The Fantasie Magdalena Bra is designed for adult women seeking a blend of support, comfort, and elegant design. Its key benefit lies in the underwired, non-padded balconette cups that offer natural uplift and a flattering silhouette, enhanced by fully adjustable straps and a side sling for a customized, secure fit. A potential caveat is that it requires hand washing to maintain its delicate floral embroidery and fabric integrity.

A balconette bra typically has cups that are cut horizontally, offering less coverage than a full cup bra. They are designed to lift and separate the breasts, creating a 'balcony' effect and a flattering cleavage, often with wider-set straps.
Yes, the Fantasie Magdalena Bra is designed for comfort and support, making it suitable for everyday wear. Its adjustable features and supportive construction are ideal for daily activities.
No, this bra should only be hand washed. Machine washing, especially with heat or harsh cycles, can damage the delicate embroidery, underwire, and fabric structure.
Non-padded cups mean the bra does not have any extra foam or padding built into the cups. The shaping and support come from the cut and construction of the fabric, including the seams and underwire.
It is best to get professionally measured or use a detailed online sizing guide. Ensure you measure your band size (underbust) and cup size (overbust) accurately. The bra should fit snugly in the band and the cups should fully contain your breast tissue without gaping or spilling.
The side sling is an extra panel of fabric integrated into the cup, typically on the outer side. It helps to provide additional support, lift, and forward projection for the bust, contributing to a smoother, more rounded shape.
The primary material for this bra is polyester, which provides durability and a smooth feel. It is often blended with other fibers for comfort and fit.
Ensure the bra is the correct size. If the band fits well, adjust the straps to a comfortable tension. Over-tightening the straps can cause discomfort.
This may indicate an incorrect cup size or a need for a different bra style. Ensure the underwire channels sit flat against the ribcage and encompass the entire breast tissue.
The band size might be too large. Try a smaller band size. The bra should sit level and snug on your back.
Ensure you are following the hand-wash only instructions carefully and avoiding heat or wringing, which can distort the cups and fabric.
Setup: As a garment, the Fantasie Magdalena Bra requires no technical setup. Proper fitting is essential for optimal comfort and support. It is recommended to consult a professional bra fitter or use detailed sizing guides to ensure the correct band and cup size.
Compatibility: This bra is designed for adult female wearers and is compatible with most standard clothing types, including blouses, dresses, t-shirts, and sweaters. Its balconette style works well with wide-neck, scoop-neck, and V-neck tops.
