Product Information

Full details

The Fantasie Emmaline Side Support Bra is designed for adults seeking a perfect blend of sophisticated aesthetics and structured support. Featuring a three-piece cup construction and side support panels, it provides a lifted, projected silhouette for all-day confidence. While the bra offers exceptional comfort through wide underwiring and powernet wings, users should note that the delicate lace construction requires hand-washing to maintain its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

FAQs

Can I machine wash this bra?

No, this garment is recommended for hand-wash only to protect the delicate lace and the structural shape of the cups.

What is the purpose of the three-piece cup?

The three-piece construction is used to provide better definition, projection, and support than a standard molded cup.

How do I ensure I have the right fit?

The underwire should sit flat against the ribcage, the center gore should be flush to your chest, and the band should remain horizontal without riding up.

Is the material breathable?

Yes, the polyester blend and powernet construction are designed to balance support with enough airflow for daily comfort.

Are the straps adjustable?

Yes, the shoulder straps are fully adjustable to allow you to tailor the lift and tension to your preference.

What should I do if the lace begins to fray?

Avoid washing with other items that have hooks or zippers, as these can snag the delicate lace. If minor fraying occurs, carefully trim loose threads with small scissors.

Troubleshooting

The underwire feels like it is digging into the sides.

Ensure the bra is the correct band size. If the band is too tight, the wires can distort and press into the body. Adjust the straps to see if redistributing the tension helps.

Cups seem to overflow at the top.

This often indicates a need for a larger cup size. Check that the breast tissue is fully scooped into the cup upon putting on the garment.

The bra slides down during the day.

The powernet wings may have lost elasticity if not washed properly, or the band size may be too large. Ensure you are using the tightest hook setting if necessary.

  • Wide wires enhance comfort for long-duration wear

Cons

  • Requires hand-washing only
  • Not intended for high-impact activities
  • Lace detailing may show texture under very thin fabrics

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Fantasie Emmaline, proper fit and maintenance are essential. When putting the bra on, lean forward slightly to allow your bust to fall naturally into the cups before securing the hook-and-eye closure. Once hooked, reach into the cup to smooth the breast tissue toward the center and ensure the wire sits flat against your ribcage.

Regarding care, this garment is strictly hand-wash only. Soaking the bra in cool water with a gentle lingerie detergent is recommended. Avoid twisting or wringing the cups, as this can damage the internal structure of the wires and the lace. Lay the bra flat or hang it by the gore (center piece) to air dry away from direct sunlight. To maintain the best fit, consider pairing this with coordinating pieces from the Fantasie range, which are designed to work in tandem with the bra's support structure.
