This bra fits small. It is the second of my bras ordered in 32FF but gotten in 30G and while the band runs about true to size, the cups are a cup too small. It is supposed to be stretch lace bra (and there is stretch lace https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />) but unfortunately the strong, tight elastic at the top of the cup completely negates that and it cuts in (rather extremely) into my soft tissue.

The bra is *not* as full coverage as the model photos imply. In the photo it seems more tall and narrow (the cup), but in reality it is not nearly as tall (narrow it is).

For me, the only good thing about this bra is the gorgeous slate colour.

This bra is not owned any more

• It's a beautiful bra! Fantasie was my favorite brand for over a decade. Unfortunately they just don't work for me now.....sigh.

  I'm extremely bummed all their bras seem to have the same fit and none seem to work for me.

• Their bras are beautiful so I totally understand your disappointment.

• Wow, that bra is indeed small! What a shame, because it is beautiful.

• Wow, how beautiful! It’s a shame that it’s not a good fit.

• I tried both Jacqueline Lace and the original Jacqueline (is it still made? I can go check) and found contrary to what I was being told by sales assistants, they really did NOT fit exactly the same. Only the original Jacqueline (which admittedly does not look as pretty or delicate) had a nice forgiving fit. I think Fantasie saw the success of that design (because it was so easy to fit on people) and then they decided to try and "improve" with wacky colors (Selina, I think was the name of that spinoff) and fancier materials etc. but some of the fit qualities were lost.

  I think there's some of the old Jacquelines left in stock, but not many. I remember seeing it on Figleaves for sure.

  It is quite beautiful. Funny enough I would probably still wear that with all those little fit problems.
  It's so amazing to me how differently we all see things. When I look at this bra I see a very full coverage bra with quite a wide wire and you feel it is not full coverage at all and narrow.
  Post the measurements please!

  I think the main fit problems cannot be seen in the photos due to the colour of the bra. I guess overall it just feels small when on.

  I am working through the bra measurements I have, this one is next, lol! Just got my measuring tape.

  Oh, I totally feel you brasaremean I need to get a new measure tape as well. I believe I have a good 10 or so bra's to measure, picture, and review!
