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.

Great shape and support with this nursing bra! Sizing options are excellent as it's hard to find. Something beautiful with a nice fit in my size (~34K) I wish I'd discovered this bra sooner!

Review by Katherine D on
As a 32 K I am at the larger end of the scale, I have a shorted distance between nipple and shoulder so when sitted correctly to my bust the design of the cut cut under my arm. I was gutted as qas so excited to find an underwired feeding bra in my size (this is literally the only one out there!) So would love to see it with a lower side profile. Took it back and was given a full refund as I had been fitted so was able to buy an alternative from Bravissimo which is working perfectly. Great concept and would live to see an altered version as really need underwire even while nursing

Review by Tatyana on
So let me start off by saying this is a great bra. It will support bigger busted ladies such as myself, however, there is a major design flaw causing the longevity of this this bra to not exceed 2-3 months. THE LACE!! The lace is very pretty however, if you have a larger cup size your breast are heavier and lifting becomes a more strenuous task. When lifting, your fingers WILL puncture the lace over time ( wear/tear and washing), leaving a gaping hole and opportunity for misshaping of your breast underneath clothing. This has happened to 2 out of the 3 I've purchased (the third one's clip broke)You may ask why I've purchased so many with this same design flaw. Well, I am a mother of three and 8 months into nursing, so I need something to support me as I wear a size 38KK and do not have many options. I ask that the designers make the same bra with a lace-free option and/or reinforce the lace with some kind of backing to prevent punctures.

Review by Xenica Y on
This bra is really comfortable, but the straps irritate my skin. Unfortunately, I didn’t discover this until after I washed the bra, so I can’t return it.
The sizing is also a little off. I am a 36G, but I have a shallow top and full bottom, so I find that a 36F fits me better. I ordered this in 36F but was given a 36G. I kept it because the cups fit perfectly, so the cup sizing may be a bit smaller for others. The band is also wider than normal. As a 36, ideally, I like my band to fit at the middle hook or later hook so I can tighten the band as the fabric loosens with time. With this bra, I had to start off with the tightest band, so it may have a shorter shelf life than my other bras if the band gets too loose. In short, it seems the cups are a hair small, and the band is a little big.
However, other than those minor issues, the bra itself is beautiful and comfortable (minus the itchy straps). My boobs feel secured and lifted, without hampering my milk production. If not for the straps, I would rate this 5 stars. As such, I would say it’s more accurately 4.5 stars.

Review by Bry on
I was skeptical of this when it arrived as the material feels a bit stiff and cheap (?) but after wearing it now for 4 months it’s clearly my favorite of my nursing bras. The support is fantastic - feels like a real bra and looks great under clothes. The internal sling is also nice as it provides a bit more coverage nursing in public as well as support. I’m actually writing this review as I’ve logged on to but another one! I got a 34G as I was pregnant and a bit wider in ribcage but now ordering my normal size of 32GG.

Review by Fiona M on
On my 2nd breastfeeding journey and this bra is a game changer. I visited the Edinburgh store for a fitting when my baby was 5weeks old. The lady who assisted me was friendly and knowledgeable. I feel fully supported and comfortable in the bra. Very easy to use clip. The soft underwire gives me the boost I wanted. Wearing the bra gives me a great lift and shape. Pretty lace detailing and soft moulded cups.
