My favorite bra! The height of the center gore and of the wing are very comfortable for my petite frame.

This one worked really well for me. The shape suits me and it works out well for me, except that I've outgrown it now. It's comfortable and I never had issues with slipping/falling out of it while swimming. Great swimsuit top https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

This will be my first padded/moulded cup ever. I was actually at Nordstrom trying on the Freya Deco and lamenting that it didn't conform to my breasts like a soft cup and one of the store clerks brought me this one (she was just trying to find any and all bras they had around 30FF/30G. I feel like this is a wonderful compromise between conforming to my breasts and having a little padding. And the color is pretty wonderful as well.

As far as fit is concerned, the only less-than-perfect thing I've noticed is that on deep inhales, there is a slight quadboob effect. This most likely is ... caused by the fact that I am a little full on top. Additionally, I'm typically a 28G, so I'd wager that these tend to run small in the band (although not super small). This fits pretty well to begin with on the loosest hooks, but we'll see if I have to tighten it as things continue.

All in all, I'm very pleased with this bra (and pleased that I got to try it on before buying it!).

Note: I do find that I either looker bigger or just wider in this bra than in a soft cup bra. That's certainly not ideal, but I don't thiiiink it will be a deal breaker. We'll see.

Slightly shallow, not crazily so. I need a Really lot of projection, so on most other people it would probably be fine. Not too thick of lining, about the same as Freya half-cups. Pretty true to size, both in cups and band. Nice, thick but still pretty straps. I really like how this has a sheer lace upper. Reminds me of Natori Feathers. I wish this came in above FF :/

Very comfortable, and good for women who have established breastfeeding and HATE nursing bras, like me. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> The stretchy fabric allows for breast size change during the day, and make it possible for you to move your breast in and out for a feeding. Unfortunately, the stretchiness can be a bad thing, since it stretches with wear and needs to be washed to regain its shape. But for comfort, it is excellent.

Also perfect for girls with narrow shoulders, it's the first non-convertible bra I've had that doesn't fall off my shoulders.

The only downside is that the stretchy cups don't provide the structure and cleavage that I usually expect from a bra, giving me a wide-set and matronly appearance. However, compared to nursing bras, it wins hands down. I'll have to wait to quit breastfeeding to wear my sexy bras again.

Thanks to Erica from A Sophisticated Pair for fitting me with this bra!

I bought this bra because I thought I needed a beige bra, and this was the only non molded one that came close to my skin tone. Then I realized I don't like beige bras, so I'm selling it.

The fit is good, it is consistent with my experience for 30 bands. It is good for full on bottom boobs, it does not cut in. The fabric is thick.

It gave me a pointy/perky shape.

The bra is supportive and gives good uplift. It gives me more cleavage than other Fantasie plunge bras such as the Vivienne and Savannah and is not quite as comfortable as those bras. The lower part of the bra is slightly padded, but this does not seem to matter other than to give additional support. The band felt a little tighter than my other Fantasie bras at first, but is still comfortable. The straps adjust to my small frame and the gore is low and does not dig into my close together breasts. This bra is less sophisticated but sexier than most of my other Fantasie bras and my husband really likes it. I believe the hot pink color increases it's sex appeal. This is more of a special occasion bra for me, not something for every day wear.

Update: The wires and gore on this bra became quite uncomfortable after a whole day wearing it. I am not sure why as I find other Fantasie bras quite comfortable.

The Fantasie Vivienne bra is a very supportive and beautiful bra. It is true to size compared to other Fantasie seamed bras. The band and straps fit well and are comfortable. The straps adjust down to my small frame. The cups come up quite high on the sides which helps hold all of my breast tissue and bring it forward, but not so high as to be uncomfortable and I am only 5'2". This bra gives great lift and a nice natural shape. While I don't find it pointy, it is not the completely rounded shape that some may prefer. The ... cups give enough coverage to keep my jiggly breast under control (this can be a problem for me with lower cut balcony/balconette bras). The only negative I have is that the center gore is a bit too high for my close together breasts and I can feel it digging at the end of the day. The bra may show under tight and thin T-shirts and knits, but unless I am at work, I no longer worry about this.

