Fantasie Smoothing T-Shirt Bra fl4510 Reviews

I absolutely ADORE this bra. I stumbled across it by accident, and it's the best thing that ever happened to me! I was having difficulty finding a bra that fit me, when I tried this one on I almost started crying because it was so wonderful. It supports the girls very well and keeps them up where they need to be. The shape is a bit 'pointier' than other molded cup bras, but it isn't too bad. The cups are very stiff, which takes some getting used to, but I don't mind too much. The band does get a smidge uncomfortable after wearing it all day, mainly right under the bust. The wires are thick so that they support you correctly, but this can cause pain if it is adjusted too tightly or if you're just slouching on the couch at home or something. All in all, I love this bra. I now own two, and Fantasie is a wonderful brand. Rachel from Hawaii

I ordered 2 of these bras based on the customer ratings. It is a nice bra. However, after wearing it for a few hours it begins to be uncomfortable near the armpit and after a full day of wearing it it literally hurts in the same area. I can't wear this bra everyday. I have to give it a day or 2 in between because of this discomfort. Other than that I like this bra for the lift, but could personally use a little more separation. It's great under my t-shirts, but looks a little strange under other blouses. I don't think I would purchase this one again. Jeanne from Florida

I wanted to love this bra, really. But it's so hard to find the right size online. I thought I followed the directions on the website, but you never really know until you try a bra on which size you'll really need. No fault of HerRoom, they give the best advice that they can. If you already know that you like molded/foam cup bras, then this one will probably make you happy. Even in a size much too large for me, I could tell that the shape was good, without that fold-over that I tend to see under the arms on similar bras (like the Le Mystere). But the band size and the cup size were way off for me according to the measuring instructions and I'm afraid to order another of these and pay tons in return shipping until I get the right size. I've found another style that I like (Fantasie 4500) so I'll probably just stick with that one for now. Kimberly from Ohio

This is my favorite bra of all time! (I now own three of them). I was professionally fit at Nordstrom about six months ago after losing 35 pounds. She fit me in this bra and it made me look so much "perkier" than I had in 12 years! The girls are up and in (locked and loaded!!) and look so good that I naturally stand up straighter! It's also extremely comfortable. BalletMommy from Eureka/CA/USA

What a fantastic bra! It fits comfortably and gives great support, keeping the girls right where they need to be. I use it as an everyday bra because it's versatile and gives great shape under a variety of tops. Christy from Bigfork, MT, USA

While I love the non-foam version of this bra, the cups on this one fit me oddly and don't give me the desired shape I get with other molded cup bras. The underwires also feel wider on this one than on the exact same size in the non-foam version. It's not a bad bra, it just doesn't fit me quite right, even though I tried a variety of sizes. I decided to buy another of the Fantasie Seamless Molded Balcony Bra 4520 instead, as it fits wonderfully and comfortably. Christina from Norman, OK

Great fit. Gives a very feminine, and nice shape. I love that this bra doesn't make me feel like I'm wearing a "bullet proof vest" like so many bras for large cup sizes do, and it still holds me up and in! I will definitely buy another.

Also, the website compares a Fantasie DD equal to a Le Mystere E, but I found that NOT to be true... I think Fantasie E cup was actually larger than the Le Mystere's E... so I had to order several times to get my correct size - but it was absolutely worth the trouble. Alex from Texas, USA

I like that this bra gives me the support i need but is still cute to wear. Shawna from Columbia

My favorite everyday bra! It pulls me up and in, making me look perky, in spite of my size and shape (not an easy thing to do)! I've had many, many of these, and they wear well (I do hand wash and line dry my lingerie). I definitely recommend it! (PS--Agree with Michelle; I wish it came in a GG.) Casey from Detroit, MI

This is by far the best bra for me. I have tried some of the other brands but this fits the best. The fit is perfect if you are on the small side with larger breasts will be buying more of these bras. Bye Bye Victoria Secret they don't have the big cup sizes I need. Thanks so much HerRoom Chelle from Dunlap,TN USA

I found that the cups on this bra run a little small. Also, I felt like the bra fits low and therefore it never felt right. I will say that I've had it for more than a year and I wear it all the time. It is extremely durable. The underwire has never poked out and it has maintained its shape. I will only buy Fantasie's now for this reason. Wish it came in one cup size larger. Michelle from Indianapolis

Very large, stiff, uncomfortable cups, though I ordered my usual size. I had to return it, and I never return items. It was way too loose for a 30, but cups were huge. After reading the reviews, I think maybe I had the wrong size. Perhaps they just run big - or maybe look better in smaller cup sizes? I typically fit in a 30 G Freya or Fantasie.

I got this bra for 2 reasons. I've been wearing VS, and while the style I get is comfortable, I wanted something that would give a bit more support and lift, and not pull into my shoulders so much, and because my daughter, who wears 32F or G wears this and loves it. It really makes her shape look great. I tried it on and it fit, and while it felt like much more of a major garment than what I was used to, I thought I'd get used to it and wore it a few days. Now, it did definitely lift and bring things more centered, which works great for my daughter since she is smaller framed, but for me it was too overwhelming, it felt like I had a saddle on. It was hard for me to put a star rating on this since I think it can be fabulous for women with very large breasts, but perhaps too constricting for some. Marji from Aptos, CA

I purchased these items on-line after going to the store where I have bought this style previously without success. The order was prompt and accurate and there were no shipping charges.

