FAQs
What makes this bra a 'minimiser'?
The Berlei Beauty Stripe Smoothing Bra is designed with cups that distribute breast tissue more evenly and outward, reducing the overall projection and making the bust appear up to one cup size smaller. This creates a smoother silhouette under clothing.
Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, it is designed for everyday wear, providing comfortable support throughout the day. The smooth finish and minimizing effect are beneficial for various outfits.
What is the benefit of the striped mesh detail?
The striped mesh detail adds a stylish, modern aesthetic to the bra while also potentially offering increased breathability and a lighter feel in those specific areas.
How do I know if I have the right size?
A properly fitted bra should have the band sitting level and snug on your ribcage, the center gore (the part between the cups) lying flat against your sternum, and the cups fully enclosing your breasts without spillage or gapping. Straps should not dig in or slip off.
Can this bra be worn under tight-fitting clothes?
Yes, this bra is ideal for wearing under tight-fitting clothes due to its smoothing and minimizing features, which help to create a streamlined appearance.
What are the washing instructions?
It is recommended to hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid tumble drying; instead, lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight.
Does this bra offer underwire support?
The product description does not explicitly state if this specific variant (B541) is underwired. Some related models in the Beauty Stripe range are underwired, while others are not. Please check the product tag or specific product details for confirmation.
Troubleshooting
Bra straps digging in
Adjust the strap length. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as an incorrectly fitted band can cause straps to bear too much weight.
Band riding up
The band may be too large. Check if a smaller band size would provide a more secure fit. The bra should sit snuggly and level on your back.
Cups not fitting smoothly
Ensure you have selected the correct cup size. The minimizing effect relies on the cup fully encasing the breast. Adjust the center gore to sit flat against the chest.
Discomfort under the arms
Check that the underarm casing is not twisted or folded. Ensure the bra is the correct size and hasn't been over-tightened. Consider a different style if irritation persists.
