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.

I’m new to bravissimo and I’m loving that my boobs are now where they should be!
However, I am overweight and 2 of the 3 bras I bought are quite uncomfortable. I’m hoping it’s because of the extra weight I carry, that I can rectify and indeed am trying to! Fingers crossed the weight loss will ease the discomfort as my boobs feel and look great in my new bras!

Not too sure if it fits properly. The fitter said I needed to go up a size in this style. I’m not too sure.

This is the second Illusion bra I have bought, it gives me a nice shape and the wires sit in a slightly different position from other styles I have, so I can swap and change any time I have a "digging in" day.
The pants that go with it are a good fit too, coverage without being Granny Pants!
Lovely bra. Comfortable fit but I am not entirely sure I have the right size.4 out of 5 stars

Review by Barbara W on
I came to the Birmingham shop a few weeks ago and received excellent attention from expert staff. However, I had been wearing a 38 and was persuaded that I should be a 36. I therefore bought a 36E. Although it fits beautifully around the bust it feels incredibly tight around my body . I have washed it a few times now in the hope that it may loosen a little but that doesn’t seem to be happening.
