I have worn this bra for over 10 years in various iterations and loved them all. The recent re-design however is awful. Instead of a forward shape, my boobs disappear outward towards my armpits, making me look an odd, flat broad shape. I'm very disappointed, especially as I bought one of in each colour that are totally unwearable in public. The new strap design is ridiculous too. They have come undone on more than one occasion, meaning I have to get undressed to remove the bra to re-attach the strap into the hook. Honestly, whoever designed this one needs sacking.

First thing I noticed when I tried the bra was how comfortable it was. It is very flattering under clothes and gives a very smooth uplifted appearance while not looking like you are wearing a heavily padded bra. The ability to change the straps to a criss cross at the back is also an added bonus. Although the bra is nothing fancy it is a very practical garment to have and I am very happy with the purchase.

Not the fanciest bra in the world, but it's exactly what I wanted. Sturdy with no padding, unobtrusive while still supportive. In a perfect world the band would be wider and there'd be at least one more hook (this bra has two hooks) but even so it's not lacking in any department. I forget about it the moment I finish getting dressed and only remember it when it's time to come off. If you want to be absolutely apathetic about your bra during the day, this is the bra for you. Buy it. Feel nothing. Move on.

This is a great smooth everyday bra that is really comfortable, doesn’t show underneath clothes and gives a good cleavage. It is not as cleavagey as the Gossard Superboost Lace plunge bra but the low leotard back is certainly practical, fashionable and stays put. Being able to adjust the shoulder straps to halter neck, one shoulder and criss-cross was the major selling point for me as it makes packing to go away on holiday much easier. I do love the Porcelain Elan Strapless bra too and you can play around more with the fully detachable shoulder straps however the back strap has to be both 3 hooks wide and level to give full support when you go strapless which means that you would see the back strap under lower-backed garments. I am happy that I own both styles now.

I've been a loyal Bravissimo for 8 years I this is the best bra I've ever owned! Thanks.
