.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this product uses UK sizing, it is essential to reference the specific brand size chart before purchasing to ensure the correct band and cup fit. When putting on the bra, ensure the underwire rests flat against your sternum and the side panels are positioned correctly to provide the intended lift. Regarding care, this item is strictly hand wash only to protect the integrity of the underwire, the lace elastic, and the laminated side panels. Lay the bra flat to dry and avoid wringing or twisting the cups to prevent warping.
