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.

The style is lovely , but as I need the bra top in a 40 h I find the top fat too bud it’s too long and not sure that the darts are in the wrong place , I need to get the needle and cotton out to alter .

Review by Lynne on
Sized up in the back because I tend to expand in hot climates, and in a back size 40 my options are limited, otherwise I probably wouldn't have considered this as I didn't think it looked that great on the model.
Overall I didn't like the style, didn't like the fabric (too thick), and really didn't like the fiddly extra half lining between the bra part and the outside. It was badly bunched and puckered all the way round the underarm area - not sure whether this is a common problem because of the number of layers of fabric stitched together or whether I just got a bad one, but it went straight back.
Can't comment on the swim briefs because once I had tried the top I knew it wasn't even worth trying them on.

As a 34F woman in her 70s this did not work for me at all. I didn’t like the fabric or the construction of the ‘bra’ part. Prob looks great on a young body

I'm not easy to please, but this top is soft, comfy, a good fit, easy to get on and off under a change towel (step into it). So much easier than a full costume

I never thought I’d sway from a halter neck tankini with having bigger boobs, but I must say I love this and it’s the most comfortable one ever and flattering.
Only thing is I wish they had multiple colours to choose from so I could buy another.
