Product Information
Full details
This Berlei Beauty Stripe Underwired Minimiser Bra is designed for adult females seeking to reduce the appearance of their bust by up to one size while enjoying comfortable, smooth support. Its key benefit lies in its ability to offer a visually slimmer profile under clothing, thanks to its smooth, moulded cups and minimiser design. A potential consideration is that it is non-padded, which may not be suitable for those seeking added volume or shape. The bra features bold stripe mesh detail, wide padded front straps, and a super-soft lining for enhanced comfort.

FAQs
What does a minimiser bra do?
A minimiser bra is designed to redistribute breast tissue to reduce the overall appearance of the bust size by up to one cup size, creating a smoother silhouette under clothing without flattening the bust excessively.
Is this bra padded?
No, this is a non-padded bra. It features smooth, moulded cups for a seamless finish.
How should I wash this bra?
The Berlei Beauty Stripe Underwired Minimiser Bra should be hand washed only with a mild detergent in cool water. Do not tumble dry.
Can I wear this bra under tight clothing?
Yes, the smooth, moulded cups are designed to be invisible under clothing, making it ideal for wearing under fitted tops and blouses.
What is the material composition?
The material content is 62% Polyamide, 20% Elastane, and 18% Polyester, exclusive of trims.
Are the straps adjustable?
Yes, the bra features adjustable straps to ensure a comfortable and secure fit.
What is the main benefit of the wide front straps?
The wide padded front straps help to distribute weight evenly across the shoulders, providing supreme comfort and reducing pressure points.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels uncomfortable or straps dig in.
Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is fitted correctly - it should be snug but not too tight. Check that the cups are sitting flat against the body.
Visible lines under clothing.
Ensure the moulded cups are sitting smoothly and not creased. Check that the bra band and straps are positioned correctly and not digging in.
Underwire discomfort.
Verify the correct size and cup fit. If the underwire is poking, it may indicate an improper fit or that the bra has reached the end of its lifespan.
Reduced minimisation effect.
Ensure the bra is the correct size and that the cups are fully encompassing the breast tissue. The minimiser effect is achieved through the design and fit, not compression.
