FAQs
What makes the Fantasie Lucia bra provide good uplift and projection?
The bra features a specially designed three-piece cup with integrated side support panels, which work together to lift the bust upwards and project it forward, creating a rounded and natural shape.
How do I know if I need the 2-hook or 3-hook fastening?
The 2-hook fastening is for D-G cups, while the 3-hook fastening is for GG-J cups. This provides a more secure and comfortable fit for larger cup sizes.
Can I machine wash this bra?
No, the Fantasie Lucia bra must be hand washed only in cool water with a mild detergent to protect its delicate materials and construction.
Why should I avoid tumble drying?
Tumble drying can damage the bra's components, such as the straps and rings, through excessive heat. It is recommended to lay the bra flat to dry naturally.
What are the main materials used in this bra?
The top cup lining and cup are made from 100% Polyester, while the wing is made from 68% Polyamide and 32% Elastane. The straps are made from a soft peach skin material.
Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, it is designed for everyday wear, offering a combination of support, comfort, and an attractive aesthetic.
What is the significance of the 'side support' feature?
The side support is a panel within the cup that helps to draw the breast tissue towards the center, enhancing forward projection and minimizing side bulge for a smoother silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels too tight or too loose around the band.
Adjust the hook and eye fastening. If it's still uncomfortable, consider trying a different band size in combination with your current cup size.
Straps are digging into shoulders or not staying up.
Adjust the shoulder straps using the sliders for a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure the bra band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as this provides most of the support.
Underwire is uncomfortable or poking.
Ensure you have the correct cup size, as an incorrect size can cause the underwire to sit incorrectly. Check that the bra is being hand-washed and air-dried according to instructions, as improper care can affect the underwire casing.
Lace or decorative elements appear damaged.
Handle the bra gently during washing and drying. Avoid harsh scrubbing or wringing. Always follow the hand-wash and flat-dry instructions carefully.
