FAQs

What does UK sizing mean for this bra?

UK sizing refers to the standard bra sizing used in the United Kingdom. For example, a 30E in UK sizing has a specific band measurement (30 inches) and cup volume (E).

How do I know if I'm wearing the correct size?

A correctly fitting bra should have the band sitting parallel to the floor, the cups fully enclosing the breast without spillage, and the straps should stay in place without digging in. You should be able to slide one finger comfortably under the band.

Can I wear this bra for everyday activities?

Yes, the Panache Clara Full Cup Underwire Bra is designed for supportive everyday wear, offering comfort and shape throughout the day.

Is the lace scratchy?

The lace is designed to be smooth and comfortable against the skin. However, individual sensitivity can vary. The smooth stretch lace upper cup aims to minimize irritation.

What other colors are available for the Clara bra?

The Clara bra is available in other colors, including Black and Pink, with different product codes for each variation.

Where can I buy the matching briefs?

The matching Panache Clara High Waist Brief (style 7254) is sold separately and can be found through authorized Panache retailers or online stores.

How often should I replace my bras?

Bras typically last between 6-12 months with regular wear and proper care, depending on frequency of use and washing habits. Signs it's time for replacement include stretched bands, worn-out elastic, or loss of support.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping off shoulders

Ensure straps are adjusted correctly for your body. If slippage persists, check that the bra band is sitting snugly and level. Consider the fit of the cup; if the cup is too large, it can cause straps to loosen.

Underwire digging in

This may indicate an incorrect cup size or band size. Ensure the underwire channels lie flat against the body and fully encase the breast tissue. Try a different size or style if discomfort continues.

Band riding up

The band needs to be snug and parallel to the floor. If it's riding up, the band is likely too loose. Try a smaller band size. Ensure you are fastening the bra on the loosest hook initially, moving to tighter hooks as the bra stretches over time.

Breasts spilling out of the top

This suggests the cup size may be too small or shallow. Ensure your entire breast is contained within the cup. Try a larger cup size, potentially in a different style if the full cup design isn't suiting your shape.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Matching briefs are sold separately, requiring an additional purchase for a set.

  • Underwire bras may not be suitable for all-day lounging or sleeping.
  • Lace detailing might be visible under very thin or clingy fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a bra, the Panache Clara requires no assembly. Proper setup involves selecting the correct size (30E in this case) and adjusting the straps for a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure the band sits level around your torso and the cups fully enclose the breast tissue.

Compatibility: This bra is designed for women seeking full cup support and a rounded shape. It is compatible with a wide range of apparel, offering a smooth profile under most clothing types. It is available in UK sizing.

Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of your bra:

  1. Hand Wash: Gently hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent.
  2. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse with cool water until all soap is removed.
  3. Do Not Wring: Gently squeeze out excess water; do not twist or wring.
  4. Dry Flat: Reshape the bra and lay it flat to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
  5. Avoid Machine Washing/Drying: Machine cycles and heat can damage delicate fabrics and elastic.
