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.

I was so happy (and relieved) when I finally tried this bra. After many, many failed attempts, I was beginning to think that my perfect bra didn't exist and that I had to adjust my expectations. I wanted something in my correct size that also fit my shape (wide-rooted, fuller on the bottom, average projection) and was molded in order to be smooth under clothes and offer nipple coverage. This bra fits all of those requirements--thank goodness!! I measure a 28F and that size fits me perfectly in this bra. I also appreciate that the band has stretch but is firm, so it fits like a true 28. I look forward to buying this bra for years to come!

This bra is smoothing. Has significant structure so took a little time to get used to it under my arms. But looks great under everything

The Porcelain Elan Balconette bra to me is the best bra ever and I have brought these bra’s now for a number of years. They are so comfortable that you do not feel like you are wearing a bra and see less under clothes. The also make sure everything stays where it should.

Not as comfy as it’s predecessor, which I always felt was the Rolls Royce of bras - I still have one that I wear when feeling in need of absolute comfort!

Ordered in both black and white. Fits nice, the white one wire is uncomfortable on the right side, it also washed terrible. After 1 wash it looks like its a few months old.
