Boobs are an amazing asset, have you read our 101 names for boobs blog? We love all boobs, and we understand that sometimes you want to enhance them and sometimes you need the extra hand (not literally) to support the girls. That’s why our talented technician team have design Raphael.
Technical construction
Our amazing talented technician team have created this style for the ultimate wearability! No need for the girls to be hanging low anymore, we’ve got you back, and your boobs. Raphael has a fully functional internal hidden bra with an adjustable bra clasp, full support underwire and soft removable cups.
Raphael also has wide shoulder straps for extra support and comfort. These shoulder straps have our in built strap clip technology for support when wanting to cross over our straps or want more support through the bust. These strap clips hold the weight of your bust on the back of your collar bone rather than your neck to avoid that awful neck pain and rubbing.
She also has full body 360 degree powermesh for body sculpting and side panels with ruching. Here at Artesands we love how ruching hided and camouflages everything, its honestly like magic!
Raphael is our most modest coverage design with a lower leg line for good bottom coverage. The neckline is also higher along the bust with removable soft foam cups, allowing this style to be inserted with prosthesis and worn as a mastectomy option.