I thought I liked this bra when I tried it on in a store. I purchased two of them. Wore one for about 3 hours. The bra is really uncomfortable! It is itchy, it bruised my ribcage...dug into my shoulders. Just all around uncomfortable! Wore a regular cotton t shirt with it and had to keep readjusting the t shirt and when I did it sounded like I was wearing a diaper on my chest. Would never recommend this bra to anyone. It seems as if their cup sizes are not true. I almost needed something in between a FF and a G. Moving on to other brands! Hala from TX USA

I like this bra a lot. I've never been able to find a seamless bra before that offers the support I find necessary. This bra definitely has support. I almost think my breasts look artificial in this bra because they are lifted so high. It offers support and it is not cut that high - it allows me to show a little cleavage. I tried Le Mysterie, but I was between sizes. I definitely recommend this bra. Karen from Phoenix

As others have said, I *love* this bra, one of my favorites ever. The support and comfort are outstanding and definitely makes you look perky and "pulled together". I spend a fortune on bras and this is my new favorite for sure. Looks great under clothes too! (unlike some other reviewers, i did feel the cups run true to size) ali

I love this bra. I need full coverage & this one has enough coverage at the top to keep me from "tumbling" out of the cups. This bra seems to hold me up better than the Fantasie strapless bra (which is my other favorite), but the back straps don't adjust to let me wear it with sleeveless tops. Buy it . . . you will love it. Sandy from Knoxville, TN

I was professionally fitted as a 32DD but found that the cups on this bra run small. I exchanged for a 32E and am so happy I did! Excellent support and keeps me high, front, and center. Would definitely buy again! Also, the exchange was easy and fast. Great customer service. rdd from durham/NC/USA

Really like this bra! It's comfortable and lightweight and gives a great-shape.Due to my size, I've searched high and low for a seamless bra that works with lower-cut necklines.This bra also gives great uplift and cleavage.Only problem is I had to return the first one I ordered for one cup size larger.Think this is because it is a balcony type bra as opposed to the full-coverage bras I usually wear. HerRoom was great handling the exchange. Claudia from FL

I love this bra. I wore my regular size. I find that I fit in to my blouses better with this bra as the girls are more upfront. I wear some blouses I cannot wear with other bras. Great for ladies with full breasts. Does not show under T shirts. . Myra from Canada

This is the best bra I've ever worn (and I've tried a lot.) It fits me better around the ribcage than any other bra I've ever worn. Also I like how the wires in front are very close to my chest and close together. It fits flat (no other bra I've tried does for me). Also it's amazing how good it is at holding my boobs up. I look perkier in this bra than any other and this bra is the most comfortable one I've tried. These things are built to last too. I usually wear out a bra in 3-6 months. I got two of these (in a 32f) and wore them for over a year and you couldn't tell they weren't brand new. I only got new ones because my boobs grew again. Awesome bra, well worth the money. Would highly highly recommend. Leisha from haslett, MI

By far, this is the BEST bra I have EVER owned. As we all know, when the body ages the breast tissue is, well, how do I say it, is not as 'firm' as it used to be. I have been forced to always purchase 'full coverage' bras. And that's OK because there are some really nice ones (check out the Fantasie line). But this bra gives just enough coverage, the molded cups are great for the 'T-shirt' look (Or 'no' look if you know what I mean), but there is a nice bit of a plunge to the bra as well. The best part---your breasts don't fall out of it to give you the 'double-boob' look!! If you get the right size the back will not ride up. It's REALLY great to be able to purchase a 30 band size for a E. I have worn this under t-shirts as well as wrap sun dress with a very deep plunge and it looks great! I would highly recommend this bra. Thanks to Fantasie and to HerRoom for making this bra available! Cindy from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

This is the best bra that I have ever owned. It provides the most flattering look that I wanted with no lines, no nipples, just smoothness. All my clothes fit better since my breasts are supported and where they are supposed to be! That said though, I will state that I have never found a truly "comfortable" bra. In order to do what bras need to do, defy gravity, they need to be snug around your rib cage. Well that's just plain uncomfortable no matter how you look at it or how wonderful the bra is. I just live with the discomfort and try to find what ends up looking the best and I finally found it. I was professionally fitted for this bra and it works for me. Mary from Metro Detroit

Comfortable. It's the second one I've purchased. When I wear this bra with DIMRS, even tight fitting clothes look very smooth. If you have prominent nipples and large breasts that you are trying to camouflage, this should be a good choice for you. Lorrie from Portland Oregon

I really like this bra: I like the support, I like the shape that it gives my breasts, I like the lift. My clothes fit nicely with this bra underneath, I feel more attractive. This bra style doesn't have seams across the cups, which in my opinion, is fantastic. I have not had luck with seams, they make my breasts appear pointed downward. This bra, on the other hand, makes my breasts look perky. I own 4 bras in this style, and when they get worn out, I'll definitely be purchasing more. Kristina from New York

This is the best bra ever! So comfortable with amazing support. I wear Fantasie bras almost exclusively now. Kat

I wanted to like this; in fact I still need a t-shirt bra. But, this one is not it for me. The straps are completely stretchy, so they dig into my shoulders. And they are really, really stretchy, not just a bit so, which contributes to a lot of bounce when I moved. But, to me, the worst part was the shaping. The cups have an odd uplift at the tip and it just doesn't seem natural to me at all. It was relatively comfie and the fit was fine. Annie from Midwest, USA

Fabulous support for small chest/large bust. The only bra that fits me! Submitted from TheUndies.com
