Product Information

Full details

The Freya Viva Lace Side Support Bra is designed for adults seeking reliable support and a natural, uplifted silhouette without the bulk of padding. It features a sophisticated four-piece cup construction and an underwire design that caters to fuller busts, making it an excellent choice for daily wear. While its geometric lace offers a trendy, secure fit, potential buyers should note that the nylon construction requires careful handling during wash cycles to maintain its shape and integrity over time.

FAQs

Is this bra padded?

No, the Freya Viva is an unpadded bra designed to provide a natural shape.

How should I wash this bra?

Hand wash only in cool water and lay flat to dry to protect the lace and underwire.

Does it offer enough support for larger cup sizes?

Yes, the multi-section cup and underwire are specifically engineered for support in larger cup sizes.

Can I wear this under a thin t-shirt?

While the fabric is smooth, the decorative lace may show slightly under very tight, thin fabrics.

Are the straps fully adjustable?

Yes, the shoulder straps are fully adjustable to accommodate different torso lengths.

Troubleshooting

Straps sliding off the shoulder

Adjust the rear strap sliders to shorten the length until they sit comfortably without tension.

Underwire feels uncomfortable or pokes

Ensure the center gore sits flat against your chest. If it does not, you may need a different band size.

Lace upper feels loose

Check that you have pulled the tissue into the side support section during initial setup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides significant lift and natural shaping for fuller cup sizes.
  • The stretch lace upper prevents 'spillage' and provides a flexible fit.
  • Underwire ensures consistent support throughout the day.
  • Adjustable straps allow for significant customization.
  • Smooth finish makes it suitable for wearing under various clothing types.

Cons

  • Requires hand washing to ensure the underwire and lace remain in top condition.
  • The nylon material may feel less breathable than natural fibers during intense activity.
  • Limited to specific sizing ranges, so verifying your UK cup size is essential.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your Freya Viva, start by ensuring you are wearing the correct UK cup size, as the side support mechanics rely heavily on the band and cup proportions. When putting the bra on, lean forward slightly to ensure breast tissue is fully centered within the cups before hooking the rear fastening. For care, it is highly recommended to hand wash the garment in cool water using a gentle lingerie detergent. Never tumble dry, as the heat can compromise the elasticity of the nylon and the structural integrity of the underwire. Store the bra flat or hang by the center gore to prevent cups from misshaping.
