FAQs

How do I determine my correct Fantasie Talia bra size?

Measure your band size by wrapping a soft tape measure around your ribcage directly under your bust. Measure your cup size by loosely measuring around the fullest part of your bust. Use these measurements with Fantasie's official sizing chart, or consult a professional bra fitter for the most accurate results. Remember that the hook fastening varies based on cup size (2 hooks for D-G, 3 hooks for GG-J).

What is the main difference between the 2-hook and 3-hook fastening?

The 2-hook fastening is used on smaller cup sizes (D-G) to provide adequate support. The 3-hook fastening is used on larger cup sizes (GG-J) to offer increased stability, support, and a wider, more comfortable back band.

Can I wear this bra for sports or intense activity?

No, the Fantasie Talia Full Cup Bra is designed for fashion and everyday support, not high-impact activities. For sports, a dedicated sports bra is recommended to provide the necessary compression and support.

How should I care for the delicate embroidery on the top cup?

Hand wash gently with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting the embroidered areas. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat.

What does 'forward projection' mean in relation to this bra?

Forward projection refers to the bra's ability to shape the bust so it points forward rather than to the sides. This creates a slimmer appearance and a more rounded, natural-looking silhouette under clothing.

Is the polyester material breathable?

Polyester is not as breathable as natural fibers like cotton. However, the construction of this bra, with its specific cup design and potential for top cup lining in larger sizes, aims to balance support and comfort for everyday wear.

What other sizes and colors are available in the Talia collection?

The Talia collection is available in various band and cup sizes. While the specific product description mentions a brown/animal print, other colorways might be available depending on the season and retailer. Please check available listings for the full range.

Troubleshooting

Bra band is riding up

Ensure the band is on the loosest hook that fits snugly. If it still rides up, the band may be too large, and a smaller band size might be needed. The back band should be parallel to the ground.

Straps are digging into shoulders

Loosen the shoulder straps. The majority of the support should come from the band, not the straps. If loosening doesn't help, ensure you have the correct band size.

Breast tissue is spilling out of the cups (top or sides)

Check that you are correctly scooping all breast tissue into the cups, including from under the arms and the sides. If spillage persists, you may need to try a larger cup size or a different bra style.

Underwire is uncomfortable or poking

Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the bra's natural breast pocket, lying flat against the rib cage. If discomfort continues, the wire channel might be too narrow for your shape, suggesting a different style or size.
