FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing guide. Measure your band size (underbust) and cup size (overbust minus underbust). Ensure the back band is snug but comfortable and the cups fully contain the breast tissue without gaping or spilling.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra must be hand washed only. Machine washing and tumble drying can damage the delicate materials, lace, and hardware.

What is the benefit of the side support feature?

The side support panel helps to pull the breast tissue towards the center, providing excellent forward projection and a smooth, rounded shape, while also preventing outward spread.

What is the difference in hook fastening for different sizes?

Sizes D-FF cups typically use a 2-hook fastening, while larger sizes G-J cups use a 3-hook fastening to provide a more secure and supportive band.

Is this bra suitable for larger busts?

Yes, the Fantasie Illusion bra is designed with features like wide wires, a supportive band (with 3 hooks on larger sizes), and a three-piece cup with side support, making it well-suited for providing support to larger busts.

What does 'underwired full cup' mean?

It means the bra has built-in underwires beneath each cup for support and lift, and the cups are designed to fully enclose the entire breast, providing maximum coverage.

How often should I wash my bra?

It's generally recommended to hand wash bras after every 1-2 wears to maintain hygiene and extend the life of the garment. Avoid frequent washing if not necessary to preserve the fabric and elastic.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Ensure the bra is not overtightened. Adjust the straps to a comfortable, secure fit where the band provides the primary support.

Band riding up

The band may be too loose or the cup size might be incorrect. Check the hook fastening; consider trying a size down in the band if the cups fit well, or ensure the cups are fully encapsulating the breast tissue.

Wire discomfort

The wide wires are designed for comfort, but ensure the bra fits correctly. The wires should lie flat against the ribcage, extending to the armpit. If discomfort persists, the cup or band size may need adjustment.

Lace irritation

While designed to be soft, some individuals may find lace irritating. Ensure the bra is washed according to care instructions to maintain fabric softness. If irritation continues, consider bras with less prominent lace detailing.
