1. Q. Do I need a special bra? How do the bra straps fit? .
A. Yes, you need a bra that has removable bra straps. We have a wonderful convertible bra that can be used with all the bra straps.
2. Q. Which bra straps should I select? Should all straps that show be invisible?
A. Your outfit is an expression, or a reflection of your style and bra straps are no exception. The style of the outfit will help guide you in your decision making. In a more stylish or formal setting straps that are cIear, rhinestones or more flashy may suit you, whereas outfits that are flirty or used in causal wear look great with any of the straps.
3. Q. What is the right color?
A. For a conservative look, simply match the color of the straps to the color of your top. For a more colorful look, match the strap color to some other part of your outfit, such as pants, skirt, etc. You can also use clear bra straps with adornments such as rhinestones to enhance the beauty of a dress or gown.
(Have fun but remember the basic rules of fashion apply: stay away from too many colors at once. Wearing red bra straps with a green top and yellow pants may get you noticed, but it won't be for your sense of fashion.)
4. Q. Is it OK if my straps are showing?
A. It's fair to say that wearing a white bra with worn out straps under a black tank top certainly will not win you any fashion awards. Fortunately, there are a number of styles and colors to match any top, or you can create a more distinctive look by wearing a top with complimentary colored straps. For example, if you wear a black tank top with red pants, wearing red fabric bra straps or clear bra straps with red beads might be just the thing to tie the entire outfit together.
5. Q. What should I wear with a halter top?
A. Typically, the best answer is to wear a strapless bra to provide the cleanest look. At times, though, your strapless bra may not look very attractive, or you may need more support. In these cases, a convertible bra with one clear bra strap or a matching color bra strap worn around the neck is the best solution.
6. Q. How do I place the straps on my bra?
A. For a bra with interchangeable straps, unhook your old straps, connect your new straps, and you're done.
--For a bra without interchangeable straps, you'll need to do a little work first. Cut each strap at both ends, leaving enough to fold over and sew to the bra, which creates a fabric hook. Then, connect your new straps using the fabric hooks that you just created. Make sure that you use enough thread to securely hold the hook in place, as the bra strap will put a lot of stress on it during regular use.
7. Q. Do these bra straps break, and are they elastic?
A. All of our straps are made from high quality materials that resist tearing and breaking, and we use high test metal hooks that don't break like plastic hooks do. When you're ready to wash them, just use your regular detergent or even hand soap and rinse. Your bra straps will be clean and ready to wear. As for the stretchiness, most of our bra straps are made out of elastic materials that support the weight and give comfort at the same time.
8. Q. Do the bra straps come in different sizes?
A. No, All the bra straps are fully adjustable to accommodate just about any size.
