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.

Such a great fit and a comfortable bra! I had my first fitting at the Manchester store, and Chloe, was the lady that helped me. She was great and found the perfect bra for me!

Review by G on
I bought this bra as I needed a multiway. I had already bought the strapless one but neither of them worked for the outfit since the bra was too high up in the front and could be seen peeping out at the underarms. Oh well. BUT that’s not why I’m sending it back. The seams in front are totally visible through clothes. This is the same problem with the strapless one I bought. For £40, it’s not worth having a second bra that shows through clothes like this. And as if the visible seams weren’t trademark enough, this bra has a little gold ‘B’ in the middle. I didn’t like that either. Love this site and the shops. Normally find it’s better quality than the other site I use. Probably won’t buy another ‘B’ branded bra though.

The Niya bra gives me a great shape and is comfortable to wear. If I’m going to be super critical, I’d say the top of the cups are fairly generously cut, (but that could be my post menopausal sagging 38GGs) and the shoulder straps could be much wider and padded actually on my shoulders. I have bought this padded, plunge bra in black, white and 2 in skin tone online and in-store I bought the navy blue Niya. Recommended.

I’m a big fan of the Niya - have had many of the black and nude over the years and was excited to get the navy lace version for something a bit different. However I feel the cup shape is slightly different - and not in a way that suits me. I’ll wear this - but will be hoping the black & nude don’t get changed.

I went in shop to get a bra for my sons wedding next week. Service from Amanda was amazing. Explained the dress I'm wearing (forgot to bring with me) didn't know my bra size. Would rather wear a crop bra just for comfort. I was wearing a bra I just brought from a shop for the dress and knew I couldn't wear it for 11hr too painful 40F. Amanda helped me try different styles and then Amanda brought in the Niya Lace. Wow is all I can say. Comfortable, perfect fit and absolutely amzing on. Would definitely buy again. Amazing service.

I have been waiting a lifetime for a plunge bra in a K cup that actually fits and looks great. This gives a great uplifted round shape, Compared to the Satine that gives a funny shape if your top heavy. Why oh why isn’t this done in a nude up to a K? I can’t be the only woman looking for this!
