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.

It’s not perfect, the material is a little itchy so I want to make a soft liner for it, but it is still better than having underwires digging into my armpits. It gives excellent lift and a lovely shape. It is stiff but it needs to be to hold up these boulders without the use of metal. When your breasts hang down to your belly button, it’s nice to have a bra to bum around in. Does something for my self-esteem.

Review by Louise on
Ok, so I bought this thinking it looks like a non wired bra that might actually sit flat against my ribcage. The picture certainly suggests that.
Unfortunately, it's not the case. I do think it's likely to work for say a D cup but no adjustment has been made for larger cup sizes.
It is comfortable enough but here's the thing, there is absolutely no fabric between the cup seams at the top and only 2cm between them at the bottom. My cleavage is 5 inches (from ribcage to end of boobage) and unless there is extra fabric to fit that 'dip' there's no way a non-wired bra will work for larger cup sizes without resulting in monoboob. I know that likely presents design problems without wire but surely there's something that can be done.
Also, it's supposed to be the band doing the heavy lifting with a well fitting bra. As this doesn't sit flush to the ribcage it's the straps doing all the work. They're strong enough straps but it's not ideal and means you're likely to have to keep hoiking the girls up all day!
