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 alison P on
I wear jersey tops and Tshirts and don't want my bra to show through. Although it looks a bit lacey, this bra is actually very smooth and works well. The other plus for me is it doesn't come too high under my arms, so the wires don't stick in at all, even when I sit down. I've ordered 2 more in different colours, so that must mean I'm happy with it!

I'm a 34G and this bra is very supportive and gives a lovely outline. I particularly like the deep back which smooths out the dreaded back fat.
Will be buying g again

Supportive, comfortable, looks fantastic and washes well. I’m usually a 32F, sometimes a 30G depending on style. I needed a 30G in this bra

Love the bra. I've not worn underwired bras until very recently. My only problem was a slight gaping at the top of the cup. Maybe me because I'm trying to lose weight so I'm prepared to concede my measurements may have changed slightly!

I love the Illusion bra. Great support, gives you a very curvy shape and very comfortable to wear. Will be buying in other colours too.
