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.

Very comfortable fit but rather fiddly to do the back up. Once I use it more I’m sure it will b quicker

As I have bought this for a forthcoming holiday I have not put my swimsuit to the real test yet however I have now tied this on a couple of time at home in my leisure & it feels very comfortable & the quality feels very good.

Fits really well. There's a bit of extra fabric throughout the swimsuit/ especially on the straps, but the hidden bra fits perfectly and that is what I am optimizing for.

Review by Pam on
Once you’ve got it on and done the horrible fiddly bra fastening up at the back, it looks nice enough in, but it’s far too much of a struggle to be bothered to try wearing it again.i have managed to wear it twice. On both occasions I became very frustrated with the fastening. I am now so fed up with it that I really want to be refunded, because I will never wear it again. Other manufacturers have wired busts, but to include a bra style fastening at the back it just a step too far.

Review by Jillian D on
I love this costume. Beautiful vibrant colour and textured material to at stood up to chlorine, waterparks, sea water and sun cream on holiday. Great support across the top of the costume, a bit less over the tummy but fairly flattering. Looks good with white shorts and holiday wear.
My only negative is when wet, this costume becomes a contortion act to get everything back up and the bra top fastening the right way up, eg. If you go to the toilet - quite different to other bravissimo costumes I’ve had. At one point I wondered if I might have to give up and go home in a towel.
