Berlei Beauty Stripe Smoothing Bra - Black - Size 16

A minimiser bra is designed to redistribute the breast tissue to create a visually smaller, flatter appearance, reducing the perceived size of the bust, often by up to one cup size.

The band should fit snugly around your ribcage, sitting parallel to the cups. The cups should fully enclose your breast tissue without spilling over or creating gaps. The straps should not dig in or slip off.

Yes, it is designed for comfort and support, making it suitable for everyday wear, especially when a smooth silhouette is desired.

The material composition is 62% Polyamide, 20% Elastane, and 18% Polyester, exclusive of trims.

Hand washing helps to preserve the delicate fabric, elastic, and underwire structure. Machine washing or tumble drying can damage the materials and shorten the bra's lifespan.

The bra is designed for a smooth silhouette and is generally invisible under clothing. The stripe mesh detail is subtle and intended to be discreet.

Ensure you have selected the correct band and cup size. Adjust the hook-and-eye closure for a snug but comfortable fit. Check that the straps are adjusted correctly and not too tight.

Adjust the strap length using the sliders. If slippage persists, ensure the band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as a well-fitting band provides the primary support.

While designed for a smooth silhouette, ensure your outerwear is not overly tight. The bra's design aims to minimise this, but very thin or tight fabrics may still show contours.

Ensure you are strictly following the hand wash only and no tumble dry instructions. Use a mild detergent and avoid excessive wringing.
