FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Raffine bra's cup design?
The three-section average wire cup is designed to provide an ideal, natural shape to the bust, offering both support and a flattering silhouette without excessive padding.
Is the lace on the bra scratchy?
The bra uses ultra-fine lace, and the cups are lined for comfort. However, individual sensitivity to lace can vary. Hand washing before first use is recommended.
How do I determine my correct bra size?
Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your rib cage just under your bust. Measure your cup size by wrapping the tape around the fullest part of your bust. Consult Wacoal's sizing guide for accurate conversions.
Can I wear this bra with very low-cut tops?
The intricate dropped centre front is designed to sit lower, which can be suitable for some lower necklines. However, the overall coverage depends on the specific garment.
What does 'average wire cup' mean?
An average wire cup generally refers to a bra with underwire that covers a standard portion of the breast, providing lift and separation suitable for most bust types.
Are the shoulder straps removable?
No, the shoulder straps are adjustable but not removable. They are designed to be worn in a standard configuration.
Can this bra be machine washed?
Hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the delicate lace and elastic. If using a machine, use a lingerie bag on a delicate cycle with cold water and mild detergent, and avoid the dryer.
Troubleshooting
Bra straps digging in
Loosen the adjustable shoulder straps slightly. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of the bust.
Underwire poking out or uncomfortable
This may indicate an incorrect size or a defect. Ensure the band and cups fit properly. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Lace feels itchy
Gently hand wash the bra before first wear. If the itchiness continues, the material may not be suitable for sensitive skin.
Bra rides up or band slips
Check if the band is too loose or if the bra is the wrong size. The band should be parallel to the floor and fit snugly.
