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.

I live in a very hot country so a padded T shirt bra is just too uncomfortable & bulky - this is a brilliant bra : lightweight, breathable, smooth cups and 2 way straps for hot weather clothes. I'll be ordering another or 2.

As the shops are closed, I thought of online purchasing. I’ve had this bra a few times from Bravissimo so a repeat purchase made sense.

I have a number of these bras. I put on weight in lockdown and needed to go up a size so bought another. Smooth under all types and colours of clothing. Comfy. Great every day bra.

Review by Maureen on
Love this bra for its softness and natural feel. Bought in nude and now ordered in black. Usually a 34H but had to go a 36GG as no H cup available in the 36. This was on the advice of an excellent customer service lady over the phone, and very happy with the advice. I agree with others that it does give a slightly wider look, but I prefer this than to be too pushed forward. The only fault that I have with the bra is the back band. It is not very wide and only has two hook fasteners. This makes it quite difficult to fasten for the larger lady. In my opinion, a wider, stronger back band and three hooks would make this bra perfect.
Nice and smooth bra with some fitting quirks3 out of 5 stars

Review by Silja on
It's a great thing to have a non-padded seamless bra, and the smooth material feels good on the skin. At least for me the highest point of the bust is slightly lower than most bras, and this affects the fit of some tops or dresses. Also, the back size was smaller than I expected. It's fine with an extender, but I would recommend buying one back size up.

Review by Anahit on
I really liked this bra, but it made me look wider than I really am. Other than that it was comfortable, very supportive, and true to size. I mostly wore it during colder weather when it was sweater and cardigan season. If you have a longer torso this would make a pear shaped body look more like an hourglass, however I am too short for that effect.

Review by Ellie on
I wear the moulded balconette from Panache all the time in a 28E -it's a great fit, but I wanted something without the moulding, a bit less full on. This is just as supportive and I love the shape, but the cup size is quite a bit smaller -I'm exchanging from E to F but suspect I might end up in FF -and I have never been that size!
