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 love the Nova Lounge Bra and just ordered it a second time in quick succession. For a wireless bra, it gives a pretty good shape and support and feels really nice.
For the last few years, I've exclusively worn the Panache underwired sports bra for everyday wear, so the Nova Lounge bra is much softer than what I'm used to, but I still feel comfortable wearing it out and about.
I only wish the straps were wider and a bit padded; they're digging into my shoulders, and there's a seam that hits the exact spot where it can do the most itching "damage".

This is my favourite bra. No wires and it's really supportive and gives a great shape under my clothes. Lovely soft fabric and pretty colours, what's not to like. Also offers some separation of the boobs and looks really flattering. A firm favourite!

Soft, comfortable and wearable apart from straps - they twist and go thin and really dig in to shoulder like a knife. I think the design could be improved by a stronger deeper back / bodice band - which would give more support around the rib cage and take some of the weight off the shoulders. However, the shoulder straps appear to be of bad design and construction - they twist, ( no strength) they appear to be unable to lie flat and really dig in.
I don’t know why these things can’t have a bit more thought put into them !
(I hope you read these reviews ??)

Bought the bra for post surgery and it is great. So soft and comfortable, you can hardly feel you are wearing it. It looks exactly as it does in the picture and I have had comments from the surgical team about how pretty it looks. Great colour too. Not as uplifting as a wired bra, but still supportive. No seams to annoy any scars and stretches over any dressings really easily. Might buy another one - so comfortable.

Wasn't sure about this bra at first but when I put it on I couldn't believe how comfortable and supportive it was. I've always had trouble with non wired bras giving me a mono boob. With the Nova bra I had no issues, it hugs the boobs and creates a really flattering shape. Now I've bought one in every colour.

Never thought I’d get on with a bra this style - once I got used to a more relaxed shape - thus bra is so comfortable. Great service via in-line chat with Danielle sorting out sizing .

Very happy with the nova lounge bra. Have had one before in black and really pleased to have it in a lighter colour for summer. Wear it all day every day as am fed up with underwired bras and this is the only non wired bra that I have found that keeps my boobs seperate and comfortable
