Full details

FAQs
How do I determine my correct bra size for this model?
It is recommended to get professionally measured, or measure yourself by finding your band size (underbust measurement) and cup size (overbust measurement minus underbust measurement). Consult a size chart if unsure.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the Fantasie Lucia Side Support Bra must be hand washed only. Machine washing and tumble drying can damage the delicate materials and structure.
What does 'side support' mean in a bra?
Side support refers to extra fabric panels or construction within the cup that help to draw the breast tissue towards the center, providing better forward projection and minimizing side bulge.
Is this bra suitable for a larger bust?
Yes, this bra is specifically designed with features like a wide underwire, three-piece cup, and side support to offer excellent support and shaping for larger busts.
What material is the bra made from?
The top cup lining and cups are 100% Polyester. The wing is made of 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane.
Can I wear this bra under a t-shirt?
Yes, the smooth cup design and supportive structure of the Fantasie Lucia bra make it suitable for wearing under t-shirts and other fitted clothing.
What should I do if the lace feels itchy?
Ensure the bra is properly rinsed after washing. If irritation persists, it's possible the lace material may not be suitable for your skin. Consider trying a bra with less or different lace detailing.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Adjust the straps to a looser setting. Ensure the band is sitting correctly on your back, as a loose band can cause straps to bear too much weight.
Band riding up
The band may be too loose. Try fastening the bra on a tighter hook setting. Ensure the back band is sitting parallel to the floor.
Underwire discomfort
Check that the underwire is sitting correctly in the channel at the base of the cups. Ensure you have the correct cup size; a too-small cup can push the underwire away from the body.
Bra not providing enough support
Verify the cup size is correct. Ensure the side support panels are positioned correctly. The band and straps should be adjusted for optimal lift.
