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.

Review by Laura on
I have a dedicated lover of the Satine bra and have not strayed away from that for years. I have always been very self conscious of any non-padded bra because of the increased risk and chances of nipples and skin colour etc showing through. On big boobs like mine every top is tight across the chest so hiding biology proves a challenge. This is the first non-padded I have tried and not only did it still give great coverage, I was enormously happy with the shaping this gives! I gave up long ago trying to pretend my boobs were anything but big and heartily embrace their size, however finding a bra that gives a wonderful shape and is comfortable has proved a challenge.
The shaping on this surpasses the Satine and I have to say that my husband is a big fan of this bra shape under tops. Very reminiscent of the 60's bombshell shaping which I have never managed to get before. Uplift, separation without sending the girls under the armpits and no uni-boob.
I also want to mention the straps on this. A long held annoyance of mine is how straps can sit at the edge of your shoulders, constantly threatening to take a dive down your arms. You seem to have a choice between constantly yanking them up or tightening the straps so much it causes welts in your shoulders (especially with the weight of JJ boobs). The shaping on the Annie is such that the straps seem to naturally angle up towards the neck so the straps naturally stay where I have wanted straps to stay for years!! This also, I think, contributes to the great shaping of this bra. It acts to pull the girls upwards and inwards slightly. The suede/brushed cotton type finish on the straps also make them enormously comfortable.
The grey stars also don't show through as much as I feared as a replacement for my nude Satine.
Well done Bravissimo, you have converted me (so much so I have just ordered another 2 Annie bras!). Now please, can you you base more J+ bras on this shaping and design?!

Super bra and fit great/true to size! I just returned it because it was not what I was expecting. It gave me really pointy cone boobs. If you’re into that then it’s a great bra, but the fit looks nothing like the photo.

Review by Brynna M on
When I got this bra, I was still experimenting in trying to find my size. This one came, and the Bravissimo team (in true form) helped me so much to determine that the size I had gotten was still a bit big in the band and small in the cups. Unfortunately, the size I need isn't made in the Annie :(
However, even in the incorrect size, I'm still keeping this bra. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the stars, but they are so cute on. I love the color, and the straps are soft and thick, while still looking lovely. Again, even in the wrong size, this bra supports me like no other I have tried, and that's the biggest thing I need--loads of support!
For me, I find I can't wear this for more than about five hours without dying to take it off, but I fully know that most of that is likely my sizing issue, not the bra. I hope someday they can make the Annie in a 28 band so I can experience the full glory of this beautiful bra!

This bra puts them where I want them - front and centre. It gives me a natural look (note that my natural = pointy! also full on bottom and centre, and soft) without smooshing them together. Amazing!
The colour really works for my skin colour - I'd be extra happy if you made it in this pink without the stars, as most beiges run too yellow for me.
The main fabric of the cups is fairly rigid, so I find this very supportive (others might find it a bit thick and sweaty).
The lace section is not too bouncy but I'd prefer something unembroidered.
Please, Bravissimo, keep it up with the narrower wires! Also if you could include info on narrower vs wider wires and cups in your descriptions generally I would certainly like that.

Review by Wendy S on
I like this bra OK. It gives a very forward silhouette which I like and which makes me look slimmer.
I had to try several before I got the correct fit. I opted for the KK cup.
I don't get why the latest bra's seem to have metallic clips instead of "self coloured"
Anyway it's a decent bra at first wear and its quite pretty too

Review by Emily G on
I so wanted this to be perfect - I loved when it came out and so ordered it when it was time for new bras. It offered a lovely upfront rounded shape, but even with adjusting I couldn’t get the cups to sit right. When adjusting strap to help they ended up rubbing. Also was tight around the band compared to others ordered at same time. Therefore sadly returned.
