Fabric & silhouette

Stretch fabric may feel forgiving, but it can also follow product edges closely. Test the dress in the positions you will actually use: standing, sitting and reaching. Choose Pop or Pop Up according to coverage before adjusting shape.

Choose by the dress opening

If your existing bra remains covered, Pop can sit inside its cups. For an open-back or strapless look, compare Pop Up with the actual fabric panels. The cups and clasp need to remain within the covered areas.

Check stretch without strain

Notice whether the dress pulls tightly across the cup edge or lifts at the hem. Extra volume from inserts changes fabric tension. If the outfit only looks right while you stand perfectly still, reconsider the fit or choose another styling combination.

Your fitting checklist

  1. Sit in the dress
  2. Reach at a normal pace
  3. Check cup-edge tension

Use the VELUNA size guide for the relevant product. Follow the instructions supplied with your product.

A common question

Does stretchy fabric make every bra fit work?

No. Stretch does not remove the need for adequate coverage and comfortable cup space.
