Full details

FAQs
Does this bra offer full coverage?
Yes, the side support and cup construction provide substantial coverage while maintaining a modern, flattering shape.
Can the straps be adjusted?
Yes, the shoulder straps are fully adjustable to ensure a custom fit.
Is the lace top abrasive?
No, the lace is designed to be soft and features a stretch band to ensure it lies flat against the skin without digging.
How should I store this bra?
Store it flat or nested inside another bra cup to keep the cups from deforming; avoid folding one cup into the other.
Will the metallic trim tarnish?
The trim is designed to be durable, but hand washing and prompt drying will help prevent any potential discoloration.
Troubleshooting
Straps are digging into shoulders
Ensure the back band is level and snug; if it is too loose, weight transfers to the straps, causing digging.
Center gore does not sit flat against the chest
This often indicates that the cup size may be too small, causing the breasts to push the bra away from the body.
Wires feel uncomfortable under the arms
Check that the bra size is correct; wires that are too narrow or too wide for your breast root can cause irritation.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent forward projection and uplift
- Provides a smooth, seamless look under most outfits
- Tow back design effectively prevents strap slippage
- Stretch lace edge offers a flexible fit for different breast shapes
Cons
- Lace detailing requires gentle hand washing
- Nylon material may not be as breathable as cotton-based alternatives
- Underwire requires proper fitting to avoid discomfort
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Fantasie Illusion bra, proper care is essential. Always fasten the hooks before washing to prevent snagging on other items. Hand washing in cool water with a gentle lingerie detergent is highly recommended to protect the lace and metallic trim. If you must use a washing machine, place the bra in a protective mesh laundry bag and select a delicate cycle.
Regarding compatibility, the bra is designed for a standard 36GG fit. Because the top edge features a stretchable band, it performs well with various bust types, provided the band size is consistent with your measurements. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can break down the elasticity of the nylon fabric over time, leading to premature loss of support.
