FAQs
What makes this bra 'balcony' style?
A balcony bra, also known as a balconette bra, features cups that are cut horizontally, creating a more 'shelf-like' or 'balcony' effect. It offers a flattering lift and is designed to be visible and attractive above lower necklines.
Are the moulded cups padded?
Yes, the description states that the moulded cups are padded, providing comfort and contributing to a smooth, rounded silhouette.
How do I find the correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which typically involves measuring your underbust (for band size) and bust circumference (for cup size). Professional fitting at a lingerie store is also recommended.
Can I wear this bra with very tight tops?
Yes, the seamless design is intended to provide an invisible look under fitted clothing, including tight tops and dresses.
What is the benefit of underwiring?
Underwiring provides essential support, helps lift the bust, and maintains the bra's shape for a comfortable and secure fit throughout the day.
What type of detergent should I use for washing?
It is best to use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicates or lingerie. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
Does this bra come with matching underwear?
The product description mentions pairing it with matching briefs from the Idol range for a coordinated set, suggesting they are available separately.
Troubleshooting
Bra straps digging in
Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, not too low.
Underwire discomfort
Check that the bra size is correct, particularly the band size. The underwire should sit snugly around the breast tissue, not digging into it. Ensure the bra hasn't been damaged during washing.
Visible lines under clothing
While designed for seamlessness, ensure clothing fit is not excessively tight. Check that the bra seams are lying flat against the body.
Bra losing shape
Ensure correct washing and drying methods are followed. Avoid stretching the bra during drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This product is a bra, so 'setup' involves selecting the correct size and adjusting the straps and band for a secure, comfortable fit. The bra is designed to be compatible with most standard clothing types, particularly those where a smooth silhouette is desired.
Care Instructions:
- Hand wash is recommended using a mild detergent in cool or lukewarm water.

- Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
