FAQs

What is a balconette bra?

A balconette bra, also known as a balcony or demi-bra, typically has cups that are cut horizontally, offering less coverage than a full cup bra. It provides uplift and creates a flattering, rounded shape, often with a lower neckline.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A well-fitting bra should have a band that sits level on your back and feels snug but not tight. The cups should fully enclose your breasts without any gaping or spillage. Straps should stay in place without digging into your shoulders. The underwire should lie flat against your rib cage.

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this bra is hand wash only. Machine washing can damage the delicate embroidery, underwire, and overall structure of the bra.

What is the purpose of the side sling?

The built-in side sling in this bra is designed to help push the bust towards the center, providing additional support, shaping, and a more secure fit.

What material is the bra made from?

The Fantasie Magdalena Bra is primarily made from Polyester.

Does this bra have padding?

No, this particular model features non-padded cups that create a natural uplift.

Can I wear this bra with a very low-cut top?

Yes, the balconette style is designed with a lower neckline and can be suitable for many lower-cut tops and dresses.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the band is at the correct tightness, as a loose band can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Band riding up

The band may be too loose. Ensure you are wearing the correct band size, and that it sits parallel to the ground.

Breasts spilling out of the top of the cup

The cup size may be too small or the style may not be suitable. Ensure the fabric lies flat against your breast at the top. Consider trying a cup size up.

Underwire poking

This can happen if the bra is the wrong size or shape for you, or if the underwire has become damaged. Ensure the underwire channel sits flat against your rib cage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent natural uplift and support.
  • Features attractive floral embroidery for a luxurious feel.
  • Adjustable straps ensure a personalized and comfortable fit.
  • Side sling offers additional security and shaping.
  • Non-padded cups offer a natural look and feel.

Cons

  • Requires hand washing only, which may be less convenient for some users.
  • As a specific style, it may not suit all preferences or outfit types.
  • Underwiring might be uncomfortable for individuals sensitive to it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a garment, not an electronic device, so 'setup' refers to proper fitting. Ensure the band sits level on your back and the cups fully enclose the breast tissue. Adjust the straps for a snug but comfortable fit.

Compatibility: The balconette style is best suited for lower necklines. It pairs well with blouses, dresses, and tops where a fuller cup coverage bra might be visible.

Care: This garment is hand wash only. Use a mild detergent in cool water. Rinse thoroughly and gently squeeze out excess water without wringing. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron.
