Product Insights
The Gingham Textured Balconette from Simons, in stock at 49 CAD (exclusive price $29.95 saves cross-border fees), offers upward lift from underwire and seamed cups that stay stable when wet, with a horizontal edge and wide-set straps flattering A–D+ cups. The 3-position hook closure adjusts band fit as elastic wears. Textured gingham weave and lined back hide imperfections and remain opaque when wet. Removable padding requires trimming and anchor stitches to avoid bumps; removal reduces cup volume but structure from underwire and seams persists. Underwire care includes sealing ends with nail polish and reshaping; repair with tape or stitching. Hand wash cold and lay flat to dry to preserve fabric.
