I ordered this bra because i thought it was a copy of one I already have that i LOVE. the problems came when i tried it on. the fit was not horrible but the main problem caused other problems. The fabric of the cup was largely made with Polyeurathane, which gave it a plastic feel rather than a comfortable fabric. This meant that instead of being able to have the cup stretch slightly to fit my breast in a normal fabric bra, the cups were slightly too rigid and had empty spaces on the inside. It fit pretty comfortably if I put it on the first or second hook, but that was not enough for me to keep it. I'm exchanging it for another Fantasie because the cup shape normally fits me.

It's hard to review this bra because the cups are way too big for me! They look like half-deflated balloons. If I'd done more research before trying this out, I'd know these bras are too deep for me.

This bra seems to fit a lot better after a few minutes of wear- I think my boobs just needed to settle into it. I have very soft breasts, so moulded cups tend to cut into them unless they're absolutely the perfect fit. This bra isn't perfect, but it's definitely serviceable and it's pretty comfortable too!

I do get a bit of quadboobing and there's an odd empty space under my boobs where the cups want to collapse, but it's not visible under a shirt, which is what I need.

Pros:
T-shirt bra! Yay!
Comfortable and supportive.

Cons:
Fit issues mentioned above!
Straps and back feel like they might stretch over time.

Since I had a touch of quadraboob in the 34G, and the band was too big, I thought I'd sister size down & go up a cup. Boy howdy, is this a deep cup. The band isn't all that firm for a 32, though.
This model is so consistent; it's really admirable. I bought 2 (lightly used) and they fit exactly the same.

This was my first Fantasie bra and my staple bra for a while, but Fantasie's seamed bras won me over, and I now only wear this bra to work and only when wearing knits. This bra definitely does a good job of staying invisible under T-sirts and knits and is great for modesty. It is fairly comfortable and fits OK. The band and center gore fit well and are comfortable. The straps adjust to my small frame and the bra gives good lift. It is not a very pretty bra, but since it is a T-shirt bra that's expected. I think that this bra is ... just not a good fit for my breasts . I usually wear a 30ff in Fantasie bras, but the 30FF cups are way too big and the 30F cups fit better, but I end up with an armpit roll, even when I work on bringing all of the breast tissue forward and fitting it all in the cup. I think part of the problem is that the cup does not come up very high on the sides and I have a lot of breast tissue on the sides. It has a slight minimizing rounding effect that I don't like. It also is not as good at controlling my jiggly breasts as Fantasie's Savannah and Vivienne bras.

Update: The band on this bra stretched very quickly (faster than on my Freya bras) 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. Another problem I noticed over time is that my soft breast tissue tended to "escape" from the bra as I moved during the day. This is a problem that I have encountered with most molded bras. Also, since trying Panache and Cleo bras, I realize that Fantasie bands are much larger and stretchier.

- Band feels tight to me, but I can fit 2 fingers
- Underwire seems too wide (about an inch wider than my breast, into my armpit, but not digging in because it is relatively low)
- Straps also seem too wide, and dig into the front of my armpit/shoulder when I move my arms forward
- Cups are clearly too big (visibly wrinkling all over and with obvious space within the cup), but the top of the cup lies relatively flat
- Gore seems about right, against my sternum but not uncomfortably so

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.

This bra really doesn't fit me -- I completely spill out and over the top half -- but it's extremely comfortable (wouldn't wear it outside of the house, of course).

Its fit on me poses an unusual paradox: the band width and width and placement of the cups fit perfectly, yet the top portion I completely don't fit. And while I completely overflow it, yet still something about the padded shape manages to wrinkle a bit around the center of the cups (not quite as pronounced in pictures as in person).

For someone with my narrow shoulders and ribcage, the band and cup width are perfect. However, I ... would need a lot more material in the cup. Since I would have to stay with a 32 bandwidth, I guess I would need 2-4 cup sizes larger? Probably the better bet is that even if they made it that large (I don't think they do?), I am guessing that it would not fit my build.

It doesn't poke me anywhere despite how it looks; it is very comfortable and the only thing I find uncomfortable about it is the feeling of spilling out over the top. But it is so nice to have cups that don't go halfway around my ribcage or point outward when I don't; the smaller cup width gives better support than an overlarge one (although I am not familiar with how widespread that problem might be or how many people have that in common with me)

Pros: The bra itself looks really nice and they look gorgeous on the right person. It feels sturdy without feeling binding or uncomfortable. The width proportions hit me in the right places.

Cons: The padding seems to be an unusual shape. I usually fill out various sizes and shapes of padded bras even if they don't quite fit me, but this one always partly wrinkles no matter how I adjust. For me the center gore being nowhere near my sternum and my completely not fitting the top portion of the cup make it a nonstarter, but I think it would be good for people who have smaller ribcages and higher, rounded shapes, but not so heavy on the top half(?). They might not be soft enough for some people. I didn't find it rough but I didn't find it soft, either.

Bought this "used" at what I thought had to be too large a cup size: 32I. It does NOT fit me; the cups are way too small although everything else feels properly aligned (small shoulders/close together/large/full/round).

It seems to align properly for me everywhere, but the upper cups don't work for my physique even for this kind of style.

The bra is quite comfortable, surprisingly, since I'm falling out of it.

--I am not sure whether the qualtiy/comfort/appearance ratings are to refer to the bra itself or how it is on me. I found it fairly good quality, incredible comfort (though not as soft as some people like), and it was way too small on me but I thought the bra itself looked nice -- does that mean I should have put "bra appearance: meh" for how it is on ME or "good" because it, itself, looks nice?

Wore this bra for a full day and was in a lot of pain by the end, I think mostly due to a too tight band. The bottoms of the cups are too shallow as well.
