FAQs
What material is the Fantasie Lucia bra made from?
The bra features a top cup and lining made of 100% Polyester. The wing is made of 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane. It also incorporates stretch lace.
How do I determine my correct bra size?
It is recommended to get professionally measured. Key measurements include your band size (around the ribcage) and your cup size (the difference between the bust measurement and the band measurement).
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the Fantasie Lucia Side Support Bra must be hand washed only. Machine washing or tumble drying can damage the bra.
What does 'Side Support' mean in the bra's name?
It refers to the design feature within the cup that provides extra uplift and helps project the bust forward, creating a desirable shape and silhouette.
What is the purpose of the powernet wing?
The printed powernet wing provides anchorage and support to the back of the bra, ensuring it stays securely in place throughout the day.
What is the difference in hook fastenings for different sizes?
D-G cups typically have a 2-hook fastening. GG-J cups usually have a 3-hook fastening. For HH-J cups, there is also a top cup lining.
Is the floral pattern available in other colors?
The product information indicates availability in White and Blue floral patterns, among other color families for different variants.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging in
Adjust the shoulder straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is at the correct level and not too tight.
Band riding up
The band may be too large. Try a smaller band size. Ensure the bra is fastened on the loosest hook initially to allow for stretching over time.
Underwire discomfort
Check if the underwire is sitting correctly in the gore or the wing. Ensure the correct cup size is being worn; if the cup is too small, the underwire may dig in.
Lace looks damaged
Ensure the bra has been washed by hand only and not put in a tumble dryer. Gently smooth the lace back into place if possible.
Pros and Cons

- Features a beautiful and exclusive floral design.
- Provides good anchorage and support with the powernet wing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a bra, and its 'setup' involves finding the correct fit. Ensure the band sits level on your back and the cups fully enclose the breast tissue. Adjust the shoulder straps for a comfortable, secure fit without digging in.
Compatibility:
Designed for adult women, this bra is available in a range of band and cup sizes. It is compatible with various types of clothing, providing support and shape.
Care Instructions:
- Hand Wash Only: It is crucial to hand wash the bra in cool water with a mild detergent. This preserves the fabric integrity, lace, and underwire.
- Do Not Tumble Dry: Heat from a tumble dryer can damage the straps, rings, and fabric, leading to breakages or loss of elasticity.
- Dry Flat: Gently reshape the bra and lay it flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
