FAQs

What makes the Adella Athena bra suitable for fuller figures?

The bra is designed with a 4-part cup construction, laminated bottom cups for uplift, deep powermesh wings for support, and wide, non-slip straps to comfortably accommodate and support fuller busts.

Is this bra padded?

No, the Adella Athena Side Support Bra is non-padded. It offers support and shaping through its construction rather than padding.

How do I care for my Adella Athena bra?

Hand wash only in cool water with mild detergent. Lay flat to dry and avoid machine washing, tumble drying, bleaching, or ironing.

What material is the bra made from?

The main fabric is 100% Polyester. The lace is made of 88% Polyamide and 12% Elastane, and the lining and wing mesh are primarily Polyamide and Elastane.

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

'Side Support' refers to the construction of the cups and wings, which are designed to provide additional support from the sides of the breast, helping to bring the bust forward and create a more projected, rounded shape.

How often should I check the fit of my bra?

It's recommended to check your bra fit periodically, especially after weight fluctuations or significant body changes. A well-fitting bra should feel comfortable and supportive without digging in or slipping.

Can I wear this bra for sports or high-impact activities?

This bra is designed for everyday comfort and support. For high-impact sports, a specialized sports bra offering higher levels of encapsulation and support is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Straps keep slipping down.

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly and not over-tightened. Check that the bra band is sitting parallel to the floor, as this provides the primary support. If slippage persists, the bra may be too large in the band or cup, or the straps may need adjustment for your specific shoulder shape.

Band feels too tight or too loose.

Try fastening the bra on the loosest hook if it feels too tight. If it feels too loose even on the tightest hook, the band size may be incorrect. The band should provide a snug fit, allowing only two fingers underneath.

Underwire is uncomfortable or digging in.

Ensure the cups are fitting correctly, with no spillage or gapping. The underwire should lie flat against the rib cage and encircle the breast tissue. If discomfort persists, the cup size or shape might not be suitable for your breast shape.

Bra is not providing enough support or lift.

Confirm the bra is fastened correctly and straps are adjusted. The 4-part cup and laminated bottom cups are designed for uplift; if support is lacking, re-evaluate the cup and band size to ensure a proper fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This bra is designed for immediate wear. Ensure the back closure is fastened correctly (typically 3 hooks and 3 columns) and adjust the fully adjustable straps for a snug, comfortable fit. The straps should be set so the bra band is parallel to the floor and provides the majority of the support.

  • Coordinating Items: For a complete look, it can be paired with the Adella Kin full brief.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Hand wash only with a mild detergent in cool water. Avoid machine washing.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat and sunlight.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  • Ironing: Do not iron.
  • Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  • Fabric Care: Pay special attention to the lace and powermesh; avoid harsh scrubbing or stretching.
