FAQs

What makes the side support design beneficial?

The side support panels help to gently pull the breast tissue towards the center, creating a more streamlined profile and offering enhanced uplift and shape.

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the Fantasie Illusion Bra is designed for comfortable and supportive everyday wear, featuring durable materials and thoughtful construction.

Can I wear this bra with tight-fitting clothes?

The non-padded, full-coverage cups provide a natural shape. While the lace is elegant, it might be faintly visible under very thin or clingy fabrics. The overall smooth finish, however, aims to minimize this.

How do I find the right size?

Ensure you measure your band size (snug around the ribcage) and cup size (loosely around the fullest part of your bust, subtracting the band measurement). Refer to Fantasie's sizing guide for precise fitting advice.

What is the difference between this bra and a padded bra?

This is a non-padded bra, meaning it does not have any foam or padding in the cups. It offers natural shaping and relies on the construction of the cups for support and definition, unlike padded bras which add volume or shape.

How often should I replace my bra?

Bras typically need replacement every 6-12 months with regular wear, depending on care and usage. Signs it's time for a new one include stretched-out bands, worn-out straps, or loss of elasticity.

Does the lace cause irritation?

The lace is generally designed to be soft and comfortable against the skin. However, if you have very sensitive skin, it's always advisable to test the fit and feel.

Troubleshooting

Straps slipping down

Ensure the straps are adjusted to be snug but not tight. If the issue persists, the bra may need to be replaced as straps can lose elasticity over time.

Underwire poking or discomfort

Verify that the correct band and cup size are being worn. The underwire should sit smoothly around the breast tissue. If discomfort persists, it may indicate an incorrect fit or that underwired bras are not suitable for your body shape.

Band riding up

The band is crucial for support; if it's riding up, it is likely too loose. Try adjusting to a tighter hook and eye setting if available, or consider sizing down in the band.

Cups gapping at the top

Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly. The stretch neck edge aims to reduce gapping, but if it occurs, it might indicate the cup size is too large or the bra is not sitting flush against the body.
