FAQs
What is the main benefit of the side support feature?
The side support panel is designed to provide extra uplift and forward projection, creating a smoother, more rounded shape and enhancing comfort by distributing support effectively.
What materials are used in the Fantasie Pippa bra?
The bra is made from a blend of Polyester, Polyamide, and Elastane. Specific components include Polyester for the cup and top cup lining, Polyamide for the lace, and a Polyester/Elastane blend for the wing.
How do I know if I have the correct band size?
The band should fit snugly and sit parallel to the ground. You should be able to fit two fingers comfortably under the band. Most people are in the middle hook when new.
Can I wear this bra for athletic activities?
This bra is designed for everyday wear and offers good support, but it is not specifically engineered as an athletic or sports bra. For high-impact activities, a dedicated sports bra is recommended.
How does the hook fastening vary by size?
D-G cups typically use a 2-hook fastening, while GG-J cups use a 3-hook fastening for added support and adjustability in larger sizes. HH-J cups also have a specific top cup lining.
What does 'Pippa' embody?
The 'Pippa' collection embodies a bold and romantic aesthetic, characterized by luscious shades, delicate lace, and a feminine floral print.
Are the cups padded?
No, the Fantasie Pippa Underwired Side Support Bra features non-padded cups, which provide a natural shape and feel.
Troubleshooting
Bra is uncomfortable or digging in
Ensure you have the correct band and cup size. Adjust the shoulder straps and the hook-and-eye fastening. Check that the underwire is sitting correctly around the base of the breast tissue.
Straps are constantly slipping
Adjust the strap sliders for a snugger fit. If slipping persists, the bra may be too large in the band, or the straps may need to be re-sewn if damaged.
Lace appears damaged or stretched
Handle the bra gently, especially during washing. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing/drying. If damage has occurred, consider if the care instructions were followed correctly.
Underwire pokes through the fabric
This can happen over time with wear and improper care. Ensure the bra is not overstretched and is washed by hand according to instructions. If severe, the bra may need replacement.

- Reshape and Dry Flat: After washing, gently reshape the bra and lay it flat to dry, away from direct heat or sunlight.
