Royce Lingerie & Bras

Your usual UK bra size is the best starting point, but a Royce bra can feel different from a wired style in the same size. Royce explains that the majority of a bra’s support should come from the underband; because its bras do not use wires, the band may feel more substantial or firmer than you expect. It should still sit level and secure without causing pain or restricting breathing.

Cup shape matters just as much. A three-part fuller-cup style such as Charlotte or Grace distributes the bust differently from a smooth moulded bra such as Maisie. The breast should be fully contained, the cup should not wrinkle or cut in, and the front of the bra should sit securely without the lower band rolling away from the body.

For post-surgery fitting, comfort, scar sensitivity, swelling and the position of any breast form can all affect the best size and style. If you have been advised to use a specialist bra after surgery, follow the timing and medical guidance given by your healthcare team; a bra fitting can then help with garment fit and pocket positioning.

• Choose a smooth moulded bra such as Maisie when you want an invisible cup beneath T-shirts and fine clothing.
• Choose a seamed full-cup style such as Charlotte when maximum containment, separation and fuller-cup support matter most.
• Choose a high-cotton style such as Grace when softness, breathability and an unpadded cup are priorities.
• Choose Comfi-Bra when you want a soft front-fastening option that is easier to put on and take off.
• Choose a pocketed Royce style when you need a bra capable of holding a breast form; check the individual product because pocketing varies by style.
• Choose Impact Free or Aerocool when you want wirefree support for exercise, matching the support level to the activity.

Royce chooses fibres according to the job of each bra. Cotton features heavily in comfort and care styles because it is breathable and soft against the skin. Modal appears in smooth styles such as Maisie for an especially soft hand feel, while polyamide, polyester and elastane add strength, stretch, support and recovery. Technical sports styles use more performance-focused synthetic fabrics to manage movement and moisture.

Composition can vary even within the same named collection or colour update, so the individual product label is the most reliable guide. This is especially important for long-running ranges such as Maisie and Charlotte, where current versions do not always use exactly the same fibre percentages.

Royce states that its garments can generally be hand washed or machine washed on a cool 30°C delicate cycle. Fasten hooks, use a lingerie bag for machine washing and separate colours. Allow bras to dry naturally and avoid tumble dryers, radiators and strong direct sunlight, which can damage elastic fibres and moulded components.

We stock Soak lingerie wash for gentle hand washing when you want to minimise agitation and help protect elastic, padding and delicate finishes.
