Thanks to Bravissimo I now have a strapless bra that I fill out completely AND that doesn't move even during 100 degree heat and 100 percent humidity! I originally ordered the wrong size (I bought a 30F thinking it was a US 30F and not a UK 30F). Bravissimo immediately sent me a bra in the correct size (a UK 30E) and are refunding me the original purchase.

This bra has fulfilled my dreams of wearing strappy tops in summer! I'm in my twenties and have always been very jealous of my friends wearing tops and dresses that needed a non-standard bra... but now I need be jealous no more. I have previously had other strapless bras that either didn't fit properly, made my boobs look weird or did absolutely nothing for me. This bra gives a nice shape and really stays in place - no pulling it up. The only downside of the vice-like grip is that I find that if I wear it all day I get painful marks where the rubberized parts have been, especially if it's hot. I chose to go down a cup size as I found my usual size basically just covered my boobs so would have been unflattering with strappy/low cut tops. With the smaller cup the shape is still good but I seem to get more lift. The assistant in store was really helpful with choosing between the two and encouraged me to go for whichever one I wanted.

The goddess of bra fitting has finally smiled upon me! I've never found a strapless bra to fit my small (5'1") frame before, and this is wonderful. I didn't have to go down a back size as some other reviews have suggested, and it's surprisingly comfortable. It doesn't dig into the armpits (a common problem I've found with strapless bras and small people) and although it's fairly compressive doesn't give a strange shape. All thumbs up from me.

This bra is going nowhere it has a vice like grip but is super comfortable, the fitting ladies suggested I get a size smaller back than I normally order which was perfect advice and probably where I've been going wrong in the past with strapless bras, however I did need to go up a cup size, it fits perfectly and I feel very secure.

I sized down to a 36E and this fit pretty much perfectly, however not enough support or coverage for me. I was looking for a strapless bra to wear with a bridesmaid dress and really don't want to be worried about falling out or to be adjusting it in the wedding photos so am going to send it back and try a different style. A shame because it is otherwise lovely, am sure it would be perfect for smaller sizes.

This bra is the most supportive strapless bra that I've tried, but as a result it feels a bit uncomfortable after a few hours of wear. In addition, I'm not a fan of the shape it gives, as the padding is quite heavy and therefore gives a pretty unnatural shape. But overall it is a good bra, though not for everyday wear.

I have had this bra for nearly 5 years and it still serves me well. I always use it for special occasions, its my must have, I am only now starting to need a replacement due to everyday wear and tear. but after 5 years who's surprised. It is by far my favourite bra in my closet. Definitely need a new one and I think I'll be getting it in nude as well to go with all the light and floral dresses I'll be wearing this summer. It doesnt give the support that strapped bras do without the straps but it does give enough so it can support comfortably all day especially because of the 4 hooks it has help to keep it the same place, which is definitely needed for us larger busted girls.

Looking to replace my old strapless bra, which I thought was also deco, but may have changed design. When I tried this on, oh my goodness, made me look like Boobzilla! Not for bigger ladies, if they don't want to look even bigger. Old one still much more flattering under clothes, so my search continues. Wish bravissimo could have a ratings system for thickness of padding. Light padding gives flattering shape. Boobzilla padding though... I also found the straps very thin and the attachment loops were folded twice before stitching. Whoever had inserted the hooks previously may have put them through the wrong layer and it took me ages to unhook the straps. Almost gave up for fear of damaging the bra. Backsize came up tight, compared with same make in conventional bra.
