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.

Review by Maggie C on
I doubt I could swim in this. It’s very long and almost A line from under the bust so on me, it is not at all flattering. I’m a size 12 34FF but I’d like to have a smoother look/silhouette and not a couple centimetres plus of fat hanging over. I just wish bra and tankini designers would allow us bigger boobed girls, a bit more cover from the back of the arm pit (you know the back fat bit!) and provide us the coverage a pull on soft bra gives. As far as this tankini goes, it would be ok to sunbathe in but I like the cover a tankini gives especially around the tummy area and the fact you can buy boy style swimming shorts which are just a fraction longer than a standard bikini bottom to give a bit more cover too, makes a tankini top a potentially great option for me. So to cut a long story short, this one was returned. My search for a tankini that fits my specifications continues, but I won’t be holding my breath as long as designers still trot out, the usual designs.

At last I have found swimwear which is both comfortable and supportive. The staff in the Edinburgh branch were very helpful and patient during my visit and I am very happy with the service and result.

I am not normally a black n white person, but the white is more like an alabaster color, so I was sold. The reverse print coverup skirt color and the print is cute and stylish.
