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’ve worn this style for many years and been very pleased with it.
But now …. Oh dear whatever has happened. Bought two bras which appeared to fit well. However after wearing for a few hours I found the wire was so high under my arm that it became very painful and sore. This shouldn’t happen. Unfortunately it was already worn so couldn’t return it (but sent the unworn one back)
Won’t be buying again

The gore is very high and digs into my breast bone, particularly if I bend over. Not comfortable at all. Shame. Also the cups on 34J and 36H both come up a little big

I haven’t worn Panache bras for some years and don’t know why as nice style and comfortable. I would have liked more colours and matching panties with VPL, but perhaps it’s in the pipeline - who knows!

This is one of my favorite fitting bras so far. I usually wear a 34DD but I'm consistently a 34F in Bravissimo sizing except their sports bras (34DD/E). So, in Bravissimo sizing - this runs true to size for me. This bra is super comfortable and lightweight. The sheer fabric gives it a 'barely there' feel but is still supportive and has great shape.
Has all the makings of a great tshirt bra, almost.....
My big issue with this bra is that the cute design stitching is surprisingly thick(!) and shows through under a lot of light and mid-weight fabrics which makes this bra less functional, less convenient than others which is very disappointing.
I hope Bravissimo adds more options for this bra that include a "no-stitch" design (just solid sheer fabric), preferably in at least black and nude color options.
