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 was drawn to the colour of this, unfortunately even though the bra was fitted instore, I feel it just doesn’t compliment my shape in any way. I own many gorgeous bras by Bravissimo and this is the first bra I’ve ever been disappointed with, shame 🙁

I’ve been a fan of both the Niya & Satine bras for a few years now, but the outline of the cup seams usually can be seen when wearing tight fitted t-shirts.
However, this Smoothing Niya bra is a game changer. It has the usual Niya uplift, but it has added layer over the cups to minimise any seams.
The lovely assistant in the Chelmsford branch advised going up a cup size (from an f to a ff) & it fits perfectly.
Please hurry up Bravissimo & bring out different shades…..especially a nude shade.

I always struggle to get a smoothing plunge bra that fits well with being a larger cup size so was dubious about this one too but was very pleasantly surprised. I had to go up a cup size but this bra fits perfectly. The colour is gorgeous and it gives great uplift and a lovely shape especially on the j hook option. For me it gives a minimising effect which I love and I can also wear this under all styles of tops without the straps showing. An absolute winner for me and would love this in more colours especially nude and black.

Fabulous bra. It is another Alexa bra without the lacy back. It fits beautifully and the straps stay put. It also has a hook to allow for racer back closure. The green colour and thinner straps look stunning. I am not a fan of wide straps.

I love this bra just like I love several others purchased from Bravissimo. I have been a long time customer of a similar company, but I like Bravissimo better. These bras I have purchased from this company make my boobs go straight out and up, as opposed to having them in my arm area. It provides a much more slimming silhouette. This bra in particular is comfortable and flattering. I wear it with racerback black tank tops, and if a bit of the bra happens to occasionally peep out, it's zOK cause it shows a touch of sexy leopard print. I will buy all my bras and swimsuits from Bravissimo from here on .
