Product Information

Full details

The Fantasie Talia Side Support Bra is designed for adult women seeking comfortable and supportive everyday wear with a touch of elegance. Its key benefit lies in its structured, non-padded, full-cup design with side support for enhanced uplift and forward projection, all wrapped in a visually appealing animal print embroidery. A minor caveat is that it requires hand-washing only, demanding a bit more care than machine-washable items.

FAQs

How do I convert my US bra size to the UK size for this bra?

Fantasie bras are sold in UK sizing. You will need to refer to the specific Fantasie size chart available. Generally, US band sizes often align with UK band sizes, but cup sizes require conversion. Measure your band and bust according to the chart's instructions to find your accurate UK size.

What is the main benefit of the 'Side Support' feature?

The side support feature is designed to provide additional lift and forward projection for the bust, creating a smoother and more shapely silhouette under clothing, and offering enhanced comfort and containment.

Can this bra be machine washed?

No, this product is recommended for hand-wash only to maintain its structure, delicate embroidery, and overall longevity.

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, the Fantasie Talia Side Support Bra is designed for everyday wear, offering comfort, support, and a flattering shape suitable for most daily activities.

What kind of support does the underwire provide?

The underwire provides foundational support by lifting and separating the breasts, working in conjunction with the three-piece cup and side support to create a comfortable and secure fit.

How do I care for the embroidered details?

To care for the embroidery, hand-wash gently with a mild detergent and cool water. Avoid harsh scrubbing or wringing. Lay flat to dry, reshaping the cups while damp. Do not iron.

What does 'non-padded' mean for this bra?

'Non-padded' means the bra cups do not contain any extra foam or padding. The shape and support come from the fabric construction, underwire, and seamed cups, offering a more natural look and feel.

Troubleshooting

Bra band feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have correctly converted your US size to UK sizing using the provided size chart. If the band is still uncomfortable, try a different band size. The band should sit comfortably snug, allowing you to fit two fingers underneath.

Straps digging into shoulders.

Adjust the shoulder straps to a comfortable length. If the digging persists, the band might be too loose, and you may need to go down a band size.

Cups are not fitting correctly (gaping or spilling).

Verify your cup size by ensuring your band size is correct and your bust is fully enclosed in the cups. Gaping may indicate the cup is too large or the band is too loose; spillage may indicate the cup is too small or the band is too tight.

Embroidery is snagging or unraveling.

Handle the bra with care, especially when washing and drying. Avoid sharp objects or rough surfaces that could catch the embroidery. If minor unraveling occurs, carefully trim any loose threads with small scissors.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent support and uplift, especially for larger busts.
  • The three-piece cup and side support create a flattering, projected shape.
  • The animal print embroidery adds a stylish and elegant design element.
  • Wide wires and powernet wings ensure comfortable and secure wear throughout the day.
  • Adjustable shoulder straps allow for a personalized fit.

Cons

  • Requires hand-wash only, which is less convenient than machine washable options.
  • Non-padded design may not be preferred by those seeking significant padding.
  • The sizing is in UK measurements, requiring conversion for some users.
  • May not offer the extreme compression some users look for in sports bras.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a bra, and as such, 'setup' refers to proper fitting. Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your torso directly under the bust. If the measurement is an odd number, round up to the next even number. Measure around the fullest part of your bust. Subtract your band size from your bust measurement to find your cup size (each inch difference typically corresponds to a cup size, but refer to Fantasie's specific sizing guide for accuracy). Ensure the bra fits snugly around the band and the cups fully encapsulate the breast tissue without spilling over or gapping.

Compatibility: The Fantasie Talia Side Support Bra is designed for adult women. It is available in UK sizing; please consult the provided size chart to convert your US size to the correct UK size for an optimal fit. It is compatible with most types of everyday and semi-formal attire.

Care Instructions: This product is recommended for hand-wash only. Use cool water and a mild detergent. Gently rub the fabric and rinse thoroughly. Avoid wringing or twisting the bra. Reshape the cups while damp and lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not bleach or tumble dry.
