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 was a comfortable swimsuit for laps and sizing was good for me. The plastic on the back clasp is quite sharp though. Despite this, I was happy at first. However, the underwriting is already coming out after only a few wears. I with there were more non-wired options in my size.

Worn this 3 times and then the underwear came out. Only hand washed too - really disappointed given the price. In terms of fit it’s really comfy, I ordered a 40g as find I need the next size up in swimwear generally

Review by Elaine T on
I am cursed, or as some may say blessed, with large boobs and as not being in my youth they need a lot of support. I feel self-conscious in a swimsuit so was hoping this with additional uplifting support I would feel happier....however the straps were so difficult to fasten and underwire made it so hard get the swimsuit in place. For smaller ladies I am sure this would suit, but unfortunately not for me. I will keep searching!

Feels comfortable and supportive when swimming, good fit on the bust but very slightly long in the body for me. Slightly fiddly fastening.

Love the way you can change the straps to fit better. Good support. True to size, upstairs!
But feel the bottom could be a little bigger for us wider in the beam! So a little small downstairs.
