Product Information

Full details

The Fantasie Lucia Side Support Bra is designed for women seeking a blend of romantic aesthetics and reliable support, particularly those with larger cup sizes. Its key benefit lies in the three-piece cup construction with side support, offering excellent uplift and forward projection for a flattering silhouette. A potential caveat for some users might be the hand-wash-only care instruction, requiring a bit more attention than machine-washable garments. This bra features a beautiful, in-house designed floral print, wide wiring for comfort, a lined top cup for added support, and delicate lace trim.

FAQs

How do I determine my correct size?

Measuring your band size and cup size accurately is crucial. For band size, measure around your rib cage directly under your bust. For cup size, measure around the fullest part of your bust. It's often recommended to get measured professionally for the best fit, especially for fuller bust styles like this one.

What is the main benefit of the side support feature?

The side support panel is designed to provide additional uplift and help project the bust forward, creating a smoother, more rounded shape and preventing outward breast tissue. This can be particularly beneficial for those who experience side-bulge.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra is strictly hand wash only. Machine washing, especially with heat or agitation, can damage the delicate fabrics, lace, underwire, and adjustable components.

What does 'wide wired' mean?

'Wide wired' refers to underwires that are shaped and positioned to offer a broader base of support, often extending further around the cup to provide better lift and comfort, especially for larger cup sizes.

What material is the bra made of?

The Top Cup Lining & Cup are made of 100% Polyester. The Wing is made of 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane.

Does the floral pattern come in other colours?

The product information indicates that this specific listing is for a floral pattern in white and blue colour families. However, Fantasie may offer other colourways or patterns in the Lucia range.

How many hooks does the fastening have?

The bra features a 2-hook fastening for sizes D-G cups and a 3-hook fastening for sizes GG-J cups.

Troubleshooting

Underwire poking out

This can occur if the bra is over-stretched or if the casing is damaged. Gently try to reposition the underwire. If the casing is torn, it may be time to replace the bra.

Straps digging in

Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly and not overtightened. The bra should be supported by the band, not solely by the straps. Check if the cup size or band size is correct.

Band riding up

The band might be too loose. Ensure the band fits snugly on the loosest hook when new, allowing for adjustment as it stretches. The bra should sit parallel to the floor.

Bra uncomfortable after washing

Ensure you are following the hand wash only and air dry instructions carefully. Damage from incorrect washing, especially tumble drying, can affect comfort.
