Swimsuit FAQs
We want to make sure you find the perfect swimsuit. So we’ve answered a few of the most common questions below.

What swimming costume is best for support?
The best swimming costume for support is one that fits you comfortably and securely. Everyone is different, what works for one body might not be right for another. We offer a range of supportive swimsuits with hidden panels, extra inner clasps, tummy control and underwired cups so you can feel secure. If you’re not sure what’s right for you, don’t hesitate to reach out to our expert team.

What’s the best swimsuit for large bust support?
The best swimsuits for larger busts use bra cup sizing to ensure the right support and fit. That means you can choose your cup size when shopping for Bravissimo swimsuits, and it should fit like your favourite bra. We also offer swimming costumes with underwires, thicker straps and extra inner clasps to help keep bigger boobs comfy and in place.

What should I wear over a swimsuit?
You don’t need to wear anything over a swimsuit, unless you’re looking for a little extra coverage. It’s down to personal preference, but a kaftan, sarong or a mesh dress would complement Bravissimo swimming costumes perfectly. Whether you’re choosing classic black, block colours, or vibrant florals, it’s a great excuse to accessorise your poolside outfit.

How do you wash a swimming costume?
You don’t need to wash your Bravissimo swimming costume every time you wear it; but you should rinse it with cold water when you get out of the pool or sea. This helps preserve the fabric by washing away excess chlorine and salt. When you’re ready to wash, handwash with warm water and a gentle detergent.
