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 purchased this swimsuit as I am learning to swim. I am pleased with it and hopefully I’ll soon be swimming without the ‘stabiliser’s’!

Review by Debbie on
Really disappointed with this, have now returned a second swimsuit and received a refund (got a replacement after the first one). They lasted only 8-10 weeks each before the lycra degraded, shed 'white bits' and became see-through, especially under the bust, on the stomach and back. The store apologised and mentioned that a number of these swimsuits have been returned recently because of the same problem. I purchased an orange/purple/black one and then replaced with the navy blue. I swim in a pool twice a week and was meticulous about rinsing thoroughly, washing according to instructions etc, as it cost £62 and I wanted it to last! Very disappointed as it was very comfortable and fit well. Back to the drawing board now, trying to find a costume that fits me!
PS I noticed on previous reviews that people have 'thrown them away' when this has happened, don't do that! return to store for a refund (up to 6 months old) and that lets the makers know what is happening so they can hopefully change their manufacturing or at least put a warning on that they last 10 weeks if you swim in a pool!
