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.

Review by Laura on
I bought this bra in the green back just before Christmas. It’s amazing and the smoothing effect is brilliant! So good that I went back and bought the black. Got assisted in store (staff were fab as always) and took the bra home. Wore it yesterday and was disappointed to find the seams underneath are really showing through the bra and therefore my top. As I’ve removed the tags and have worn the bra I’m unable to return. A bit disappointing as I wanted it to be t-shirt bra. I’ve given 3 stars as the bra is still lovely and the staff in store were very helpful.

Review by Tammy T on
I bought the old version of Niya and found the oattern pf the lining on tje cups was noticeable under my top, but the new version solves this problem. I bought the green and it's a lovely colour, am very pleased. Shout out to Amanda in Milton Keynes for helping me find the correct size. A good tip is to try it on with and without the J strap at the back done up as this affected the fit on me. I went one cup size bigger based on this than on a balconette style because I found it more comfortable. I can wear this bra all day and it doesn't feel uncomfortable!

Review by Sallie M on
I have the previous version of the Niya bra, which although very comfortable, shows the stitching detail under t-shirts. This version is a satin style with no detail, that is much better and gives a smoother look, great under t-shirts. Will be buying more in different colours soon.

Underwire popped out after second wash, not sure if my one was faulty or if it’s the style, just be super careful with washing. Bra itself is great! Bravissimo did exchange the broken one so forgers crossed this one lasts

Review by Jenny M on
A very pretty bra, nice round shape. A little low on the sides in bigger sizes (for bigger girlies), and the neck clasp is nearly impossible to close on your own. Closing it is a must because the shape is not correct without the neck clasp closed. The shoulder straps are a bit too narrow for big, heavy girlies, so I can't wear this bra a full day. I really wanted to love this bra since I waited months for the delivery. I do think this bra will suit smaller girlies better than old and heavy ones.
Comfortable, supportive and a good colour5 out of 5 stars
