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 Jane on
I loved the idea of the swimsuit without the back strap on show and thought the photos looked great. It just wasn't as good in reality. It wasn't that easy to get on and the strap was just too tight. I felt it would have been too uncomfortable to wear for any length of time on the beach. Also in the front you could see the seam lines of the bra which took away from the appearance. The pink was a nice bright colour and the material very soft. I returned it

Lovely colour and fabric. Takes some getting into and as a size 16, 34HH bra size is perfect, body a little tight. Is it feasible to have swimwear with different cup and chest sizes but also approximate dress size?
Someone could be 34HH and size 12 or size 18?

Review by Laura H on
The fabric on the suit is nice, supportive and the colour has remained vibrant. As the fabric is heavier, it does take longer to dry. But it’s very flattering and comfortable. Good and supportive but the clasp is tricky to do up as you have to reach round and inside the suit to do it. This became a real pain since you have to take it off to go the loo.

I almost wish this one wasn't underwired, and just had the padded bust area as it would have made the swimsuit fit better, as I love the style of it. You are supported in the swimsuit though, but the sizing of hte body felt a little off.

The best swimsuit ever fit like a glove and is the most comfortable swimsuit I have ever had. When I get back from my holidays will buy a second one
