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.

This is very flattering and surprisingly comfortable for the plunge look. Annoyingly one strap was sewn on the wrong way round so will have to return.

Review by Julie on
I loved this bra when I saw it instore and tried it on. My usual size is 32HH, which they didn't have in stock, so I tried it in the 32J. There was only a tiny bit of excess fabric at the top of the cups which is not unusual is these styles, so I decided to go for it! I think my usual HH cup would have been slightly too small - I am quite full and think I would have a bit of overspill!
However, when I got home and tried it on again under a few tops, I realised that the fabric/underwiring under the arms came up quite high, and slightly digs in. I had noticed it when I tried it on, but loved the set so much I kind of dismissed it! But when wearing it with sleeveless tops, it was going to be visible at the armholes. So I am reluctantly going to return it.
If you like the look, try it out. It's surprisingly supportive!

I have this in white and it is very comfortable. The band of the black is much smaller and I had to go up a size.

Very nice looking bra, pleased with the fact it’s made using recycled materials, more of that please, but on me the style cut across the flesh at the front. I’m older, less firm and though I had the correct size for me it wasn’t good. A shame as I can no longer wear underwires with any comfort.

Review by Paula G on
This caught my eye in the Guildford store and I was very pleasantly surprised how well it fit. I’d also seen it on one of the lingerie ladies I follow on Instagram. It’s a secure plunge with a high apex and I like the style as I don’t fall out the middle. I got my usual Bravissimo size of 32G as it fit perfectly. The cheeky brief is very flattering, I’d presumed I’d be my normal Medium but it turned out to be too big so exchanged for the Small. Can’t wait to wear it when the weather sorts itself out!

Although fitted for this bra I find that it is too tight, should have returned them but never got around to it!
Now Ordered replacements in a back size up.
I think that with the additional inches in the band it will be great.

I found the side wires too long so not as comfortable as I would have liked
