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.

Do end up with mono boob situation, not the most comfortable and certainly not a smooth line under clothing. The non padded sleep bra I bought at the same time was so much more comfortable.

Review by Katherine D on
SO pleased with my new bras. I was very fed up with the fact that after breast surgery, most manufacturers seemed to think that women didn’t need to feel feminine any more . Having to wear a non wired bra because of scarring, most of the bras available on the market made me feel like a sack of potatoes! I was introduced to Bravissimo by my daughter recently and bought your lovely red post surgery bra which I have worn to death ! I was therefore delighted to see that Bravissimo had listened to my request to make something similar in a different colour and have now produced an ivory coloured style. I am finding this bra fits me well , is very comfortable with my prosthesis and washes well. Thank you so much Bravissimo for this lovely bra.
Ps it’s not just the youngsters who want to look pretty, I am 81 yrs old!

Wow, thank you Bravissimo.
I have been waiting for a post surgery bra in another colour from you. This fits the bill perfectly.
The style is very similar to the red post surgery bra and the sizing is the same, which helped to find my size (thank you to the customer support team who helped with this)
The Ivory colour is just right. My prosthetic fits into it easily and is a good fit. The lace still makes me feel womanly.
It was tested out at a silent disco with a lot of dancing and held everything firmly in place and kept my shape.
Love, Love, Love it and finally another colour. I will be ordering another.
