Tips to Achieving Separation in a Wireless Bra!

How to get the center gore of a wireless bra to “tack”. While wireless bras do NOT need to tack to provide support, one may like the separation and “feel” of the center gore touching the chest. This post is for those who are interested in investing additional time to get that center gore to touch the chest wall.

Sizing Suggestions for the Lanai Wireless Pattern

Our wirefree bra patterns uses a combination of measurements such as bottom cup depth (BCD) AND horizontal hemisphere (HH) to determine size - much like our wired patterns. More measurements = fewer muslins!
