Product Information

Full details

The Fantasie Talia Full Cup Bra is designed for adult women seeking a blend of striking style and supportive comfort. Its key benefit is excellent uplift and forward projection thanks to a three-piece cup with side support and wide wiring. A potential caveat is that sizing for the hook fastening differs based on cup size, so checking the chart is essential for the perfect fit.

FAQs

How do I determine my correct bra size?

Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your ribcage directly under your bust, ensuring it's snug. Then, measure your bust size by wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust. Consult the Fantasie sizing chart online or in-store for precise conversions.

What does 'full cup' mean?

A full cup bra provides maximum coverage, enclosing the entire breast. It's designed to offer significant support and lift, making it suitable for larger busts or for those who prefer a more secure feel.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, hand washing is recommended to maintain the bra's shape, support, and delicate fabric. Machine washing can damage the underwire, cups, and straps.

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

The number of hooks determines the width of the band at the back. D-G cups use a 2-hook system, while larger cup sizes (GG-J) use a 3-hook system to provide a wider, more supportive band.

Is the embroidery fragile?

The Austrian-designed embroidery is delicate. While it adds to the bra's aesthetic appeal, it requires gentle care during washing and handling to prevent snagging or damage.

What material is the bra made of?

The bra is primarily made of Polyester, with details like soft peach skin shoulder straps contributing to comfort.

How do I care for the printed design?

To preserve the printed design and the overall integrity of the bra, always hand wash in cool water with mild detergent and lay flat to dry away from direct heat.

Troubleshooting

Bra is uncomfortable or digging in

Ensure you have selected the correct band and cup size. Check that the shoulder straps are adjusted properly and not too tight. The underwire should lie flat against the body.

Straps are slipping

Adjust the shoulder straps to be tighter. Ensure the back band is snug and at the correct hook fastening for your size. Make sure the bra is clean, as oils from the skin can make straps slippery.

Underwire is poking out

This typically indicates the bra is old or damaged. If the bra is new, it might be an issue with the construction or fit. Cease wearing and consider replacing the bra.

Coverage is insufficient

Verify that the correct cup size has been selected. The centre gore should sit flush against the sternum, and the cups should fully enclose the breast tissue without spilling over.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent support and uplift.
  • Comfortable for all-day wear due to wide wiring and soft straps.
  • Unique and eye-catching design.
  • Adjustable straps ensure a customized fit.
  • Available in a range of sizes for broader appeal.

Cons

  • The hook fastening system varies by cup size, requiring attention to detail.
  • May not be suitable for very deep plunging necklines due to the full cup design.
  • Polyester material may not be ideal for those with sensitivities to synthetic fabrics.
  • The intricate pattern might not suit minimalist style preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This bra requires no assembly. Its 'setup' primarily involves selecting the correct size and adjusting the straps for a secure, comfortable fit.

Compatibility:

  • Garment Pairing: Best suited for outfits that accommodate a full cup bra. The design is bold and may show under thinner or low-cut garments.
  • Sizing: Crucially, note the hook fastening difference: 2 hooks for D-G cups, and 3 hooks for GG-J cups. Ensure you are aware of which applies to your size.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Hand wash only using a mild detergent in cool water. Avoid machine washing to preserve the fabric and structure.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. This can damage the fabric, embroidery, and underwire.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach. Use only non-chlorine bleach if absolutely necessary and only if the care label permits.
