FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Fantasie Madgalena Balcony Bra?

The main benefit is its ability to provide natural uplift and support through its vertically seamed, non-padded cups and built-in underwiring, while also offering a decorative and comfortable fit.

Is this bra padded?

No, this is a non-padded bra. It uses seamed cups to create shape and uplift.

How should I wash this bra?

The bra should be hand washed only using a mild detergent and cool water. Avoid wringing and lay flat to dry.

What does 'balcony' style mean?

A balcony bra, also known as a 'balconette' or 'demi-cup' bra, typically has cups that are cut horizontally, revealing more of the upper breast. It offers uplift and a rounded shape.

Can I wear this bra with all types of clothing?

The balcony style works well with moderate necklines. While the decorative elements are elegant, the cut might be visible under very low-cut tops.

What is the side sling for?

The built-in side sling is designed to offer additional support, helping to center and gently push the breasts towards the center, enhancing shape and security.

What material is the bra made of?

The bra is primarily made of Polyester.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A well-fitting bra should have the band sitting comfortably level on your back, straps that don't dig in or slip, and cups that fully contain the breast without gaping or spilling over.

Troubleshooting

Bra band rides up

Ensure the band is on the loosest hook initially. If it still rides up, the band may be too large and a smaller band size might be needed. Ensure straps are adjusted correctly.

Straps dig into shoulders

Loosen the adjustable straps. If the bra still feels uncomfortable, the band size might be too small, causing the straps to bear too much weight.

Cups gap at the top

Check that you are leaning forward when putting the bra on to ensure all breast tissue is in the cup. The cup size might be too large, or the seaming may not suit your breast shape.

Underwire pokes or feels uncomfortable

Ensure the bra is the correct size and shape for you. The underwire should sit flat against the rib cage. If it consistently pokes, the bra may be too small in the cup or band, or the wire shape may not match your anatomy.

  • Provides excellent natural uplift and shaping.
  • Underwiring ensures a supportive and secure fit.
  • Adjustable straps offer a personalized and comfortable experience.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

As a bra, the "setup" primarily involves proper fitting and adjustment.

  1. Ensure the band sits comfortably and level around your torso.
  2. Adjust the straps so they are snug but not digging into your shoulders.
  3. Check that the side sling and cups encapsulate the breast tissue appropriately.

Compatibility:

This bra is designed to be worn with a variety of clothing styles. The balcony cut works well with moderate necklines. Consider pairing with matching items from the Fantasie Magdalena range for a coordinated look.

Care Instructions:

Garment Care: Hand Wash.

  • Use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicates.
  • Wash in cool or lukewarm water.
  • Do not wring or twist.
  • Rinse thoroughly.
  • Gently squeeze out excess water.
  • Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  • Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to preserve the fabric and structure.
