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 am amazed by all the good reviews on here for this bra. I bought this one as it's supposed to be highly recommended! Unfortunately, after wearing it for 4 hours, I couldn't take the pain any longer. The band size is too tight and the underwires dig into my underarm, which makes it extremely uncomfortable, so no I do not recommend this bra at all.

Looking for a replacement for Fantasie Alex bra which seems to have been discontinued. I tried Illusion before and found the underwire really rubbed under my arms. Decided to give it another try and obviously something has been modified as it is much more comfortable. Now my favourite bra.

I do like this bra, but not as comfortable as the other one I bought. Takes a bit more getting used to and needs to be worn in, where as the other one is comfortable straight away.

I now have about 4 Illusion bras in different colours. The fit is fab and the support is the best I have had in a long time. I wear 40H so need very good support and you get it from this bra.
