It's seamless and great under t shirts. It also does not add bulk. Submitted from TheUndies.com

I was very pleased with this bra. It fit very comfortably and had great shaping and lift. I usually prefer a bra with a thin foam molded cup, but this one did just as good a job and dries faster because of the fabric. I bought a second one and will likely buy more. BizProf

I love this bra. I have several in this style now, and I wear this style almost exclusively because it fits me so well and looks good under sweaters and t-shirts. It has a minimizing effect and great support and lift. Finding a bra in the right size and style has made a tremendous positive difference in my appearance. I feel it took at least a decade off my bust! Ann from Fort Wayne IN

I am thouroughly satisfied with my new bra! Being petite, it is often hard to get the proper cup size with the appropriate band size. Thank you, HerRoom! Karen from Albuquerque, NM

The underwire is already trying to dig a hole in my ribs. My last bra from this brand lasted 6 months (good for a big breasted gal like me) but this one has made it two days. Underwire is poking out through the fabric on both.

Fantasie Response: Please visit HerRoom's Bra Fitting Advice Page to help determine your proper fit and size. Another great seamless option from Fantasie is Fantasie Rebecca Molded Spacer Underwire Bra FL2024. It's constructed of spacer fabric that is very light and breathable. When choosing FL2024, please follow Tomima's Tip's, "Go down 1 cup size. This spacer foam will mold to your shape." Rachael from Dallas, tx

This bra fits very well (true to size) and is very comfortable. I also like the close set straps in the back, which help keep straps from slipping. The reason I am giving it 3 stars, is that this bra was listed in a search for contour cups. According to this site "Contour cups hold their shape, even when not worn. These cups have an underwire and are lined with a thin layer of foam or fiberfill lining that is molded into a specific shape." This bra has only a thin fabric for the cups. Not enough to prevent nipple show through. I am still keeping the bra, as at times I do like a thin fabric bra. I just wish I knew that ahead of time, as I was really looking for something with a bit of lining to prevent show-through.

Fantasie Response: Mae, thanks for pointing this out - you are correct that this bra is not a contour bra, but is rather simply a molded bra. This has since been corrected on the HerRoom website. Another great style from Fantasie is Fantasie Rebecca Molded Spacer Underwire Bra FL2024 in 32 D4. (Tomima's Tip "Go down 1 cup size. This light spacer foam will mold to your shape.") Fantasie Smoothing T-Shirt Bra FL4510 in 32 D4 is a great balcony frame. Offers a perkier silhouette and great modesty coverage. (Tomima's Tip, "This bra runs a little large in the cups. You may want to consider going down a cup size.") Mae from Western MA

it showed everything! the wire went up too high in the middle and rubbed, did not like it at all.

Fantasie Response: We are sorry to hear that this style did not work for you. Another great seamless style from Fantasie that you might want to try: Fantasie Seamless Molded Balcony Bra FL4520 in 32 D6. Keep in mind Tomima's Tip on this style - "The band on this style is running large. Consider going down a band size, and thus up a cup size (e.g., 38F should consider a 36FF).

The bra fits well, the straps are wide enough, and because the of the shape of the back, the straps stay in place. Generally a solid bra. However, "lightweight" and "breathable" in this case mean, "consists of light fabric" which means that the lift is less than extraordinary. I also suspect it will have a short shelf-life. It is, however, what it says it is. Sara from Binghamton/NY

Fist perfectly,(slightly higher across the top of the chest), than the Fantasie 4510. Love the colors (pink/red) would buy if more colors were available. Perfect for women who are average size and have a fuller natural breast. MsTBell from NY

This bra offers great support and is very comfortable to wear. It has a minimizing effect that is nice for the times when I want that. Collien from Crescent City, CA

This bra is well made, but it makes my breasts look too wide.The cups encased my breasts well, but I wear a 32HH which is the sister size of this bra. The breasts look as if they are placed too near to the sides of my arms. I need a seamless bra and this one could have been. I really need a seamless with a band size 32HH for support. I have returned and am exchanging.

