I bought x2 of these bikini’s and although it looks pretty and gives great shape I found the back extremely tight and the straps are very thin & sit to the far outer side of your shoulders & left me with really bad bruises I’m usually a 30G so that that’s what I ordered. I contacted support team and sent photos of it fitting perfectly and showing bruises where the straps sit. Not happy with this bikini at all!

I bought this to be a strapless bikini and bra top, as per the photo, and I must say it is brilliant! It's so flattering and supportive and, as with all Bravissimo swimwear, much better as a strapless bra than strapless bras from the lingerie section. That being said, I just could not detach the straps by ordinary means! No matter how hard I tried, and I tried hard. In the end, I had to use scissors and cut them off which means, yes, it will never be worn again with straps. That's absolutely fine by me because I didn't want to wear it that way, but rather odd, I thought. That's why I took a star off for fit. Otherwise fantastic as a supportive strapless and very useful and attractive.

I never in a million years thought I would wear a bikini ever again but thanks to one of the beautiful fitters in the Oxford St store I felt like a goddess on the beach! I went in to Bravissimo for the first ever time to try on costumes and with no fitting felt my usual upset but the lady outside asked if I wanted a fitting and wow, what a difference Lady went off to get some costumes and came back with a few bikini tops, I said no way! She said humour me and promised I would be ok. I love this bikini top! Can't believe it is so comfortable AND supportive. It defies gravity without feeling like a cheese grating wire around the back. I left with this, bottoms (largest Bridget Jones ones but I promise next time I'll dare to wear more petite ones), 2 bras and an actual costume for lane swimming. I will definitely be back to buy more for my next holiday. I wish I could remember the lady's name who helped me as she turned what is usually a really stressful try-on and go home to cry time into a I'm uplifting experience. To the lady in Oxford Street store with wild Carole King curly hair, THANK YOU!

I have just bought this, did go up a size for the top and down in the cup but this is normal when I purchase a bikini. Overall love it and a good fit.

If you like the Panache Porcelain Elan strapless bra then you’ll love this bikini top’s fit with or without straps. The cups have a vertical seam inside and a plastic clasp on the back which seems secure enough. I have had mishaps in the past with bikini plastic clasps snapping under the strain at awkward moments but I trust this bikini will hold up!

Bought this bikini top today after trying on 5 others. It is quite honestly the best fitting bikini top I have bought in a while. The staff were more than helpful and I tried it at home with my black bikini bottoms and finally I have the perfect bikini. I bought a 36FF. I found the 34 FF( which I always buy in a bra size) was too tight at the back. Thanks Bravissimo I feel very comfortable in this top and don’t look huge on top. I am only 5’2” and small mostly everywhere else so thanks again.

I’ve shopped with Bravissimo for over 15 years and haven’t ever felt compelled to write a review, this bikini changed my mind. I typically avoid strapless anything due to the shape more often than not being less than flattering. This bikini top is amazing though. I have road tested this week in the British sea (yes, I’m mental) and also gardening completely strapless! Hooray no strap marks! Anyone who is dubious about strapless give this one a go, it’s quite structured and really supportive even without the straps on.

This is a great great looking, fabulous fitting bikini, even without the straps, but the fabric discoloured so quickly I was very disappointed. I bought it for a holiday and wore it quite a lot during that time, but even though I washed it out after every wear it still ended up going yellow and horribly discoloured after just a few weeks. Very disappointed and would expect much better wear from branded swimmers. I've never had a set deteriorate this quickly before and I swim a lot every summer as I live in Hong Kong.
