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.

I like the idea of this bra, but as a 34J I wish it was in a larger size and had more padded cups as it was a bit too lacey for my needs.
Shame, but really Bravissimo needs to increase stock of front fastening bras.
So comfy and looks gorgeous on!5 out of 5 stars

This feels heavenly to wear and I don’t mind that some of the straps can be seen as it’s so pretty!! Will definitely buy another, would like a range of colours though…

AT LAST another front fastening bra, what took you so long. I love this bra and loved all the others. Please can we have a nude, black and white. Why do we have to wait so long for a front fastening??????????

It looks great - lovely shape, deep plunge, fantastic colour combination and I like the idea of a front clasp. Unfortunately, it's really uncomfortable to wear, particularly if sat down for any length of time. I think this is designed for those with a smaller rib cage and smaller, lighter boobs. I find my boobs began to travel inwards as the day went on, causing the underwire in the middle to poke into the underside of my boobs and my breastbone. Pushing them back into place then simultaneously caused the underwire to nip under my arms. I've had to keep it as I only realised the issues after I'd worn it to work, not realising the issues I'd have after the first couple of hours (a very uncomfortable 12 hour shift that turned out to be!). A real shame - I'll keep hoping for a comfortable deep plunge bra!

I have an arm injury so needed a bra to fasten at the front and there was only one on Bravissimo. It is good and looks nice but the straps cut in too tightly around the neck and show under most clothes.

This bra is so beautiful! I wish I could give it 5 stars but there are 2 problems for me - 1) it cuts into my breast bone a little, and 2) the support isn't great for larger size cups. Maybe that's just how it goes with front-closure bras. I did decide to keep it though think I'll probably only wear it for a few hours at a time.
Very comfortable bra.5 out of 5 stars

Although it is easy to fasten at the front I hate the way the straps sit close to my neck so that they are visible when wearing a tshirt
