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.

Popped into my nearest Bravissimo store today for a Fitting and to purchase some new bras. It had been about 10 months since I bought my last bras and I felt like my shape had changed. I purchased the champagne and black Niya bras and would have also taken the new navy lace version had it been in stock in my size because I love this bra! It’s comfortable, supportive and flattering.
A 28H cup is perfect although in some other brands, I am a 28GG. If you haven’t tried this bra, it’s worth giving it a go.

Review by Jillian C on
I normally wear a 32H in Freya and other Bravissimo styles, on the last hook. But, the black Niya was too tight. When I called customer service to inquire about the fit issue, they explained that the black dye causes the fabric not to stretch as much as the other Niya colors. So, if you are considering buying the black Niya and are in between band sizes, I recommend you size up. I would have exchanged for the 34H, but kept my original purchase because I’m losing weight and want to have a fabulous bra to reduce into. Otherwise, the Niya is another Bravissimo winner! Very similar style to the Freya Deco plunge bra. But, the Freya Deco stops at a GG cup and the Niya has larger cup sizes available.

Review by Jade on
After breastfeeding, my bra size increased and I now find the majority of underwire bras uncomfortable. However, this one is comfortable, looks great, gives a beautiful support and lift. I purchased in Champagne about 12 months ago and will be purchasing in the other colours because I love it that much and mine is now starting to look a little sad.
The only reason I wont say really comfortable is because I find that by the end of the day it has digged in around the band, which is something that has happened even when I increase the back size.
