FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the non-padded cups?

Non-padded cups offer a natural shape and feel without adding extra bulk, which can be preferred for comfort and a more natural silhouette.

How does the side sling feature improve comfort?

The side sling helps to provide additional support and can gently guide the bust towards the center, enhancing comfort and security, especially during activity.

Can I wear this bra with very low-cut tops?

As a balcony bra, it typically has a lower center gore and wider-set straps, making it suitable for many lower-cut necklines, though the embroidery might be visible depending on the garment.

What does 'vertically seamed' mean for the cups?

Vertically seamed cups are constructed with seams running up and down the cup. This type of seam is known for providing lift and a rounded shape to the bust.

Is this bra suitable for larger busts?

The Fantasie brand is known for offering supportive designs, and this underwired style with a side sling is designed to provide good support. However, the best fit always depends on individual body shape and precise sizing.

How should I care for the floral embroidery?

The floral embroidery should be cared for gently. Always hand wash and avoid any harsh rubbing or stretching of the embroidered areas. Lay flat to dry.

Can I mix and match this bra with items from other Fantasie ranges?

While this bra is part of the Magdalena range, and matching items are recommended for a coordinated set, you can technically wear it with other Fantasie bras or lingerie pieces. However, the aesthetic may vary.

What is the material of the bra?

The bra is primarily made of polyester, which is chosen for its durability, comfort, and ability to hold shape and color.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging into shoulders

Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is fitting correctly, as a loose band can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Underwire poking or discomfort

Check the fit of the bra; the underwire should sit smoothly against the rib cage. If the underwire has come loose, it may require repair or replacement of the bra.

Bra band riding up

The band may be too loose. Try fastening the bra on a tighter hook setting if available, or consider a smaller band size in your next purchase.

Embroidery or fabric damage after washing

Ensure you are strictly following the 'Hand Wash Only' and 'Do Not Tumble Dry' instructions. Use a mild detergent and avoid wringing the fabric.
