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.

I find this bra a bit boring. Not enough excitement or lace. It fits fine though.

Supportive, comfortable and gives good shape. Only wish the larger sizes had a slightly wider back (a 4 clasp would be good) and more material/support under the arms.

Review by Julie I on
I normally buy the 'Amber' bra. However, with the 'Amber' being unavailable (hopefully only temporarily) I was advised that the 'Satine' was similar and worth a try.
So I gave it a go. What I have found with the 'Satine' is that, although it is mostly comfortable and supportive, it does nothing for my overall shape. Also I found that, on me, the bottom of the side panels had a slight tendency to 'roll up' resulting in me constantly adjusting the sides. Whilst there is nothing wrong with the 'Satine' per se, it is just not for me.
Would I buy it again? No sorry, I'll just keep waiting for the 'Amber' to come back into stock.

I’ve been ordering these bras for years as I find they fit me well and don’t look too substantial. So disappointed to hear you’re discontinuing the Ivory. I hope you’re replacing it with a white or equivalent.

Review by Catherine on
I have now had this bra in multiple colours and sizes repeatedly. Whenever I get it, it is my go-to bra that is gorgeous, comfortable and works well with every outfit. HOWEVER, I have also found that each time I buy this bra, it only lasts a week or two before the underwire breaks through to stab me in the chest. I've had this when I've been properly fitted in-store, I've had this when I've then bought it up a cup size in the hope the wire seams wouldn't burst... It's happened each time. I love this bra, but it is heartbreaking that every time, across I think four or five different purchases of this bra, the wire comes through and I've not yet managed to mend any in a way where the wire doesn't just burst through again... I still kinda want another one, because when it isn't stabbing me, it is the best bra I've ever had, but unfortunately it just doesn't seem sustainable. I wish they'd sew the wires in with sterner stuff!
It certainly gives a plunge!3 out of 5 stars

Don’t love the sateen fabric - I think it looks a bit cheap, but the fit and comfort level are great which is why I am happy with it.
It’s not a sexy bra, but the cleavage is fab!

Loved the comfort of this bra however I’ve found as a young woman that the bar creates a triangle shape to my breasts. Also the satin feel of this bar means that soft tops will slide about.
