Bra Underwires – Profile 19 | Plunge-Balconette

Bra underwires with a low center, medium side, wide fit, and open coverage are suitable for Plunge-Balconette bras where an open neckline area, a wider cup base, and a light fit without too much coverage are needed. This shape works well for bras with a deep or more horizontal neckline, sewn cups with underwire, and designs where it is important to keep the front open, lift the bust from below, and maintain comfortable side support.

The shape has a low center, medium side, wide fit, and open coverage. The low center keeps the front part of the bra more open and works well for deep necklines, while the medium side helps support the bust from the side without adding too much stiffness.

The wide fit is suitable for designs that need more space at the base of the cup and a more comfortable distribution of pressure. Open coverage makes the fit visually lighter and works well for Plunge-Balconette styles where the cup should stay open at the top, while still keeping shape, support, and a stable fit.

The underwires are made from Bekaert wire. Bekaert is a Belgian manufacturer of steel wire and protective coatings, whose materials are used in industries where consistent quality, precise shape, and material reliability are important.

The wire has double corrosion protection: galvanizing and PET plastic coating. This creates a smooth surface, reduces friction against the fabric, and helps keep the finished garment looking neat.

The ends of the underwires are covered with protective drop-shaped tips. They help protect the fabric from damage and reduce the risk of the underwire piercing the channel during wear or after washing.

Two wire options are available for order: flat and oval. Flat wire is suitable for most standard lingerie styles. Oval wire is chosen when a softer and more comfortable underwire is needed, especially for plus-size lingerie.
