When my mum first took me to have my first bra, I cried like a baby, I didn’t want to have boobs let alone wear a bra. Here I am many, many, many years later and I’ve got the boobs I didn’t want large and in cumbersome. I’m now menopausal and I’ve got to the point that I still don’t like having big boobs, like it even less now in that all these wires digging into me, always uncomfortable, always wanting to take my bra off and as every large lady knows not wearing one is also very uncomfortable. I like this, for the first time I can wear something with no wires (yay), something that is comfortable (yay), something that supports the boobs (yay) and something similar to a crop top that I have always envied other women being able to wear that I never could. Some people may not like them because they don’t support in the same way an underwire bra can, but being menopausal I’d give comfort over that, and that I can live with. This is from someone who has always had to wear a bra, and I mean always, this for me is a big bonus.

I have written a review for the grey sleep bra which I love so much that I ordered the lovely navy one. I took advantage of the free p+p and it arrived at the beginning of the week. I think the navy one is slightly smaller than the grey - probably because each is made from slightly different material. However, that said I wore it last night - really comfortable and this morning I still feel well supported and if I was allowed to open the door to the postman I would do so with confidence. And if Bravissimo brought this out in other colours I will definitely buy more!

This bra is so soft, comfy and holds “the girls” up nicely. I haven’t slept in it yet (only received it this morning) but have even been confident to wear it around the house and answer the door! On advice from your lovely online girls, I went up a cup size but kept to my normal back size. This was spot on advice (thanks Lianne).

Finally a bra that is comfortable and supportive and easy to put. I purchased a 36FF - it is a little tight but I hoping once washed it may ease a little. I wore it on my morning walk and I am really pleased with my purchase. The grey and white is a bit wishy washy, pink, light blue, teal etc would be good. I will order the navy one too.

The back straps are far too narrow, not a very strong material (I thought I’d ripped it putting it on!), and the bottom elastic is tighter than the top so, if like me, you carry a bit of back fat it causes very unflattering and uncomfortable sagging round your back. It's maybe fine for someone with no extra weight but if you are a bit on the cushioned side it’s no use.

I purchased this from the Glasgow store and got the usual fab, efficient and helpful service. I absolutely hate not wearing a bra and my current sleep bras were actually threadbare. I tried on the padded bra, moulded version and this bra. Much preferred this one. A pretty decent amount of support considering it is so comfy. Don’t hesitate to purchase. True to size also in my opinion.

I have one of each. The support is enough for me to be able to wear this out of the house at the weekend without feeling self-conscious. It’s pretty comfy! However, I’ve worn the blue one about three times, and the fabric has pilled terribly. The grey one I’ve worn far more, and it’s held up perfectly!

The style at the front and the straps are absolutely perfect. It looks and feels great. However, this is then totally undermined by the back. It's far too narrow for a supposed sleep bra and, for the price being paid, I definitely expect more. I cannot wear underwired bras any more due to medical reasons. This bra has been very useful. But I just wish the back was slightly more substantial.
