FAQs
How do I determine my correct size?
It is recommended to get professionally measured for the most accurate fit. Key measurements include your band size (snug underbust) and cup size (difference between overbust and underbust measurements).
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, this bra must be hand washed only. Machine washing, especially with agitation and high heat, can damage the fabric, underwire, and delicate lace detailing.
What is the purpose of the side support feature?
The side support panel is integrated into the cup design to help lift the breast tissue from the sides, directing it forward. This provides enhanced uplift and creates a smoother, more projected silhouette.
What does 'wide wired' mean?
Wide wired refers to underwires that have a larger surface area or are positioned further apart than in standard bras. This design aims to provide broader support and comfort, particularly for larger cup sizes, by distributing pressure more evenly.
How often should I replace my bra?
Bras typically last between 6-12 months with regular wear and proper care. Signs that it's time for a replacement include stretching of the band, loss of elasticity, underwire issues, or visible wear and tear.
Is the floral print on all versions of the Lucia bra?
The product description highlights a romantic floral print as a key design element, exclusive to Fantasie. Some sibling products may be available in different colors or patterns, but the Lucia style emphasizes this print.
What material is the wing made of?
The wing is made from printed powernet, which is a blend of 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane, designed for anchorage and support.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels uncomfortable or digs in.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Adjust the shoulder straps and check that the band is sitting level on your back. If discomfort persists, the cup lining or wide wiring may not suit your shape; consider trying a different style.
Straps are slipping.
Adjust the sliders on the shoulder straps to tighten them. Ensure the bra band is at the correct level, as a loose band can cause straps to slip.
Underwire is poking.
This can indicate an incorrect cup size or that the underwire casing has become damaged. Ensure the bra is washed and dried according to care instructions. If the casing is damaged, the bra may need replacement.
Lace detailing feels itchy.
While designed to be soft, some individuals may be sensitive to lace. Ensure the bra is well-rinsed after washing. If irritation persists, consider wearing a different bra for sensitive skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Strap Adjustment: Adjust the fully adjustable shoulder straps for a comfortable and secure fit, ensuring they lie flat against your shoulders without digging in.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Hand wash only in cool or lukewarm water. Use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicates.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the bra flat on a towel away from direct heat or sunlight to air dry. This is crucial to prevent damage to the straps, underwire, and fabric elasticity.
