    30GG

    Didn't fit

    I like this bra, but it does not fit.
    Band: a little bit big. I am in between 30 and 32, so 30 was perfect for me. 3 hooks for a secure support.
    Straps: not too wide set, but the straps themselves are wide.
    Wires: very wide, too wide for me (I usually like wide wires), but still comfortable.
    Cups: quite shallow, there was a little bit of empty space at the bottom and the sides. The cups are wide set. I am not sure why, but I had kind-of quad-boob, I believe its because my breast are tall?... It is not due to spillage, but the top of the cup cuts in my breast tissue
    Fits more rounded than other Fantasie bras.

    I will return this bra.

    Very stretchy band - sister-size down. Pattern discreet enough to wear under a white shirt.

    32J

    Didn't fit

    I find this bra to be amazingly comfortable, but I suspect that part of it is that its a somewhat sloppy fit? This is not a 'wow what support' kind of bra. It certainly holds my breasts higher than they are without a bra, and higher than with my old cotton Bare Necessities - and its almost as comfortable. But its not an 'oomph' bra.

    Its hard to find bras in the 32J range that will handle my big size difference with grace. Jana's gore tilts, so that the gore is not against my chest on my bigger side, but it is against it on ... my smaller side. Of course, this gives my bigger size a little more room - this bra does not quad-boob it at all.

    The wires are very weak. This is of course a big part of why the gore is so easily able to twist. But the wires are also rediculously wide . . . it goes way, way past the side of my breast. I mean, it almost goes entirely past my arm pit? For whatever reason, it does not poke me (I'm grateful!). It also is probably part of why I dont get quad-boob - my bigger boob just migrates further under my armpit. No scoop-and-swoop can possibly happen in this bra!

    So, I'd say this is an iffy quality but comfortable bra. Boring visually, if not slightly ugly. The seams are minimal enough that they are not distracting under a t-shirt. I mean, you can see a line, but hey, everyone knows you are wearing a bra. Its not a big line, just a subtle one. There is a little bit of pointiness but it seems like you can only see it from just the right angle.

    I like this bra very much. It seems to fit me in the cups almost perfect.My only complaint is that it has only 2 hooks and not 3 .It has side support which I like.

    Purchased in Nov of 2014, this red Jana and another in nude were my first and only Fantasie bras. They were both more supportive, comfortable and bounce controlling than the Curvy Kate's and Flirtelle's that I bought around the same time and as a result, the Jana's lasted longer in my rotation. The fit and comfort of the CK's and Flirtelle's were close but the Jana's were much much better at controlling bounce, especially on a brisk walk. I no longer have any of these as my Bravissimo bras are much better in every way for me.

    This nude Jana was purchased in late 2014 along with another in red. Both were my first try of Fantasie, which seemed to lean towards more matronly bras at that time. I liked the way Jana put my boobs front and center but bounce control was not what I liked or needed. The cups were a little small but KK was not an option for pretty much the entire Fantasie line. The straps were reasonably comfortable and sturdy but did not minimize/eliminate bounce. Fwiw, I got a great deal of unintended cleavage, more than any other bra I had tried up to that point in time.

    I moved on ... from the Fantasie bras as they have been a disappointment that has led to apprehension on trying anything new from them, at least in terms of online shopping. Of course, I moved on from these bras long before I understood the benefit of adding bras and measurements to this database. An instore visit would be best providing they have my size in stock, which is definitely a rarity. I had also tried a number of Curvy Kate's and Flirtelle's with even less success. I was in tears with these bras as expectations were high. Thankfully I discovered Bratabase and eventually Bravissimo and have bought over 40 bras from them in the past 6 years.

    The cup is from 4 section. Under the arm it is low cutted. Therefore the sape is definitelly not to me.
    The cup is very wide as usually the bra from Freya or Goddess.

    Jana 30K
    I am adding this bra for data/informational purposes only. This Bra is not owned by me at the time of addition to the database.

    Jana is a side support unpadded underwire bra. It is a black lace over beige tulle. There are 4 parts to the cup, 3 vertical and 1 horizontal. While the pattern masks some, this one is still sheer and darker nipples will show through. Overall, this is a full coverage bra.

    The band measures 24.3” to a max of 31” with 3 hooks and 3 rows of eyes.

    Cup Depth as measured by:
    1 Hovering the cup between the knees, then placing the tape measure into ... the cups without any resistance.
    This measurement is: 14”

    2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
    This measurement is: 16”

    I feel these two figures give you a general idea of the minimum and maximum depth that the cup can accommodate, just like the flat and stretched band measurements do with bands. Since Bratabase only has one cup field, I enter the larger of the two, as it’s this larger number that determines if a cup is going to fit me or not since I am on the max end of the cup scale, but do realize that some may need the lower number to determine fit for their needs, so I will always include both figures in the reviews for full disclosure.

    The cups didn’t feel stretchy at all, but there’s definitely some give to it.
    This one was too big in the cup for me. I would need a 30JJ. I was not fond enough of it to buy it in additional sizes though.

    The straps are also wide set and the curve of the cup side is too tall, and the wires wrap too far back. If the cups fit better then the wires wouldn’t be pulled as far back, but the cup curve and wide set straps are definitely for someone who has broad shoulders and a taller root.

    30GG

    Didn't fit

    Me: Narrow roots, narrow shoulders, evenly round, lots of immediate projection, slightly FoB, splayed, left-heavey by more than a cup size, like a tight band. Panache, Freya size 30GG

    Unsurprisingly, cutting in along the top of the cup.

    One of the few bras with comfortable strap set width.

    No side boning and shape a bit flat on each plain - not exactly pointed, but lower cup like two flat plains meeting at the seam rather than one continuous round.

    wires on the wide side, for me, but not as bad as Panache.

    Good side support and good immediate projection at the vertical seam, but side support cuts into it.

    not a good enough fit for me
