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 Gemma L on
I love this swimsuit! I have been nervous of buying a new swimsuit as my weight has fluctuated over the years and I found bikinis easier to adjust to my size. However, I wanted to do some more serious swimming and decided to try on a few. Although this one isn’t a ‘sports’ swimsuit I instantly felt supported and comfortable in it. I’ve since been Lane swimming and to Aquafit and been pleasantly surprised at how well it has held me in. I feel really confident walking around the poolside and the mesh panel at the waist really helps with the illusion of an hourglass figure. I highly recommend this swimsuit if you’re looking for something to boost your confidence and be super practical at the same time.

I was skeptical about getting a swimsuit based on bust size as I have quite a long torso and things have come up short because of this in the past. But for me at least this was a perfect fit! Bought as a plain swimsuit to feel covered comfortable and supported in doing my laps, but the waistband also makes it flattering too.

When is Bravissimo going to make a swimsuit for women under 5'4". I swim 3 x weekly and every time I need to renew my swimsuit I have this problem.
Does anyone know of an all-in-one swimsuit for short, bigger busted women

Not what i expected when i ordered, obviously did not check about the mesh section enough, but vey pleased with it. A good fit supports all the places you need, actually makes you look good in it, not usually happy with an underwired bra, but not too difficult to get into. Not tried it yet in water, so will have to see how it copes then.
