FAQs

What does 'non-padded' mean for this bra?

Non-padded means the bra cups do not have any extra foam or padding inserted. It relies on the fabric and construction, along with underwire, to provide shape and support, offering a more natural feel and appearance.

Is the floral lace scratchy?

The bra is made with bold floral lace designed to hug curves. While lace can have texture, it is generally crafted for comfort. Hand washing and proper care can help maintain the softness of the lace.

What is the best way to wash this bra?

It is recommended to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, tumble drying, ironing, or dry cleaning to preserve the fabric and construction.

What does 'plunge' style mean?

A plunge bra has cups that are cut lower and angled inwards, creating a deep V-neckline. This style is ideal for low-cut tops and dresses.

How do I know if I have the right band size?

The band should sit snugly and level on your back. You should be able to fit two fingers comfortably between the band and your body. The band provides most of the bra's support.

Can this bra be worn under t-shirts?

Yes, the non-padded design and smooth lace can work well under t-shirts, especially those with a V-neckline that complements the plunge style. For very form-fitting t-shirts, the lace texture might be subtly visible.

What are the brushed gold tabs for?

The brushed gold tabs at the apex points are decorative elements, adding a touch of subtle embellishment to the bra's design.

Troubleshooting

Bra band rides up

Ensure the bra band is adjusted to the correct hook setting. If it continues to ride up, the band may be too loose, and a different size might be needed.

Straps dig into shoulders

Adjust the shoulder straps to a looser setting. Make sure the bra band is providing the primary support, not just the straps.

Underwire discomfort

Verify that the cup size and band size are correct. Underwire should sit smoothly around the breast tissue. If irritation persists, the bra may not be the correct fit.

Lace appears through thin fabric

While designed to be discreet, very sheer or thin fabrics might show lace texture. Consider wearing with slightly thicker materials or garments with a lining.
