Product Information

Full details

This Freya Essentially Smooth Balcony Moulded Padded Bra is designed for women seeking everyday comfort and support without sacrificing shape. Its key benefit is providing a smooth, natural look under clothing with excellent lift and comfort. A potential consideration is that moulded cups may not suit all bust shapes. This bra features padded balcony cups, underwiring, opaque wings, soft brushed inner cups, fully adjustable straps with a tow-back design, and a J-hook for racerback conversion, offering a blend of function and subtle shaping.

FAQs

What makes the 'Essentially Smooth' collection unique?

The 'Essentially Smooth' collection focuses on creating a seamless look under clothing with comfortable, supportive designs suitable for everyday wear. Key features include smooth finishes, comfortable materials, and versatile adjustability.

How do I determine my correct bra size?

Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your ribcage directly under your bust. Measure your cup size by loosely measuring around the fullest part of your bust. Consult a size chart or a professional bra fitter for accurate sizing.

Can the J-hook be used with all types of tops?

The J-hook is primarily used to convert the bra into a racerback style, which is ideal for tops with racerback designs, wider necklines, or specific strap placements that benefit from a more secure, central strap position.

How often should I replace my bra?

Bras typically need replacement every 6-12 months with regular wear and washing, depending on care and usage frequency. Signs it's time for a new bra include stretched bands, worn-out elastic, and loss of shape or support.

Is this bra suitable for larger busts?

Yes, Freya is known for its extensive size range, catering to various bust sizes. This moulded balcony bra offers underwire support and firm cups, making it suitable for providing lift and shape for larger busts.

What is the benefit of the brushed inner cups?

The brushed inner cups provide a softer, more luxurious feel against the skin, enhancing overall comfort, especially during extended wear.

Troubleshooting

Straps are digging in or causing discomfort.

Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is at the correct hook and eye closure for adequate support, reducing reliance on the straps.

Bra is not providing enough support.

Check if the band size is correct and sitting comfortably parallel to the floor. Ensure the cups are fully enclosing the breast tissue and the underwire is positioned correctly.

Underwire is poking or feels uncomfortable.

This may indicate an incorrect band or cup size. Ensure the underwire channels are sitting smoothly in the breast crease. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different style or size.

Smooth finish is not achieved under clothing.

Ensure the bra is the correct size and the wings and cups are lying flat against the body. Check for any bulges or seams that might be visible.
