FAQs
What type of bust is this bra best suited for?
This bra is specifically designed for fuller busts and larger back sizes, providing enhanced support and shaping.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, this bra should only be hand washed in cool water with a mild detergent. Machine washing may damage the fabric and structure.
Is this bra padded?
No, the Berlei Embrace Side Support Bra features non-padded cups for a natural feel and shape.
What does 'side support' mean in a bra?
Side support refers to specific construction within the bra cups and band designed to anchor the breast tissue to the side and guide it forward, improving projection and reducing side spillage.
Why should I avoid tumble drying?
Tumble drying can expose the bra's components, such as straps and underwires, to excessive heat, which can cause them to weaken, melt, or break.
What materials is the bra made from?
The bra is made from a blend of 70% polyamide, 17% elastane, and 13% polyester.
Does the embroidery add bulk?
The embroidery is described as 'super flat' and 'opulent', designed to add a luxurious finish without adding significant bulk.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the back.
Underwire discomfort
Check that the bra size is correct, as an incorrect size can cause underwire to sit improperly. Ensure the underwire casing is intact.
Bra not providing enough support
Ensure the band is fastened on the loosest hook initially and that straps are adjusted correctly. The bra may need replacing if it is old.
Fabric pilling or damage after washing
Ensure you are hand washing with a mild detergent and avoiding harsh agitation. Always air dry and never tumble dry.
