FAQs
What materials is the basque made from?
The Sexy Lace Basque is primarily crafted from a Polyester blend, with the lace utilizing 50% recycled fibers and the mesh containing a minimum of 70% recycled yarns, contributing to a more sustainable design.
Are the bra cups padded?
Yes, the basque features padded cups for an uplifted and rounded shape. It also includes mini removable pads for an optional push-up effect, especially beneficial for smaller bust sizes.
Can I wear this basque for everyday use?
While designed to be comfortable enough for every day, its elegant and seductive style makes it perfect for special occasions or when you desire an added boost of confidence. The improved fit aims for comfort during wear.
How do I attach stockings?
The basque comes with integrated suspender straps. Simply attach the reinforced top band of your stockings to these clips for a complete and alluring lingerie look.
How should I wash this basque?
To maintain its delicate lace and fabric, hand washing in cool water with a gentle detergent is highly recommended. Do not bleach, tumble dry, iron, or dry clean. Lay flat to air dry.
Is this basque available in other sizes or colors?
This specific product is size 18 and black. However, the Ann Summers Sexy Lace collection often includes various sizes and sometimes other colors. Please check product listings for the full range of available variants.
What kind of support does the basque offer?
It offers significant support through underwired cups and a padded design, providing lift and shaping for the bust. The updated fit ensures a secure and comfortable feel throughout the garment.
Troubleshooting
Basque feels uncomfortable or too tight/loose.
Check the hook and eye closure at the back; adjust to a tighter or looser setting. Ensure shoulder straps are properly adjusted for lift without digging in. If discomfort persists, re-check your size against the Ann Summers size guide for optimal fit.
Cups don't provide desired uplift or shape.
Adjust shoulder strap length to increase lift. For smaller busts, ensure the mini removable pads are correctly inserted for an enhanced push-up effect. Make sure the underwire sits flat against your rib cage and isn't riding up.
Stockings don't stay attached to suspender straps.
Ensure stockings have appropriate reinforced tops designed for suspender attachment. Securely fasten the suspender clips to the stocking band, checking that they are fully closed and not damaged. Replace any worn or stretched stockings.
