FAQs

Is this bra suitable for very large cup sizes?

Yes, the Chantelle 2101 Amazone Underwired Bra is specifically designed with full coverage and reinforced support features to be suitable and comfortable for larger cup sizes.

What is the main benefit of the U-shaped back design?

The U-shaped back, also referred to as a leotard back, helps to distribute the weight of the bra and bust more evenly across the shoulders and back, providing ultimate comfort and reducing pressure points.

Can I machine wash this bra?

It is strongly recommended to hand wash the bra in cold water with a mild detergent. Machine washing, especially on a delicate cycle, can still cause damage to the underwire, embroidery, and fabric over time. Always check the care label for specific instructions.

Does this bra have padding?

No, the Chantelle 2101 Amazone is an unlined bra. The underwire cups create a natural lift and shape without added padding.

What does 'full coverage' mean in terms of bra style?

Full coverage means the bra cups are designed to fully enclose and contain the entire breast, offering a secure fit and preventing spillage or bulge. This style typically provides maximum support and minimizes the appearance of seams under clothing.

What are the materials used in this bra?

The bra features a fabric cup made of 100% polyamide, with the back comprising 80% polyamide and 20% elastane. The embroidery on the cup is made of 70% polyester, 26% polyamide, and 4% viscose.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A well-fitting bra should feel snug but comfortable. The band should sit parallel to the floor, the underwire should encircle the breast tissue, and there should be no gaping or spillage from the cups. Straps should stay in place without digging in.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging into shoulders

Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. The U-shaped back is designed to alleviate shoulder pressure, but proper strap adjustment is key.

Band riding up

Check if the band is the correct size. The double-lined mesh band should sit flat against the body. If the bra is new, the band may need a short break-in period. Ensure the hook closure is fastened on the loosest setting initially.

Underwire poking through fabric

This can occur with prolonged wear or improper washing. If the fabric has torn, it may need professional repair or replacement. Gentle washing and avoiding wringing can help prevent this.

Lack of support

Verify that the bra is the correct size, especially the cup size. Ensure all closures and straps are adjusted properly. The underwire and side reinforcement are designed for maximum support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent support and lift, especially for larger cup sizes.
  • The underwire and side reinforcement offer a natural, shapely look.
  • The U-shaped back design enhances comfort by reducing shoulder strain.
  • Adjustable straps allow for a customized and secure fit.
  • Combines functionality with an elegant French design aesthetic.

Cons

  • Full coverage may not suit those who prefer less encompassing styles.
  • Underwire construction, while supportive, might be less comfortable for some compared to wirefree options.
  • The inclusion of embroidery may require more delicate care.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This bra requires no assembly. Its primary function is to be worn as apparel. For care, it is recommended to hand wash the bra in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the delicate fabrics and embroidery. Rinse thoroughly and gently squeeze out excess water. Do not wring. Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. It is compatible with most standard bra extenders if a slightly looser band is desired. Please refer to the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.
