Product Information
Full details
The Karen Millen Gala Bra is designed for adult women seeking a smooth, seamless foundation for elegant necklines. Its key benefit is providing a defined décolletage and comfortable support without visible lines under clothing, making it ideal for special occasions. A potential caveat is its specific design for strapless and off-the-shoulder tops, limiting its versatility for everyday wear with all garment types.

FAQs
What type of necklines is the Gala Bra best suited for?
The Gala Bra is ideal for strapless, off-the-shoulder, bardot, and sweetheart necklines, as its design ensures a smooth, invisible line.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to standard bra sizing charts. Measure your band size and cup size. The product information specifies Size B Cup for this variant.
Can this bra be worn for everyday activities?
While comfortable, its strapless design is best suited for specific outfits rather than general everyday wear with standard tops.
How should I clean the Gala Bra?
Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to air dry.
Does the bra offer adequate support?
Yes, the moulded cups are designed to offer shape and support, particularly for occasions requiring a strapless foundation.
What material is the Gala Bra made from?
It is crafted from soft polyamide, providing a comfortable, second-skin feel.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Karen Millen Gala Bra is also available in White, in various cup sizes.
Troubleshooting
Bra straps slipping down
Ensure the bra is fastened on the tightest hook that still provides comfort. Check that the cups are filled appropriately for your size. If slipping persists, the bra may be too large or worn out.
Visible lines under clothing
Confirm that the garment worn over the bra is smooth and not overly tight. Ensure the bra's moulded cups are sitting correctly on the bust. For very clingy fabrics, consider a seamless thong or brief as well.
Discomfort or digging
Adjust the band and cup fit. Ensure the bra is the correct size; a band that is too tight will cause discomfort. Check for any internal seams that might be causing irritation.
