Product Information

Full details

The Curvy Kate Strawberry Crush Balcony Bra is designed for adults seeking a blend of supportive uplift and feminine style. Featuring intricate floral embroidery and a lightweight, semi-sheer mesh construction, this bra offers a classic balcony shape that enhances natural curves with vertical cup darts for added lift. While it provides excellent structure and a flattering silhouette, those preferring full-coverage padding may find the non-padded, semi-sheer material a lighter alternative to traditional molded bras.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this bra padded?

No, this is a non-padded balcony style using structured mesh and cup darts for support.

Does the mesh provide full coverage?

The mesh is semi-sheer, meaning it is slightly transparent compared to solid, opaque fabrics.

Can I wear this under a square-neck top?

Yes, the straight-across neckline is specifically designed to sit well under square-neck outfits.

How should I wash this bra?

Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry.

What is the primary material used?

The bra is constructed from polyester, chosen for its durability and lightweight feel.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging into shoulders

Adjust the strap length using the sliders on the back and ensure the band is firm enough to support the weight of the bust.

Underwire feels uncomfortable

Ensure the center gore sits flat against your breastbone and the wires encircle your breast tissue completely without resting on it.

Fabric snagging

Avoid contact with rough surfaces and wash inside a mesh lingerie bag if absolutely necessary to use a machine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Curvy Kate Strawberry Crush, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Fitting: Always fasten on the loosest hook when new to allow for fabric relaxation over time.
  2. Washing: Hand wash in cool water using a gentle lingerie detergent. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the delicate floral embroidery and underwire.
  3. Drying: Lay flat to dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the elastic from breaking down.
  4. Storage: Store flat or hung by the center gore to keep the cups in their intended shape.

The bra features a standard hook-and-eye closure, utilizing 2 to 3 hooks depending on your specific band size, ensuring a secure fit tailored to the size of the garment.
