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.

Tried and bought this at the Cheltenham store. Not only is an ultra-supportive and comfortable sports bra, it's beautiful too. Love the colour.

I've been using this bra for anything from walks to push ups and stationary cycling. It's comfy and supportive. I wear it when I do DIY around the house. I've even worn it all day and it was still comfy. The racer back feature is great for higher intensity workouts too.

I won't wear anything else but I will repeat what I said the last time which is I wish the straps over the shoulder were adjustable too, as the J hook position is really tight on the top of the shoulder.

No headaches, no bruises, no chafing, no sweaty mess. Encapsulation style does make boobs a bit more prominent but I wear with a loose running shirt. Can’t believe I have found a sports bra for high intensity work that causes me no bother. No pressure on traps and doesn’t rub.

I have done 5k, 10k and a Hyrox (8k with functional workouts) in this bra and it has not aggravated my skin at all. I usually really struggle with sports bras, as they make my back hurt or give me a headache. I thought I’d try an encapsulation style bra, I had been using very tight sports yoga tops but wanted to start running and increase intensity. It does make your boobs more prominent, but I wear a loose running shirt (Lululemon relaxed fit). I get blisters and burns from clothes, or bruises on shoulders from sports bras and I have had none of that with this, a truly perfect sports bra! I bought my size first 28HH and it was too high on the sides cutting into my armpits. The shop assistant strongly encouraged me to try a cup size down as the bra sized large, I had my doubts as I often find things don’t fit around my armpits/shoulders. 28H was perfect. God bless Bravissimo and their experienced fitters! Got me back to running! No headaches as no pressure on traps.

I have used these wired sports bras for years and they are so reliable for firm support. I have done trampolining classes and run marathons in them. A really sure, safe bet!
