Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the Adella Athena bra padded?

No, the Adella Athena is a non-padded bra. It features a 4-part cup construction with laminated bottom cups for uplift and shaping.

What type of support does this bra offer?

It offers underwired support with a full cup design and side support features, providing a secure and uplifted shape suitable for fuller figures.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to a reliable bra sizing guide and measure your band and cup size accurately. This guide is for a 40GG, but other sizes are available.

Can I machine wash this bra?

It is recommended to hand wash the Adella Athena bra in cool water with a mild detergent to preserve its delicate materials and construction.

What is the material composition?

The main material is 100% Polyester, with lace made of 88% Polyamide and 12% Elastane, and lining/wing mesh primarily Polyamide and Elastane.

Does this bra offer seamless coverage under clothing?

While it offers full coverage and a smooth shape, the lace detailing on the top cup might be visible under very thin or tight fabrics. The overall construction aims for a seamless look.

What does 'Side Support' mean in the bra's name?

Side support refers to design features, like the deep powermesh wings and specific cup paneling, that help to gently pull the breast tissue towards the center, providing a more forward and contained shape and reducing outward projection.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping off shoulders

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly. If slipping persists, check if the band is sitting correctly and consider if a different size or style might be a better fit.

Underwire poking or feeling uncomfortable

Verify correct bra fit, particularly the center gore and band. Ensure the underwire casing is intact. If discomfort is persistent, this style might not be suitable for your body shape.

Band riding up

The band should be snug and parallel to the floor. If it rides up, the band may be too large, or the bra needs to be fastened on a tighter hook setting.

Lace feels rough or irritating

Ensure the bra has been washed according to care instructions. Sometimes, a few washes can soften the lace. If irritation continues, the sensitivity of your skin may require a different material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent uplift and a rounded shape for fuller busts.
  • Wide, non-slip straps enhance comfort and prevent digging.
  • Deep powermesh wings offer comfortable back and side support.
  • Elegant lace detailing adds a touch of sophistication.
  • Secure, full-coverage design for confidence.

Cons

  • Non-padded design may not offer desired shaping for all users.
  • Underwired construction might be less comfortable for those who prefer wire-free options.
  • Specific care instructions are required to maintain fabric integrity.
  • Limited to a specific color family (Beige) in this variant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is an undergarment designed for direct wear. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and support. The bra fastens with 3 hooks across 3 columns, allowing for slight adjustments to tightness.

Compatibility:

While designed for fuller figures, the specific sizing (40GG in this variant) needs to be confirmed against individual measurements. It pairs well with the Curvy Kate Kin full brief for a coordinated set.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand wash only.
  • Wash in cool water with a mild detergent.
  • Do not bleach.
  • Lay flat to dry.
  • Do not iron or tumble dry.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners.
