How to Measure:
- Underbust: Measure around your rib cage directly under your bust, keeping the tape measure snug and level.
- Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape measure level and not too tight.
Compare your measurements to the chart to find your recommended size.
Operating: Wearing Instructions
To ensure maximum comfort and support from your Bali One Smooth U Underwire Bra, follow these steps:
- Positioning: Lean forward slightly and scoop your breasts into the cups, ensuring the underwire sits flat against your rib cage, directly under your breast tissue.
- Fastening: Fasten the hooks and eyes at the back. Start with the loosest setting, as the bra will stretch slightly over time.
- Adjusting Straps: Adjust the shoulder straps so they are snug but not digging into your shoulders. The straps should provide support without taking all the weight.
- Check Fit: The center gore (the fabric between the cups) should lie flat against your sternum. The back band should be level and not ride up.
Maintenance: Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the shape of your Bali One Smooth U Underwire Bra. This bra is made from Nylon/spandex/poly/cotton fabric.
- Washing: Hand wash only. Use mild detergent in cool water.
- Drying: Do not wring or twist. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat or hang to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, as this can damage elastic and fabric.
- Storage: Store bras flat or folded in half to prevent cup distortion.
- Avoid: Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with the fit or comfort of your bra, consider the following:
- Cups Gaping or Wrinkling: The cup size may be too large. Try a smaller cup size.
- Cups Overflowing: The cup size may be too small. Try a larger cup size.
- Band Riding Up at the Back: The band size may be too large. Try a smaller band size, or tighten the band to a firmer hook setting.
- Underwire Digging In: The cup size may be too small, or the underwire is not sitting correctly under the breast tissue. Ensure proper positioning as described in the 'Wearing Instructions'.
- Straps Slipping: Adjust the straps to be tighter. If they continue to slip, the band may be too loose, or the bra style may not be ideal for your shoulder shape. The Comfort-U Back design is intended to minimize this issue.
