Fantasie Women's Smoothing Moulded Full Cup Bra 4500

I was fitted as a 36H US, 36H European, 36FF UK. I have a very round shaped breast, the same width at the chest wall as at the nipple, and a rounded profile. (TMI? Yes, sorry. But it helps to know a bra reviewer's shape to compare how a bra might fit you! It's information I look for in other reviews.) The bra seems very lightweight for a full figure bra; it is more supportive than you might think, but not supportive enough. Part of the problem is the back only has two hooks, so on me, having the band snug enough for support means I get back fat over the band and under/behind the arm; on a more slender woman, this may not be an issue. But still, I prefer a wider back strap with more hooks. The cup is unlined and quite thin; I expected this to be an issue, because I am "nipply" at all times, but there was no show through under a fairly thin t-shirt. I felt this ran true to size, but the shape wasn't quite right for me. I filled up the cup fine, but couldn't adjust the hooks/straps/my breasts so that the center was flat against my chest. But there was still some unused cup at the very bottom, so it just isn't the right shape for my shape. (I can't explain it more clearly.) Also, the straps are stretchy. I realize the support mainly comes from the band, but I truly think stretchy straps have no place on a full-figure bra. I hate to bounce. It was very comfortable, and it gave a nice round shape under my shirt, but I'm sending it back. Fast shipping and great service from Amazon and Breakout Bras, thank you!

I wanted a black bra that would still provide lift but made it possible to wear button downs. This bra fits the bill. I will say that it does not look as good with looser (re: no delineation of form), sleeveless tops that have a high neckline because while this bra provides separation and lift, it my breasts are positioned farther apart than I normally prefer. It still keeps them within the frame of my body, which is what you want in a bra, but I do feel wider up top if I wear the above-mentioned tops. I could be having this issue because I decided to try a 30G instead of my normal 32F since whenever I check a calculator, it recommends the former size. The band feels good at a 30, but the cup might not be quite right. This is probably good evidence that you should always try on bras or their brands in-store before ordering online with a vendor that doesn't have the best return policy. If I had ordered this bra strictly through Amazon with Prime shipping, I might have returned it for a different size just to check if it was the bra itself or the fit. Overall though, great bra, well-made, and attractive. I will buy Fantasie bras in the future.

Another Great Fantasie Bra! I've been wearing the 4510 and 4520 for about 20 years. They're the only Fantasie bras I'd ever worn. After breast reduction surgery I went from a 32F to a 32D. I thought that I'd try a different Fantasie bra and this one really delivers. Like the others, it has great support. It's true to size. I like how the straps angle in toward my neck a little which will allow me to wear tank tops in the summer without having my bra straps show. Some reviewers complained that the bra is a little revealing because the cup material isn't thick enough. So far I haven't noticed it. But, this is winter and I'm wearing lots of layers over the bra which is black. I'll probably know more about that in the summertime when I wear the tan bra with thinner tops. But if it's a problem I'll just buy the Nippies nipple covers from Amazon that some reviewers have bought. It sounds like the perfect solution. I'm really glad that I took the chance and ordered this bra!

I love Fantasie's balcony bra, and thought I'd try this. I went up a size in band, and maybe should have gone down a cup size. The band is still snug, and while I fill the cups, they are a bit loose. They have a natural look, so if you're a big busted gal and want to be lifted, this isn't for you. Also, while there is full coverage, (not sheer fabric), you can still show through, as the fabric isn't thick, if you know what I mean. Straps were a bit tight, and I found myself wanting to change bras when I got home. But I like the smoothing look, and will definitely use this bra.

This is my new favorite bra!I am very large (34I) and this bra not only comes in a large enough size (hard enough to accomplish that) - but is very comfortable and keeps my girls lifted and separated. The cups are smooth, which means you can wear under anything without fear of it showing through your shirt.I love this bra so much that when I was nursing, I took it to my seamstress and had her convert it to a nursing bra, so I could continue to wear it,throughout that time.Good quality, too. With proper washing (cold water, hand wash cycle, gentle soap) - it will easily last me a year + before I have to replace it. I can't say enough good things about this bra - but I can tell you that I have been buying 3 of them (one in each color), every year for the past 5 years. That's how much I love it!

I love this bra! I'm an older woman, 5'2" and weigh 160 lbs with a 32" band width making it difficult to find a comfortable bra. This bra holds my girls perfectly, no over top bulging. The cups are not padded to prevent nipple see through, so I bought Nippies Skin Reusable Matte Silicone Nipple Cover Pasties NON-ADHESIVE and issue solved! It's nice to go through the day comfortable and confident I have the support I need with no see through.Before purchasing this bra I wore the Fantasie Smoothing Underwire T-Shirt Bra, which fit okay. My complaint (for my body build) is the straps would slide off my shoulder and the cups, although well padded for no see through, tended to push my girls over the top of the cup.

I'm a size 38H so I ordered the 38FF size. It fits just fine. It is quite snug and smooth, which I find to be good things in a bra. However, it does come up pretty high so I have to be careful about the v-neck shirts I wear but mostly about tank tops. The cups are not molded which is less bulk but also less support. Don't get me wrong, it is quite supportive but not quite in the realm of LeMystere's Tisha or anything.

As these bras are no longer being made, pleased to find this one. I always buy this bra, have been for years. So disappointed to find they are no longer being manufactured, so was a bonus to find this one on Amazon. It fits well and as I am small in the back the 32D is just right. No extra padding either which I don't need ! lovely smooth shape under tops.

This bra was advertised as an Esme bra by Fantasie. It is nothing like previous Esme bras bought from other sellers. It is the most uncomfortable bra I have had in a long time. There is no cushioning over the back hooks just the material they are stitched to. As you wear this bra the metal hooks dig into your back.

Been wearing this style of bra for 15 years now and finding most places no longer stock it so looked on good old faithful Amazon.Was happy to find this stockist reasonably priced plus free delivery.Had the problem of not being able to try it but it arrived in a couple of days and was a perfect fit so reordered straight away .

Excellent quality , as described seam free, perfect for wearing under sheer material or close fitting dresses, but found my size 30 ff was too big in the cup . Excellent response from supplier very prompt refund .

It is the best bra I have ever hadIt is smooth seamless and unpadded
