FAQs

How do I know if I have the right size?

A well-fitting bra should have the band sitting level and snug on your back, the underwire encasing the entire breast without digging in, and the cups covering the breast fully without gaping or spilling over. The straps should stay put without needing constant adjustment.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra must be hand washed only. Machine washing can damage the delicate lace, underwire casing, and adjustable straps.

Why should I not tumble dry the bra?

Tumble drying can cause the fabric to shrink, damage the elasticity of the straps and back band, and potentially melt or deform the plastic components of the adjusters and rings, compromising the bra's support and lifespan.

What does 'side support' mean in a bra?

Side support refers to extra fabric or structure built into the side of the cup. It helps to pull the breast tissue towards the center, providing enhanced uplift and a more forward projection for a smoother, rounded shape.

What is the difference in hook fastening for different cup sizes?

The Cesile bra uses a 2-hook fastening for sizes D through FF cups, which provides adequate support for these sizes. For larger cup sizes, G through J, it uses a 3-hook fastening, offering a wider band and more robust support necessary for fuller busts.

Is the lace panel on the top cup rigid?

The top cup features a powerful stretch lace with increased elastane. This means it has flexibility to adapt to your shape, providing support while allowing for comfortable movement without feeling overly rigid.

Troubleshooting

Bra feels uncomfortable or digs in.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check that the underwire is sitting correctly around the breast tissue and not on it. Adjust the shoulder straps for a comfortable, supportive fit. The back wing elastic is concealed for comfort, but ensure it's not rolled or folded awkwardly.

Straps are slipping off the shoulders.

Adjust the shoulder straps to be tighter. Ensure the back band is level and snug. The center pull straps with angled rings are designed to help prevent slippage, so check they are positioned correctly.

Cups are not providing enough support or shape.

Verify you are in the correct cup size. The three-piece cup with side support is key; ensure your breast tissue is fully contained within the cups, reaching the side support panel.

Underwire pokes or feels rigid.

This can sometimes occur if the bra is too small or if the underwire channel is not sitting correctly. Ensure the wire follows the natural curve of the breast and sits flat against the ribcage. If the issue persists after checking fit, the bra may be damaged.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a bra, and as such, 'setup' involves selecting the correct size and fastening the hooks and eyes at the back to achieve a snug and supportive fit. Ensure the underwire sits comfortably around the base of the breast and the straps are adjusted to provide gentle lift without digging into the shoulders.

Compatibility: The Fantasie Cesile Underwired Full Cup Bra is designed for adult women and is available in a range of band and cup sizes (e.g., 32D, 38DD, 40G, 38J). It is compatible with most types of clothing, offering a smooth line under various outfits.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Hand wash only. Use a mild detergent in cool or lukewarm water. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. The heat can damage the delicate materials, especially the straps and adjusters. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Bleaching/Ironing: Do not bleach or iron. These processes can degrade the fabric and elastic.
