So there is molded and then there's molded. It is kind of excessive. Not super comfortable, although that could be a fit thing. I personally find it ugly. The fabric is just not my favorite. It isn't soft and it has a shape it wants to be (more than other molded bras). I'm pretty sure this size should be too big for me but it is actually hard to tell in this particular bra. Not a good one to determine fit.

I would never have expected a bra with pre-shaped cups to fit me... but this one actually does!
In fact, it's the best-fitting bra I've ever had: bottom-heavy projection, enough separation between the cups, the distance between the straps is narrow enough for my shoulder width... LOVE IT *w*

Overall seems like a fine bra, but the wireless style just didn't fit me well. Band on this 34E is significantly bigger than my Panache Envy 34E - recommend sizing down. Cup size I think would have been fine if this was a wireless with the gore tacked to the ribcage. As it was, my breast just didn't seem to fill the cups well. Maybe if you're already close-set, this would be fine for you. Projection seems good though, as the band seemed to sit ok in my IMF on the tightest hook.

This is a pretty black stretch lace-and-mesh bra and the soft stretchy material is comfortable to put on. Unfortunately, my soft, saggy breasts need more structure than the sheer cups provide, and the fit doesn't work with my narrow, close-set and projected breasts. The bra gives more of an east-west shape to my breasts, and doesn't provide enough support.

My first time trying a padded half-cup style. It feels comfortable when I first put it on, the fabric is soft and smooth and the cups softly padded. But almost immediately the straps start to slip right off my shoulders, and no matter how much I adjust and tighten the straps, they keep slipping off. This is unusual since I have fairly wide shoulders. Looking more closely at the fit, there is a lot empty space at the side of the cup, and the wires are a little too wide under my arm. Also, after a few minutes wearing this bra the underwires slide down from my infra-mammary fold. So the cup shape is a mismatch for my boobs, cups are too shallow, especially at the gore and wire, but I didn't notice at first since all my soft breast tissue gets pushed upwards and towards the sides. So the bra is a shape mismatch for me, I need more projection at the wire and narrower cups.

Seems like a nice high quality bra, I'm just still figuring out my size

LOVE this cobalt blue color, but the fit and shape of the bra are sub-optimal for me.

I was hoping this would be similar to Fauve's Chloe half cup (Fauve Chloe Vertical Seam Bra (0311) that I loved but never found in a G cup.
Alas, though Fantasie and Fauve were sister companies, this Sienna fits a bit differently than Chloe.

It's not as open op top, a bit more 'restrictive' and it gives a bit of a funny shape. Somewhat square, if you will?
It is definitely not projected enough for me -lots of orange in a glass going on- and it gives me some quad.
Also, the back band is quite narrow for this size and it's not so flattering IMO the way it goes straight across; instead of my preferred 'ballet back' (U-shaped where the straps connect).

The color and design are lovely though!
Would work well on someone with less projection and a and less FOT shape.

I previously reviewed this bra in black--see 32J - Fantasie » Alex Side Support Bra (9152) for my full review.

This is one hard-working bra. Unfortunately It's not a shape match for me. There is insufficient immediate projection at the wire, resulting in a myriad of fit issues. But I love the 2 rubberized strips keeping the band up - it stays in place super well through a full day of wear. I've misplaced the straps so didn't include pics of them, but others have included those pics. This is a 34F and I'm now a 32GG so you can see it's just not a good fit for size either.

Not a good fit. The band is the biggest issue with this one. The gore floats, the top of the cup causes quadding. Otherwise the cup seems to be filled out fairly well, though tight. It looks like it fits well but it feels like it really does not. After this bra, and my experience with another Fantasie bra, I don't think I'll turn to this brand again. Both times the bras have been too-tight fitting and wrinkling. Not my favorite style either. Gives a round shape.

Very comfortable to put on, but soon it feels like the band wants to slide down on my torso. No matter how much I try to adjust my boobs within the cups, there are wrinkles at the bottom of the cup.
My shape is narrow, even, projected with average-to-short roots, close-set with lots of upper-center fullness and soft, saggy breast tissue.

Seeing a weird gap fold at the gore, notably on the bigger side. Also noticing top gaping at top of cups as I lean forward. I also feel as though the cups might be too projected for me, and it seems that the gore might be too wide, which is causing the gap folding at gore.

I so wanted this to be my perfect bra, but alas it wasn't. It wasn't the bras fault though, my tatas just aren't full enough to fill the cups. I loved the feel and look of this bra, the band was snug, but not constricting. The wires were a good width and height, so if I bent over I wasn't being stabbed or getting poked in my armpit. The straps are very adjustable, so no matter your height you should be able to find the right length to suit you.

This bra is a one of my favorites...comfortable, supportive enough and beautiful all in one...this is the bra I wear 70% of the time, just because its so comfortable and supportive enough.

This is not the right size. Even up a size from 30F the cups still don't have enough bottom depth. See my submission for the style in 30F for other notes on the fit and style.

This doesn't fit. The bottom depth of the cup is not projected enough, while the top of the cups are not filled out. Top edge of the cup lies flush against my chest (Do I have short or tall roots?? I'm not clear on that yet). The cups are very full coverage on me, going quite high up my chest. The fabric is alright, the color and cut of this bra makes it seem a bit frumpy to me, and the lace is more "mature". That said the lace is pretty, and I like the lace edging around the bottom of the cups and up the straps. I don't know if the embroidery would show under clothes.

Such a lovely fabric: white floral with shimmery white embroidery. The fabric at the top of the cup flares a bit, so it looks like there's some gaping. The cup does seem to fit, just not on my smaller side, so not ideal for asymmetry. The band is pretty stretchy so I had to size down from my usual 32FF. The biggest problem for me is the width of the gore. I'm close set, so I need a narrower gore than this one gives.

This is my first listing; I will be re-homing my entire beautiful bra collection -- nothing fits after breast cancer treatment! This basque is super comfortable; good side support in the cups, soft lining, nice stretchy back and sides. Holds everything nicely tucked in, but not constricting.

Updated on Nov 24, 2020 Flag this

Overall fit is ok. It's a cup size or two large for now, but I'll probably grow more while pregnant and breastfeeding. The band is pretty firm. I'm extra sensitive to that right now since I'm ~20 weeks pregnant. I think it may stretch out with a couple wears. Normally these wires would be too high for me, but I have a lot more tissue these days. Not too wide, plenty of depth at the wire, I feel pretty contained.

I don't like the shape, but that may be because it's too big on me. Not enough lift or shape for my FOB boobs. I can see my nipples through a shirt super easily, which I don't get as much in unlined Cleos (my only other unpadded bras).
