FAQs
Is this bra suitable for very large busts?
Yes, the Curvy Kate Enclose collection is known for its excellent support for fuller busts, offering full cup coverage and side support features.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, this bra must be hand washed only with a mild detergent. Machine washing can damage the fabric and construction.
What is the 'side support' feature?
Side support refers to panels integrated into the bra cups that help to lift and project the bust forward, reducing side spillage and creating a smoother shape.
Is the faux leather material durable?
When cared for according to the instructions (hand wash only, lay flat to dry), the faux leather material should maintain its appearance and integrity.
Can the harness detail be removed?
The harness details are part of the bra's design and are typically not removable, but the adjustable strapping can be customized to your preference.
What bra size am I if I wear a 42G?
The product information states this specific listing is for a 42G. Bra sizing can vary slightly between brands, so always refer to the brand's specific size chart if unsure.
Is this bra padded?
No, this is a non-padded bra, meaning it offers support and shape without any added foam or padding.
Troubleshooting
Bra not providing enough support
Ensure you have the correct band and cup size. Check that all adjustable straps are tightened appropriately and that the side support panels are positioned correctly against the body.
Underwire digging in or causing discomfort
This may indicate an incorrect cup size or band size. Try a different size or consult a professional bra fitter. Ensure the underwire is sitting flat against the ribcage.
Faux leather material creasing or losing shape
Avoid harsh wringing or machine washing. Follow the hand-wash-only and lay-flat-to-dry instructions carefully. Store the bra flat or unhooked to prevent creasing.
Straps slipping down
Adjust the shoulder straps to a snug fit. Ensure the back band is sitting level and is not too loose. If straps continue to slip, consider the fit of the cups and band.
