FAQs

Is this bra padded?

No, the Flirtelle Swirl Balcony Bra is a non-padded style, offering a natural shape and feel.

What is the main benefit of the 3-part cup design?

The 3-part cup, along with the inner mesh layer and underwire, is designed to provide excellent support, lift, and shape for the bust.

How do I determine my correct size?

It is recommended to measure your band size and cup size. Typically, you measure around your ribcage (band) and then around the fullest part of your bust (cup). Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for accurate measurements.

Can I wear this bra under tight-fitting clothes?

Yes, the smooth microfibre outer material is designed to create a sleek finish, making it suitable for wearing under most types of clothing without showing lines.

What is the difference in hook fastening between sizes?

Sizes 32-36 F cups use a 2-hook fastening, while all other sizes utilize a 3-hook fastening for a more secure fit appropriate for larger bands and cups.

How should I care for my bra to ensure longevity?

Hand washing or machine washing on a gentle cycle with cold water and similar colors, using a lingerie bag, is recommended. Always lay flat to dry and avoid heat sources like dryers or irons.

What is the advantage of the wide straps?

The wide straps, often brushed-back for comfort, help to distribute weight more evenly, reducing pressure on the shoulders and enhancing overall comfort and support, especially for larger busts.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the band is not too tight, as this can cause straps to compensate.

Underwire poking

Check that the bra is the correct size and that the underwire channels are intact. Ensure the bra is not overstretched or damaged. Hand wash gently if the underwire casing feels stiff.

Bra not providing enough support

Verify the correct cup and band size. Ensure the band is fastened on the loosest hooks if new, and the straps are adjusted correctly. The bra may need replacement if old and stretched.

Embroidery snagging

Be cautious when washing and wearing to avoid snagging the delicate embroidery. If a thread snags, do not pull it; try to gently tuck it back in or trim carefully with small scissors if necessary.
