Product Information

Full details

The Fantasie Magdalena Balcony Bra is designed for women seeking comfortable support and a flattering silhouette. Its key benefit lies in its underwired, vertically seamed cups that provide natural uplift and a smooth shape.

FAQs

What makes the Magdalena bra a 'balcony' style?

A balcony bra, also known as a balconette bra, typically has wider-set straps and cups that are cut horizontally, providing uplift and a flattering, rounded shape with moderate coverage.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, it is recommended for hand wash only to protect the delicate embroidery and fabric structure.

What is the purpose of the inner side sling?

The inner side sling is a feature within the cup designed to provide additional support, helping to center the bust and enhance uplift for a more defined silhouette.

Is this bra suitable for larger busts?

Yes, the Fantasie brand is known for providing excellent support, and the underwiring and construction of the Magdalena bra are designed to offer support for various bust sizes.

How do I know if I'm wearing the correct bra size?

A well-fitting bra should have the band sitting parallel to the floor and snug against your body, the center gore should lie flat against your chest, and the underwire should encircle your entire breast without digging in. Straps should stay in place without slipping.

What materials are used in the Fantasie Magdalena bra?

The bra is primarily made of Polyester, contributing to its comfort, durability, and the ability to hold intricate embroidery.

Where can I find matching items to complete the set?

You can look for other items within the Fantasie Magdalena range, typically including briefs, thongs, or other coordinating lingerie pieces.

Troubleshooting

Bra straps keep slipping down

Ensure the straps are adjusted to be snug but not too tight. If slippage persists, check that the bra is the correct size and fit; the band should sit firmly on your ribcage.

Underwire is uncomfortable or digging in

This may indicate an incorrect bra size or fit. Ensure the center gore sits flat against your sternum and that the underwire channels are fully encompassing the breast tissue. Consult a sizing guide or professional fitter if discomfort continues.

Embroidery appears to be snagging or unraveling

Handle the bra with care during washing and wear. If minor snags occur, attempt to gently pull the thread back through to the underside. Avoid catching the embroidery on sharp objects.
