Did you know we don't use tape measures at Bravissimo? Instead we fit by eye as knowing how a bra should look and feel is the best way to find your most comfortable fit - here's how…
How do you know if your bra fits right?
1
How should your band fit?
Most of the support comes from the underband. It should be horizontal around your body without riding up or digging in. We recommend fastening a new bra on its loosest hooks so that you can tighten it if it stretches over time.
2
Where should the underwire of a bra sit?
The underwires in your bra should sit flat on your ribcage (not your boob!) all the way round to your armpits. The wires between your boobs should lie flat against your chest without digging in, rubbing or poking out.
3
How should a bra cup fit?
Make sure your boobs are fully in the cups – a bit of a scoop, wiggle and jiggle usually does the trick! You should fill the cups without any bulging or wrinkling even in a lower-cut style and there should be a smooth line, with no ridge, where the top and the side of the fabric ends.
Not sure what size you are, or feeling uncomfortable in your current size? Don’t worry, we’re here to help! A whopping 92% of women change bra size after their first fitting with us, so you’re not alone! We promise we can find you the uplifting fit that you deserve.

This swimsuit is one of my 2 favorite, both from Bravissimo. It is super easy to don, doff, and secure the back. The fabric is awesome and the color is perfect! I’d buy more in a heartbeat!

A really odd material that gave the effect of an old knitted costume. Very heavy too so I can imagine it wouldn't dry quickly and easily . Difficult to do up but lovely V shape

I bought this swimsuit for a recent holiday.I love the colour and fabric but it is very difficult to get into. The inner bra is not attached to the swimsuit very well so it is a struggle to wear. I was disappointed as I love the look of it.

My favourite ever pair of bathers. The fabric has great stretch and it gives good lift and definition. Beautiful colour.
The only issue is that I couldn’t do the back up by myself, so wouldn’t recommend for solo swimmers!

I returned the lilac one a short time ago but only because I'd purchased a Freya one in similar fabric. However, I decided whilst available to get this in pink, quite a dilemma as the Freya one is now available in sorbet too (decisions decisions). I'm pleased with this in pink it's vibrant and it looks very flattering it's worth the tricky fastening that others have commented on, to be honest I don't see a problem once it's fastened it's supportive and it's a bit different not having the clasp on show. PLEASE BRAVISSIMO KEEP THIS STYLE AND FABRIC COMING. So many of these fabric swimsuits out there but none with underwired bras inside. ITS FAB I LOVE IT, At 54 I still feel on trend in this suit, super confident, comfortable and supported, it's one of the best I've ever purchased and I've purchased a lot! Well done Bravissimo. Size 16 38G.

Review by Jane on
I loved the idea of the swimsuit without the back strap on show and thought the photos looked great. It just wasn't as good in reality. It wasn't that easy to get on and the strap was just too tight. I felt it would have been too uncomfortable to wear for any length of time on the beach. Also in the front you could see the seam lines of the bra which took away from the appearance. The pink was a nice bright colour and the material very soft. I returned it
