Product Information
Full details
The Gossard Glossies High Apex Light Padded Bra is designed for adult women seeking a blend of everyday comfort and subtle shaping. Its key benefit is providing a natural uplift and a smooth, opaque look thanks to light padding, while the high apex design offers a modern, feminine aesthetic. A potential caveat is that 'light padding' may not offer significant support for very full busts or require additional support for high-impact activities.

FAQs
What is the main benefit of the 'High Apex' design?
The high apex design creates a natural uplift and a sleek, modern silhouette, enhancing the bust shape.
Is the light padding suitable for daily wear?
Yes, the light padding is designed for everyday comfort and provides opacity without adding significant bulk, making it suitable for various outfits.
Can this bra be worn for sports or exercise?
This bra is designed for comfort and everyday wear. It is not intended for high-impact sports and may not provide sufficient support for vigorous activities.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Gossard sizing chart, typically found on the retailer's website or the brand's official site. Ensure you measure your band and cup size accurately for the best fit.
What material is the bra made from?
The Gossard Glossies High Apex Light Padded Bra is primarily made from Polyester, which contributes to its durability and shape retention.
How should I wash this bra?
It is recommended to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying to preserve its structure and delicate features.
What does 'sheer neckline' mean in this context?
The sheer neckline refers to a portion of the bra's upper cup or neckline being made of a transparent or semi-transparent fabric, adding a delicate visual detail.
Troubleshooting
Straps dig into shoulders
Adjust the bra straps to a looser setting. Ensure the band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as this provides most of the support.
Bra feels unsupportive
Check if the band size is correct; a band that is too loose will not provide adequate support. Consider if this bra is appropriate for the activity level, as light padding offers minimal support for high impact.
Padding appears uneven or creased
Ensure the bra was not over-wring or stored improperly. Hand wash gently and reshape the padding while damp. Lay flat to dry.
Sheer neckline is too visible under clothing
Consider layering with complementary undergarments or choosing tops with higher necklines. The sheer element is a design feature and may be visible with very thin or light-coloured outer layers.
