FAQs

What makes the Smoothie Lace Bra different from other bras?

The Smoothie Lace Bra features lightweight moulded lace cups with an infinity-edge fabric for a seamless, second-skin feel. It also incorporates a side support sling for enhanced lift and shaping, offering a unique combination of comfort and support.

Is this bra suitable for formal wear?

Yes, its smooth, seamless finish makes it a good option under formal attire where visible bra lines are undesirable. However, for very delicate or sheer fabrics, its lace texture might be slightly discernible.

What is the best way to care for this bra?

It's crucial to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting. Do not tumble dry, as heat can damage the fabric and components. Lay flat to dry instead.

Does the underwire offer comfort for long periods?

The underwire is designed to provide structure and support. While many find it comfortable for all-day wear, individual comfort can vary. Ensure the fit is correct, with the wire sitting flat against the body.

Can I wear this bra if I prefer non-padded bras?

Absolutely. This bra is non-padded and designed to provide natural shaping and support without adding volume.

What does 'infinity-edge fabric' mean?

Infinity-edge fabric refers to a special type of construction that allows the fabric to lie flat and smooth against the skin, creating a seamless, barely-there feel without digging in or showing lines.

How does the side support sling work?

The inner sling is strategically placed on the side of the cup to gently pull the breast tissue towards the center, providing added lift, projection, and a more flattering shape.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the straps to a comfortable, secure setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as an ill-fitting band can cause straps to carry too much weight.

Bra not providing enough support

Check if the band size is correct. The majority of support comes from the band; it should be snug but comfortable. Ensure the cups are fully encapsulating the breast tissue and that the side support sling is positioned correctly.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the underwire is sitting flat against the ribcage and within the breast tissue, not on top of it. If discomfort persists, the bra size or shape may not be ideal for your body.

Lace appearing through thin fabric

While designed to be seamless, the lace texture might be subtly visible under very thin or clingy materials. Consider wearing a padded or smoother cup bra for such garments if a completely invisible line is essential.
