FAQs

What is a balcony bra?

A balcony bra, also known as a demi-cup bra, typically has cups that cover about half to three-quarters of the breast. It often features wider-set straps and provides a natural lift and cleavage.

How do I determine my correct bra size?

Measure your underbust (band size) and the fullest part of your bust (cup size). Many brands provide detailed sizing charts online. It's often best to get professionally fitted if possible.

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the Flirtelle Swirl Balcony Bra is designed with a 3-part cup and supportive construction, making it suitable for comfortable and shaping everyday wear.

What is the material composition of the bra?

The main fabric is 87% Polyester and 13% Elastane. The embroidery ground is 100% Polyamide, embroidery thread is 100% Polyester, lining is 100% Polyamide, and wing mesh is 73% Polyamide and 27% Elastane.

Are the straps removable?

No, the straps are fully adjustable but not removable.

How many hooks does the fastening have?

Fastening details vary by size. Sizes 32-36 F cups have a 2-hook fastening, while all other sizes have a 3-hook fastening.

Can I put this bra in the washing machine?

Hand washing is highly recommended to maintain the bra's shape and support. If you must use a machine, use a delicate cycle with a lingerie bag in cool water and avoid the dryer.

Troubleshooting

Bra feels uncomfortable or digs in

Ensure you have the correct band and cup size. The band should sit comfortably on your ribcage, and the cups should fully enclose the breast without spilling. Adjust the straps if they are too tight or too loose.

Straps are constantly slipping

Make sure the straps are adjusted correctly. If slipping persists, the bra might be too large in the band, or the straps may need to be tightened further. Ensure the bra is hooked on the loosest setting initially and tighten as needed.

Embroidery appears rough or irritating

This is uncommon, but if you experience irritation, ensure the bra is properly washed according to care instructions. Sometimes, a slight stiffness in new embroidery can soften after a few washes.

Underwire is poking or feels uncomfortable

This can indicate an incorrect cup size (too small) or a worn-out bra. Ensure the underwire channels are sitting correctly in the bra's base. If the bra is old, it may be time to replace it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent shape and support for everyday wear.
  • Features attractive, elegant embroidery for a stylish look.
  • Comfortable design with non-padded cups and soft fabrics.
  • Adjustable straps ensure a personalized fit.
  • Underwire offers reliable lift and separation.

Cons

  • Fastening details (number of hooks) vary by bra size.
  • Not padded, which may not be preferred by all users.
  • Specific sizes have different hook counts, requiring attention during purchase.
  • Embroidery placement might be visible under very thin clothing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As lingerie, this bra requires no setup beyond proper fitting. Ensure the band is level around your torso and the cups fully contain your bust. Adjust the straps for optimal comfort and support.

Compatibility: This bra is designed for adult women. It pairs well with various clothing styles, offering a smooth profile under most garments due to its balcony cut and non-padded design.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand wash recommended: Use cool water and a mild detergent.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
  • Reshape and dry flat: Gently reshape the bra while damp and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
  • Do not tumble dry: High heat can damage the fabric and elastic.
  • Check garment labels: Always refer to the specific care label for the most accurate instructions.
