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.

Good fit (34J) liked the back clip for extra support. Plenty of material around the front, needed more at the back. Shows a bit too much thigh and bottom, once you move goes into thong mode! Nice to look at, but as material is like lurex found it a bit prickly to sit on a sunbed for long periods of time. Didn't wear in pool but sure it would be supportive enough for aqua gym.

Loved the style but the fit was not good. Bust was far too big, inner cup lining was awkward to fit in. I have ordered a smaller bust size.

This swimsuit looks great, but is unbelievably uncomfortable. The material is super scratchy, especially on freshly tanned skin. When the sun catches it, you feel like a sparkly mermaid, but the friction burns from walking are too much. Under my arms are sore from where they touched my waste

Review by Olivia on
A lot more ‘coppery’ in colour than shows on the website pics and very very glittery. If that’s your thing you’ll probably like it. The fabric is not a typical swimsuit fabric, the glitter makes it very very scratchy. It was very uncomfortable getting it on over my thighs and the lining also kept showing on the groin area. I wouldn’t like to be taking it off after catching the sun or a day at the beach. Gives a decent amount of bust and shoulder support, but no tummy control at all.

So pleased I’ve found a swimsuit which I’m happy / comfortable in , supports my chest and slims the body . Good supportive bra , fully lined and love the copper colour . Quality swimsuit .
I am top heavy so it’s difficult to find a swimsuit which is not too big overall, this was perfect for me so I’ve bought another in the sale.

It was so gorgeous but sadly would have been impossible to swim in due to the itchiness of the fabric.

Review by Catherine on
I liked the look of this on the site.
However when I tried it, despite being lined I didn't like the feel of the material. It was difficult to get on. Once it was on and it was fastened, it was too long in the body. I could have lived with that except the cut of the behind was very narrow and I don't have a backside. I would not have been able to relax in it at all. So it is going back.
