FAQs
How often should I hand wash this bra?
It is recommended to hand wash your Freya Fascinate bra after every few wears, or when it appears dirty, to maintain hygiene and fabric integrity. Always follow the care label instructions.
Can I use a regular detergent?
It's best to use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicates or lingerie. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners which can degrade the lace and elastic.
What does 'Balcony Bra' mean?
A balcony bra, also known as a balcony or balconette bra, typically has cups that are cut horizontally, offering less coverage than a full cup bra. It is designed to lift and separate the breasts, creating a rounded, 'boosted' appearance, and often works well with lower necklines.
What is 'eyelash edging'?
Eyelash edging refers to a decorative finish on lace where the threads are left longer and finer, resembling eyelashes. It adds a delicate and refined detail to the bra's trim.
How do I know if I have the right band size?
The band should be snug and sit parallel to the floor all the way around. You should be able to fit two fingers comfortably between the band and your back. The band provides most of the support, not the straps.
Does this bra offer significant uplift?
Yes, the underwired balcony design is specifically engineered to provide a rounded uplift and support, enhancing the natural shape of the bust.
What materials is the bra made from?
The bra is constructed from a blend of Polyamide and Elastane for the lace, mesh, and wing. The cup lining is 100% Polyamide.
Troubleshooting
Bra is uncomfortable or digging in.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check that the band is sitting level and the straps are adjusted properly without being too tight.
Straps are slipping.
Make sure the straps are tightened appropriately. If slippage persists, the bra may need replacing or may not be the best fit for your body shape.
Lace appears damaged after washing.
Ensure you are hand washing gently and avoiding harsh detergents or scrubbing. Never put the bra in a washing machine or tumble dryer.
Band rides up.
The band may be too large. Try tightening the hooks. If the band continues to ride up, consider a smaller band size.
