FAQs
What makes the Philippa bra suitable for curvier busts?
The Philippa bra features a full cup design, classic underwires, and U-back wings, all engineered to provide enhanced support, lift, and shaping specifically for larger or curvier bust types.
Can I wear this bra every day?
Yes, the bra is designed for everyday wear with comfort and support in mind. The U-back wings and quality materials aim to provide lasting comfort.
What is the benefit of the non-padded cups?
Non-padded cups offer a natural shape and allow the underlying fabric's texture and design, such as the floral jacquard and lace, to be more prominent. They also provide a custom fit without adding bulk.
How do I know if I have the right size?
A well-fitting bra should have the band sitting snugly and level on your back, the cups fully enclosing the breast without spillage or gaping, and the underwire resting flat against your ribcage. Adjust the straps for comfort and support.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 mean?
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification means that the textiles used in the bra have been tested for harmful substances and are therefore safe for human health.
How should I wash this bra to ensure it lasts?
It is crucial to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and do not put it in the tumble dryer. Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight.
Is this bra suitable for sensitive skin?
The bra is OEKO-TEX® certified, indicating that the materials used are tested for harmful substances, which generally makes it suitable for sensitive skin. However, individual reactions can vary.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in or slipping
Adjust the strap length using the sliders. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as a loose band can cause straps to slip. The U-back design aims to minimize slipping, so check for proper fit.
Underwire discomfort
Ensure the underwire casing is positioned correctly around the breast tissue. If discomfort persists, the bra size or cup shape may not be suitable for your body. Consult sizing guides or a professional fitter.
Bra shape is not as expected
Ensure the cups are fully encompassing the breast tissue, and the underwire is seated correctly at the base of the breast. Make sure the bra is fastened on the loosest hook initially to allow for adjustment as the fabric stretches.
