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 bra is true to size and incredibly comfortable on. Straps dont dig in at all. Very pleased.

Review by Charlotte on
This has become my go to bra for two reasons: it is comfortable due to the soft fabric and it gives such a great shape! It provides support on the side of the boobs so that you don't get that annoying flat look where your arms touch the sides when you move. Maybe not ideal in terms of support when running down the stairs or to the bus... Fabric is rather thin. I would advise to order one cup larger. I am normally a 32 G but only 32 H fits me. Ordering it again!

I brought this bra as an every day bra. I like the support and minimising effect. It gives great shape and coverage for the mature woman, and is just so comfortable to wear. I liked it so much I brought the matching panties, and also a white and navy one too. The navy is very flattering.

I don’t know why people prefer modern and round shaped bras?! This is no way super pointy like bullet bras, (I’ve managed to source some old triumph ones that I love). I find more ‘pointed’ (again isn’t so pointy) bra’s provide a much smaller yet perkier look for us girls who are a bit too-blessed. Hate the modern round look that just make u appear 2-3 dress sizes larger and makes your arms sit out further as your boobs are pushed out to the side. They are one poorly fitted top away from a mono-boob. I find less-blessed girls prefer the modern style as it makes them look bigger...something I don’t need! Well girls, this is your bra! Minimises without pushing the boobs under the arms and still looks perky and neat under a shirt, like you have sexy boobs not ‘excess weight’ strapped in. I’ve returned to purchase one in each colour. Excellent support, no top jiggle and pretty without that obvious lace look under a top. I’m usually a 32H in Bravissimo, went to a 32HH. Band was fine and comfortable. Give it a try, you might be pleasantly surprised!

I just recently brought this bra but had to return it as cups were far too big, very nice material but not for me.

Review by Sara on
Absolutely delighted with it. I selected it on the basis of excellent reviews. I wanted a bra that was plain with no fancy lace or anything like that but that uplifted, supported and was comfortable. Just giving it its first outing today and it's all those things. With some brand's I sometimes think oh I'll have a day off of bra wearing but this is so comfortable and no jiggling if you break into a run! My last bra was an E and I haven't put weight on so perhaps it's size is a bit smaller than usual. I didn't have a fitting as such but the amazing staff can usually just look at you to know your size. I always ask staff to check how it looks on me. Bravissimo, Bravissimo!

I have just received this bra this morning tried on and, my goodness, the cups are so big I could have put both of them in one cup. Sent it straight back.

Been trying for ages to get a good replacement for the old Freya Rio and seems like I have found it.
I'm quite petite, but I can get the straps short enough on this bra. Just seems that I can breathe so much more easily!
