FAQs

How do I determine my correct bra size?

Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your ribcage directly under your bust. Then, measure your cup size by wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust. Consult a size chart or a professional bra fitter for the most accurate measurement.

What makes the Wacoal Raffine bra suitable for everyday wear?

Its three-section cups provide a natural shape and comfortable support, while the soft lace and adjustable straps ensure comfort throughout the day. The smooth silhouette it creates is ideal under most clothing.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra is recommended for hand wash only. Machine washing can damage the delicate lace and elastic components.

What is the main benefit of the three-section cup design?

The three-section cup design is engineered to provide a natural, rounded shape and excellent support without creating excessive projection.

What does 'average wire cup' mean?

This refers to the underwire's shape and placement, designed to encapsulate the breast for a natural shape and adequate support, suitable for a variety of bust types without being overly minimizing or maximizing.

Are the decorative straps meant to be shown?

Yes, the decorative elements on the straps are designed to add a touch of style and can be intentionally shown if desired, complementing outfits with a refined aesthetic.

What materials are used in the Wacoal Raffine bra?

The primary materials are Nylon and Polyamide (often referred to as nylon in the description), with the specific composition being 76% Nylon/Polyamide.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping off shoulders

Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly to fit snugly. Check that the bra is the right size; if the band is too loose, straps are more likely to slip.

Band riding up

The band may be too large. Try a smaller band size or ensure the bra is fastened on the tightest hook setting if it's new.

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the natural breast crease. If discomfort persists, the bra size or shape may not be suitable for your body.

Lace feels itchy

While designed to be soft, some individuals may be sensitive to lace. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions to soften the fabric. Consider trying a bra with less lace detailing if sensitivity is a major concern.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a natural and smooth bust shape.
  • Comfortable fit with secure support wings.
  • Delicate floral lace detailing adds a refined aesthetic.
  • Adjustable straps ensure a personalized fit.
  • Suitable for everyday wear under various outfits.

Cons

  • Recommended for hand wash only, requiring careful cleaning.
  • May not provide sufficient lift or projection for all bust types.
  • Stretch lace on the top cup might not offer the same level of containment as firmer materials.
  • Decorative elastic trim could be a concern for those with very sensitive skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and support. Adjust the shoulder straps using the sliders for a personalized fit. Fasten the bra using the hook-and-eye closure at the back.

Compatibility: The Wacoal Raffine bra is designed for women and pairs well with various apparel, from everyday wear to more refined outfits. It is particularly effective under clothing where a smooth, natural shape is desired. Matching briefs from the Raffine collection are available to complete the set.

Care: This product is recommended for hand wash only. Use cool water and a mild detergent. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners, as these can damage the delicate lace and elastic.
