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 and supportive without feeling restrictive. I was a little worried that the rings might be heavy or uncomfortable but they are unnoticeable when wearing.

Review by Joanna W on
It was hard for me to find a swimsuit because:
a) Tankinis and bikinis seem to be more popular.
b) I like full cup or balconette, not plunge.
c) I am short so need adjustable straps.
I ordered and tried on a number of swimsuits from Bravissimo and had to return all of them. The last one I returned to the Guildford store in person, instead of via post, so that I could ask for help in finding a swimsuit which would fit. Everything I tried at home was too revealing, or too tight in the body, or too small in the cup. Finally, at the Guildford store, I was given the Miami swimsuit to try and what immediately struck me was how comfortable it was.The fabric is thick and soft (kind of cushioned I suppose), it stretches in all directions, and it has no underwire but is still very supportive. It also has adjustable straps and is not a plunge so I could get the coverage and fit that I needed. Ticked all of my boxes! I won't be buying another swimsuit for a long time (I hope!) because I don't swim often so I hope this swimsuit will still be available in years to come and in different colours.

The green wasn’t as nice as in the picture. And it was very low cut on the legs that made it a bit unflattering also took ages to dry!

Beautiful swimsuit in a stunning colour . I had to return initially because the size runs big. I ordered a 36F which is my bra size but ended up swapping for a 34F which is perfect.
