FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Zarla Underwired Bra?

The primary benefit is its excellent support and shaping capabilities, provided by the non-stretch top cup and side support panels, which give a forward lift and smooth silhouette.

How should I wash this bra?

This bra must be hand washed only in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid using a washing machine or tumble dryer.

Is the embroidery delicate?

Yes, the abstract leaf and berry embroidery is delicate and designed for a flat stitch to minimize show-through. It requires careful hand washing to maintain its appearance.

What is the purpose of the double layer wings?

The double layer wings with encased elastics provide smooth, soft edges that lie flat against the skin, offering comfort and a sleek look with minimal rolling.

Can I wear this bra under tight clothing?

Yes, the sheer lining and flat embroidery are designed for minimal show-through, making it suitable for wearing under various types of clothing, including fitted styles.

What does 'non-stretch top cup' mean for support?

A non-stretch top cup helps to maintain the bra's shape and prevents the breast tissue from spilling over, contributing to a more secure and supported fit, especially for larger cup sizes.

What sizes use a 2-hook fastening versus a 3-hook fastening?

A 2-hook fastening is used for sizes 36-42DD, 36-40E, 36-38F, 36FF, 34G, 32GG. All other sizes use a 3-hook fastening.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging into shoulders

Ensure the bra is the correct size and the straps are adjusted properly. If the problem persists, the band size might be too large, causing the straps to bear too much weight.

Band riding up

The band may be too loose. Check if the band size is appropriate for your ribcage. The double-layer wings are designed to prevent this, but a properly fitted band is crucial.

Cups not fitting smoothly

Verify you are in the correct cup size. The non-stretch top cup and side support are designed for specific shaping; ensure the bra is sitting correctly on the breast tissue.

Embroidery appearing flat or damaged

This can occur if the bra has been washed incorrectly (e.g., machine washed or tumble dried). Ensure you are following the hand wash only and air dry instructions.
