FAQs
Is this bra padded?
No, the Knickerbox Billie is a non-padded balcony bra, designed to provide a natural shape without the added bulk of foam.
Are the cups sheer?
Yes, the cups are made from transparent material accented with wave embroidery.
How should I clean this bra?
Hand wash in cool water with mild detergent and lay flat to dry to protect the hardware and embroidery.
What is the benefit of a balcony style?
The balcony style provides a flattering lift and a wide-set strap placement, which works well with various necklines.
Can I tumble dry the bra?
No, tumble drying is not recommended as it can damage the wires, hardware, and elastic components.
Is the hardware prone to tarnishing?
The brushed gold hardware is high-quality, but it should be kept away from harsh chemicals and excess moisture to maintain its finish.
Troubleshooting
Underwire is digging into the ribcage
Adjust the shoulder straps; if they are too tight, they can pull the wire upward into the body. Also, confirm you are wearing the correct band size.
Straps slipping off shoulders
Shorten the adjustable straps and ensure the band is fastened on the correct hook setting to provide a secure base.
Embroidery looking frayed
Ensure the bra is not being machine washed with other items that have hooks or zippers, which can snag the delicate mesh and embroidery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Knickerbox Billie bra, proper care is essential. Due to the delicate nature of the embroidered mesh and metallic hardware, it is highly recommended to hand wash the garment in cool water using a gentle detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the elasticity and damage the embroidery. Lay the bra flat or hang it by the center gore to dry; do not tumble dry, as the heat can distort the wire shape and cause the hardware to lose its finish. When putting on the bra, ensure the straps are adjusted to your preferred tension before clasping to avoid undue strain on the fabric.
