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.

Oh my god I didn't expect this bra to be a good as it is. It fits beautifully and you get support. I am definitely going to get the other colours

I don’t normally review, but I thought I would note… Get the right size!
It’s easy not to, because it’s so comfortable, and I nearly came out 2 sizes too small.
I’ve noticed some have mentioned side-slippage, and I noticed at the last minute - when I nearly bought in the G, that while it felt great, and looked great from the front, I was escaping from the sides. When I sized up 2x, it was perfect.
Yet to experiment with wearing out of the house, but I think it’s got potential.

I love the Nova bra, and have two black and two blue already. So no surprises I purchased the blush pink when it became available.
It’s a great colour to wear under pale tops, but I have found the seem on the cups can show through a tighter fitting top. I hate the traditional “nude” or “American Tan” colour of underwear designed to not be seen under clothing, so this blush pink offers a more modern but subtle option.
Still super comfortable and easily worn all day, and offering good boob separation. I hate my boots squashed together and sweaty.
Loving the Nova bra.

I bought this because it looked comfortable the reviews were good, so good I tried it again as though I must be wrong. This bra does no hold you in at the sides and it comes up big around the back. My boob has gone from a 34B in my 30s to 36C in my 40s and then during menopause 36GG and slimmed down to 36f now. The gals need a lot of help and this bra does nothing for anyone with a big bust.

Soft, comfortable fabric and great if you are vertical but if I lounge on my left side my right boob slips out a bit. If I lounge on my right side the side seam digs in but this might just be me!
