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 bra is supportive and looks good under T shirts etc. I’ve docked a star because the top band looks a little wavy and I worry this might get worse with wear and washing?!

This bra is true to size and is comfortable so I’ve ordered more because of how comfortable they are, however I have noticed that the straps keep slipping off my shoulders which is frustrating

Love this bra! It provides great coverage, soft and comfortable, and fits really well.
I've been feeling a bit doughy with the lack of outdoor activity during lockdown, and was looking for a comfy bra with a bit of extra coverage so I didn't get any bulges while wearing, and this does the job perfectly!
It sits really nicely around my underarms, and it's so soft it doesn't dig in painfully, but smooths everything out very nicely!
I'm thinking of buying a few more, it's the best bra I've bought in years

The buckles on the straps do not stay in place... they slip so every day you have to readjust them.

This is a pretty bra. The seams are nice and flat with no bumps..I wear a lot of t-shirts. The fit is good with no ‘spillage’. It’s good to find a bra that fits! There is one thing that takes off a star..I’m 5’10”..the straps are a little short even fully extended. If I go up a size the bra is then too big. I’m not sure why manufacturers can’t just make the straps longer, they are adjustable.
I won’t be purchasing again because although I was on the US site..there is now a branch in New York..my items were sent from the UK & I was charged an additional exchange transaction fee after the fact..it was nice while it lasted..
