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 ordered a 32 H, I probably should’ve gone a size up, but dear god, it looked like the bra was for a 32 C!! It was tiny!
Too wide, do not size up in the band, order normal width!3 out of 5 stars

I sized up in band size as per recommendation, and I could fit a fist underneath the band and still had room to spare, so way too big! This of course also compromised the support it gave me so I can't give an honest review on that. So, unfortunately, I need to return, which sucks as my old sports bra has broken down.

This sports bra is just amazing! I am not a runner or any from of high intensity sports person, but at the gym or when I am doing heavy work on renovation or out with my scout group it's perfect. I don't have to worry about my boobs being in the way because they are securely in place in my bra and I can still breath. I did not have a fitting with this one, as I have with all my other bras bought here, but I read the reviews both here and on a Swedish site.
The only negative about this bra is that it is very hard to hook up because of the to levels of hooking it has. I have at last figured out how to get it hooked and I first hook both levels up and then pull it on. It is tight and it takes time, but i works and then my boobs are in place for the rest of the day.

It has been a few years since I have bought a sports bra but this one is absolutely perfect. I bought my normal bra size and it holds me in fantastically. I did a HIT workout in it this morning and didn't feel conscious that I was even wearing it at all!
Made such a difference!5 out of 5 stars

This is a great sports bra. I made sure I went up a back size and solved the difficulty of getting it on by clipping up at the front. It's extremely comfortable, if a little tight at the back, and I would definitely recommend this.

Review by Yvette on
This is my running bra. Now I don't run very fast nor very far (yet). I'll do about 7 miles a week and this bra is so comfy and supportive. Sometimes I need to run after my dog on a walk in my normal bra and then the hands have to come up to clamp the girls down... This bra allows me to just run and enjoy without worries. And it's pretty enough to run only in it (when the weather allows). It's a little bit tricky to put on with the back closure but it's worth it for the support. I've never left a review for a bra, but this one is worth the effort.

I love Bravissimo bras and bikinis so was surprised by this item. I ordered my normal size and it just didn't give the support needed. I would not be comfortable running in this one! I really would love Bravisomo to do a brooks style sports bra with adjustable straps so you can choose the support level, it would be amazing! But, never the less, ended up sending this one back as it was not the product for me.

Review by Marisca on
This is comfortable, and once you know where to put your hands the upper clasp, I found the upper clasp easy to do up. It is comfortable and supportive, but not attractive. I went up a back size and kept cups size as usual and it fits well. Beware, though, it definitely gives the uniboob look. However, for horse riding in winter, where you will probably have a jacket on, no-one can see it. I often wear a 'boobband' with other bras but didn't need it with this one. Bravissimo, you should stock boobbands - fantastic bits of kit for the well endowed.
Great therefore for winter pursuits, when you can hide the uniboob but need the support without an underwire.
