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 Ingle on
I bought this for my holiday in June so apart from trying it on I haven’t worn it yet. However, I went into the shop to buy a swimsuit, not expecting to find a tankini to fit me, I also felt that at nearly 80 I would be too old to wear one! It fitted perfectly, the sales assistant commented that age does not matter these days and I was convinced that it was a good buy. I never did buy the swimsuit but am delighted with this tankini which fits to perfection. I will certainly buy all swimwear from Bravissimo’s where I was made to feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble.

This top is amazing. Fits beautifully, keeps flabby tummy covered, and supports really well. Very comfortable to wear. Normally sized 34G but had to return for a 36G which is a perfect fit.

Tested on holiday. Better bust shape, longer, and quicker drying than my old bravissimo vest tops, also doesn't 'wander' when swimming, and I feel secure and tidy .

I am a standard 36F size 16 medium height female but the shape and design of the vest is huge and when swimming it floats up round my chest and exposes the bra underneath. Surely a tankini top should be designed to fit snugly. This is terrible

Really pleased with this tankini top. Its the most supportive 'bikini' top ive ever found. Really looking forward to wearing it on my holidays.
