FAQs
Does this bra provide full coverage?
Yes, the Illusion is designed as a full-cup bra, providing comprehensive coverage and secure containment.
Will the lace show through my shirt?
The lace is designed to be flat, which helps minimize visibility under clothing compared to traditional embroidered lace.
Is this suitable for all bust types?
The stretch band along the neck edge makes this model particularly versatile for various bust types and shapes.
How do I know which hook fastening I have?
Generally, D-FF cups feature 2 hooks, while G-J cups feature 3 hooks for extra structural support.
How often should I replace this bra?
To maintain optimal support, it is recommended to rotate your bras and replace them every 6 to 12 months depending on frequency of use.
Can I put this bra in the dryer?
No, heat from a dryer can damage the elastic components and lace; always air dry your bra.
Troubleshooting
Straps slipping off shoulders
Adjust the length of the straps using the rear sliders and ensure the tow-back feature is sitting flat against your back.
Wires digging into underarm
Check that the band size is not too tight and that the cups are properly positioned; if the problem persists, the wire width may not be suited for your specific ribcage shape.
Lace appearing worn after washing
Ensure you are using a delicates wash bag if machine washing on a gentle cycle, or switch to hand washing to prevent abrasion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Fantasie Illusion bra, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Utilize the adjustable shoulder straps to achieve the correct tension. If the band rides up, try a smaller band size and larger cup size.
- Hook Fastening: D-FF cups typically use a 2-hook fastening, while G-J cups utilize a 3-hook fastening for added security.
- Washing: Hand wash in cool water using a mild detergent to preserve the elasticity of the lace and the integrity of the wires.
- Storage: Store flat or hung by the center gore rather than folding the cups inward, as this protects the shape of the three-piece construction.
