Its key benefit lies in the underwired, three-piece cup with side support, providing superior uplift and forward projection.

FAQs
How do I determine my correct Fantasie Lucia bra size?
Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your ribcage directly under your bust. Measure your cup size by wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust. Consult the Fantasie size chart for the most accurate conversion.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the Fantasie Lucia Side Support Bra must be hand washed only. Machine washing can damage the delicate fabric, lace, and underwire structure.
What does 'side support' mean in a bra?
Side support refers to extra fabric panels or design features in the bra cup that help to pull breast tissue towards the center of the chest, providing better forward projection and a more streamlined silhouette.
Why should I avoid tumble drying?
Tumble drying can expose the bra's components, such as straps, rings, and underwire casing, to excessive heat. This can cause them to melt, warp, or break, compromising the bra's integrity and fit.
Is this bra suitable for larger busts?
Yes, this bra is specifically designed with features like wide wiring and side support to offer excellent support and shaping for larger cup sizes.
What is the material composition of the bra?
The top cup lining and cup are made of 100% Polyester. The wing is made of 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane.
How often should I replace my bra?
Bras typically last between 6 to 12 months with regular wear and proper care. Signs it's time for a replacement include stretched-out bands, worn-out straps, or loss of support.
Troubleshooting
Straps digging into shoulders.
Adjust the bra straps to a looser setting. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly at the base of your back.
Band riding up.
The bra band may be too loose or the bra size is incorrect. Ensure the band is snug and level around your torso.
Cups are not fitting properly (gaping or spillage).
This indicates an incorrect cup size. Try a different cup size, ensuring the breast tissue is fully contained within the cup and the underwire is sitting flat against the ribcage.
Discomfort from underwire.
Ensure the underwire is sitting flat against your ribcage and not on breast tissue. If discomfort persists, the bra style or size may not be suitable for your shape.
