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’m 5ft 8 and this is designed with a shorter person in mind, I kept them as the cup size is right but would appreciate longer or adjustable straps as the lace band rides up.

Lovely bra but I didn’t realise the straps don’t adjust which means it’s not that supportive

Feels like you don’t have a bra on but there’s still medium level support. I like how lightweight it feels. I also like that there’s no metal in the straps (allergic to it). The only downside is it gives me monoboob - boobs squashed together in the middle with no separation. Even if it try and move my boobs outwards, I have monoboob five mins later. Par for the course with bralettes but Bravissimo, is there any way to tackle this with a wire that curves up in the middle, but doesn’t curve up under your arms please? That would be amazing!

This style is my favourite! I have 2 of the night dresses and one of these bras. 2 things: it’s not the kind of bralette a large breasted woman can wear outside around people, it’s flattering but not that flattering so keep for lounge purposes (yoga too); it’s not completely true to size, I usually wear 32G but I went for a 30GG/H and it fits perfectly.

Review by Jacqueline M on
I have to say that as a lady with a large bust that this bra is extremely disappointing. I could only wear this in the house as it gives no support and no shape at all and I feel it quite uncomfortable on my shoulders, I could not wear it to bed to sleep with. I have bought cheaper bralettes elsewhere and had been disappointed, so I had high hopes for this one as its certainly not cheap, but it gave me same poor results as cheap ones. Sorry but I certainly couldn’t recommend.
Nice idea but...3 out of 5 stars

I like the idea of the bralette but the shoulder straps are not adjustable and are too small. The cup sizing also seems very much on the small side. It would be nice if sizing was more consistent across different styles and brands. It is so difficult when trying to buy a new style online.

I was delighted with the colour and fit of the bra, having just had surgery.
