FAQs
What is a balconette bra?
A balconette bra, also known as a balcony or demi-bra, typically has cups that are cut horizontally or have a lower center gore. It provides uplift and creates cleavage without fully covering the breast, offering a flattering, rounded shape.
How do I determine my correct bra size?
Measure around your ribcage directly under your bust for the band size (add a few inches if the number is odd to get an even number, though professional fitting is best). Measure around the fullest part of your bust for the cup measurement. The difference between these two measurements determines your cup size (e.g., 1 inch difference is A cup, 2 inches is B, etc.).
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, this bra is recommended for hand wash only to preserve its delicate fabric, embroidery, and overall structure.
What material is the bra made of?
The Fantasie Magdalena Balconette Bra is primarily made of Polyester, featuring multi-tonal embroidery and lurex details.
Does the side sling provide extra support?
Yes, the built-in side sling is designed to offer additional support and security, especially beneficial for larger cup sizes, helping to keep the breast tissue contained.
How should I care for the embroidery?
Gently hand wash and avoid wringing or harsh scrubbing. Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct heat to prevent damage to the delicate embroidered threads.
What occasions is this bra suitable for?
Due to its elegant floral embroidery and supportive design, it's suitable for everyday wear, special occasions, or whenever you desire a touch of luxury and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in or falling down
Adjust the bra straps to a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your ribcage.
Underwire discomfort
Verify the bra size is correct. Wider wires are used for comfort, but ensure the band and cups fit snugly without gaping or pinching.
Bra loses shape after washing
Ensure the bra is being hand washed and air-dried correctly. Avoid machine washing, high heat, or harsh detergents which can damage the fabric and structure.
Embroidery appears damaged
Handle with care during washing and wearing. Avoid snagging the delicate embroidery on rough surfaces.
