Bra Fasteners
Understanding Bra Back Fasteners
Description
Bra back fasteners come in a range of sizes, with the SIZE referring to the vertical height of the fastener when worn.
Each fastener set includes two parts:
Hook side
Eye side
The wider the fastener, the more sets of hooks and eyes it will contain, offering greater support and stability.
Most fasteners also include an adjustment option so you can tighten or loosen the fit of your bra. This adjustment is usually between 1–3 rows of eyes, though occasionally we source fasteners with 4 rows (less common).
Product variations
The product image is normally of the exact item, though minor variations may occur (e.g., the hook side may or may not arrive pre-folded). If flat, simply fold the hook piece over the edge of the fabric and stitch as usual.
Due to fabric stretch and manufacturing differences, there may be a 1–2mm discrepancy in width. This is not considered a fault. If exact measurement is critical, please email us and we will happily check before you order.
Mini Tutorial: How to Attach a Bra Back Fastener
Prepare your bra band – ensure the edges are finished or securely enclosed.
Place the eye piece on the left band end (as worn), right side facing up. Align the raw edge inside the fold or fabric channel. Stitch securely with a straight or zig-zag stitch.
Attach the hook piece on the right band end (as worn), folding it over the fabric edge if needed. Again, stitch securely.
Check alignment – hooks should meet eyes without twisting.
Finish neatly by sewing a reinforcing row of stitches if desired.
Your bra is now ready to fasten securely!
