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 Anne on
This tankini is comfortable and looks cute on. My husband loves it! I ordered my usual 38HH and the fit is about right, though of course the support is noticeably less firm than with a bra. The bottoms in Large equate to a size 16. I had to wait ages and pay a fortune in import duty, so it was such a relief when the suit fit so well.
The top is considerably longer than it looks on the model, even with the sides fully ruched - it's more like a minidress. I don't mind that much though as I'm not planning to lounge around in it, so it'll mostly be out of sight underwater!
I did like it but…..4 out of 5 stars

I was excited to receive this item and it looked pretty but once I tried it on I realised how long it was. It looked like a dress and I am 5 ft 9. The cup was a perfect fit so it was a shame I had to return it.

I loved the design but it’s too baggy and I’m sure when it’s wet it will be even baggier.

The top is so long it nearly reaches your knees- absolutely ridiculous
Bra section not as before - too small
