FAQs
How do I know if I have the right size?
A correctly fitted bra should have the band sitting level around your back, and the center gore should lie flat against your sternum without pressing painfully.
Can I put this bra in the dryer?
No. The heat from a dryer will degrade the elasticity of the straps and fabric, and it can cause the underwire to warp or poke through the casing.
Is this bra suitable for daily wear?
Yes, it is designed specifically for '24h' comfort, meaning it is intended to provide support and ease during a full day of wear.
What material is this bra made from?
The Playtex 24h Soft Absolute range typically uses high-quality polyester blends for durability and ease of care.
Does this provide a natural shape?
Yes, the combination of padded cups and underwire provides a rounded, lifted, and natural shape that is flattering under most clothing.
Troubleshooting
Underwire is digging into the ribcage
The band might be too tight. Try a larger band size or ensure the straps are adjusted properly so the weight is evenly distributed.
Cups are gapping at the top
The cup size may be too large. Check if the bra fits correctly in the band first; if the band is loose, the cups will not sit flush against the body.
Straps slipping off the shoulders
Tighten the adjustable straps. If the issue persists, the shoulder strap elastic may have worn out after extensive use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Playtex bra, always refer to the care label inside the garment. It is highly recommended to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent to protect the integrity of the underwires and the elasticity of the fabric. If you must use a machine, place the bra in a protective mesh laundry bag and use a delicate cycle. Always air dry the bra by laying it flat or hanging it by the center gore—never place it in the dryer, as the heat can break down the elastic fibers and deform the padded cups. Check the fit periodically, as body shape can change over time, necessitating a re-evaluation of your band and cup size.
