After one day of wear, I've found that this bra is comfortable and supportive. I didn't have any problems with the underwires digging into the space between my boobs which I occasionally have with non-plunge bras.
The seams are pretty prominent, more so than my other seamed bras.

Out of my molded bras, this one is my favorite. It gives a little lift and is a little more centered (like when you do the elbow test, it doesn't push anything in). I do get a little gap at the top by the strap but understand sometimes that happens with molded bras. I like the shape of it.

It's comfortable but the black does run a bit smaller than the white, I'd say the white colourway is more comfortable for me.

Fits well. Great lift. Still expands past my silhouette, making me look larger. Too much separation at cleavage, my chest is completely flat until the cups begin. Cups begin very high, can be seen over my tank tops which are not very low cut. Scalloped strap edges. Three hooks.

Looks ok and feels great. Band not quite right enough for the amount of lift I like.

i love crossover bralettes! but of the ones i own, this one is the most disappointing. unfortunately the fabric is just too stretchy to provide for larger breasts. but that doesn't mean i don't like the bra - the quality and appearance are excellent! i will still be wearing this bra to sleep, but it's just my last choice.

Scalloped strap edges. Could be promising, with a rounded shape and cups high enough on the sides to contain my armpit boob. The bra almost points outwards, though, eliminating all cleavage. Top edge of cup rests nearly flat against my sternum with very little breast tissue being pushed up. Would like more lift and less separation. I returned this bra.

Scalloped strap edges. Barely any armpit spillage, but wire appears too short horizontally. I returned this bra.

Scalloped strap edges to prevent strap adjustments from slipping. Too much side and quad boob spillage. I returned this bra.

Scalloped strap edges to prevent strap adjustment from slipping. Too much side boob and quad boob. Too pointy of a shape, but maybe could be better with larger cup size. I returned this bra.

I’ve owned the reflect spacer for around 1 month and find it heavily in my rotation. It’s very comfortable, and the top of the cups are cut in a way that limits strap gap for my shorter roots. There is enough projection at the wires and less at the apex, which suits my shape. I also love the color and the pattern on the band!
Overall I’ve been really happy with the Fantasie styles I’ve tried, for unlined the Fantasie Reflect Side Support Bra (FL101801) is one of my favorites as well.
————————
About my shape/fit:
My recommended starting point was 32DD/E or 34D/DD. I teeter on the edge ... of both band size and cup size, depending on time of the month, brand, etc. I would describe my shape as horizontally center full, slightly wide set, lots of soft tissue from weight loss. I think I’m even fullness but functionally full on bottom. I have immediate projection that I need to accommodate, but overall I seem to be fairly shallow-average in terms of projection. My roots seem to be average-narrow and a bit short (at least in terms of filling out the tops of most cups)

This bra does wonders for my bottom heavy breasts. It gives me the best lift ever! It's not the most comfortable bra though. I feel like the band is tight for me. I could be way off though. I also don't like the lace for an everyday bra because you can see the lace through tops.

This bra doesn’t fit me anymore, but worked fine when it did. Nothing exciting, not quite the right shape or fit, but it did the job.
I intended this as my regular go to bra, but I don’t like how the texture is obvious through my shirts, even more so than my unlined lacier bras. I do like that it is pretty lightweight and comfortable in the summer.
The bra does not really do anything for the shape of my boobs. It doesn’t provide me any lift and almost makes me look flatter. It also gives me a slightly pointy shape even though I completely filled the cup before ... I lost weight. I usually prefer a lifted and rounded look, so it is out of the norm for me. The gore was higher than I typically go for, and I found it uncomfortable. The straps easily slide off even if I tighten them, which gets annoying quickly. This bra helped me learn very quickly that this type of full cup bra is not my preferred and does not flatter me.
Overall, this bra is fine, but doesn’t check a lot of my preferred boxes. I was very ashamed of my body when I bought this, but now that my confidence is slowly bouncing back, I admittedly prefer to accentuate my hourglass body. This bra has the opposite effect. It is now too big for me, and I don’t intend on purchasing in my new smaller size.

HOW IT FEELS: Fairly comfortable. I think the gore is high enough to not bother me too much. This bra seems like a better shape match for FOB and/or somewhat more projected. For my softer tissue it gave me a torpedo shape. Not the worst under a tight fitting shirt, but very pointy under flowy tops. Need a bit more shallow and open on top cups.
ABOUT ME: Tall roots, very close set (less than a pinkie width between breasts), slightly center full, even vertical fullness (possibly functionally FOT due to tall roots). Average for projection, root width, and tissue softness/firmness. I think my tissue is soft ... enough to where shallower bras can work ok for me if they're more open on top, or taller cups.
BEST FITS: High apex and plunges

I am in between 32DD and 32E, tried the 30F however the cups are too large in this sister size (and probably the 32E) - I tried this on because it was in stock at Nordstrom. My snug measurement is 32 and tight 31.4 and this band did feel tighter than I would prefer, but the cups did not seem to be stretched / warped. I am going to try the 32DD, but this style might be a shape mismatch.

So far a great fit for me! I will update when I’ve worn it an entire day.
Edit: I’ve worn this bra the entire day for two days in a row. The gore digs into my sternum and I don’t like how I nip out (I am a teacher).

This is my new Favourite bra. it is my first fantasie Bra in Wildflower. so pretty I had to try it and wow! what a fit I have the 36HH on the loosest Hook. I am only 5ft and very projected. I often find baggy cups at the top or wires and apex's that are far to high. This one is perfection for me. I am a convert to Fantasie and will be buying more.

I like the main fabric on this and it is durable. The color works well for me. The lace on mine seems to fray a bit, which is bothersome.

I bought this bra from a local boutique before discovering Bratabase & ABTF ~ 2 years ago. My fitter was new, and to her credit, suggested I return for a 2nd fitting with a more experienced fitter when I expressed interest in buying several swimsuits. I had already spent > $500 on several bras & 1 Brazilian brief.
The fitter told me to wear my bras on the middle or tightest hook from the start. 😔. When I returned for my swimsuit fitting, the more experienced fitter remeasured me & *diplomatically* suggested I was closer to a 28FF or 30F.
I digress. The bra is beautiful. ... The only time I wore it was to model it for my husband & today to remind me of the fit. If interested, this bra mixes well with cowboy boots & large silver/turquoise earrings…🔥🔥🔥
Even set on the tightest hook, the band is riding up my back.
My younger girlfriend has the same bra. Like many younger women, she's concerned about seams/texture showing through the fabric. Shucks! If I were her age, I would get a thin, sheer white/beige blouse & pair it with this beauty. Add the cowboy boots, mini denim skirt, and earrings - let’s dance! 💃🎶🎤🤠
I will hand wash & air dry, then return to measure.
Edit: I returned to measure after hand-washing & air-drying after wearing it for 6 hours. Of the three 32-size band bras I entered, this is the only one I envision keeping. Mind you, I need to wear it on the tightest clasp, but I do like it. It provides a nice round shape and is so comfortable! Perhaps I will look into having the band altered.