Update: The center gore was just too painful after wearing the bra an entire day. Also, the band on this bra stretched very quickly and I was soon wearing it on the tightest hook. I wear my bras once or twice a week and wash them by hand, so it was not due to normal wear. Since trying on Panache and Cleo bras, I realize that Fantasie bands are much looser and stretchier.

The Fantasie Savannah bra is one of my favorite bras. It is true to size compared to other Fantasie bras. It gives great support and lift. It gives a nice natural shape, which is not really pointy, but also not the rounded shape that some may prefer. While it looks sexy in a sophisticated way, it is appropriate to wear to work. It comes up quite high under the arms which helps to brings my wide breast tissue forward but, it is not so high as to be uncomfortable, even thought I am only 5'2". The band fits well and has not ... stretched much so far. The center gore is narrow and low enough that it doesn't dig into my close together boobs. This bra also does a great job of controlling my jiggly breasts. I have it in black and latte and both are very beautiful.
Update: The band on this bra stretched very quickly and I was soon wearing it on the tightest hook. This has happened with all of my fantasie bras. I wear my bras once or twice a week and wash them by hand, so it was not due to normal wear. Also, as the day goes on, my heavy breasts would push down on the bra and would make the bra sit lower than it should be while also make my breast seem less supported. Since trying Panache bras, I have realized that Fantasie bands are much looser and stretchier.

I wanted to love this bra, I really did. It's very comfortable, the fabric is silky and thin. It feels like you're wearing nothing at all, other than a snug band. My problem is the type of bra--I just can't do non-molded bras. My boobs look like crazy torpedoes and I can't wear this bra out. After walking around the house in it a couple times, I decided it just wasn't for me. I'd love to have it in a molded cup, though. It's really one of my most comfortable bras.

Tends to be a little pointy, but with a good swoop and scoop that mostly goes away. The fit of the cups is very finicky, from orange in a glass to perfect to quadboob to gaping space at the top with very minor adjustments to the straps. Once it's figured out, very comfortable. The nude color is great under white tops.

The fit of this bra is excellent, no spillage, snug band. However, it pushes the breasts out to the side so they seem wider than my body. From the side, it looks great, but from the front not to. Kept it as a comfort bra.

Updated on Nov 06, 2013 Flag this

It is a little uncomfortable on me because of the gore width and how far over the straps are (they go under my arms), but it mostly fits well as far as the size, possibly a little big for me. I've only had it a short time, but hopefully I can get used to it and make it comfortable for me.

This bra fits me slightly stangely. While the central gore lays flat at the top it bends away further down leaving a gap between the wire and my rib cage. The cups fit but the gore pushes slightly into my left breast and its placement means my left tissue falls into the middle. The bra is incredible comfortable though and I love the material used.

This bra fits perfectly! It's very comfortable and my breasts fill the cups great. Only annoying this is that the band tends to show through through most armholes

Updated on Aug 07, 2013 Flag this

This is actually the second Fantasie bra I have tried and I have noticed that these don't seem to fit the same as identical sizes in other brands. Some are at least close but not this one. I'm not sure if it is due to the moulded cup or just the plunge style but the cups on these gap far too much at the top and don't fill out on the bottom. The moulding also yields an egg-like shape, which isn't particularly appealing to me. The band is an okay fit but the gore does not tack at the top and yields quite a bit when leaning forward. I do like the simplicity in design of this bra, as well as the mostly mesh gore that makes it breathable. Too bad this sized so much differently than the other 30FF bras I've tried; this one is going back to the retailer.

This bra is much larger than my other 30FF bras. I have matching briefs available.

This is a pretty, practical bra but I don't think it's the best shape for close set, centre-full breasts on a narrow frame. I find the gore a bit too wide and the cup is just slightly too shallow. Mind you, I did size down in the cup (the size up was too big). The back is nicely firm but the look this bra gives my breasts is wider than I like.

Bought this by mistake, meant to purchase the Helena balcony. Whoops.

This bra would probably be great for longer more pendulous breasts as the cups are very deep.

Comfy band, gives great coverage but not for me.
