How to wear

The way you wear it varies depending on the type of bra top.

The type that fits wellFrom belowThat's the right answer! It's easy to put on. Also, since the bust fits easily into the cup, you can expect the effect of naturally lifting the bust! Put both legs through the bra and put it on from the bottom, then adjust the position by putting your bust into the cup. Finally, adjust the length of the straps.

If you wear loose-fitting insert-cup bras, you can wear them like regular underwear and then adjust the position by tucking your bust into the cup later.

Washing Instructions

Rather than washing the bra top in the washing machine as is,Add to the InternetThis will help the cup last longer and keep its shape better.

When drying,Fold it in half and hang it on the straight part of the hanger.This prevents the straps from stretching and the cups from collapsing.

Removable pads can be removed from the bra top.Remove and wash by handIf you use a washing machine, be sure toUse the InternetThe pad may become deformed if it is dried without being adjusted to its shape, so be sure to adjust the shape promptly after washing and hang it out to dry.

How to fold

When folding your bra top, it's important to be careful not to crush the cups.

1.Place the bra top cup-side down.
2.Fold the bottom hem down so that it is directly underneath the cup, then fold the straps and shoulder pieces in towards the inside of the cup.
3.Fold the cup side over so that it is folded in thirds.

Cotton Trivia

Cotton inner layer
Why is it a "commonly used" material?

Excellent heat retention

Cotton is a material with excellent heat retention. Cotton fibers are hollow, so they do not easily transmit or retain heat.

Excellent moisture absorption

Cotton is highly absorbent and breathable, so even when you sweat, your skin doesn't get stuffy, making it comfortable to wear.

Feels good on the skin and causes little irritation to the skin

Cotton is a material that feels good on the skin and is less irritating to the skin. This is because the fiber itself is softer than synthetic fibers and the ends of the fibers are not sharp. It can be worn comfortably even by people who have dry skin and are prone to itching or rashes.

The difference between organic cotton and regular cotton

Organic cotton is cotton that is grown and produced without relying on chemical fertilizers or pesticides, making use of the natural blessings of the sun, water, and earth. To be called organic cotton, it must meet the following standards set by a third-party organization and be certified as organic.

1.Grown on a certain farm without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers for more than three years

2.The health and environmental impacts of using chemicals are kept to a minimum.

3.Consideration is given to the health and safety of workers

4.Prohibition of child labor

Does it have to be 100% cotton?
What are the benefits of blending with chemical fibers?

As mentioned above, cotton is a material that is often used for innerwear. However, its disadvantages include its poor elasticity, which makes it difficult to make clothes that fit well, and its slow drying.

To compensate for these disadvantages, cotton is sometimes blended with polyurethane, which has good elasticity, or polyester, which has excellent quick-drying properties. This is why 100% cotton is less common when a tight-fitting bra top is required.

If you have physical constitution that makes it difficult for you to wear synthetic fibers, you may be able to increase your comfort by combining synthetic fibers with cotton. Choose the material that best suits your constitution, preferences, and intended use.
