Full details

FAQs
Is the Fantasie Marie Balconette bra padded?
No, this model features non-padded cups with vertical seams designed for a natural, lifted shape.
How should I wash this bra?
We recommend hand washing in cool water to preserve the delicate embroidery and the integrity of the underwires.
What is the primary purpose of the side support panel?
The side support panel is designed to centralize the bust, preventing tissue from migrating toward the underarms.
Can I tumble dry the bra?
No, tumble drying will damage the elastic and the delicate embroidery. Always air dry.
Are the straps adjustable?
Yes, the straps are fully adjustable and feature a soft, peach-skin finish for added comfort.
What material is this bra made of?
The bra is primarily constructed from high-quality, durable polyester, chosen for its strength and ability to hold intricate embroidery.
Troubleshooting
Underwire is digging into the sternum
This may indicate the band size is too tight or the cup size is too small; try a larger band or cup size.
Straps are slipping off shoulders
Ensure the back band is not too loose, as the band provides 80% of the support; adjust straps to a shorter length to increase tension.
Visible lines under clothing
Because this bra features textured embroidery, it is best paired with heavier fabrics or patterns rather than thin, light-colored jerseys.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Fantasie Marie Balconette Bra, proper care is essential. Given the delicate embroidery and construction, hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent is the recommended method. If using a machine, always secure the hook-and-eye closures and place the bra inside a lingerie wash bag to prevent the underwires from snagging or deforming. Always air dry the garment flat or hung by the center gore; never tumble dry, as the heat can break down the elastic properties of the polyester and trim. Ensure the band sits horizontally across your back and the underwire sits flat against your sternum for the best fit and support.
