My poor left boob doesn't want to stay in this bra. The band is stretchier than the other Fantasie bras I've tried but not overly so. I love the design overall so I'm going to try a larger cup size next.

This bra has a 3 part soft cup. It is like a balconette style. My breasts are pendulous and close set, so this style is perfect for me. The wires at the gore literally touch. I'm not as full on top as I used to be, so there is a little wrinkling at the top, but it's acceptable. Under tee shirts, there is a line across the breasts, but it's minimal and doesn't bother me.

Really like the way it looks. Thought on initial try on that it was very comfortable, but realized that after wearing for a few hours, it gets uncomfortably tight.

Really great information here by xiphoid!
I bought this bra at bravissimo in person on a recent trip abroad. I'll be keeping it since its probably the bra that fits me best at this moment but I also have some fit issues: the straps feel slightly too far apart (they sit on the outer edges of my shoulders -- I feel like if I slouch a lot, they'll fall off...although they haven't yet.) The fabric around the band feels very firm but actually seems to stretch throughout the day. I ended up moving to the shortest hook after about 4 hours of wear today after ... starting on the longest. The gore sits flat on my sternum but the wires to seem to slightly push apart breast tissue which isn't the most comfortable. I feel like if the wires were 2 cm shorter or so close they were touching, it would be much more comfortable.
I will also echo the warning about being careful when flipping the bra over from upside down -- the sudden snap REALLY hurts.
What I'm working with: I'm about average height and build w/ slightly narrow shoulders. My breasts are conical (2/4) but my tissue is pretty firm all around (except around the areola so squishing to be more round feels ok.) As far as I can tell, average projection, spacing is about 1.5 fingers' width.

The cups are soft and comfortable, almost feels like nothings there.
I don’t like the shape - too pointy.
Top of the slanted cups edge is a stretchy lace. It cuts into my breast tissue.
What I think is the “side support system” gives a weird shape to the sides of my boobs. Like there’s a seam running down the side warping my tissue, but not pushing the shape in, I’m still filling out beyond my arms.

Fits my FOB, narrow short roots well

Comfortable and supportive. Good everyday bra.
Sadly, no longer fits due to recent weight loss.

This bra is a great fit, and was a blessing after months without a bra that fit properly. The cups have elastic lace which makes them fit both my larger and smaller breast without wrinkling or spillage. It doesn't do much for shape or lift, however (I like the profile a Freya Deco gives, so this is a little natural for my tastes). Overall, though, so comfortable and definitely high quality.

Gore: Comfortable, tacks, good spacing, height fine.
Cups:
* Give a pleasantly round shape.

* Top of cup smooth (because so much breast tissue is outside the wires).
* Bottom of cup wrinkles.

* too far apart, slip
* adjust short enough
Comfort & Fit Summary
* Band too big, cups too small.