Fantasie Response: Another great seamless style from Fantasie is Fantasie Rebecca Molded Spacer Underwire Bra FL2024 in 32 D3. (Tomima's Tip "Go down 1 cup size. This light spacer foam will mold to your shape.") Janet from Miami/FL/USA

This is a very comfortable bra which also gives SUPERB support! I am a short person, carrying a little extra weight. Living in a warm climate, I prefer bras that can lift and HOLD the girls UP, eliminating all sag and preventing sweat build-up. This bra does this, all while creating a nice, rounded, separated shape. The coverage is moderate, allowing me to wear it with lower cut tops. I ordered the nude color, which is invisible under light tops. I am going to get another in black! Mamaji from South Carolina

This bra is a minimizer. It doesn't say that in the description. Aside from that it is really comfortable and I LOVE the straps! They don't slip! I wish Fantasie would make the 4520 with straps like this. S.L. from Michigan

All around great bra, exchanging a not true to size bra I ordered for another one of these awesome, true to size comfortable, supportive bras!!!!!! And I can even get it in RED how cool is that!

I always have a hard time finding the right bra, and I was leery about this at first. When I received it I fell in love with it. It fits great and is extremely comfortable. I would definitely recommend this bra. Tiffany from Pennsylvania

I've had this bra for about two months. It definitely has a minimizing effect, but it's great for when I want that. Firm support. Very well-made bra. Amy from CT

Lightweight and comfortable enough for all day. The straps aren't as wide set as the other Fantasie bras so it stays on the shoulder better and looks better under tank tops. Page from California

Nice bra, still not perfect. I will wear it when I need minimizing to fasten front buttons or on the rare occasion I wear a woven top. Judith from Palm Springs, CA

Overall, a comfortable and supportive bra with a a smooth enough fabric to wear under tshirts. I have a short torso, a smallish frame and large "shallow" breasts after nursing 6 children. The only drawback is the gapping that occurs just at the armpit, which doesn't seem to improve with adjustments. I can put up with that, as hard as it has been to find a bra with good support that is smooth AND comfortable. Most underwires sit on my ribcage and dig in if I sit down. MommaDunne from Ashburn VA

I love this bra! It fits even better than my tried and true Fantasie 4520! Teresa

This bra is fabulous!!! I initially needed to send back a 32G and replaced it with a 34GG, and this size fits perfectly! The no slip straps are a dream. I can dance all night long without having to make a single adjustment. I wanted to order this bra in pink, but it's not available in my size, so I'll try red next. I own multiples of each color. It's the only bra I will wear. Jessica from NJ

The construction was nice and I liked the overall feeling and fit. The 34H was too small in cup size, I would like the option to try an I cup but the H is largest size they make. However, I was not impressed with the lack of side support at this size. My breasts are natural, and I'm not sure even the right cup would have contained them properly under the arms.

Fantasie Response: You might want to try a bra with seams and a side support panel to push your breast tissue in. The Fantasie Elodie Bra 2182 is a nice full cup with the panel and is very pretty and is offered in several colors. We also offer the Elomi Caitlyn Bra 8030 which gives super great support and the cup sizes go up to a K cup. You could try the Caitylyn in Universal Cup Size 34D9 (or a 34HH). Emily

Almost a perfect bra! I love the no-slip straps. That is one of my biggest problems with bras in my size. I would love to see a version of the Fantasie Balcony 4520 with straps like this too - that would give a little more side support and lift and make this a perfect bra. It would be great if they would do a version of this bra with a very light padding too. Overall a very very comfortable everyday bra. Dawn

Beautiful smooth shape under clothes; sems to magically minimize my shape without squashing! Submitted from TheUndies.com

The cups ran small and I would not consider this a full coverage bra

Fantasie Response: The Fantasie bras are UK sizing, therefore if you are used to wearing a DD 38D2 in an American brand you might be an E cup (38D3) in the Fantasie. Sarah

This bra is extremely comfortable, supportive and fits well. I have grown to love the uplifted, natural shape that Fantasie seamed bras give me, though this bra flattens and rounds my breasts a little. Because it is so light and comfortable, I love to wear it when cleaning and gardening. And I love that the straps are closer together. I wish more Fantasie bras had straps like these. Carolina
