Our bralettes are 100% made in the USA. Our concealing petals are fabricated in New York and our bras are knitted, sewn and dyed in California.

• The bralette is made in the USA, in small batch production, and we incur high labor costs to assemble it.
• Our concealing petals are cut by hand, one by one, and then sent to our manufacturer to be heat sealed into the cups, one by one.
• In other words, it's is not the box store bralette that's mass produced overseas. There is literally, no comparision.

• It means that the bralette is knitted in one, continuous piece without the use of without seams. Many bras are "cut and sew", made from a pattern and the parts and the structure is sewn together.

• It means that there is no back clasp or additional hardware poke or jab you. Pull it over your head, get dressed and walk out the door.

The Elli Bralette is made of a superior grade Nylon / Spandex blend (92/8). Think bralette meets sports bra, if you will. It's soft and stretchy with "gentle hugging" support so it's not too tight, just right.

The rings and slides (on adjustable straps) are made of smooth alloy, which is nickel and lead free.

If you’re accustomed to molded cup t-shirt bras, you may find the Elli to be flattening by comparison. Interestingly enough, The Elli Bralette has been reported to provide cleavage. To see it in action, check out this Instagram Video of Non Disclosure Apparel founder, Becky Connelly (5′-9″, 135lbs, 34B, Elli Bralette Size: M).

If wearing a super tight t-shirt, the outline of the concealing petal might be faintly visible. The concealing petal is invisible under most t-shirts and tops. We wear it every day under every thing.

Like any bra, the Elli Bralette is not perfect (although, our customers may beg to differ). If you're a comfy t-shirt kinda girl, this bra will be perfect for you. 

If you think you've ordered the correct size and it looks like it should fit, wear if for a couple of days. The bra is tighter in it's new state and will become more supple with wear.

If it's way too tight and starting to piss you off, it's probably too small. The Elli Bralette is meant to feel like not wearing a bra so 'too tight' is defeating this end.  We are happy to exchange it for the next size up if available - it's quick and painless. Contact us to get this started for you.

Reach inside the cup and adjust your breast so that your nipple is centered under the concealing petal. You can also loosen or tighten the straps to adjust the placement. The Elli Bralette is stretchy so moving the cup back and forth or up and down, so that your nipple is centered under the concealer, will work too.

The bralettes have been lying flat and stacked in inventory. Often times, this causes the concealer to appear "flat" at first glance. Do not fret, you can manipulate it back into a convex shape. 

To do this, while wearing the bra, reach inside the lining and gently press the concealing petal outwards with your thumb. Simultaneously, use your fingers to smooth the edges of the petal on the outer, ribbed side. 

At any point during the life of the bra, you can repeat the above process and manipulate it to curve around your breast. 

Do not fret! The straps are sewn on by hand so if one of them becomes detached, we will replace the bralette. No questions asked.

The built-in concealer is permanently sealed inside the cups with a pneumatic heat press.  With normal tugging like pulling it over your head, washing, drying, stepping into it and pulling the cups down for nursing, etc., the concealing petal will not shift, move or detach. If you're really trying to rip the concealing petal from the lining of the cup (not sure why you would ever do that) it could possibly separate from the fabric. That said, we've never had that happen.

Try it on when your skin is 100% clean and dry (free deodorant, lotion, self-tanner, oils, or fragrance, etc.). Here's our Returns and Exchange policy.

Gently pull the bralette over your head OR step into it and carefully pull up to meet your breasts. Adjust the cups so that each nipple is in the center of concealing petal. Adjust the straps as needed.

"Hand Wash and Hang to Dry" is recommended method of washing the bralette. Why? Because repeated washing machine/dryer cycles will beat up integrity of the bra (you know this already).

If you must put in the washing machine, we recommend you use a mesh lingerie bag and wash in cold water, delicate cycle. Hang to Dry: with cups facing the floor, hang by looping the back band around a hook, hanger, door knob, tub faucet, ironing board, etc. This bra will be your new bestie, so you'll want to take care of it.

All of that said, many of our customers toss their bralettes into the washer and dryer with eveything else. Nothing really will happen to it - with the exception of (the color) getting dull or snagged on some sorta velcro situation in the mix. If you can't be bothered with hand washing it, you have our permission to machine wash and dry it over and over again.
