FAQs
What makes this bra suitable for fuller busts?
The Berlei Embrace Side Support Bra is designed with specially constructed cups and integrated side support panels to provide enhanced uplift, projection, and containment specifically for larger cup and back sizes.
Can this bra be worn under tight clothing?
Yes, the smooth fabric and supportive design help to create a seamless look under most clothing, including fitted tops and dresses.
What is the best way to care for this bra?
It is essential to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent and lay flat or hang to air dry. Do not tumble dry, as this can damage components like straps and rings.
What does 'side support' mean in a bra?
Side support refers to panels or construction within the bra that help to draw the breast tissue towards the center, enhancing forward projection and providing a more lifted appearance, while also helping to prevent outward spread.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The bra band should feel snug and sit parallel to your back. The cups should fully enclose your breasts without gaping or spilling over, and the underwire should lie flat against your ribcage.
What is the material composition of the bra?
The bra is made from a blend of 70% Polyamide, 17% Elastane, and 13% Polyester.
Are the straps adjustable?
Yes, the bra features fully adjustable supportive straps to allow for a customized and secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Adjust the shoulder straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your back, as a band that is too loose can cause straps to bear too much weight.
Band riding up
The band may be too large or not sitting correctly. Ensure the band is snug and parallel to the floor. You may need to go down a band size.
Underwire discomfort
Ensure you have the correct cup size; an underwire that digs in often means the cup is too small. Check that the underwire is sitting flat against the rib cage and not on breast tissue.
Fabric losing shape
Ensure the bra is being hand-washed and air-dried according to care instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing/drying which can degrade the fabric.
