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.

The bra is very comfy and the lace is beautiful, although I have waiting to wear the bras as I have had to change cup size twice from 36j to 36HH and now waiting for 36h. So I have everything crossed as I love the style.

Review by Elaine on
My “go to” bra is the Satine. I own it in every colour they currently have, so to find a vibrant orange bra in another style “based on the Satine” was exciting. I ordered the 32H with the expectation that I may have to go down 1 cup size, but to say to was disappointing was an understatement! I felt like I was a young girl again trying on my mother’s bra. I barely touched the sides. So, off I went into the Nottingham store to see if we could remedy things. We started with the G - this gave me multi- boobs and the GG gaped in the top of the cup, unless I stood up poker straight with my shoulders back. Not a good posture to hold all day. So not to “waste” a rare trip into the city I bought ANOTHER Satine bra.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Bravissimo help us gals that have lost the upper boob “padding” due to age and breast feeding multiple kids by giving us a choice of bra styles (or I’d even settle for more colours and patterns in the Satine) that put our ‘well loved and abused’ boobs back where they used to be.

This is the bet fitting bra I've ever own. It looks amazing, gives enough support and cleavage without being over the top. It's also really comfortable, most bras start to hurt and leave marks on my skin as the day goes on but I can wear this all day without feeling any discomfort. Please make more colours!

This set was really lovely. It fits really well and the bit underneath is really pretty and also made me feel more confident as covered a little more of my tummy area.

Love this Nellie bra! The same comfort as the Millie but with a little added oomph! The cups are padded where Millie isn’t, but not too padded to make my already ample bust look ridiculous!
Really comfortable to wear and I love the little added detail of the lacy trim round the bottom!

Dear bravissimo, I love the Nellie bra, it's comfortable, I have two different sizes of boobs like many of us, so I needed to tighten the backs a lot tighter
