FAQs

What is the primary material of the Marseille Wired Basque?

The primary material is polyester, chosen for its smooth finish and elegant drape, complemented by intricate embroidery.

Can this basque be worn as outerwear?

Yes, the design intentionally blurs the lines between lingerie and ready-to-wear, making it suitable for styling as a top layer with appropriate outfits.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart. Measuring your bust, underbust, and waist is recommended for accuracy. The model number '36C' indicates the band and cup size.

Is the embroidery durable?

The embroidery is designed to be intricate and eye-catching. While generally durable with proper care, it is a delicate feature that requires gentle handling to prevent snags or damage.

What type of support does the underwire provide?

The underwire provides shaping and lift to the bust, contributing to a well-defined silhouette.

How should I clean the basque to maintain its quality?

It is recommended to hand wash the basque in cool water with a mild detergent and lay it flat to dry. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying.

Are the suspender straps removable?

The product description mentions adjustable suspender straps, implying they are attached but can be adjusted for length. Removability is not specified, but they are typically integrated into basque designs.

Troubleshooting

Straps not staying in place

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly. If slipping persists, check for wear on the strap material or clasps. Ensure the garment is the correct size for your body.

Embroidery snagged or damaged

Carefully try to smooth out any snags with a fine-tipped tweezers. If significantly damaged, professional repair may be needed. Follow care instructions strictly to prevent future damage.

Underwire feels uncomfortable

Verify that the basque is the correct size and fit. An ill-fitting garment can cause discomfort. Ensure the underwire casing is intact and not twisted.

Garment loses shape after washing

Ensure you are following the hand-wash and lay-flat-to-dry instructions precisely. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment during washing and drying.
