ELECTRA is the sports bra designed for those who want more pronounced support without sacrificing the elegance of a clean piece. Its 280GSM Galaya Sculpt™ knit, denser than our standard fabric, offers sculpting compression that shapes the chest and rib cage without underwire. Deep neckline, detailed back, flat seams: ELECTRA can be worn from the Pilates mat to a business lunch, under a blazer or on its own as a top, seamlessly.

Galaya Sculpt Fabric
Galaya Sculpt™ is our signature fabric, here in its dense 280GSM version: a technical four-way stretch jersey with a peach-skin feel, featuring a higher polyamide content (88%) that enhances support and sculpting sensation. Its gentle but firm compression shapes the chest without restricting breathing, its moisture-wicking remains effective during intense sessions, and its increased weight ensures total opacity and superior durability in all positions.
- Composition: 88% POLYAMIDE 12% SPANDEX
- Weight: 280GSM (optimal support & opacity)
- Signature fabric: Galaya Sculpt™ — peach-skin feel, four-way stretch, moisture-wicking
- OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified (absence of harmful substances)
- BSCI social audit (verified factory working conditions)
Fit & Sizing
On the model — The model is 1.75 m tall, B cup, and wears a size S.
Sizing advice — True to size. For a more pronounced sculpting effect, size down; for extended respiratory comfort during long classes (1h30+), size up. The rib cage (underbust measurement) remains the reference measurement.
Care
- Machine wash at 30°C maximum, delicate cycle
- Mild detergent — never use fabric softener (it clogs technical fibers)
- Air dry — never tumble dry
- No dry cleaning or bleach
The 280GSM is a robust fabric: it perfectly withstands frequent washes on a delicate cycle at 30°C. Expect two to four years of regular use without loss of compression or opacity with this routine.

Frequently Asked Questions
What level of support does ELECTRA offer?
Medium-high impact thanks to the dense 280GSM knit, wide underbust band, and engineered compression. Suitable for intense Pilates, Lagree, power yoga, weight training, and moderate-to-high intensity fitness. The sculpting compression of the 88% polyamide knit provides better stability than a standard fabric. For long-distance running or repetitive jumping (HIIT to plyo), a dedicated high-impact bra with a high neckline and criss-cross straps is still recommended.
What's the difference between this and the SAIPH bra?
The SAIPH is made of Galaya Sculpt 220GSM (78/22), offering medium flexible support, more breathable and summery, ideal for everyday wear. ELECTRA is 280GSM (88/12), offering medium-high support with more pronounced sculpting compression and superior long-term durability. ELECTRA is for demanding practices or a pronounced sculpted underbust effect; SAIPH is for gentle yoga, mat Pilates, and daily wear. Both are complementary in a complete wardrobe.
Is it suitable for larger busts?
The 280GSM offers more pronounced support than our standard fabric, so yes, up to C/D cup for moderate activity. Beyond that (D+), we recommend layering with a criss-cross bra for dynamic movements such as fast vinyasa or intense Lagree. The wide underbust band (5 cm) provides better stability than a 220GSM model and limits lateral bounce during transitions and quick movements.
Is the deep neckline too revealing?
The neckline is designed to reveal the line of the neck and cleavage, but without spillage during movement. For A-B cups, the cleavage is elegant and pronounced; for C+ cups, it remains contained thanks to the calibrated depth (14.5 to 16.5 cm depending on size). For higher coverage, consider the MAIA bra (round neckline) or SIRIUS (standard neckline).
How do I know if my size is correct?
The underbust band should be horizontal at the back, firm without digging into the skin. You should be able to slide a flat finger underneath without excessive tension. The bust should be contained within the cups, without vertical spillage (quadruple boob effect) or horizontal gaps. If you have difficulty breathing after 5 minutes or if you see a deep red mark within the first 5 minutes, the size is too small — go up one size.
Can it be worn alone under a jacket?
Yes — this is a key use we promote. The sculpted neckline, detailed back, and flat seams make it a versatile athleisure piece for everyday wear: ELECTRA + black blazer + jeans = editorial silhouette, ELECTRA + open white shirt = crisp summer outing. The 280GSM remains opaque in direct light, unlike lighter knits. Black, Navy Blue, and Bordeaux colors work particularly well for lifestyle wear.
How do I wash a sports bra to make it last?
Machine wash at maximum 30°C inside out, in a mesh bag, on a delicate cycle. No fabric softener — it degrades technical fibers and compromises compression. Dry flat or hanging, never tumble dry or on a radiator. Avoid leaving it damp and balled up in your gym bag. By following this protocol, compression and color will last two to four years with regular use (3 to 4 sessions per week).
Does it leave marks on the skin after a workout?
Not if the size is correct. The wide, flat underbust band distributes pressure without digging in, the straps are calibrated not to cut into the shoulder, and the finishes are tag-free. If you see deep red marks after an hour of class, your size is too small — the compression is too strong on the rib cage. Go up one size while maintaining the same bust measurement.
Is the fabric certified free of harmful substances?
Yes. Galaya Sculpt 280GSM is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, which excludes over 350 concerning chemical substances (heavy metals, formaldehyde, phthalates, azo dyes, alkylphenols). Our weaving supplier is also BSCI audited, guaranteeing verified working conditions in the factory (wages, hours, safety, union rights, absence of forced labor).
What's the difference between this and a Lululemon Energy Long Line?
The Energy Long Line is effective but not very compressive, and its Luxtreme fabric remains fluid and lightweight. ELECTRA uses a denser knit (280GSM vs. approximately 230 for Luxtreme) and more pronounced sculpting compression at the underbust band. The support is comparable, but ELECTRA offers a sculpted underbust effect and superior opacity, plus OEKO-TEX certification which is absent from the Lululemon reference.
