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.

This is really pretty and a lovely colour. The halterneck style was slightly less comfortable for me

This is a pretty and supportive bra. However, I have marked this as 4 stars as the lace straps at the back of the bra irritate and rub my skin. Although this gives my shoulders a relief I rarely wear it as I find it so itchy. Also, after one hand wash, the bra puckered along the front cleavage. Shame as this style is a good concept.

Looks very pretty but not right for me.
My boobs were hanging out of the sides.
Also a bit of a faff to put on.

This is hands down the most comfortable bra I own. Gives a great shape and support. Having narrow shoulders all straps continually fall off my shoulders so its a dream having a design which stops this. It would be great if there could be a staple set of colours available (black/ white/ nude).
So so3 out of 5 stars

Difficult to do fastening behind neck. Bra cups wrinkle up underneath when wearing. However gives good shape/cleavage when wearing

Review by Casie on
The alexa is by far the best bra I've had in a long time! It's so comfortable, supportive, and no more shoulder straps slipping down OR digging in. In my experience, the cups do run a bit small but just going up 1 cup size fixes that. I really REALLY hope bravissimo doesn't discontinue this model. Please don't!
