Fantasie

Freya and Fantasie Swimwear for Fuller Busts

July 5, 2011 by Krista

I love the beach! In fact, I spend a significant portion of time there every summer. And, it wouldn’t be complete without an arsenal of Freya and Fantasie swimwear!

For years, I struggled accommodating my full bust into swimsuits. I tried buying XL tops in hopes of containing my assets, but because I’m so narrow around, the fit was never quite correct. I could never quite tie the straps around my neck and back tight enough. I could hardly enjoy myself because I was spending so much time fidgeting with my suit. And then…I met Freya!

I couldn’t believe that fun swimsuits could actually fit! Freya (and sister brand, Fantasie) swimsuits are bra-sized and designed to fit a wide range of sizes. Freya and Fantasie are sold at leading retailers including Bare Necessities, Linda’s, Town Shop, Asos, The Little Bra Shop, and Brastop.

Bare Necessities Now Offering Swimwear!

June 30, 2009 by Krista

As if the sunny weather wasn’t enough to make me happy these days?  My favorite online retailer, BareNecessities.com, has now expanded their selection to include swimwear!  Freya, Fantasie, and Miraclesuit provide us well-endowed ladies (through a GG cup!) with fashionable choices for our summers at the beach!  Since I already am a happy and proud owner of the Freya Vodkatini set in Cocoa, I’m considering the Malibu Lagoon.  Decisions, decisions.

Head over there soon to choose from these suits and many more!  And while you’re there, check out the great BN Staff Picks for the summer from T-shirt bras to VPL-eliminating panties for all of your summer favorites from white pants to clingy dresses.  Happy shopping!

Secrets From Your Sister – 2 Great Toronto Locations!

October 13, 2008 by Krista

Our dear friends at Soak Wash (sponsor of our latest contest – winners announced soon!) were kind enough to tell us about one of their favorite places in Toronto.  Secrets From Your Sister is a place after my own heart!  With a focus on fitting women properly, SFYS is dedicated to being a bra fitting boutique that educates women and provides them quality options that flatter their figures.  Their wide variety of styles accommodates women of all shapes and sizes, even those that are not featured in mainstream stores.The SFYS website shows a sampling of the great brands sold at the boutique including Fantasie, Freya, Chantelle, Harlequin, and Pleasure State.  Search products by smaller or bustier cup sizes.

The original Secrets From Your Sister is located at 560 Bloor Street West (at Bathurst).  The recently opened location is located at 2501 Yonge Street (at Eglington).  See here for maps and store hours.  Don’t forget to establish a customer file when you make your purchase.  It will be accessible at both stores for convenient shopping!

And, all new SFYS customers who shop at the Yonge Street boutique between now and November 30th will receive 20% off their first bra purchase!  Happy Shopping!

Thanks to Jen Aaron for the gorgeous photos below from the new Yonge Street store.

Elomi: Fantasie Styles for an Even Fuller Figure

September 22, 2008 by Kelly

Fantasie is one of my favorite everyday lingerie brands. Fantasie has built up such a strong brand by offering bras to women whose bra sizes aren’t offered by many companies because of the large cup size and small band size. Still, there are full-figured women that even Fantasie leaves out because most of their designs are only offered up to about a 40 band (depending on the style). Now Eveden, makers of Fantasie, is offering a line called Elomi to include the most voluptuous women. This new brand offers bras and basques in sizes up to a 52 band and H cup. If you’ve ever admired a Fantasie set and were disappointed that your size wasn’t offered, this may be your chance! Although few bras are exact copies, the styles bear a strong resemblance. Some designs are altered by the addition of a fourth panel, which helps support and shape the fullest of figures while keeping your breast tissue from spilling out of the cups.The style names may be different, but the bras themselves look strikingly similar when you compare them side by side. Be sure to click on the thumbnails to see details!

The Elomi Jasmine set looks very similar to the Fantasie Gabrielle set:

Unpadded smoothing bras of both Elomi and Fantasie are the same, with different colors and coordinating knickers:

The Elomi Kristie set is an interpretation of the Fantasie Cally style:

The Elomi Serena basque could be mistaken for Fantasie’s Bridgette:

Elomi’s  Tamarie bra is even prettier than the Fauve by Fantasie Amelie bra it resembles:

It’s obvious that the same masterminds are behind both of these brands. If you like what you see, you can buy both Elomi and Fantasie from Figleaves UK, Figleaves US, Bare Necessities, or HerRoom. The Elomi website isn’t yet up and running, but hopefully will be soon!

Fantasie Swimwear 08 09

June 1, 2008 by Krista

We talked about the Freya Swimwear for this season a couple hours ago. Now, we focus on the latest Fantasie line!

Seattle is the basic of the Fantasie collections. All suits are available in Black with most also being available in the rich, vibrant Peacock! Choose the top that compliments your figure best – balcony, sweetheart padded, halter triangle, or bandeau tankini. Pair with the classic brief, short, or control brief all featuring the added touch of a belt. Want more coverage? A v-neck one piece with control lining is also available.

Marrakesh, available in Black, features both a plain and Moroccan inspired print. Mix and match choosing from a balcony bikini or halter triangle bikini top and a deep brief with belt or fold brief. A one piece is also available.

Print is also present in the Honolulu collection. Top options include a balcony bikini and underwire tankini. Bottom options include a classic brief and fold brief. All items are available in Peacock.

Not that you would want to cover up any of these amazing designs, but sometimes you just have to! Both lines offer very cute and classy cover ups. South Beach, a jersey dress by Freya, is available in both White and Coco. Cairo, a kaftan by Fantasie, is available in Black and Bitter Chocolate.

Look for all of these collections to hit stores later this fall. Perfect for that winter getaway you’ll need to take. In the meantime, summer is practically here! You still have time to snag a sexy (and well-fitting) suit for all the pool and beach hopping you plan to do this summer. Explore the current Freya and Fantasie swimwear collections at stores worldwide and online, including TLP favorite Boudiche as well as Lion’s Lair Specialty Swim and Belle Lingerie. I’ll be sure to let you know about my choice in the forums! Happy shopping!
