Product Information
Full details
This Dorina Leila bra is designed for adult women seeking comfortable support for fuller busts. Its key benefit is the combination of breathable spacer cups and a smooth micro band for a 'second skin' feel. A potential caveat is that hand washing is the only recommended cleaning method. The bra features underwire, padded shoulder straps, and a floral lace design, offering both shaping and pressure relief.

FAQs
What makes this bra suitable for fuller busts?
The bra features underwire, a supportive cradle, and lightweight spacer cups with a hidden side sling, all designed to provide shape, lift, and support for larger cup sizes.
How do the padded shoulder straps help?
The padding distributes the weight of the bra more evenly across the shoulders, reducing pressure points and enhancing comfort, especially for larger busts that require more support.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the bra is strictly hand wash only. Machine washing can damage the delicate lace, underwire, and cup structure.
What does 'spacer cup' mean?
Spacer cups are made from a lightweight, breathable, multi-layered fabric that offers shape and support without adding bulk. They allow for better air circulation, keeping the skin cooler and drier.
Is the floral lace scratchy?
The lace is designed to be aesthetically pleasing while the inner lining of the cups and the smooth micro band prioritize comfort. Hand washing before first use can also help soften the material.
What is the purpose of the 'micro band'?
The micro band is a smooth, often seamless, underbust band made from a soft fabric. It is designed to lie flat against the skin for a comfortable, 'second skin' feel without digging in or creating visible lines under clothing.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
The band should be snug and parallel to the floor. The cups should fully enclose the breast without gaping or spilling over. The underwire should lie flat against your ribcage. If unsure, consulting a professional bra fitter is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging into shoulders
Adjust the shoulder straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your ribcage, as this takes most of the support.
Bra band riding up
The band may be too loose. Ensure you are fastening the bra on the loosest hook initially; it should feel snug but not tight. Over time, as the band stretches, you can move to tighter hooks.
Underwire discomfort
Verify the bra size is correct. The underwire should encase the breast tissue completely and lie flat against the ribcage. If it's poking or digging, the cup size or band size may be incorrect.
Lace feels itchy
Ensure the bra is washed according to care instructions before the first wear. If irritation persists, consider trying a different style with less intricate lace detailing, though the inner cup lining is designed for comfort.
