By no means a small bra but too small for me. Tried it as it was going cheap.
Despite this it is great quality and looks pretty nice for a big bra and seems to be supportive.

Hi Annie,
Yes I do. The only KK bra is the Panache bra which should fit ok but I'm not sure whether I want an unsupportive bra! How do you know they will soon have an L cup bra?
Hi Tia,
I have received a mail from customer service. The last time I went in Bravissimo Oxford Circus shop in November 2009 the fitter said me that the KK cup (36KK Harmony bra by Panache) is little small for me. She said me Bravissimo will send me mail to inform about new KK and L cup.
So Charlotte from customer services team informs me 2 month ago that for the new winter collection they will have 3 bras in KK cup and 1 bra in L cup.
KK cup: Harmony bra by Panache, Melody bras by Panache and Alana bra by Bravissimo
L cup: Alana bra by Bravissimo
You can see on the internet shop that these new sizes are due early December.
Bye
I used to own several Kara bras in 36K. They were lovely and of very good quality. Very supportive its was a great pity whenI out grew the cup size over a year ago, soI can not comment on sizing. They were my favourites.
I received this from another bratabaser. The bra does its job just fine, and as with the Cally, I love the elastic straps. Thank goodness the straps are fully adjustable as I have the sliders at the tops of my shoulders and if they were tightened any further they'd be on their way down to my chest. The gore does not tack, maybe I should stick to bras with shorter gores? There's no poking, which is nice. I love the bows with the little matching roses in the middle. The band is quite tight on me. The side boning is sitting closer to my back than I think it should. Overall, I'm satisfied with this bra, but I want more, MORE!
Update: My boobs seem to have shrunk? settled? I now have a smooth line at the top where I once had spilling.

Band is nice and snug. VERY high though, and tends to poke me more and more through the day. Also cuts into my arm at the front.
The cup is good though, completely encompasses me while for balcony bras I need a bigger cupsize.
Oh, and it is very very pretty.

THIS IS A GREAT BRA. Wonderful support, and I got it on sale! I am so happy with this bra. I have had problems in the past finding bras that fit, but for once, this finally worked out. I was alarmed at my size, since I had lost weight, I figured my breasts would be smaller...but I just went down in band size, up a cup. It doesn't poke, its extremely comfortable, and super sexy! It didn't stretch out on the first wash, although my secret to keeping a great bra? Use a salad spinner (I also used specific bra detergent). The only con is, if you get it full price it can be super expensive, otherwise...GO FOR IT!

I usually don't like full cups, they seem to keep my breasts apart but...I'm breastfeeding at the moment, breast can get quite heavy and full cup bra gives me great support and comfort.
I was surprised about the tightnest of the bra too, for 34 it fits very nice and smug at the loosest hook.

I did not have high hopes for this bra, I have had very bad luck with UK brands recently and Fantasie is the only brand I ever had a shape issue with before reaching my current size. But! It was only about $20, so I had to try it anyway.
This is the weirdest fitting bra I have ever had. It is SO shallow. The cups are very wide and not projected at all. It gaped and wrinkled all around but was actually smooshing my boob straight back into my rib cage. The wire did not sit in the right place at all and the center gore gaped terribly. Somehow, the outside of the bottom of the cup was so badly not supporting my boob that it was folded over as if i had just placed a napkin in my IMF. The top of the cup also had a weird thing happening with the fabric, it seemed like my boob was pulling the lining down but not the outer fabric, so it was bunching up oddly.

The Fantasie Kara is a lovely bra that's well constructed. I would encourage a color choice other than the white, as it tends to show through most white or beige colored clothing. I'm a bit too big for the bra now, otherwise it's a keeper.

The band was very tight and uncomfortable. The cups were OK, but I think the wires were a bit too wide and came up way too high under my armpits causing some chafing. The gore sat away from my sternum a tiny bit but not bad. The straps were comfy. Very pretty bra, I just wish it fit better.

too big, gaps and wrinkles all over, cups far too wide, pretty much on my back
also quite tight on the back
positive is the straps adjust all the way so can go short enough for me

Good bra for work, feels stable with a simple shape and straps aren't too bothersome. However, this size cuts in way high up (how??) while the next size up is too large.

Hello Tia,
Do you know Bravissimo? If you live in UK I think you can find a Bravissimo shop near from you. They have some models in KK cup and soon in L cup.
