FAQs
Does this bra offer push-up support?
No, this is a minimizer bra. It is designed to provide lift and support while reducing the projection of the bust rather than pushing it up or together.
Can I put this in the washing machine on a delicate cycle?
The manufacturer strongly recommends hand washing only to protect the underwires and the shape-retaining properties of the heat-moulded cups.
What is the OEKO-TEX certification?
It is an international label certifying that the textile has been tested for harmful substances, ensuring it is safe for direct contact with human skin.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, the polyamide-elastane blend is designed for comfort, and the straps are specifically lined with cotton to manage moisture and prevent irritation.
Will this bra work under tight-fitting silk shirts?
Yes, the smooth, non-padded design is specifically crafted to minimize visible lines and provide a clean silhouette under delicate fabrics.
What should I do if the underwire feels uncomfortable?
Check your size. Often, underwire discomfort is a sign that the cup size is slightly too small, causing the wire to press against sensitive tissue rather than resting against the ribcage.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging into shoulders
Ensure the back band is firm enough to support the weight; if the band is too loose, the straps take too much pressure. Adjust the straps for a snug, non-restrictive fit.
Visible lines under clothing
Ensure you are wearing the correct band size. If the bra cups are bulging, the bra may be too small, causing the edges to show through fabric.
Loss of support over time
Elastic fibers degrade with body oils and sweat. Regular hand washing as per instructions is essential to snap the fibers back into shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Triumph Essential Minimizer, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Fitting: Adjust the back closure and shoulder straps upon first wear to ensure the band sits level across your back and the straps provide firm support without tension.
- Washing: This garment must be hand-washed. Do not use a machine, as the agitation can damage the delicate underwires and the structure of the heat-moulded cups.
- Drying: Never tumble dry or iron this bra. Lay it flat or hang it to air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve the elasticity of the polyamide-elastane blend.
- Bleaching: Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals, as these will degrade the fiber structure and impact the coloration.
