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.

Review by Michelle E on
I had previously purchased the Amalfi tankini which I loved, but sadly it’s no longer available. I asked Bravissimo for something similar and they recommended this. I'm normally a 34h bra, and they suggested a 36hh as the Amalfi was a size up, too. This top was so big it could have been a dress. It was halfway down my thigh, and when ruched up it bagged so much. I think it would have fit me well 9 months pregnant. The pattern is nice though, would recommend trying this on in-store.

Loved this style and print but the cups did not have support and they flopped down. Disappointed as the print and style suited

Loved the colour, but this was more of a dress on me at 5:2. I could have gone down a cup size but couldn’t see that would make any difference to length. I tried pulling the sides up but ended up with too much material around my middle

Review by Lisa on
I was really disappointed in this tankini. I have purchased all of my swimwear from bravissimo so was really looking forward to this purchase but the fit was awful. There was far too much material in the tummy area. I tried pulling the ruched sides to give it some shape but made it look worse. The straps were far too long even when tightened as much as possible. Previous reviews were spot on about it being very unflattering, wished I had taken notice of them. The size around the bust area was fine it was just the extra material around the hips and tummy area, and it was sooooo long. Sent back for a refund.
So pleased5 out of 5 stars
