FAQs

What material is the KBX Harper Underwired Body made from?

The body is made from a blend of elegant scalloped lace and microfiber material (Polyester).

Are the cups padded?

No, the cups are non-padded but feature underwire for support and gentle shaping.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing guide, paying close attention to bust, waist, and hip measurements. For underwired items, accurate band and cup size measurements are crucial.

Can I wear this with a low-cut top?

The Harper body is designed with lace detailing around the hips and neckline, which may not be suitable for all low-cut garments. However, the smooth silhouette can work well under many outfits.

Is the gold hardware durable?

The hardware is brushed gold-toned. To maintain its finish, follow the recommended care instructions and avoid harsh chemicals or excessive friction.

Does this offer tummy control?

The body features an elasticated waistband designed to enhance the figure, but it does not provide strong compression or significant tummy control. It focuses more on a smooth silhouette.

Can I wear nipple covers with this body?

Yes, as shown in the product image, nipple covers can be worn underneath for a smooth appearance.

Troubleshooting

Underwire feels uncomfortable or digs in.

Ensure you have the correct size; the underwire should sit smoothly around the bust. If discomfort persists, the style may not be suitable for your shape. Adjust the fit of the bra straps if applicable.

Lace around the hips is visible under clothing.

Ensure the lace is lying flat against the body. Try smoothing it down after putting on your outer garment. If the issue persists, the fabric of your outer garment may be too thin for the lace detailing.

Body rides up or feels restrictive.

Check that you have selected the correct size. The garment should fit snugly but not constrict. Ensure the leg openings and crotch area are correctly positioned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Harper Underwired Body requires no setup beyond being worn. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and support. The garment typically fastens with hook-and-eye closures at the crotch, which should be secured after putting on the body.

Compatibility:

This body is designed to be worn as intimate apparel, compatible with a wide range of clothing styles, including dresses, skirts, trousers, and blouses. Its seamless design makes it particularly suitable for form-fitting garments.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Alternatively, use a delicate cycle on your washing machine, placed inside a mesh laundry bag.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to air dry, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Ironing: Avoid ironing. If necessary, use a very cool iron setting on the fabric portions only, taking care not to press the lace or hardware.
